Dark Knight Rises is a great movie. It carries important messages too.

1) Those who claim to side with the mass and want to level the playing field usually have their own agenda.

2) Batman chooses to come to rescue even though no law requires him to do so. When charity comes out of ones own free will, it is a beautiful thing.

3) Collectivism is often a facade behind which chaos reign supreme.

I salute the superhero, Bruce Wayne, the "elite" who rises above all. The one with a real moral compass.

Besides, Christian Bale is worthy of man-crush.

For some reason the spammers favored this thread a bit, and when I deleted them the comment count got out of sync with the real number of comments. Ah, I see. It's because I failed to reset the comment count on the thread after the delete. OK, fixed I think. I'll post a dummy comment and delete it to be sure.

Batman probably has a high Google trends result.
