RISE
It's cool how culturally relevant the Dark Knight's story is to today's socioeconomic climate. And it's personal. It's real. You feel the recession on Bruce's shoulders, his own guilt, the madness of all the empty faces, the despair of the millions displaced by corporate hegemony. While Bruce is part (financially) of the 1%, his own personal tragedy is what really compels him to fight for the underdog. To use his wealth and influence to dish out the pain on the powerful and corrupt who deserve it. Tragedy knows no economic bounds, and after many years of internal struggle, the socioeconomic climate requires a hero to rise again.
I'm very exited for Nolan's final film of the series.
