Swan Song

Rating: 10/10 (22 July 2012)

Batman was always and will always be my favorite superhero, because he's not really super at all. There's no radioactive spider bite, no alien powers....he's just a guy who does his best to help those who cannot always help themselves. Sure, he's got all sorts of gadgets and gizmos to aid him on his journey, but the only real protection he has against the evils he encounters is an altruistic soul. He is willing to be whomever and whatever the people of his beloved city need him to be. Hero or villain, he knows only what's right and what's just....and that's what he clings to. I will forever cherish Christopher Nolan, David S. Goyer, Jonathan Nolan, Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Gary Oldman, Morgan Freeman, and everyone else involved for giving me the Batman that I have always imagined, the Batman that I love. The Dark Knight Trilogy will forever be Nolan's Opus, and "The Dark Knight Rises" is more than just the final chapter, it's a love letter to the fans.
