It would have been impossible to do without showing their faces, and pointless to do if he didn't.
Why not show their faces?

If this movie is part of the DC Universe, then where's Superman?
Honestly, I didn't really like TDKR all that much.

I also found it odd that the admission was cheaper than the pseudo-IMAX featured in theater chains.

I read that issue of Knightfall last week in the bookstore (where Bats has his back broken). I had trouble even getting through it, it was a STUPID issue... neither the writer or the artist had any sense of how to tell a story so that it was emotionally engaging. I tried to skim through the rest of the issues in the book format and just found it really bad.
in that sense, I think the movie was better than the comic, at least for that particular scene.
I disagree. Fables is damned good, and there's others out there nowadays.
Not sure about Batman, though.
The fighting was clunky. The movie was dark, intense. And in my view, it should never have been made. At least they spared us the gruesome back-breaking scene depicted in the comic. It wasn't as gruesome as that, but it was there. And there have been more disgusting movies than this by far. But at least those had low box-office takes.
My biggest issue was the film was that it really had nothing to do with Batman or anything really related to what I'd typically associate with a typical Batman adventure. Basically, the film just felt too..big? Like the cranked up the action sequences and the severity of the threat of the films' predecessor up times one-thousand, to the point to where it just felt silly and completely over Batman's head. Also, there was very little interconnectivity between the characters throughout most of the film, as if they tried to incorporate and compress so many different elements and avenues into a limited allotted time.
It's really hard for me to give specific examples without spoilers.

In the movie, Batman just kind of bounced off of Bane's knee. It was like the audience is supposed to understand that something hideous just happened to Bats, without us actually being subjected to the full hideousness of the scene. But in the comic, from what I saw online, that scene was very graphic.

Not really. not in the issue I saw.I've seen far far more graphic, as I've said, in many other comics. Unless you're an 8 year old kid, I guess.
Besides if it had been far more graphic in the movie, then it would have been even less believable when everything is fixed through what amounts to a chiropractic move.
I think this entire thread is already full of spoilers, and not even using the SPOILER tag.
However, if you wish to post some with the tag, it's [ SPOILER ] spoiler here [ /SPOILER ] without the spaces.
