RE: no because that would be (spoiler alert)

In Reply to: "There was one thing about Wayne/Batman that didn't seem to add up." Do you want to say what that thing was? posted by Jazz Inmate on August 5, 2012 at 09:42:49:

a spoiler. Of which I've already posted too many above.

Oh what the h. The movie has been out for two weeks and complete synopsis can be found around the web.

What caught my eye was the physical condition of Wayne as seen and even explained at the beginning of the film. In fact there are medical X-rays taken of his legs that are meant to demonstrate to us that his cartilage in the knees is completely gone....making it extremely painful for him to walk around. So when Wayne does move around, he does so with the assist of a cane. So part of his reclusive behavior is explained by his crippling condition.

Then as the plot develops we see Wayne get interested, again, in his Batman alter ego. And then where does he go but to consult with Lucius about any new "toys" that he may utilize in his Batman activities. One of those toys appears to be a prosthetic device to help his condition with the knees. Afterward we see him wearing the device, which appears to be a rather mundane knee brace. Nothing high tech. No active suspension. No bionics.

In the next action scene we see 'Batman' making an appearance on the street and he seems to get around just as normally as in the past. That is to say he gets around with the demeanor of a "ninja"......with extreme agility and athletic prowess.

That's what doesn't add up for me. But then this is the movies 2012.
