Yeah. They should have showed him injecting venom and becoming huge. That would have been awesome. Nolan portrays Bane all muscular and all but no venom?

Yup, was waiting for that.

Maybe Nolan was aiming for a more "human" version of Bane. :|

I think Bane's physicality was portrayed well. He definitely looked intimidating. Besides he was highly trained for combat and survival. I had a problem with his characterization though. I wasn't completely sold on him being a master strategist like he was in the comics. Not a big fan of Hardy's dialogue delivery too :\

Saw it again and I loved it even more .I understood the movie better especially the ending and this time I had a smile on my face when leaving the theater .

IMO this is the best movie of the trilogy

Why did Talia's mother entered the pit?

I didn't get that part.

Sacrifice in exchange for Ra As

 

 

 

 

What happened to Mayor? Dead?

Dead

 

Many of us are confusing artistic liberties with what really defines as a PLOT HOLE. Saying something that doesn't seem plausible in ones point of view isn't a plot hole.

 

 

A real plot hole would be like- how Bruce was able to return BACK to Gotham?

 

1) How Bane delivers Bruce to the jail. Plane? Helicopter? It doesn't really matter since we assume that Bane has the resources to do so. <_<

 

2) How Bruce gets back to Gotham, true, But does the viewer really need information that detailed? (As one member asked above for "confirmation" (Dude, this is a Nolan-esque film. Not useless bollywood movies, where one gives the meaning of a joke after cracking it.)

 

Also we assume, He's BRUCE WAYNE, for Pete's sake--he traveled the world in BB with no wallet/ID. I'm sure he could sneak back in--He's the Batman. Eh? :batman:

 

3) Actually a bigger plot hole is how Bruce would NOT be able to get back into Gotham. Sure, the bridges are blown up. But does Bane have people at EVERY point along Gotham's perimeter? I doubt it.

 

We know that the shooting took place in India but it is never mentioned where the actual Pit is .The Pit could have been on the outskirts of Gotham .That part is not explained .

 

1)His cronies lift him to that place so we can assume it was somewhere close by .

 

2)He could not sneak back in,that part is not possible so we can assume that the pit is somewhere on the outskirts of Gotham

A lot of People saying tdkr is the best of the series will come around in few weeks, once the hype is dead you would realise how much perfect tdk and bb were. A lot of fans are pumped up just cos they saw a batman flick on big screen after huge wait.

I get what you are saying and you may be right about it for some people.I would suggest you to watch it again .

 

some things i didnt like about the movie

 

 

 

1. Bruce Hallucinating Ra's... i wanted him to be there for real and disappear.. after coming home it hit me that the prison that they should was actually nolan's potrayal of the lazarous pit which was actually very realistic

2. the name "Robin".. i mean i know it was used for non comic book readers for whom Dick Grayson or Jason Todd doesnt ring any bells

since his name is Robin he definelty cant use his name as robin and run around in cape.. if they try to milk this franchise then the "robin" blake should use Batty Cape

 

1.i think Ra As was real and is immortal

 

2.I think he will be the new Batman and not Robin

 

Also, how come he imagine something like Ra's Al ghul who tells him something he doesn't even know.

I think hes real very real .Ra As is immortal

 

but the scene about making the jump was Epic.

This

Superb it was and the background score made it epic

I highly doubt the prison was in close proximity to Gotham. It looked like a different county altogether. Even the inmates looked like they were from different countries and races. Anyway in a comic book film I'm willing to accept that Bruce made it back somehow, in a Nolan film it needed a little more detail.

I get what you mean but its not mentioned that it was in India,if it was then it should be a plot hole .This is a case of Nolan not giving us the information .

I just can't get over the fact that Bane was all fine and dandy again when his mask was reset. What is this, Mario?

 

Also, does anyone else think this movie had Bruce on an ego trip? He threw Alfred out (somewhat), did not listen to him at all, Bane f**ked him up without breaking a sweat so being the Batman you'd expect him to find some clever way to defeat him, instead he goes and does the exact same thing, another fist fight.

 

Then he let the people believe he was dead, and died for them. Well, three people at least. Batman was dead so for the rest it was the same.

 

I'm sounding too negative here. :P

Dude That mask is holding his pain together. he was torn apart in the cell when he tried to save Talia

 

Batman got f**ked up in the fist fight because he was in after 8 years. He build himself in the cell and also he got to know that without mask,bane is nothing from the Doctor.

Dude, that explanation clearly doesn't fly. Do you not remember how one sided the first fight was? How did Bruce build himself up? By crunches, pushups and pull ups? :rofl:

 

Anyway one of the better sequences was when Batman and Cat double teamed to take down Bane's guys. Short, but special.

But in the second he knew what he had to do. Try to take the mask off.

The mask is more mental then physical.A legend does not mean that its completely true.Bane talks about how hes a torturer mentally and not physically .

 

Bruce does kick out Afred because of his ego

He cant believe that Rachel would choose harvey over him,he has built his own life around a lie and due to that lie he has shut himself from the world.

 

He Targets the mask in the 2nd fight ,also in the first fight Alfrd warns him that he lacks the belief that Bane has and its that belief that he regains when he rises out of that pit of death .

 

The reason he vanished and fakes his own death is because he wanted to start afresh just like Selina .Hes given everything to gotham and he finally decided that its time that he moves on .He would have moved on earlier had he known the truth about Rachel

 

IMO you need to see it again and no you do not sound negative ,Its just a case of overhype

 

Am i the only one who thinks Blake/JDL might become next Batman and not robin.

IMO he has to be Batman

I get that. I agree he does target the mask and manages to open it up. But, it would have been more acceptable to me if he had come up with a more intelligent way of doing it. It's not like he did not hit Bane in the face or with uppercuts in the first fight. Bane barely even flinched!

 

I get the reason he decided to fake his death and move on too. I'm just commenting it was a bit egotistical, that's all :P

 

Also, do Gordon and Blake get to know he's still alive? I kinda don't remember that..

His ego and overconfidence costs him first time against Bale (That was 1 Awesome fight ).It was his ego that made him think that he would beat Bane as he considered Bane nothing more than a mercenary kicked out of the League Of Shadows.His confidence is based on the fact that he Beat Ra'As the leader but Alfred warns him that hes only surviving thanks to Foxs toys and that Banes belief will be a problem .He is more prepared 2nd time but I get what you mean like he uses a trick or technique to rid Bane of his mask

 

Yes they both know

 

Do you remember the flashlight above Gordons office ? The one that he breaks in TDK .On that he finds a batrrang and he starts smiling recognizing that Bruce is still alive

 

The bag that JGL gets I think thats the hint , that Bruce gives him mention the areas of the Batcave and the Batsuit which are ready for him as he will take up the mantle of Batman IMO
