Tom Hardy as Bane, is the same as Heath Ledger as Joker, such an impactful performance

I have studied Bane’s character for years. I was in the theatre when the movie came out and that interpretation of Bane has entered my very soul since then. I believe that your analysis is accurate and insightful. It has been definitely interesting hearing it. Though I think that Bane is more independent minded that you depict him to be. He is indomitable and follows no real leader, except for a low key assistance to Talia, I believe, out of a very well concealed emotional dependence. His views were also too extreme for Rash, which means that he took inspiration from his mission, but used it to rework his own vision of things. Deep inside Bane is independent minded, and not a follower. He’d never simply adopt someone else’s view. He rather shares views or contrasts views, but everything that matters is ALWAYS himself. He is so self confident in his own mindset that he even defies Talia in the final scene “You’ll have to imagine the fire”. Because of this I’d say that is unlikely that Bane could’ve been turned into a force for good (the word good as you intend it) as his beliefs are deeply rooted inside himself and originating from his traumas in the “darkness” aka the pit. It’s in Bane’s nature to ‘take’ and use things (concrete or abstract) to his own purpose, twisting them at need. Bane hates the world and its dynamics in all and for all and his purpose is apocalypse, so the extermination of everything, including his own suicide.

To those who say Bane was just a lapdog to Talia and didn’t have a mind of his own seem to forget that she tells Bane to not kill Bruce as she wants him to let the fact he failed to save Gotham to truly sink in. Once she leave him and Bruce alone, he tells Bruce “We both know that I have to kill you now.” He then kicks him to the ground and points a shotgun to his face prepared to kill Bruce, telling him “You’ll just have to imagine the fire” when Selina shoots Bane with a cannon on the Batpod. Also, due to how Bane operates, it’s clear why Ra’s al Ghul didn’t want him to be in the League of Shadows. The League of Shadows in The Dark Knight Rises doesn’t really resemble what it was in Batman Begins. It seems to be more of an organized militia, hellbent on taking over Gotham by a lot more aggressive methods and eventually destroying it with a nuclear bomb. While Talia may be a lot more like her father in her leadership in the sense she’s basically hidden in plain sight, Bane is a lot more brutal and militarized with his. And while the twist of Talia’s reveal may not be to everyone’s liking, I think it works for the film and it doesn’t take anything away from what Bane has done prior to it, considering he was still going to kill Bruce despite the fact she told him not to. Bane is an excellent character and while the Joker perhaps is better overall in The Dark Knight, Bane is able to hold his own and Tom Hardy does not try to outdo what Ledger did and does his own thing with the material he’s given and his performance is fantastic. Thank you for the video, keep up the great work!

Hardy gave a good performance as this iteration of the character. But by having him acting on behalf of Ra's al Ghul and Thalia robs him of his own agency and identity. Bane in the comics absolutely would not do the bidding of anybody. He’s a man who strives to be in control and dominate wherever he is because he had none in his youth, somewhat similar to Bruce.

Except those elements ARE pulled from the comics. Bane becomes initiated into the League of Assassins at the end of "Bane of the Demon" as a candidate to take over for Ras Al Ghul. Bane actually became Ras's top henchman, until he is defeated by Batman and deemed a failure.

@hanalexcranealister67995 ай бұрын
Bane since the very beginning was trying to usurp Ra's throne, as Crimson said he strives to be in control and dominate wherever he is, that doesn't mean he is always in control, but he never lets himself be boss around without planning how to take the top boss, you could say that perhaps in the comics Secret Six is the only moment where he didn't try to become the leader of the group (Haven't read the Tom King comics, when they came out i wanted to buy them, then life happened and i haven't read them), but that's thanks to his weird dynamic with Scandal Savage and it's only when he realizes she can't be the leader, he takes control of the group.

For those who saw The dark knight rises by Christopher Nolan, Nolan Said that the political message of the Dark knight trilogy failed and people didn't understand it. He emphasized that people didn't listen to Bane Message or the league of shadows. Bane He clearly shows that he hates the Western civilization He uses suicide-bombing tactics He was quoted to have said ''the next error of western civilization'' - not the next error of Gotham, but the whole westernized civilization He came from a pit in the Middle-East, where terrorism is around -He hates corruption and decadence -He wants to expose Gotham ( western civilization) to the people and than give them power to decide for themselves where they stand -He views the " criminals" in the society as victims of corrupted system ran by true criminals that belt this environment that produces decadence which produces mental illness and crimes. -He views Batman as protector of the elites and susastiner of a system that has already failed. -He sees Batman as a fake hero who sustains a system that ran by true criminals and attacks the victims of the system ( like the Joker) I think Nolan took some aspects of Middle-Eastern terrorism (often seen by" radical "Muslims) and applied them to Bane. League of Shadows is certainly Al Qaeda to Nolan and he surely doesn't like the system.

Could Bane and Talia be half-siblings? Same dad different mothers. Far fetched i know but it occurred to be recently when I rewatched Rises and how protective he is of Talia and we don't know his parentage. In this movie anyway. Could be Ra's just simply chose not to claim Bane because he was born to another woman but still saved him for saving Talia

That is Bane’s actual original origin. His mother was a criminal as was his father, who had died. But rather give Bane to the system, the prison decided he live out his dead fathers sentence. And so grew up in the prison.

@matthewrocca419711 ай бұрын
I get that but I always think this critique has been sort of overblown. After Talia directly tries to order Bane in the climax to let Bruce live so he can feel the heat of all of the souls he's failed in Gotham, what does Bane do? He immediately rejects this and states to Bruce, "We both know that I have to kill you now. You'll just have to imagine the fire". That, to me, says it all. Bane is not a lackey or front man of Talia; he's her *collaborator*. They both have their own motives. During the first fight with Bruce, Bane elatedly exclaims, "I AM the League of Shadows" and I believe he means it. He's the face of the League. He's the one that they listen to as zealots. The goon in the prologue willingly lets himself perish in the plane because he believes in Bane. Just as Alfred states, "the power of belief". This is what Bane instills in his people and eventually in the masses. No one listens to Talia in this same manner, as she is the one lurking in the shadows. The two form a perfect team together, which would almost be beautiful in a sense if they weren't mass murderers 😅

Every reason you list in this video is why I still think Bane has never been properly portrayed in any film or TV show to date. Bane is no purposeless henchman, he's a cunning strategist and a force of nature. He took out Batman on his own free will and just to prove he could do it, not because someone told him to.
