@Abhinav Menon Gordon says that the joker won, because he corrupted Harvey, the white knight, and that everything he was doing to clean the city of corruption and criminality would be in vain, since the joker only wanted to demonstrate that the kindest man it would be corrupted, and to break batman and gordon, it broke batman's soul and gordon's honesty.

[@anunaysanganal]

The dialogue where he says "People like to have their faith rewarded" and the camera pans to Fox smiling because Bruce honored his request of destroying that Sonar after its use. Its awesome

[@matchesmalone6792]

And at the same time it pans out to Alfred burning Rachel's letter because Bruce bet it all on that, to have a chance of stop being batman and lead his life in peace with Rachel, only to find out that Rachel chose Harvey, thus Alfred burning the letter and rewarding Bruce for his faith even though it's a lie. It's brilliant writing.

@JG the Faded Jedi Maybe, maybe not, maybe that and more. I dislike champion worship. Wielding great power for the common good is a very dangerous thing. Instead of acting in the shadows to save the ignorant rabble from doom, we should promote mass enlightenment. It might be less exciting for storytelling, but that balance nourishes the heart and calms the mind. And this movie, after all, also features the Joker explaining to Batman how he is the rabble's useful freak. But Batman then twisting that into an unsung-savior sacrifice theme is even worse. And saying that right now he needs to be the rabble's scapegoat is more of that bullshit. No, the ignorant rabble does not deserve any enemy image but themselves; a mirror shown. *Corruption is a grassroots movement!*

Gary Oldman's performance in this trilogy and especially this film is so overlooked. To me he was really the glue that held it all together and it's a damn shame that his portrayal of Gordon doesn't get nearly as much praise or attention as Ledger's Joker or Hardy's Bane. He was the most human and believable of all the characters and truly brought Gordon to life in a way that was never done before on screen. To me, Gary Oldman will always be the definitive Gordon.

[@sotsubreivaj]

Gary Oldman will always be the perfect example of what I think it's called a "character actor", the one that isn't in the red carpet, in the spotlight, the one who doesn't sell tickets, but one the greatest actors of all time.

[@LanceVanceDance84]

@@sotsubreivaj I dunno if I'd say he doesn't sell tickets, especially considering that in the last decade or so he's been widely recognized as one of (if not _the)_ greatest actors of all time and was really one of the only reasons most people saw Darkest Hour (for which he finally earned his long overdue Oscar), but I definitely agree with your overall point. Even when he's the main star of a film he never makes things about himself, but rather he lets his performance do the talking and has always shied away from the spotlight or falling into the whole paparazzi scene. In that sense he's always been the ideal actor in my eyes. With that being said, after seeing The Batman this year, I have to admit that Jeffrey Wright has done a great job at filling the massive shoes Oldman wore with his portrayal of Gordon and I'm very much looking forward to seeing what he does with the character next. I thought it'd be impossible, but thankfully they found an actor worthy of the task.

[@roshansreedhar4727]

Unpopular opinion: the character dynamic between Dent and Gordon in this movie is even more compelling than Batman and the joker

[@izjgxj4275]

The thing about this movie in particular but also the whole trilogy is that they got the best supporting actors for every role. Like just look at Gary Oldman, Michael Caine and Morgan Freeman. And I mean he was not as prominent in TDK but Cillian Murphy is an amazing actor too. This is one of the best movies of all time and a big part of the credit goes to Heath Ledger and his astonishing performance but it wouldn't come close to the masterpiece it is without all these incredible minor characters. Honestly it's insane to me that the new Batman somehow managed to get close to this one. I'll be honest the new Gordon is good and all but not one of them comes even close to the supporting actors Nolan had for his trilogy. Jeffrey Wright and Andy Serkis are great actors in their own right but to me at least Oldman and Caine are just of a different caliber. Hard to compare anyone to some of the greatest of all time.

When i first saw this movie as a kid, i was asking the same question in my head as Gordon’s son asks him.

It’s amazing how the director and screenwriters can capture the exact thoughts of both a small kid and a mature adult in the same scene. It’s also a life lesson to be learnt. Sometimes good people don’t get what they deserve but in the end the sacrifice or martyr proves that fundamental principles like nobility, honor and sheer willpower always defeat evil.

Dark Side: This Decision is Wrong, Batman Claiming that he committed the Crimes That Harvey Dent really committed is going to be regretful, this Lie of Harvey Dent being a Hero will one day eventually fall apart, and Gotham will have no other Hero to save them than Batman. because Batman is the REAL HERO!!!!

@@milanpenk9537 neither the criminals nor the civilians pulled their respective triggers, and therefore we should have more faith in themselves. By lying to the people, Batman showed he doesn't trust them and has no faith in them. And if people rely on only one person with high morality to hold their own ideals in tact, instead of trying to hold themselves together to ensure some form of justice remained, then they don't deserve the gift it was given to them. For me, only those who managed to remain with their integrity after the truth was revealed were worthy of being saved.

You can watch all superhero movies and no one has this level of complexity realism and mature themes throught the film. This is truly one of the best movies ever made.

[@yasersiddiqui8997]

This scene I think perfectly encapsulates why Nolan was the best director to ever direct batman. He really understood the core of what makes the character special better than anyone else. Sure he made some mistakes along the way, like blowing up the league of shadows and stuff, but for the most part he translated batman's core ideas to the screen. The first was the no killing, which Burton and Snyder both ignored, but also the fact that batman is more than a man. He is a symbol. This scene perfectly demonstrates that. If he was just a guy fighting crime, he would have tried to do everything he could to not connect it to him. But he knew that someone had to take the blame. Harvey couldn't, the city looked up to him too much. Gotham still needed a police commissioner (that wasn't corrupt) so batman knew it was him. He, unlike Gordon or dent, didn't have a face. He was a symbol. Previously, that symbol was a nightmare of criminals and a beacon of hope to the innocent of Gotham, because that was what they needed. But priorities changed, and now that name had to be ridiculed and hated so that dents legacy could be intact, free to inspire Gotham in a way the batman never could. As the movie said, dent was the white knight, the one that had to remain pure for Gotham, but batman was the one that was whatever Gotham needed him to be. A dark knight. In the next movie, he once again must inspire and protect Gotham when Harveys legacy is tarnished and can't do that anymore. Nolan understood this better than anyone, which is why I believe he is the greatest director of batman, and why I think this movie is the greatest of all time. I hope Matt reeves can reach this level of understanding of the batman.

[@billytessio6326]

I think Nolan also understands the notion that one can’t be the hero AND have the glory. In that sense, Bruce’s virtue is truer because he doesn’t stand to gain a public relations benefit for his work as Batman. He willingly tarnishes the symbol to secure Gotham’s future.
