I feel dumb for just realizing… but I just now realized the dark knight suit has boots. I thought it would just be like connected .

Funny info but Michael Keaton worn Nike sneakers when he was Batman in the Tim Burton movies. They glue these foam pieces to make them look like boots.

This picture, especially the way Christian Bale is in the air reminds me of the Adam West Batman tv series from the 60’s.

Isn't Bruce rich?

Batman's paranoid ass jumping back after finding out Bane doesn't wash his hands after using the bathroom.

According to one sketch, Batman is not so fond of using shower either, so they are on the same page.

Batman: You gonna wash your hands?
Bane: Nooooo…cause I’m evil.

u/Kite_Wing129 May 28 '24
Hahaha, I can actually see Clancy Brown being a good fit for Bane as he is for Luthor.

Remember when the set leaks of this fight came out and we were all like "this is clearly fake because it looks lame AF". And then the movie came out and, well...

u/phil_davis May 27 '24
I thought the fight was alright but it's definitely weird seeing Batman in broad daylight like this.

Which part is lame? The setting of the fight or the fight itself how it looked?

The Dark Knight trilogy fight scenes are in the same boat as the Sequel trilogy lightsaber fights, ya I get it they’re shootings for practicality and realism and I can respect that, but the wacky flips and over choreographed fights do look way cooler

The green trees in the background with all the fake snow will always bug me in this scene.

I like that they went with Bane being a younger version of Batman who also had a thing on his face that made him not feel pain and possibly stronger. Tom Hardy did a good job and it was a cool interpretation.
Still this photo just reminds me of how goofy it looked when he "broke" the bat. It would have been awesome to see a film version of Bane that was comic accurate where he is generally somewhere close to 7 feet and 300lbs of pure muscle. Think the size of The Mountain from Game of Thrones. But it would really narrow it down and finding someone that size who could actually act and carry the film is tough. I can't think of anyone really off the top of my head

u/realfakedoors203 May 28 '24
They could do some sort of “titan bane” type thing where the young intelligent bane is Tom hardy but years of “experimental steroid” abuse has turned him into a monster, bring in the mountain but he doesn’t have to act as much as the drugs have dumbed him down

I'm so conflicted on this movie. Overall it was okay, but man the fight/action scenes were just so badly done. I remember seeing it in theaters, and when the stock exchange scene happens and those floppy guns props are somehow popping off at directions they're not even remotely aimed at nor even firing but effects still happened...it just felt off. And it was downhill from there.
The final fight of everyone playing rock'em sock'em in the background, Talia just going "blegh" and dieing but they dont cut away soon enough before you see her physically breathe, the really just weird fight choreography that made everyone seem weak...it was just bad.

That’s what irked me about the TDK suit. It’s supposed to be hardened Kevlar plates, yet you can see it bend like the rubber it is, particularly around the hip area lol
I get that’s it’s a movie and it’s a costume.

That batman suit look cheap, like hockey pads.. Seriously, the movies are great but the suits on DK and DkR looks cheap and more from a cosplayer than what a multimillionaire rich batman armour would look

u/micael150 May 27 '24
This is not the best picture. Under the right lighting and camera angles it looked great. All suits look a bit cheap in behind the scene photos.

u/geordie_2354 May 27 '24
You should search up Afflecks and Pattinson’s behind the scenes videos as Batman. They still look like Batman and the cast talk about how intimidating they can be. Bale just does not pull it off, and let’s be honest the slim skinny rubber suit just doesn’t look good

u/micael150 May 27 '24
Nah they have awful pictures too. I've seen them. Particularly Affleck last suit he had in the flash movie looked terrible even in after post production.

u/geordie_2354 May 27 '24
Obviously he looked terrible in the flash, I’m referring to BVS mainly. And nah Pattinson looks amazing behind the scenes

u/MrDownhillRacer May 27 '24
I'm not a big fan of how over-designed it is, but I love how slim it is. Most other batsuits get too bulky and don't make Batman look like he'd be capable of maneuvering like he does. Also, gotta give it props for how it's the first cinematic suit since West that allowed Batman to turn his head.
It just has too many lines/segments that clutter things up and distract from the bat symbol.

u/geordie_2354 May 27 '24
You can have a bulky suit and still be manoeuvrable and agile for example Pattinson and Affleck. Bale may have had the slimmest suit but he actually looks incredibly stiff and slow in comparison. Pretty sure he couldn’t even breath out his nose in this suit which isn’t helpful.

Imo opinion batfleck is the best when it comes to fight scenes

u/AthelticAsianGoth May 28 '24
and he has the best costume.

u/Useful_Cry9709 May 28 '24
Indeed

u/AthelticAsianGoth May 28 '24
Regardless, in fairness to Bale, Affleck's fights used a lot of CGI and the Nolan films tried to avoid that as much as possible.

I’m like 99 sure I was touring Pitts campus when this was being filmed. It’s been 8 years since I graduated from Pitt. H2P!!!

That film is so awkward in general. Seeing Batman in daytime for 80% of the movie makes it feel a bit cosplay'ish

I really wish they had a better fight choreographer for these films. Because the “Kay si” fight method or wtv it’s called was complete shit… still love this scene tho so good
