## detailed summary

[blended from two summaries which i fixed] In Uzbekistan, the C.I.A. extracted Leonid Pavel. Some prisoners joind the flight, but they were Bane and his men. They conquerd the plane and abducted Pavel. Another plane hookd on and pulld the CIA plane causing the wings to snap off. It crashd into a mountain, generating an illusion that Pavel died.
Eight years after Harvey Dent's death, (Dark Knight, 2008), Batman has not appeard to fight crime kuz cops led by Commissioner Gordon hav nearly eradicated violent and organized crime. Gordon held a resignation speech to reveal the truth about dent's murders at an event honoring Dent but pocketed it. he praised the guilty murderer.
bruce saw Selina Kyle steal a necklace from his vault, but she escaped. he finds dust indicating that she copied his fingerprints. She also abducted a congressman.
when Kyle gave Bruce's fingerprints to Stryver, Stryver refused to pay her. she used the congressman's stolen phone to alert the police to their location. Gordon and the police came to rescue the congressman who is not there. they battled and chased Stryver's men down into the sewers.
underground, Bane captured Gordon. then the villain Bane found his speech. Gordon escapesd but got shot while escaping. a cop John Blake found him. then he went and pursuaded bruce to return as Batman. when he agreed, Alfred quit.
Bane attackd the Gotham Stock Exchange. he used Bruce's fingerprints, which selena supplied, to invest in his name. this caused the loss of Bruce's money. [not lose control]
John Daggett partnerd with Bane to gain control of bruce's company Wayne Enterprises. Bruce sent Miranda Tate to keep full control out of Daggett's hands. [not like bad summaries that i fixd here for this and other issues].
bruce lost his wealth. and now discovers a new painful message: Alfred Pennyworth told bruce that Rachel Dawes preferd to marry Dent, before she died.
Following Selina Kyle underground, Batman dueld Bane. bane reveald that he was using Daggett's construction firms to dig and steal the weapons the company prduced. bane injured batman's back. batman lost his money and was now crippled too. how will he save gotham? also his company is weak too kuz he had invested in a clean energy project of fusion, but canceld it, kuz it could be modified to become a fusion weapon. bane sent him to an ancient underground prison, called the Pit. he heard the story of the one successful escape and that others failed. with batman imprisoned bane proceeds with his plan in gotham.
how will he save gotham now?
part 2
part 2
in gotham, Bane lured cops underground and detonated supports to block exits and trap them in tunnels. Bane also killd the Mayor. then he compelld Dr. Leonid Pavel, the abducted physicist, to convert the reactor core into a nuclear bomb. it was Wayne Enterprises' fusion reactor that Pavel converted. now used, bane killed him at a football field. Bane used the atom bomb as a threat to forbid leaving [not hostage for his demands nor isolate from outside] bane's men free the prisoners who started rioting. he annuld the hero image, that people had believed about Dent, by announcing Gordon's speech admitting the cover-up of Dent's murders [not hid "death"].
bane's men dragd the rich people to a sentencing trial. Dr. Jonathan Crane was judge who explained that they were guilty and now the trial is for punishment. their wealth is transferd from them to public funds. the once powerful now walkd on the crumbling ice [not across] to die "death by exile" when they fell through the ice into cold water.
an attempt to sneak Special Forces soldiers into the city fails. bane is monarch [not anarchy.]
in pit a fellow prisoner fixd bruce's spine [not recover]. Bruce re-traind himself for five months. after a failure, Bruce escaped from the pit.
batman returnd to Gotham the last day before the bomb will explode. only hours remain when he sent Blake, Gordon, Kyle, Lucius Fox [tech expert not alfred who quit] and Tate to stop the bomb. cops, led by brave blake, marched against Bane's forces and they battled. Batman dueld and overpowered Bane. Tate unexpectedly stabd Batman as revenge, due to he killed her pa ras, when he attacked [begins 2005]. she was Talia al Ghul. bane had aided and protected her in pit so she was loyal to Bane. also she was helping her pa's goal by using bomb to destroy Gotham like her father had tried but failed.
Gordon successfully alterd bomb to prevent remote detonation by signal so Talia leaves to detonate [not find] the bomb. before bane can kill batman, kyle killd Bane using the Batpod.
Batman flew the bat and chased Talia. when he tried to fly the bomb to the fusion chamber [not reactor], she remotely flooded it.
Batman shot her truck off the road, so it crashed and Talia died. he flew bomb, carried by the bat, far away over the bay where it exploded.
bruce wayne vanished. did he also die in the riots? his mansion become an orphanage.
fox noted that Bruce had fixed the Bat's autopilot so could jump out before explosion. later, at a cafe in italy, Alfred saw Bruce and Selina together. Blake found the Batcave. the end.

##### Alice wonderland

alice, 1951 [disney from both books] summary of video [with alice 1999 summary]

After school, by a river, Alice felt very bored due to a "very dry" history lesson. her older sister was reading aloud about england surrendering to William [from french normandy who became their king].

Alice sang about talking flowers and dressed Rabbits... and SAW one! a "white one was wearing a waistcoat." it spoke! when it checked the time! by pocket-clock! and quickly ran. She chased it into a rabbit hole, where suddenly she fell far... down, down, down. it ran through a tiny door. its Doorknob told Alice, "drink from that bottle," on a glass table. The fluid shrank her to the size for the door, which was locked.

the key appeared on the table, but she was now too small to reach it. The Doorknob told her to eat a cookie that grew her... too large. She started crying. her huge tears became a sea. The Doorknob said, "it has some fluid  inside." she drank the last drop and shrank small enuf to fall inside the bottle. it [containing her] floated and drifted to the keyhole. it opened wide so she flowed thru, and waves washed it ashore. On shore, a Dodo bird advised a group of animals to get dry by running.

Alice met the fat twins: Tweedledee and Tweedledum [book: looking glass]

who recite "The Walrus and the Carpenter" story.  she came to the White Rabbit's home... a house! Alice entered and grew so big that she got stuck inside a room. Bill the Lizard climbed down the chimney. [fan fiction, he sneezed and flew up out.] Alice ate a carrot [her arm was out the window] from its garden that shrank her until the height of a flower. she met  talking flowers [book: Looking Glass ch' 3] and bread-and-butterflies shaped like bread slices. The flowers SPOKE !! friendly. Alice sang "All in the Golden Afternoon". after the song,  they accuse her, and shout, "you're a weed, go away." kuz she was clearly not a flower and weeds use their water.

She met a Caterpillar who sat on a mushroom. she was 3 inches tall too. it told her advice about the mushroom [x she, it]. after that it became a butterfly and FLEW away. she broke off two pieces from opposite sides and nibbled a bit from one side which caused her first to stretch neck like a "serpent" ergo a bird accused, "serpent!" she nibbled the other bit that caused her to shrink very small. Finally Alice grew to her usual size. she put the pieces in her apron pockets.

Alice heard confusing directions from the Cheshire Cat who grinned. it disappeard! she entered the garden of the March Hare, who was celebrating his "unbirthday" with the Mad Hatter and the Dormouse. Alice left only to get lost in a forest. Cheshire Cat reappeard and directed her into the queen's  garden.

Alice saw Cards painting white roses red. Queen of Hearts n King came with a card army. they play croquet game using live flamingos to hit the balls that were live hedgehogs. card soldiers bent to be the arches.

Alice got  judged at trial and saw the Mad Hatter, the March Hare, and the Dormouse. The Cheshire Cat appeard and causd enough distraction to allow Alice to eat mushroom causing her to grow "gigantic", but... surprise! she shrunk to her normal size. the Queen commanded "Off with her head!" the cards chased al back to the Doorknob. Alice cant get thru the locked door but doorknob comforted her that she was "already on the other side. look!" she Looked through the keyhole, and saw herself asleep. the card soldiers came nearer, she calld, "Alice, wake up!" to her sleeping self... and awoke just in time. she and her sister walked away. the end.

\_\_\_Alice 1999 [i blended 3 summaries, a,b in c]: Stage fright caused Alice (Tina Majorino) to flee. she followed a white rabbit into a rabbit hole. it jumped through a "looking glass"  so she followed it. potions magicly shrink her to three inches and stretch her to ten feet tall. then she cried a sea of tears. she met odd beings: a Caterpillar, a Cheshire Cat, and the Queen of Hearts card who playd croquet with Alice. She also met a White Knight who was clumsy! [stolen from harry potter same year]. she got stuck in a vault.

later, she found a tree that had a door. she drank tea with a Mad Hatter.

she heard singing and talking flowers and listend to singing trees and to confidence advice from the caterpillar.
