I read a comment on one of the videos of this film where someone described a scene which would've appeared if Heath Ledger hadn't died, where basically Bane goes into the Blackgate prison and comes across the Joker's cell. He stares at him but walks past. The Joker goes mental but then starts laughing because he knows Bane fears the Joker.

“The powerful will be ripped from their decadent nests and cast out into the cold world that we know and endure!” Almost makes you cry tears of rage

[@Ashnesss]

That’s his revenge for what he has endured. The darkness he was born to. Rejection, dejection, hopelessness, fear, anger, betrayal and destitution. Such people are the most dangerous. All over the world rejected, dejected and disillusioned men spread anarchy because they want to settle scores with destiny, God, the world and society for what they’ve endured. School shooters, stalkers, rapists, men who beat women, misogynists, criminals, rioters, etc all have this in common. Studies show that rejected men are more likely to be right wing and that attitude in turn, is more likely to lead to rejection from women. That puts men in a vicious cycle. Women who are held back by parents and society from a young age, mistreated and oppressed by their father, husband and in laws, become disillusioned, hateful and angry. They want to settle scores with the universe and want to take revenge for what was done to them, to feel in control. They do that by oppressing women, children or their own sons. They become jealous and hateful of women who are younger, desired and have every opportunity or life, that they didn’t have. They settle scores with those who have more even if they don’t know them. That’s why you see some people get triggered by people who are more modern, progressive, educated, sophisticated and “posh”. Men who do well, get top jobs, are successful, have success with women and supportive friends, don’t turn out that way. That’s not a coincidence. The same goes for women. Women who “have it all” don’t turn out that way. It’s always a certain type who does and once you notice their reactions, statements, mindset, habits and track record you realise that they’re angry at the world for what they believe they’ve been robbed of. Its very serious because such people are the reason for much of the worlds lack of safety and security today.

[@Killzoneguy117]

In many ways, Bane is an interesting mix of Ra's al Ghul and the Joker. Very much like Ra's al Ghul, he is obsessed with destroying Gotham to pave the way for what he perceives to be a better future, but for him, it's not just about destroying Gotham, it's making a mockery of the norms and rules of society. Of tearing down Gotham's idea of civilization by forcing the people of Gotham to descend into anarchy and chaos, to turn on one another if only to survive. "When the chips are down, these civilized people? They'll eat each other". Bane destroys not just Gotham, he destroys the idea of Gotham, the humanity of the people of Gotham by letting the worst in them take over.

[@thamostgangsta12]

Of course but I feel like it was a bit too comic like for the movie. Bane would need more of a political approach. His whole plan is based off the French Revolution besided the bomb.

[@GameReviewer1987]

Pksoze To an extent, but like you said; Bane's 'liberation' was just a ploy to make Bruce suffer even more and carry out Ra's Al Ghul's plan in an almost poetic fashion. Also, pretty much all of Bane's army were 'bad guy' mercenaries and prisoners who were only interested in causing chaos and doing as they pleased, where the regular populace did not support what was happening. During the Revolution people actually believed in the cause and were generally in support of it.

Plus the original Bane spoke SPANISH AND WAS FROM MEXICO. I was just saying I didn't mind all of that not being in the movie I just hated him being a puppet at the end when he was so well written for 90% of the movie.

[@trentonmcdonald9708]

Yeah thats fair

[@HiddenStrengthTimelapseDrawing]

I understand where you are coming from on this matter. Respectfully, I hold a differant perspective: Talia was now the head of the League of Shadows by birthright. Just as Ra's had the authority to excommunicate Bane, so too Talia now had the authority to reinstate him back into the Order. After her biological father (Ra's) died, she sought out her adoptive father (Bane) to bring "true justice" upon Gotham. By assigning Bane to take the lead in Gotham's ultimate distruction, she would have already known of his fiercely independant way of doing things. I have no reason to believe that Talia was micromanaging every event that took place. Instead, I believe she trusted in Bane's experiance and intellect to accomplish the purposes she desired: • Eliminate the Batman and all opposers. • Break the spirits of Gotham's citizens • Ultimately distroy the city. There are moments in the film where I noticed Talia's subtle disapproval of Bane's choices of action, such as when she and Lucias Fox are summoned to the upper board room after the takeover. This tells me that while Bane respects Talia, he does not fear her. "I am the League of Shadows". This implies to me that he views Talia's position as being that of an organizational figurehead, while he views himself as the true power behind the throne.

[@Khorothis]

Sometimes I wonder if some movies are less for entertainment and serve as warnings instead.

[@bossmugga1]

What a dystopian future is like, where people are so poor and oppressed that they revolt with a terrorist for the hope of a revolution.

[@Khorothis]

Michael Ziegler I'm not sure if "future" is the case anymore. And "terrorist" is a label that comes from very specific perspectives. Hell, back when the US was just a British colony, the whole bunch could have been called terrorists. But because they won, they call themselves revolutionaries. Like I said, a matter of perspective.

[@bossmugga1]

Khorothis Technically Bane is a terrorist, he employs his tactics through extremist violence and murder. Creating a hole in a prison complex, then giving them guns to take control of the city. Promising liberation, though going to detonate an atom bomb. Even though he exposed in society what was already there, the oppression. Someone who seeks to lead the masses through the production of fear, is a terrorist. Technically Batman is a terrorist too, he inspires nothing but fear in criminals. Though he employs a no killing rule, and mostly seeking to inspire hope in society. So he's less of one than Bane.

This is why I enjoyed the Nolan Batman films over other comic book flicks. They looked and played out as movies beyond a mere comic book medium.

Bane didnt really believe in the socialist revolution hes spouting. He just wanted to pit people against each other by using very real concerns only to sit back and allow the city to tear itself apart all while Bruce watches from his cell. If it weren't for his desire to destory everyone in gotham via a nuke, I'd be more sympathetic to him as an antagonist. And while I love this movie to death, and the direction Nolan went with, I think it would have fit better if Bane believed in this revolution idea, and his whole arc in the story is realizing his approach to it with violence is a little misguided and he and Bruce come to terms with each other at the end. Still though, this Bane is one of the best villains ever put to screen.

Keaton couldn't even turn his head, it's like he's got a neckbrace or something... 43 year old Affleck LOOKS uncomfortable in the fat costume Snyder intended to pander to Frank Miller fanboys - Miller's Batman was a 55 year old Batman who was a fat veteran, so why force Affleck to look like him??!!

Imagine Ledger is still alive during this film, and somewhere deep in the prison, Joker is hearing Bane's speech and quietly said to himself, ‘I had warned you Batsy’...

[@AngelofMusic04]

I always thought they should have had a Joker silhouette appear in the pit behind Bruce when he imagines Ra's al Ghul's return, chuckling and telling Bruce he told him this would happen.

[@KyranSparda]

Read that in Mark Hamill's voice. 😂 Ledger's joker wouldn't say a thing, he would just sit in the prison alone in front of a TV, clapping. Hamill's joker would talk or laugh by himself because he's a maniac. Ledger's joker on the other hand, may be an anarchist but also is a genius to an extend, everything he does is with an intent. He wouldn't make any small talk or gesture without it being directed to anyone. His intension is to get the reaction from the people he's talking to. That's why you don't see Ledger's joker talks or laughs to himself, he does it to piss some people off, usually according to his plan. 😂 Like how he did to Batman while he's punching him to get the whereabouts of Rachel & Harvey. "You got nothing on me."

It was silly. Was pretty stupid honestly. I love Hardy but this was stupid

[@therebel4630]

Stupid MAN2488 I disagree, because by that logic you can say the same about darth vaders voice. Bane has horrific facial damage and would clearly have a weird voice even without a metallic mask that must be hard to breath in. I think the voice is fitting. (And it has spawned so many great memes.)

Fun Fact: I used to work in that building Bane is making his Speech from. It's an Biology Lab. Animal Testing. It's completely unmarked and many people mistake it for the Museum that's a few blocks down the street from it. (Side Fun Fact: That Museum is actually where part of Silence of the Lambs was shot when speaking about the Moth, which I also worked at, overnights, and is the only reason I know that. You actually see the Museum in the background at 0:04, right in the middle.) Anyways, back to the lab and Bane's Speech, it's not across the street from where the reporters are - reason why it kinda looks weird and why they and Bane are never in the same shot. Where the Reporters are is Downtown, where Bane is is a few miles away. In college central. Where University of Pitt is. Side, Side, Side fun fact: I applied to work as a PA on set but wasn't hired. (sad face)
