What's left behind the scenes
- Christopher Nolan was the first director to complete a full trilogy of Batman films, but the second to direct a trilogy of films about a single superhero (after Sam Raimi with his Spider-Man films).
- Christian Bale was the first actor to play Batman / Bruce Wayne in three films. By 2011, Kevin Conroy had played the role in seven animated films (including 'Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker,' 2000).
- Cinematographer Wally Pfister was interested in shooting the film entirely in IMAX format, as both he and Christopher Nolan strongly dislike shooting in 3D. As a result, the film contains approximately 50 minutes of IMAX footage, while the rest was shot using a combination of 35mm and 70mm.
- Jessica Biel, Gemma Arterton, Kate Mara, Charlotte Riley, Keira Knightley, and Anne Hathaway auditioned for the role of Selina Kyle. After the first audition, Hathaway, Biel, and Mara were considered the main contenders. Ultimately, Anne Hathaway landed the role.
- Naomi Watts, Rachel Weisz, and Marion Cotillard were considered for the role of Miranda Tate, which was ultimately played by Marion Cotillard. The actress began filming two months after giving birth to her son, whom she named Marcel.
- According to Gary Oldman, Christopher Nolan personally revealed the film's ending to the actors to prevent any information leaks.
- One of the reasons Christopher Nolan cast Tom Hardy as Bane was his performance in 'RocknRolla' (2008). Hardy, however, believed he was cast because of his role in 'Bronson' (2008). He only learned upon arriving on set that Nolan had never seen that film.
- Approximately 10,000 extras were used in the scene filmed at Heinz Field. Several Pittsburgh Steelers players played the roles of football players, including Hines Ward, who played himself.
- Chloe Grace Moretz and Jennifer Lawrence auditioned for the role that was ultimately played by Juno Temple.
- Anne Hathaway, who played Catwoman, was also considered for the role of Felicia Hardy in "The Amazing Spider-Man" (2012) in 2010, when Sam Raimi was still the director (he intended to use Vulture and Black Cat in the film).
- The character of Bane in this film is more devout, and he is closer to his comic book counterpart than in "Batman & Robin" (1997), where he was portrayed as a foolish henchman. In the comics, Bane is a very dangerous strategist, and he is, without exaggeration, an equal opponent to Batman.
- According to Christopher Nolan, Bane was chosen as Batman's main adversary in order to "test Batman both mentally and physically."
- To prepare for the role of Selina Kyle, Anne Hathaway did physical exercises, dancing, and learned various stunts five days a week. She admitted that this was the most physically demanding preparation for a role in her entire career.
- To prepare for the role of Bane, Tom Hardy gained 30 pounds and also studied various martial arts.
- After the release of "The Dark Knight" (2008), Aaron Eckhart expressed his interest in returning to the project as Harvey Dent. Christopher Nolan stated that Dent definitely died and that his death had serious consequences for all of Gotham.
- Composer Hans Zimmer collected recordings of ritual chants online to include them in the film's soundtrack.
- Anne Hathaway starred in "Alice in Wonderland" (2010) alongside Michael Gough, who played Alfred in previous Batman films. The role in "Alice" was his last before his death. Tim Burton, also known for "Batman" (1989) and "Batman Returns" (1992), directed "Alice in Wonderland".
- Marion Cotillard starred in "Big Fish" (2003), directed by Tim Burton, who also directed "Batman" (1989) and "Batman Returns" (1992). Danny DeVito, who played the Penguin in "Batman Returns" (1992), also appeared in this film.
- This film reunited Tom Hardy, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Michael Caine, Marion Cotillard, and Cillian Murphy, who all starred together in "Inception" (2010).
- This is the fifth project in a row in which Christopher Nolan has worked with Michael Caine. The other films are: "Batman Begins" (2005), "The Prestige" (2006), "The Dark Knight" (2008), and "Inception" (2010).
- Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman, Cillian Murphy, and Gary Oldman – each of them appeared in three Batman films. Only Michael Gough and Pat Hingle did the same.
- Christopher Nolan chose Bane as the main villain. Coincidentally, the name of one of Bane's creators in the comics is Graham Nolan.
- Anne Hathaway chose Hedy Lamarr as the basis for her role, as she was the original inspiration for the Catwoman character.
- Tickets for the premiere showing of the film in an IMAX theater in New York were sold out six months before the screening.
- During a scene at the football game, you can see a player wearing a sweater with the name Ravenstahl on it. Luke Ravenstahl is the mayor of Pittsburgh, where some scenes of the film were shot.
- Tom Hardy is technically the fifth actor to portray Bane. In 'Batman & Robin' (1997), Michael Reid Mackay played the serial killer Antonio Diego, who was selected for the 'Venom' experiment and transformed into Bane, who was then played by wrestler Jeep Swenson. The remaining two actors voiced Bane in animated films. These are Hector Elizondo in 'Batman and the Mystery of the Batwoman' (2003) and Carlos Alazraqui in 'Justice League: Doom' (2012).
- Anne Hathaway said that during the audition, she thought she would be playing Harley Quinn, an intern at Arkham Asylum and the Joker's right-hand woman. Only after talking to Christopher Nolan did she learn that she was auditioning for the role of Catwoman.
- Christopher Nolan said that the main theme of the film was pain. For 'Batman Begins' (2005), it was fear, and in 'The Dark Knight' (2008), it was chaos.
- In David S. Goyer's original interpretation of the story, Two-Face (Harvey Dent) was supposed to be Batman's main adversary. Initially, in the end of 'The Dark Knight' (2008), the Joker was supposed to scar Harvey Dent in the courtroom, thus initiating the third film. Dent's death at the end of the second film appeared in the script instead of the story's foundation of their broken relationship and the consequences that stemmed from it.
- Tom Hardy accepted the role of Bane without reading the script. He was verbally explained that he would have unprecedented access to extensive stunt training and equipment.
- Christopher Nolan offered James Newton Howard to write the music for the film in collaboration with Hans Zimmer, as he had done in "Batman Begins" (2005) and "The Dark Knight" (2008), but Howard felt that after Nolan and Zimmer's collaboration on "Inception" (2010), he would be a "fifth wheel" on the project.
- According to producer Emma Thomas, the filmmakers chose Pittsburgh as the filming location to emphasize the vast size and scale of Gotham, and also because "they literally shot every inch" in Chicago, where the previous two films were shot.
- Out of respect for Heath Ledger, the Joker was not mentioned once throughout the entire film.
- Christopher Nolan was so keen for Marion Cotillard to play Miranda that he even adjusted the filming schedule to accommodate her pregnancy. Cotillard began filming two months after giving birth.
- In the comics, Bane wears a device that contains a steroid enhancing his combat abilities. In the film, the device he wears contains a painkiller, as the character experiences chronic pain.
- The filmmakers noted that the film was strongly influenced by Batman comics such as The Dark Knight Returns (an older Batman operates in the future Gotham), Knightfall (Bane physically and morally overwhelms Batman), and No Man's Land (Gotham turns into a territory of the criminal world).
- Leila de Meza turned down the role of young Talia al Ghul.
- Although the Joker is not directly mentioned in the film, there may be a reference to his past. Throughout the film, Selina Kyle tries to obtain "Clean Slate" – a program that erases all data about a person from any information database in the world. It is quite possible that the clown-killer once used this program as well, since in the film "The Dark Knight" (2008), the police cannot identify the criminal, citing a complete lack of data.
- Selina Kyle is never referred to by the name of her famous alter ego – Catwoman – in the film, and appears in newspaper articles and police files as The Cat. This corresponds to the original incarnation of Selina, who was a thief and, before becoming Catwoman, was nicknamed The Cat. However, Selina Kyle is mentioned as Catwoman in various marketing materials when she is wearing her costume.
- Tom Hardy based the voice of Bane on Bartley Gorman (1944—2002). An Irish traveler who was an undefeated boxing champion of Great Britain and Ireland in bare-knuckle boxing, he was known as the King of the Gypsies. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the actor said: “The accent for Bane came from a man named Bartley Gorman, a bare-knuckle boxing champion. His Romani accent is very specific, so it was very difficult to understand. But once you get used to it, it’s easy to talk like that, as it seemed to me.”
- On the television show "Saturday Night Live", Anne Hathaway, who plays Selina Kyle, appeared as Katie Holmes and talked about her role in "Batman Begins" (2005).
- The film was shot in Pittsburgh under the working title Magnus Rex.
- According to costume designer Lindy Hemming, she spent two years devising Bane's costume. It was based on a Swedish army jacket and a frock coat from the French Revolution, to make Bane look like both a dictator and a revolutionary at the same time.
- Batman's costume consisted of 110 separate pieces. The base layer was made of polyester mesh, due to its breathability and hygroscopicity, qualities used by the military and high-tech sports apparel manufacturers. Some parts made of flexible polyurethane were attached to the mesh to form the overall armor shell. Carbon fiber plates were placed inside the suit on the legs, chest, and abdomen. The cowl was sculpted to the shape of Christian Bale's face.
- Selina Kyle's suit was made of two layers of spandex with a polyurethane coating.
- Graham Churchyard, head of costume development, created a three-dimensional model of Tom Hardy's face and skull to create Bane's mask.
- When developing Batman's new mode of transport (the Bat), production designer Nathan Crowley approached it as if it were a real military project. He emphasized the need for it to “look organic alongside the Batmobile and Batpod.” He added design elements from military aviation, including the Harrier jump jet, the Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey tiltrotor, and the Boeing AH-64 Apache helicopter.
- To make the Bat fly, it was attached to cranes and helicopters with cables, and also mounted on a specially built vehicle with hydraulic control to simulate movement.
- Bane's musical theme features the words “deshi basara,” which translates from Arabic as “to rise up.”
- In the scene where Bane enters the stock exchange trading floor, he is wearing a backpack with the DCS courier services logo.
- Tom Hardy, with a height of 175 cm, had to wear three-inch platform shoes to make his character Bane appear as tall as Christian Bale, Morgan Freeman, and Michael Caine.
- When Selina Kyle disappears from the rooftop, Batman says, "So that's what that feels like." The quote is taken directly from the Kingdom Come comic book. And even the circumstances under which it is spoken are similar.
- The character of Jenn, played by Juno Temple, was modeled after Selina Kyle's roommate, Holly, from the Batman: Year One comic.
- During the motorcycle chase scene, Bane wears a red helmet with a black visor, as well as a brown jacket. This is the original costume of Jason Todd, a character in a red hood from the Batman comic book series, a former fierce opponent of the Joker.
- Christopher Nolan stated that he was influenced by Charles Dickens' "A Tale of Two Cities," and this is reflected in the film. Several names from the novel appear in the movie, including Stryver (Burn Gorman) and Barsad (Josh Stewart).
- Diego Klattenhoff was considered for the role of a police officer but had to decline due to scheduling conflicts with the television series "Homeland" (2011).
- The prison known as The Pit, where Bruce Wayne is held after his first encounter with Bane, is designated as a place where those afflicted with the plague were once isolated to prevent infection of the general population. In ancient times, such places were known as lazarets, named after the biblical Lazarus, a leper whom Jesus raised from the dead. This is an interpretation of Lazarus Pit, which in the original Batman comics is where Ra's al Ghul bathed to maintain his immortality.
- Christopher Nolan reworked much of Bane's costume and appearance. He rejected a full-face mask, which he felt gave Bane the look of a professional wrestler. Nolan felt that Bane's comic book costume would look too cartoonish in the film and also wanted to avoid comparisons with the version of Bane in "Batman & Robin" (1997).
- MacFarlane Toys, a company that produces a series of professional athlete figures, made a figure of football player Hines Ward dressed in the uniform of the Gotham "Rogue" team, the same one he wore in the film.
- During the fight scene between Bane and Batman in the sewers, Bane lifts Batman above his head and throws him onto his knee. This is a direct parallel to the first battle between Batman and Bane in the comics, where Bane broke Batman's back during the "Knightfall" storyline.
- Patrick Leahy, a Vermont state senator, played a cameo role as a member of the Wayne Enterprises board. Leahy is a big Batman fan and also appeared in cameo roles in "Batman & Robin" (1997) and "The Dark Knight" (2008).
- A close-up on portable radios reveals that the Gotham City Police Department uses the DC Comics logo.
- Leonardo DiCaprio, Ryan Gosling, and Mark Ruffalo were considered for the role of John Blake before Joseph Gordon-Levitt was cast. DiCaprio was previously considered to play Robin in "Batman Forever" (1995), but the role went to Chris O'Donnell.
- This is the second Batman film without the word "Batman" in the title.
- When discussing Bruce Wayne as a recluse, Daggett remarks: "Everyone knows Wayne often locks himself away there, forgetting to clip his nails and urinating in a jar." This is an obvious nod to the reclusive and eccentric billionaire Howard Hughes. There was a time when Christopher Nolan was considering directing a Howard Hughes biopic.
- Extensive work to restore the field was scheduled at the Pittsburgh stadium where filming took place, coinciding with the planned shoot. Explosive charges were placed to simulate the points where the field collapses in the film. Filming at the stadium was made possible by executive producer Thomas Tull, as he is a co-owner of the Pittsburgh Steelers football team.
- The character of Barsad (Bane's right-hand man), played by Josh Stewart, is a sniper and heavy weapons expert. He is consistently shown wearing a bulletproof vest and a red scarf. This character is reminiscent of Batman villain Deadshot, whose adaptation for the big screen co-writer David S. Goyer had expressed interest in.
- On July 20, 2012, during an evening showing of the film in Aurora, Colorado, a gunman entered the theater and opened fire. James Holmes killed 12 people and wounded over 58. He was arrested and prosecuted for his actions. Following the incident, several actors and crew members, including Christopher Nolan, Christian Bale, Anne Hathaway, and Gary Oldman, publicly expressed their grief. Their appearances and the film's premiere in France were also canceled. Warner Brothers studio decided not to show the film during its opening weekend, and instead continue screenings from the following Monday, out of respect for the victims. A few days later, Christian Bale visited survivors of the attack in the hospital.
- The doctor reading a list of Bruce Wayne’s degenerative bodily injuries (lack of cartilage, scar tissue, etc.) and the moment featuring a mechanical element in his knee are reminiscent of the comic book Kingdom Come, where an aging Bruce Wayne requires an exoskeleton to move due to years of physical wear and tear on his body.
- The orphanage where Blake grew up and which he visits in the film is called St. Swithin's. In England, St. Swithin's Day is celebrated on July 15th, and according to legend, whatever the weather is on that day, the same weather will prevail for the next 40 days (especially if it's rain). Water and rain are common motifs in Christopher Nolan's films.
- Each film in Nolan's trilogy is 12 minutes longer than the previous one. 'Batman Begins' (2005) is 140 minutes long, 'The Dark Knight' (2008) is 152 minutes long, and 'The Dark Knight Rises' (2012) is 164 minutes long.
- The building used for the Gotham Stock Exchange scenes is actually the J. P. Morgan building at the corner of Broad Street and Wall Street in Lower Manhattan. It is directly across from the active New York Stock Exchange, which can be seen in several shots in the background.
- During the stadium scene, many different shots of the crowd are shown. In one of them, a fan is holding a cardboard cutout and painted black bars. Blackgate Prison is an integral part of the Batman comics (as are its inhabitants, including Bane and Catwoman), and it is also mentioned in this film. Although, it could simply be a black fence symbolizing protection. Black and gold are the colors of the Pittsburgh Steelers, who play their games at Heinz Field.
- Although it didn't make the final cut of the film, the battle scene on the steps of Gotham City Hall included an explosion that swept all still-living combatants off the steps. When the explosion itself was being filmed, it triggered the fire alarm, resulting in a complete halt to filming for over 30 minutes while they tried to resolve the issue with the arriving police and firefighters.
- Christopher Nolan actively used masks in this film. Batman, Bane, Catwoman – all wear masks. Bruce Wayne has a collection of African tribal masks at Wayne Manor, where he and Blake first talk. Miranda Tate hosts a masquerade ball.
- In promotional interviews, Tom Hardy stated that the most difficult part of the film was shooting the fight scenes. It wasn’t difficult physically, but because he had been a big fan of Batman growing up. The actor said, “It felt like I was beating up my childhood hero.” However, he also stated that despite his reverence for Batman, when Christopher Nolan yelled “action!”, the actor began to deliver blows as hard as he could.
- Alfred mentions that he ordered Fernet Branca during his trips to Italy. This is an amaro – a type of bitter herbal liqueur.
- Miranda Nolan, cousin of director Christopher Nolan and screenwriter Jonathan Nolan, played a cameo role as a gossiping maid about Bruce Wayne.
- John Nolan – uncle of director Christopher Nolan and screenwriter Jonathan Nolan, and father of actress Miranda Nolan – played the role of Douglas Fredericks, a member of the board of Wayne Enterprises, as he did in “Batman Begins” (2005). He previously appeared in Christopher Nolan's debut film, “Following” (1998).
- The color of the Batman statue at its unveiling strongly resembles Batman's blue suit, as it is traditionally depicted in the comics.
- Bob Hoskins wanted to play Oswald Cobblepot, the notorious criminal genius known as the Penguin, but the director turned him down.
- According to screenwriter David S. Goyer, Warner Bros. executives had several ideas for the film, and one of them involved The Riddler, to be played by Leonardo DiCaprio, as the villain.
- John Daggett is a reference to the unscrupulous businessman Roland Daggett, who inspired the Clayface villain from the animated series "Batman" (1992-1995).
- Nestor Carbonell previously played a character named Batmanuel in the series "The Tick" (2001–2002).
- Anne Hathaway admitted that when she learned her true role, she was initially frightened, because she feared she wouldn't be able to compare to Michelle Pfeiffer, who played the role in 'Batman Returns' (1992).
- When Blake tells Wayne about Gordon seeing an entire army of Bane hiding in the Gotham sewers, Wayne asks what the police think about it. Blake replies that Gordon was asked if he had seen a giant crocodile in the sewers. This is a reference to Killer Croc, another character in the Batman universe. Croc is a half-man, half-crocodile who lives in the Gotham sewers.
- When Batman chases Bane for the first time after the stock exchange robbery, a senior police officer tells his younger colleague: 'Sit back and relax. You're about to see a show.' This is a nearly direct quote from the comic Batman: The Dark Knight Returns.
- As in 'Batman Returns' (1992) and 'Batman & Robin' (1997), the villainous role is played by an actress nominated for an Academy Award. Michelle Pfeiffer ('Batman Returns') was nominated for 'Dangerous Liaisons' (1988), 'The Fabulous Baker Boys' (1989), and 'The Age of Innocence' (1993). Uma Thurman ('Batman & Robin') was nominated for 'Pulp Fiction' (1994). Anne Hathaway was nominated for 'Rachel Getting Married' (2008). Marion Cotillard, who played the role of Miranda, won an Oscar for 'La Vie en Rose' (2007).
- The quote that Commissioner Gordon reads over Bruce Wayne's grave is taken from the ending of Charles Dickens' novel 'A Tale of Two Cities'. It is spoken by Sydney Carton as he voluntarily sacrifices himself in place of Charles Darnay, the husband of the woman he loved. As Carton ascends the guillotine, he imagines Paris reborn through revolution. The novel, set during the French Revolution, raises the theme of class struggle, similar to 'The Dark Knight Rises'.
- Christian Bale and Michael Caine spent several weeks at Wollaton Hall (Nottingham) during the filming of Wayne Manor, but Christopher Nolan ultimately selected only one scene with Bale as Batman (a silhouette on the roof) and another with Caine at the grave.
- When Bane tears the photo of Harvey Dent in half, he does so precisely down the middle of Harvey’s face, recalling his transformation into Two-Face at the end of "The Dark Knight" (2008).
- The scenes with the Pit, Bane’s prison, were filmed in the city of Jodhpur (Rajasthan, India). In the comics, Batman visited India to learn to control his pain.
- According to the filmmakers, the line “What a lovely voice” was improvised by Tom Hardy. As was the line by Bruce Wayne, “It’s not true!”, when Catwoman says she regrets that Bruce lost his fortune. That was an improvisation by Christian Bale.
- Although the fate of the Joker is not revealed in the film, his location is mentioned in passing. He is a solitary inhabitant of the restored Arkham Asylum, kept in solitary confinement as punishment for his crimes so that he has no one to “play” with.
- Towards the end of the film, when Blake is exploring Batman's shelter, a blue stripe is visible on his black jacket (down the middle of the back). This is reminiscent of the character known as Nightwing, who the first Robin eventually became.
- This is the first Batman film in which he does not drive the Batmobile. He uses the Batpod and 'The Bat' (a flying vehicle). Although slightly modified Batmobiles do appear in the film, driven by Bane’s henchmen (painted in desert camouflage) when they steal them from the Wayne Enterprises Applied Sciences department. So, whether the Batmobile doesn’t appear in the film is debatable.
- Bane has a triangular-shaped scar on the side of his head, best seen during the stock exchange scene. Miranda Tate has the same scar on her back – visible during the love scene with Bruce. This hints at her affiliation with the League of Shadows and her true identity as Talia al Ghul.
- The villain Ra's al Ghul (Liam Neeson), who dies at the end of the first film in the trilogy, appears before Bruce Wayne’s eyes, constantly asserting his immortality, only to reveal that he is a hallucination. This is a nod to Ra’s al Ghul from the comics, where the character is immortal thanks to the use of the Lazarus Pit.
- At the charity ball, Miranda Tate says, “If you want to maintain balance in the world, investments are necessary.” In 'Batman Begins' (2005), Ra's al Ghul states that the League of Shadows' mission is to maintain balance in the world.
- When Cillian Murphy first appears as the judge delivering a sentence, he is dressed in a tattered coat. It seems straw is sticking out of his shoulders. This is an obvious nod to his alter ego, Scarecrow.
- At the end of the film, there is a subtle hint at the true nature of Miranda Tate, after Bruce apologizes for being unable to get her out of the city. She tells Bruce, “Do what’s necessary.” Her father, Ra's al Ghul, repeatedly mocked Bruce for lacking the “courage to do what’s necessary” in the film *Batman Begins* (2005).
- In all three of Christopher Nolan’s Batman films, Batman’s gauntlets with spikes prove decisive in the fight against the main villain. They destroy Ra's al Ghul’s sword in *Batman Begins* (2005), disarm the Joker in *The Dark Knight* (2008), and damage Bane’s mask in *The Dark Knight Rises* (2012).
- After John Blake offers to give Bruce Wayne a ride when he is left without a vehicle, Blake asks Bruce why he wears a mask (when he transforms into Batman). And closer to the end of the film, he tells Batman that he is perfectly comfortable fighting crime without hiding his face. This is a nod to the Robin costume in the comics, which features only a small eye mask while leaving most of the face uncovered.
- Joseph Gordon-Levitt became the first Robin to never wear a Robin costume, and the first actor with a similar role in a Batman film whose alter ego is not Dick Grayson.
- The surname of the sole survivor of the football field crash, 'WARD', is a reference to Burt Ward, who played Batman's sidekick Robin in the 1966 'Batman' television series.
- In the film, Batman's headquarters is the Batcave, located beneath Bruce Wayne's mansion, which Batman uses as a base of operations after the film 'Batman Begins' (2005).
- During the stadium collapse, Bane utters the phrase 'Let the game begin.' The Riddler says the same line in the finale of Joel Schumacher's 'Batman Forever' (1995).
- The time in the film shifts abruptly, moving from day (during the raid on Gotham's stock exchange, which is meant to occur during business hours) to night (during the subsequent chase scene).
- When Bruce Wayne meets Fox at his desk, his hands alternate between being on top of and resting on the cane itself.
- The river changes its state from frozen to liquid and back to frozen during transitions between scenes.
- When Selina blows up the barricade in front of the tunnel entrance, she folds her glasses. In the next scene, her glasses are back on.
- Throughout the film, the Gotham City Police Department uniforms and vehicles display both 'GPD' and 'GCPD' markings.
- During the scene at Wayne Manor, the building is visible as being made of limestone. However, during several scenes inside, red bricks can be seen through the windows. These scenes were clearly filmed in a different location or on a set.
- When Bane's men steal the CIA plane, the fuselage appears noticeably smaller in the street scene than it does inside.
- During the stadium scene, the stands appear full when the camera shoots from the field and stands, but aerial shots reveal empty sections.
- During the final chase, the heroes pass by a Jos. A. Bank clothing store at least three times.
- At the beginning of the film, when Selina Kyle examines Wayne’s desk, a photograph of Rachel is next to a photograph of Bruce’s parents. When Miranda Tate later examines the same desk, the photograph of Rachel is different.
- S/T chalk marks can be seen in the scene of the police and robbers' confrontation on Wall Street. They were made so that the actors playing police officers knew where to stand before filming began.
- After the scene where Bane’s sniper goes into the sewer and Commissioner Gordon begins the chase, an explosion occurs. The explosion happens through a manhole, and a police officer (on the left) clearly has fire retardant coating on his face.
- When Bruce Wayne checked his computer in the Batcave for the first time, the word “heist” was misspelled in one of the articles about Selina Kyle. Instead, it was written as “hiest”.
- Throughout the trilogy, it's noticeable that when Batman is in his mask, he has a thick layer of black makeup around his eyes. When he returns his updated vehicle to the cave for the first time, he speaks to Alfred without the mask, and no makeup is visible.
- 3000 police officers were trapped underground for three months. However, when they are released, none of them show any signs of hair growth.
- When Bruce stands to leave after meeting with Fox in his office, Bruce says “no” before his lips even begin to move.
- During the stock exchange takeover, Bane's men immediately start shooting as soon as they enter. It’s noticeable that their machine guns aren’t firing, but the sound of gunfire is still heard, and bullets are seen ricocheting off the monitors.
- In the stock exchange scene, one of Bane's men puts a laptop, onto which he was uploading information, into a bag. In the next shot, he does it again.
- When Bruce and Fox meet in Fox's office, before showing the 'Bat' (the aircraft), a book on the chair next to Bruce changes its position between shots.
- As Bane makes his way to the reactor bunker, numerous wall fragments fly off, ricocheting off his mercenary.
- After Bane and his men attack the stock exchange, barriers are set up on the streets to prevent vehicles from passing. However, the one we see is initially facing away from the stock exchange. But when Bane and his men leave on motorcycles, the barriers are turned in the opposite direction, allowing Bane to use them as ramps.
- When Bane's team blows up the tail of the CIA plane, a bulkhead is visible across the entire opening, while from inside the plane, the passageway is completely open and the sky is visible.
- When the entire Gotham City Police Department and Bane's mercenaries prepared for the start of the battle (on Wall Street), as the camera shows Bane's men, a member of the film crew is visible on the left side of the screen. He appears there for a moment, but can be distinguished by the walkie-talkie around his neck.
- In some scenes, the microphone cable for Bane is visible.
- During the fight between the police and Bane's mercenaries, the camera is reflected in the glass doors of the stock exchange.
- During the scene with the stock market, the camera pulls back, and a banner with the inscription NYC (New York City) comes into frame.
- At one point, a sign for the Wall Street subway station can be seen in Gotham.
- When Batman and Catwoman are on the rooftop, distinctive Los Angeles landmarks are visible: the U.S. Bank Tower and the One Wilshire data center.
- When the Gotham City Police Department apprehends the prisoners released by Bane, a NYC (New York City) banner is visible in the background.
- When mercenaries seize Gotham, several bridges are blown up. Some of these are suspension bridges, and a small section in the very middle is destroyed. Minimal engineering knowledge would reveal that the stability of such a bridge can only be guaranteed by the tension of the supporting cables, which extend from the tops of the support towers. Nevertheless, a section of the bridge sufficiently far from the tower has not yet collapsed, and nothing is holding it up anymore. After the cable was severed, the entire section of the bridge behind the tower should have collapsed.
- In the film, a new fusion reactor developed by Wayne Enterprises is turned into a weapon, despite prior concerns about new technologies falling into the wrong hands. However, the discovery of fusion energy was not necessary to create such a weapon. The fundamental principle of fusion has been used in fusion devices for decades. The weapon in the film is described in more detail as a neutron bomb – a thermonuclear weapon that releases a powerful stream of radiation upon detonation, but has a small explosive yield. It should also be noted that such a weapon, with the 4-megaton charge power specified by Dr. Pavlov, would also leave behind deadly radiation throughout the coastal zone, even though it detonated in the sea 6 miles from the shore. Furthermore, neutron bombs are based on fission, not fusion, because they rely on the radioactive products obtained from fission when scattering radiation into the environment. The fusion process produces a significantly smaller flow of radiation than fission, while using fewer radioactive materials. It is quite possible that Bane's mention of this weapon as a neutron bomb is either a slip of the tongue or a slight exaggeration.
- After rescuing Selina from Bane’s mercenaries on the rooftop, Batman returns to the Batcave via aircraft, followed by a scene where Alfred tells him about a letter, and then leaves. When Bruce Wayne returns from prison and rescues Fox (with Selina’s help), Fox asks where he left his aircraft. It turns out it’s parked on the roof of a building, not in the cave. It's likely that earlier in the film, Batman flew it to meet Selina in the subway, but we aren’t shown how he got there.
- Fox could not know the hour or minute when the nuclear bomb would explode, as he did not know when the countdown was initiated. Nevertheless, he was present during the reactor activation and could have had fairly accurate assumptions.
- Midway through the film, there are shots of the Batmobile slowly moving along a snow-covered street. Four rear wheels are visible, but the tracks behind it show only two. However, considering that the Batmobile is a real vehicle built for the film (not special effects or a fake overlay on another car), it's possible the car only leaves tracks at low speeds – a six-wheeled vehicle would likely be ineffective when driving slowly through the city).
- During the shootout in the alley between police officers and terrorists, after Selina meets Stryver in the bar, one member of the SWAT team already has a bullet hole in the back of his vest, where a sniper will shoot him shortly after.
- When Selina fights the thugs on the roof, and Batman comes to her aid, she initially wears high-heeled shoes, which are then replaced with flat-soled footwear (particularly noticeable when she runs towards the 'Bat'), despite the previous scene with Daggett emphasizing her heels.
- During the scene at the Gotham City stadium, there is a moment when the UPMC (University of Pittsburgh Medical Center) logo is visible. It’s clearly seen near Bane’s head.
- During the winter scenes of isolated Gotham, many streets are covered in snow, while trees with green leaves can be seen a block away from them.
- In many cases, Bane's mercenaries attack one by one and do not react at all when ambushed.
- When the fuselage of the captured plane is dropped, it falls straight down onto the road below instead of moving forward as it should, considering it was being towed by another plane.
- In the final scene of the film, Alfred is shown sitting in a cafe in Florence reading the Italian newspaper La Repubblica. The newspaper is printed in black and white. This is how the newspaper is printed in foreign countries. In Italy (and therefore in Florence) this newspaper is printed only in color. This would be noticeable because colorful advertising is always placed to the left and right of the title at the top.
- The audio and video are out of sync: when Bruce returns to Gotham and meets Selina to give her the 'Clean Slate,' while Bruce is speaking, the camera cuts around his right shoulder a couple of times, and his lips are not moving.
- Flaws in the plot: Daggett's plan to take over Wayne Enterprises would not have worked. Not only because it was absolutely obvious that Wayne was not at the stock exchange that day. The fact that a terrorist seized control of the exchange and hacked their system would have canceled all trades that occurred that day, as well as any trades called into question.
- Wayne stubbornly dismisses Alfred's opinion about the resurgence of the League of Shadows, as Ra's Al Ghul *was* it, however, in the first film Ra's himself clearly states that they have been 'maintaining balance' for centuries, citing historical events such as the Great Fire of London, the fall of the Roman Empire, and the plague in Europe.
- In the fight scene between Batman and Catwoman against Bane's men on the roof, one of Bane's men falls for no apparent reason.
- When Batman flies away with the bomb at the end, the timer is shown before the explosion, and it's visible that the bomb is inside a room, not in the air.
