          They just gave the feds more power to arrest with a smaller probable cause, while also offering criminals the choice between snitching or getting extremely heavy sentences, so they could destroy criminal organizations very easily. The trouble is that giving police this much power in an up-and-coming matriarchy like 90s America handed the tools of state directly to histrionic man-hating Black person-loving prostitutes. when men were legally prevented from hitting women, worthwhile society died.

      Yeah basically. That was the reason why we couldn't arrest Al Capone. He was guilty beyond a reasonable doubt but the department didn't have any solid evidence against him.

        The Scene where he breaks batman's back compared to the comics was so underwhelming. I'd have to rewatch the movie, but batman was going in the red, the buildup in the comics was better. We never got to see Azrael. Bane was supposed to be a guy like Jack Reacher, basically. Huge, well read, and quick on the draw. Tom Hardy couldn't fill that part. It was better than the Clooney version, where they turned Bane into a roided up moron who couldn't string two sentences together. He was like a hulk with brain damage there, kek.

            I will give Nolan some credit: the way the sewer fight is shot makes Bane look like he towers over Bruce (low angle shots for Bane, normal angle shots for Bruce) and it makes sense thematically for this to change as the movie goes on and Batman becomes more of an equal opponent. So him looking smaller in the final fight is okay I guess.

              Bane is supposed to be massive. The fact that he's shorter and his arms look like they're about the same as Bale's makes him less imposing than he should be. It's not Hardy's fault. If they can make Frodo and Gandalf work in a wide shot, they could've done the same with Bane/Batman. Nolan is just lazy.

                Yeah it should've been even easier considering Bane is bald and has a mask on. Just use a big stunt double for the wide shots and Tom for the close ups. It would probably improve Nolan's shit choreography as well because the stunt double can actually fight.

                Bane looked fine throughout the entire motive.
                His voice and dialogue was beyond redicluous in the first scene, and almost the entire second half of the movie is bad, but other than that bane was fine.
                The sewer fight scene was perfect. People in the theater was totally shocked and demoralized in silence after that scene ended, I remember.

                And yeah Nolan specifically uses low angle shots to make Bane look bigger and more intimidating in the sewer fight. And he uses a high angle here to make the other actor look smaller:

      Most of the characters don't really have anything to say. They talk to break the silence. Since the film is trying to be serious these can't just be cheesy one-liners, and there's only so much clunky exposition you can work in, so characters wind up pontificating about nothing in particular. Poignantly vacuous dialogue is a trademark of Nolan films.

        It was right after Knightfall, so Bruce was out of commission with a broken back. Jean-Paul Valley was brainwashed by the Order of St Dumas to become Azrael, a heartless assassin, so when he puts on the Bat-cowl his head gets all screwy.

    Wow. What a powerful story.

      Fantastic summary.

    This is the one Bane line that completely baffled me on my first watch. I know there’s a lot of talk about how bad the voice for Bane was, and it really was. But all I heard was “Please a garba da ba, dibbity ba gibbity goo”. Absolutely atrocious sound mixing that never should’ve passed the final effort. Only a few minutes later, he delivers the worse line reading in cinematic history, with “but we are initiated bruce, MEMBERS OF THE LEAGUE OF SHADOWS”, in which he delivers the first half of the line like a domestically abusive husband gloating because he found a text on his wife’s phone that he thinks gives him just cause to give her the beating of her life, and the second half like a junkie demanding my phone at knife point so he can flip it for meth money.

    And don’t even get me started on “WHERE’S THE TRIGGER! YOU WOULDN’T GIVE IT TO A CITIZEN!” So you know, I have to admit this movie is worse than the previous two, and I can only give it a 7/10.

        The sewer fight is hands down the best bit of the film, and it still fizzles. And why yes, my brain is all fricked up. Thank you for noticing.

          It doesn't fizzle. It's perfect. Batman is screaming and almost crying because of how much bane is completely demoralizing him physically. It's perfect.

            Ok. It does fizzle though.

          The best moments of the film are Bruce making the jump out of the pit, and Gordon realizing who Batman really is.

          >And don’t even get me started on “WHERE’S THE TRIGGER! YOU WOULDN’T GIVE IT TO A CITIZEN!”
          The part I don't understand is that if Bane just wanted to destroy Gotham, and he clearly didn't care if he or any of his followers lived or died, why not just detonate it the second he saw Batman was back? Talia clearly didn't care about living either, so she can't be an excuse.

          The whole point of stretching it out was to make Batman suffer. He will suffer more if he tries and fails to save Gotham before the bomb goes off.

    My friend told me that Bane has never once been defeated in the comics by having Batman cut off his venom wires/tubes. Is that true? It's pretty much a trope at this point that anyone can beat Bane with a scissor by just cutting him off from his supply on venom.

      It's how he's beaten in the story he was created for

        To be fair, Azrael had already beaten Bane so badly prior to this that cutting him off from Venom was not even necessary.

      I refuse to believe someone has read every single comic in which Bane is defeated to verify or debunk this claim

    I wish there was a cut with the original voice before they dubbed it
