It's not like it was hard to spot, but given all that was going on at the time, it was hard to process.

I honestly wonder if that wasn't by design. Unless you tune the movie out for 15 minutes and start pondering, there's just not a good moment to get much beyond the "wait...so Bane isn't the child" moment. And even that one is likely brushed off by most of the viewing audience as a product of their own misunderstanding.

For the record; loved the movie. I love 'beginning' type stories and I think that's why I like Begins and even this one better than TDK. TDK is just Batman whupin' ass and using gadgets the whole time. Both Begins and Rises have a 'rebuild' story to them and I love those.
I'm still wondering why the "is Bane the child?" subplot is important to the story.

Please help?
