for all of the dark knight rises faults, at least nolan knew that the best way to end his trilogy was to give his protagonist a happy, satisfying ending
How many times do we have to correct this, Ben didn't destroy the temple (he claims he did bc he isn't sure) but it was destroyed by lightning, most likely palps (if you've read the trokr comic you know this), and he didn't slaugther any of he students inside.
Broke not only my love for this franchise but also my general trust in storytelling in an almost completely irreversible way. Still haven't healed, unsure I ever will. Truly dreadful in a truly astonishing way.
