I would doubt it. All the bomb testing in the Pacific never did, and when an undersea quake sets on off an alert, it seems to me you hear of fault lines hundreds or even a few thousand miles long.

The two bombs on Japan made craters only like 600 Yards across and started fires up to 7 miles away (just heard the stats a few days ago somewhere and still remembered them) so not that big an area compared to a quake really.

The point I made is sure Alfred can imagine Bruce at that Cafe but Selina Kyle was with him why would Alfred imagine her with him when she was alive if it's a nod that he's dead. It kinda proves he survived if she was with him.

I don't think the ending was ambiguous at all. Where is everyone getting this "possible dream sequence" from? There was nothing to suggest such a thing. Sounds like an excuse for the impossible scenario of Batman escaping a nuclear explosion in less than five seconds.

Like you said, why would Alfred dream up Kyle with Bruce? I think it's pretty clear that Bruce is living his life abroad.

Exactamundo! So few flaws though I just really hope the reboot or robin sequel won't take a decade to produce.

Robin spinoff? I don't even think Francis Ford Coppola could sell that to a studio.

If I had my way for a reboot, I'd reach out to the Batman: The Animated Series, and Arkham City guys, to pen it. Those guys know Batman better than anyone.

Fair enough. I don't know much about nukes, it'd just seems like one that close would do something. If nothing else maybe just the fallout from it.

THIS RIGHT FUCKING HERE!!!!

I love this franchise but just imagine what Paul Dini and Bruce Timm could come up with. I really wish WB would get these guys to do all DC adaptations in the future.

David S Goyer would probably pen the screenplay and Joseph would probably be open to returning as Robin i'm just saying I would watch it!

As far as the reboot that's right on Bruce Timm is amazing.

Even Micheal Caine believes the Cafe scene is legit.

Enough of this dream sequence nonsense.

I'm just going off what both Nolans said about the ending. They both say it's up to the viewer to decide what happened.
