THE DARK KNIGHT RISES - "Batman Reveals His True ID to Gordon"

[@cooleffectsfilms]

I love how they both know, how much that simple gesture meant to Bruce, and how after all those years it still meant so much to him.

[@romilrh]

And not only that, in the same breath Bruce communicated to Gordon that he didn't wish for his identity to be revealed to the world. Because it didn't matter who the Batman was, the point is that anybody can be a hero.

[@JHulse29]

What an amazing line. Batman letting Gordon know hey I may be a hero to the city now, but you've always been mine

[@pathologicaldoubt]

🥲

[@RTU130]

Ye

[@mriddley]

It really hits home when you hear how some of the other cops were talking they were acting like he just hit the jackpot he just became the richest child on earth but all gordon saw was a kid who just lost everything that really meant something to him

[@hammasaamir9588]

A hero can be anyone, even a man doing something as simple and reassuring as putting a coat on a young boy's shoulders to let him know that the world hadn't ended.

[@plainOldFool]

A villain can be anyone, even a man doing something as simple and intimidating as demanding a case with four stones in it! Not one or two or three but FOUR! FOUR STONES!

[@BaconNuke]

Ok, this is one of my favorite ways of a superhero revealing their identity, not just like *pull off mask* "hey i'm *insert name* " but like just alluding to it with something only the other person knows..it's nice

[@Gamefreak-js5it]

BaconNuke I see where your coming from it’s not really as fun if they just pull Bruce Wayne just pulled off the mask and went “hey I’m Bruce Wayne” I like how he kinda hinted it to Gordon right there

[@AlphaKiller-vx9sk]

He was also trying to let Gordon know that he too played a huge part in creating the Batman. Gordon never realized that doing something so small yet so meaningful to a traumatized boy would motivate Bruce to become the city’s guardian. Bruce was subtly thanking Gordon for what he did on that fateful night and that he too is the hero of Gotham.

[@NefariousDreary]

@@AlphaKiller-vx9sk and that's why in the previous 2 movies, Bruce kept telling him that he'll never have to say thank you. Freaking beautiful

[@adibsiddiki7409]

@@NefariousDreary oh my days, I always wondered why he said that. That's brilliant

[@kainthedragoon8081]

In the comics Gordon straight up refused to look at Batman without his mask

[@AlphaKiller-vx9sk]

I tear up every time I watch this moment. Yes Batman is a hero, but so are also the people who inspired him. Men like Gordon who comforted Bruce at that fateful night, Alfred who basically raised him and told him right from wrong, and his parents who did everything they could to protect him in that alley. The heroes are the people who Bruce loved, they made the Batman, the city’s guardian without even knowing it.

[@Just_Snowy]

A lot of people have shaped Batman. Even those with impure intentions, like Falcone, Ra's and others. Without them, Bruce wouldn't become batman.

[@98953812]

@@Just_Snowy Exactly. What some people don't understand is that if, hypothetically, Batman created these supervillians, wouldn't the opposite also be true? Falcone, Loeb (the actually corrupt version), Ra's, Dagget, etc. Their evil may have also brought out the Batman.

[@Mike_11_16]

To be Gordon in that moment...to know the masked man who you and the people of Gotham saw as their hero, actually held you up as his own hero for all these years... His scarf even blew in the wind, as only that of a caped hero could.

[@Maiquior83]

0:42 I love how his scarf feels like the cape of a superhero, Bruce's hero

[@sharpiefumes]

The best casting for Jim Gordon ever

[@K_H_0621]

That “Bruce Wayne” was delivered perfectly.

[@DanielWheeler]

Gary Oldman is one hell of an actor

[@whosaprettykitty5076]

I love this moment so much. For the past three films, Gordon has always preached about the type of hero Batman is. His admiration for him was never left a secret, and the way Gordon holds him in such high regards for what he did to help Gotham. What’s beautiful is that Batman always told Gordon he never had to thank him for what he does. He never had to thank him for being a hero, because Gordon was one of his.

[@Vikashar]

@@godphoenix66x They're not garbage, idiot, they're different. Few things can be scaled as better/worse.

[@windrider711]

What would have been cool too is if Batman dropped his Batman voice when "revealing" to Gordon his identity. Just another symbolic gesture that Bruce was prepping himself to let go of Batman. His final words as Batman would not have been stated by Batman but by Bruce Wayne, he's finally ready to let go of his vengence. Just a thought.

[@casualnub1429]

Interesting, but as Batman he still had one job to do. Protecting the city carrying the bomb away...So the voice was suitable anyway.

[@EGarrett01]

Yes but Christian Bale wouldn't drop that awful voice for even a second. He really needed more of a moment to indicate that he's realizing he's about to die. Instead of that ridiculous tough guy lip and rasp to the death. Christian Bale really screwed up his part in these movies. They're great otherwise, but they're great despite him.

[@JordzzO]

@@EGarrett01what are u saying man

[@EGarrett01]

@@JordzzO "It would've been cool if Batman had dropped the Batman voice, but Christian Bale sucks and kept the dumb voice and didn't even look like he realized he was going to die. He just kept action liking a gravely-voiced action hero moron."

Good idea but one problem, Batman isn’t Bruce Wayne; Bruce Wayne, is Batman.

[@EdwinDPZ]

Honestly with how much crime there is in Gotham surely Bruce wasn't the only orphan Gordon comforted.

[@wilbur4548]

Yeah that's true lol

[@AWDTH1111]

DarthOliptius Maybe He was the only one he put a coat around? Lol he got the rest candy or hot cocoa

[@Jen-Yueh_Hu]

Yeah the rest probably met him in summer so he bought them ice cream instead.

[@gremlin1018]

True, but (probably) out of all of them, Bruce was the only one that could afford the equipment. And if you comforted young John Cena or someone like that, you’re gonna remember that more than some regular kid, because John Cena is everywhere in the form of a meme, just like Bruce is in Gotham.

[@shaunhumphreys6714]

yeah but gordon would have read the Gotham City classic novelet "top 5000 ways to comfort a newly made orphan".

I love that fir Bruce that wasnt just admitting "I'm Batman" that was him telling Gordon "Batman exist today because everyday Heroes like you performing small acts of love that inspire hope in future generations to do the same" honestly really brings the whole ending of 2 and begining of 1 full circle, Jim saved Bruce, Brue saved Jims kids, and then together they saved a whole citys soul

[@corneliusmooseknuckle2829]

Now let's see how many things I can bounce this nuke off of.

[@ChristopherNealBUSHIDO49ERS]

This was my favorite scene from this film. Mr. Nolan pulled this off spectacularly! And of course great acting from Mr. Bale and Mr. Oldman.

[@jokerinthebronx]

He did this with Rachel in the first film. It works. He's revealing his secret and also thanking Gordon.

[@DreadNawght]

Gordon, who did that with every kid he knew: "Gerarld Thompson?"

[@BlueSoldier87]

Man all 3 of these were so good

[@flagtheoffense]

The look on his face as he processed it. lol outstanding

[@FATE522]

You would think Alfred is Batman's hero, but it is something special Gordon is. Throughout the trilogy he has tried to build a friendship with him in fighting crime and there couldn't be a more noble police officer.

[@ericsantana1184]

I love that scene so much because it shows that Jim Gordon has been so kind and he was there when he was helping Bruce after he lost his parents. Even more so Alfred has been more of a father to him and Jim Gordon has been family to him as well I guess. If I lost the family member I would like it very much to just be surrounded by my family and my friends just to have enough Comfort to know that I still have hope even while I'm in my grief my reason for that is because it will prevent me from being alone

[@josephoswald2292]

Reminds me of the scene in Batman Begins when he told Rachel Dawes.

[@chadstearman]

Most powerful scene of the entire trilogy. The music, the flashback. Just flawless!

man i love that part such a beutiful scene wen he hints his identity to Gorden i get the chills wen i listen to the background violin music in this scene i love wen he says "Bruce wayne'' relizing that he was the hero all along the whole time

[@Voldemorts.Nipple]

goosebumps

[@jeremyaliensmith7760]

same

[@MayayaLastica]

What's so wonderful about Batman, is that the reason why he's hiding is identity, is to not only protect his loved ones, but it's also because he doesn't care about credit or acknowledgement. He does what he does, not because he wants anything in exchange, but because he wants to do great, as simple as that. The people who see Batman(or even Superman) as simplistic and shallow characters because of their moral compass, are the ones who've probably never touched a dc comic in their life(probably ofc, i still may be wrong).

[@drakenfist]

I completely agree with this. This was touched on at the end of Batman Begins, when Gordon says: "I never said thank you". Batman: "and you'll never have to".

[@luh-lat]

When good acting was a requirement even in superhero movies.

[@surfboarding5058]

Beauty moment. When the Batman Begins soundtrack plays it’s almost too perfect. Incredible film making

[@Eidlones]

It's nice that Gordan remembered that one action he did like 25 years ago, and that he only ever did that once in his career. "...George Flanders!"

[@DaleSteel]

Best film of the trilogy. Best cast of any batman trilogy and this the second best sequence, second only to Arthur seeing Bruce wayne in the cafe at the end. The second film us voted the 3rd best film of all time but to me the storyline in this is far better. Oh and best director!

[@CYP0]

It seems that Jim Gordon has only ever saved and consoled one boy in his entire crime-fighting career.

[@anmolt3840051]

Gotham is a hotbed of crime and Gordon, as a longtime policeman, has likely had to deal with (hopefully with the same level of care and reassurance) many kids orphaned by violent crime, and even more kids forced by their situation into conflict with the law ... it's kind of unrealistic that he would immediately work out Batman's identity with just this hint

During that era, Marvel was still leading over DC, however, movies like The dark knight trilogy, man of steel proved that dc still prove themselves over marvel domination, those who said the dark knight and man of steel were flop, most of them are marvel fans . This is the truth, because they were expecting an action comedy and child friendly like marvel movies at that time.
