In TDK or TDKR Alfred said to Bruce that he would go to this cafe in Florence every year and he wish he would see Bruce there, retired from batman and truly enjoy/live his personal life.
In Good Will Hunting, Chuckie (Ben Affleck's character) told Will (Matt Damon's character) that he wish one day when he comes knocking on his door he wouldn't be there, that Will would finally moved on to pursue a greater life, or doing whatever with his intelligence. He would be so happy to finally not seeing Will there.
It's kinda wholesome coincidence, especially upon the ending of both film Alfred and Chuckie did smile and looked truly happy to see their loved one finally live their lives. Maybe it's Nolan intended reference?
Too add to this. Decades later Affleck casted as Batman, even though it's not in the same film/universe but still worth noting this series of coincidences!
Anyone notices this too?
