So did you just totally miss Fox asking who approved the auto pilot and they said it was signed off by Bruce wayne 6 months ago or something, Gordan finding the bat signal rebuilt, and the other hints dropped that he didn't die?
if i didn't know she was Talia already just so obvious by the casting way back when, not such a twist everyone saw coming her using Ra's "restore balance" to the world was a dead give away
Yes, Bruce was alive. That's why there was that conversation about the autopilot and it was said that a patch was installed months ago by Bruce Wayne. So he was able to bail out and have it on autopilot.
@WoodCraft Kits eh... even with Nolan it's pretty clear cut it largely hinted at him living. Going to Paris w Selina, Foxx smiling at the autopilot because he knows. I guess it's like you said open for possibility, but there's more that points toward him surviving then not
@WoodCraft Kits Well sure, but, if Bruce had indeed died, then there’s no use for that last scene with Alfred and Celina. Idk, maybe he dunked under the water when the detonation happened. He’s Batman so it’s safe to assume he had an oxygen tank onboard the Bat which let him breathe under water. He probably swam to the shore. There. Hehe.
He's alive, at least that's what I believe. If not, why have the early scene of Alfred telling him about going to that restaurant. It was a way to let Alfred know Bruce was alive. And I love that Selina is with him, wearing the pearls.
@WoodCraft Kits It's made pretty clear that Bruce was able to eject from the Bat and it flew the bomb away on autopilot. Also, as Eldritch pointed out, Selina is wearing Bruce's mother's pearls. That's further support that it really happened and wasn't just imagined by Alfred.
@WoodCraft Kits Why are you tried so hard to make bruce wayne died ? if it's just bruce wayne or alfred fantasy then selina wouldn't wear martha wayne's neckleace in the end lmao, what do you think those auto pilot has been fix scene for ? a joke ?
They wanted Bane to sound like an intelligent trained disciplined monster. Bane is intelligent in comics and breaks Batman's back there, too. Tom Hardy did fantastic.
Bane also did break out inmates from "Archambault asylum" in the comic's, just so he could fallow and technically "watch batman in action" t And show dominance.
Bane is my favorite Batman villain by far. He also figured out his identity without any help but didn’t reveal it because that would make things too easy and wanted to break the bat one on one. Bane is the best
The interesting thing about “the climb”, and more importantly the “jump” is that the rope’s weight is probably just enough to weigh a person down enough to NOT make the jump. But by not using the rope you are now able to make the jump successfully. It’s extremely clever.
That’s not it at all. Having the rope means you don’t fear the fall as you know you will survive so you don’t give everything you have to the jump whereas without it you are guaranteed to die if you fall so you fully commit to the jump. The adrenaline from the fear makes it possible.
@@bd4315 I think it’s both. That is a heavy rope and probably weighs enough to cut half a foot from your jump. Whether you have fear or not can change how far you jump but at some point you can only jump as far as you are capable of jumping. The rope would always knock your best jump down because of the weight.
@@pduidesign the whole point of that segment is about how he needs to be afraid of dying. The weight of the rope is not a factor otherwise it would be directly mentioned. They even have the bats come out on his final climb to trigger his fear as if you remember the bale Batman is afraid of bats. The weight of the rope would have a subjective effect depending on the individual’s strength, you are overthinking the scene my friend.
Favorite line in this is Bane, ever so gently placing a hand on Daggett's neck, and saying "Do you _feel_ in charge?" in such a quietly menacing tone... shivers.
Oh man i hadnt watched this one in a long time And Alfred saying "Im sorry, I failed you" while looking at Bruces parents graves almost got me crying And the way Alfreds wish of seeing Bruce with a wife someday was filled was so good
I feel like Bane in this movie is one of the most underrated villains ever. He isn't just physically very intimidating but also smart enough to outsmart Batman. I would even go as far as to say I was more scared of Bane than of the Joker, because you kinda knew there is no way Batman ever really loses a physical fight against him, and is kinda guaranteed to come out on top, but with Bane being so strong and Batman being at his lowest make it a much more interesting match. Its also kinda insane how they managed to make Bane look, because he really physically looks like he could take all of Batmans punches and seems nearly invincible
Agree. I just 2 months ago had surgery for it And he nailed what it looks and sounds like. When bane stood up using him for support... yeah, i felt that. Hard to describe the pain from a deep spinal injury.
Loved watching this series with you mate! The ending was real and not in Alfred’s head! Bruce fixed the auto pilot on ‘the bat’ so he survived, and went on to live with Selina after using the clean slate. John aka Robin is now taking up the mantle! Would be rad to see another trilogy of JGLs character, but hey dreams are free!
It was in Alfreds Head, Bruce Wayne Actually died, you think if he lived no one would spotted a famous billionaire out in public? Had it been Elon Musk, you think no one would recognize him?
Did you not catch that the software patch to repair the Bat's autopilot was fixed by Bruce himself (scene with Lucius at the end). So he wasn't in the Bat when the bomb exploded. Autopilot flew it out over the bay so he could escape. Thus he was alive with Selina at the end.
A thing you need to know about Christopher Nolan is he like sto do alot of improbable stunts physically on camera which he did with the planes at the start. He is truly a master of his craft. He really makes the characters feel very human in a superhero movie kind of way. All the charcters are superhuman but with very human vices. and tom hardy played the Pawn/Bodyguard to a perfect extent to allow the movie to flow the way it did.
I feel they should have either left Bane as the main villain (and not a bodyguard) or revealed that Miranda was behind everything earlier. That last minute twist was a bit underwhelming, especially the way Bane was taken out.
@@luxurybuzz3681 Jackie Chan likes to have a lot of wide-angle steady shots to actually show off his ability, though since he's pretty old now I bet Nolan could do something cool with him
watching these reaction videos makes you appreciate the movie more especially from a different point of view. DKR is such an emotional rollercoaster. hope you enjoyed Hawaii.
Earlier in the movie he says there's no autopilot (or that he couldn't get one working). At the end of the movie, after the bomb went off, Fox found out Bruce had patched the autopilot six months earlier.
Bruce definitely lived. They dropped hints earlier in the movie about the Bat not having autopilot so that we would see that he added it himself to survive that scene. And being Bruce, he knew exactly where Alfred went for his vacations so he made sure to be there. Also, that was the closure for Selina Kyle because she had tried to live down her criminal past but society wouldn’t let her. Bruce gave her the better life she deserved for doing the right thing and being good in the end.
The movie straight up says that Bruce patched the autopilot. When Alfred is berating Bruce in the Batcave, he also straight up tells him that when Bruce was first gone, he would go to Florence and wish Bruce was there with a wife.
This movie was inspired by two comic book arc. Knightfall, where Bane broke Batman's back, and No Man's Land where the US government cut off Gotham after an earthquake destroyed most of the city. Your reaction to Catwoman calling out Batman's stance on guns is great. I can't wait for your reaction to Batman V Superman.
Awesome reaction. This movie is very underrated and maybe the best out of the trilogy. Christopher Nolan is unbelievably creative and meticulously detailed in his writing and directing.
I think that you might really enjoy the take that Cinema Therapy has on this trilogy: the through line of the psychology truly resurrected the Batman character, even if audiences focused more on the gritty, realistic stunts
Fun fact: In other media with comic accurate Bane, his voice is actually a tad higher pitch than it is here, plus he has an Caribbean accent, as he's from a fictional Island called Santa Prisca.
24:39 To answer question about the hospital, yes, Gotham General Hospital was blown up in the previous movie. I just think this is the new General. A replacement. You know, like when a building is demolished so they can reshape stuff with it.
Same, It's menacing enough without it being a deep voice. And it gets tiring when almost every villain has that deep ass voice, it gets boring real quick😅
The stadium, btw, was Heinz Field in Pittsburgh and the football players used in the scene were actually the Pittsburgh Steelers. The kick returner was played by Heinz Ward while his teammates were the sideline
I'm gutted still we didn't get to see more of a Joseph Gordon-Levitt in another Batman as Robin - he was SO good! That twist at the end, leaving it until then however, to reveal his name, was genius!
He wouldn't play as The Robin. That wouldn't make sense. Who uses their own name as your hero name? Nightwing makes perfect sense. Inheritance of the bat cave seems reasonable.
@@silverdoeGirl I understand your reasoning. Though his real legal name is Robin. My name is legally Brandon but I go by a knickname. If I go and become a hero I'm not gonna go by the name of Brandon as my hero name.
A couple fun facts: the doctor Bruce sees about his knees is played by Thomas Lennon, best known from Reno 911 as Lt Dangle The Gotham Rogues were played by members of the Pittsburgh Steelers NFL team; most notably former Super Bowl MVP Hines Ward (the one who scores the touchdown as the stadium is being blown up).
As a knitter, I approve of this. 😂 I’m writing a paper on a knitting group as a discourse community and getting flack for it, how it’s “so hardcore,” and stuff. Well. Now that I know Bane was a knitter, I feel better. 😅
I loved this movie. The storytelling is so well done. Of course Bruce lived at the end…they were throwing hints throughout the movie to let you know it would happen that way from Alfred saying that he always visits that restaurant every so often to seeing if Bruce is there (Bruce made sure that he was present and could be seen by Alfred) and when Selina told him that Batman doesn’t owe anybody anything anymore and that he is given his all which is like saying you should QUIT while your ahead 😂. Brilliant movie!
As someone who was an extra in this movie and had the time of my life on set, I love watching reactions to it (especially from people I already subscribe to lol)
You definitely need to react to more Nolan movies if you haven’t seen them. Inception, Interstellar, Memento, The Prestige, Dunkirk, Tenet, Insomnia all are great with a few masterpieces in there
Remember that part where Lucius was talking to the applied sciences team (after the detonation) about the software patch that he thought was needed to have been previously made in order to fix the auto pilot on The Bat… They said it had already been fixed… by Bruce. So Bruce ditched somewhere over the shallow water, and The Bat continued on auto pilot out into the bay. The restaurant scene was not in Alfred‘s mind.
You think it can't get any more intense than the Joker... until you see this film. The pressure is just always on in this one. Incredibly good. One of the best trilogies every put to film.
32:21 the best way to cross ice like that is to crawl or go on your belly. Cuz when you stand, all of your weight is in one tiny spot. If you spread out, your weight is spread out making it easier for the ice to hold. So no, don’t run haha.
I didn't like this movie when it first came out. I felt it was a huge step down from the two previous entries in the trilogy, but it has definitely grown on me over the years and now I like it as much as the other two. The little details such as Bruce and Tate being the only ones at the party without masks because their public personas are already a mask and that bit at the end where Alfred sees Bruce across the cafe after he thought he was dead and he's not only with Selina but she's actually wearing his mother's pearls are just perfect. Batman doesn't usually get to retire and settle down, but in this movie it somehow worked, especially since he also set up his replacement with John Robin Blake.
I agree, though I think The Dark Knight is still better, in many ways. Think is equal to Batman Begins, though -- maybe a bit better. The theme/story is what holds this movie, not the action and such. This movie isn't better than I thought, it's deeper than I thought. The action, etc. itself is still pretty average, and nowhere near as good in purely filmic terms as the first two. P.S. I strongly disagree. It never works, and it didn't work here, either. And, there is no proof he is alive. It's left open, and there is strong evidence that he died. Alfred was just seeing a dream. Not real. It doesn't work within the comics or story of Batman for him to settle down with Catwoman. It's purely a dream. It's like if Santa became the Devil to open a candle shop and then had five husbands. Sure, somebody could write that story. But, it doesn't make sense. Just like Batman settling down with Catwoman doesn't make sense. It's anti-history, anti-Batman, anti-logic, and anti-symbolism.
Anne Hathaway was perfect as Catwoman in this film. Tom Hardy was amazing as Bane, but she was probably my favourite part of this film tbh, and exactly what I expect an anti-villain to be like lol. It would be cool to see Alex react to Halle Berry's Catwoman someday. It's not as good as this ofc, but it's still interesting & entertaining.
This really is a great movie! I loved Tom Hardy as Bane and felt the story really wrapped this Batman trilogy well. Loved how the pit was a reminder of Bruce falling in the well... ' why do we fall?' Also loved the vision of Ra's AL Ghul. Loved the final battle with Bane.. just the music and how this was one scene where Batman fights in daylight.
It would be rather odd for Alfred to dream about Bruce sitting there with Selena who he's never met. I think the autopilot being fixed was a clear nod to say he's alive
Most people didn't like Bane's voice when the movie was released but then again people didn't like Bale's Batman voice either. But they grow on you and are realistic. Nolan tried to keep his trilogy more grounded than what some were expecting and that's why it's so damn good.
Hey Alex, I have a question for the Marvel series. Will you be watching the TV shows as well as the movies? I ask because some moments in future movies won't make sense without watching the shows.
Batman lives... at the same time, that name drop of Robin, yea... your reaction to the name drop was awesome... and the rest of it after was just so great.
One thing I want to point out that I think most people overlook/ignore (as it was in the movie itself). Bruce Wayne wouldn't have lost everything in the end. The attack on the stock market, the proof that someone did something to make trades during and shortly after the attack, would have halted trading and those stock trades would have been investigated. Federally. It would have been discovered that they were not legal authorized trades, and they would have been restored to pre-attack levels. Much like how trading on the NYSE was halted when the terrorist attacks of 9/11 happened IRL. Wayne's fortune would have been saved/restored and Alfred would have been a very wealthy man (aside from whatever Bruce set aside for himself, and to fund JGL's character).
Damn good movie, the first time I went to the movies alone I watched this one, the experience of a completely silent theater and people being in awe and anticipation was sooo good. One of the best experiences I had ever. Love that you felt that level of excitement too! ❤️
I'm sad the twist wasn't a shock to me when I seen this in theaters. Given she REALLY looked like the daughter from the Batman animated series, I figured it's who she indeed was in the movie and thus the one from the prison.
The prisoners in that ancient prison can get out anytime they want. They have a rope. They have metal down there. Break off a piece of metal, bend it into a grappling hook, tie it to the rope. Climb up as high as you can, then heave that rope with the hook up over the edge. Climb out.
It's strongly hinted that Wayne survives but it's not confirmed outright, which I think is a genius move on Nolan's part, as the final scene matches so closely to Alfred's fantasy concerning Bruce (god, that sounds weird)... Also, your reaction to the Robin namedrop gives me life ^.^
You seem to have missed where they said someone fixed the autopilot in the Bat at the end. Meaning Bruce faked his death so he could live a life of peace like Alfred wanted.
I love this film. Personally I prefer it to the Dark Knight, I know I know, it's a matter of taste. I love the allusions to the french revolutions, with Bane as a Napoleon figure, a revolutionary who became a dictator and Bane knitting in the Scarecrow's courtroom is a reference to the old ladies who would do so, chuckling over Robespierre's death sentences. Even Bane's lovely coat is a reference to the frock coats of the time. The suggestion that if something isn't done about inequality then someone else, someone very bad might do something about it. The suffering of the French people was real, but the nobility preferred to throw balls - like the Charity dinner we see - and lord it over the people instead of helping them, and things reached a tipping point and for all the noble intent of the revolution it led to The Terror. I also love the psychology and mind-games. Bane literally Batmans Batman. He's a shadowy figure of mystery and legend with no real past and impossible power. To quote R'as Al Ghul, he became more than just a man in the minds of his enemies. Meanwhile, he calls Batman Bruce, humanising him and robbing him of his power against ordinary people. He turns Batman into an ordinary man in a cape. At the film's climax, Bruce has done what seems impossible to Bane, and succeeded in escaping the prison as only Talia, Bane's messiah has done. He's gained a little of her magic and restored himself to a symbol, and he knows Banes' story, humanising him and turning him, once more, into just a man in a mask. I really love the score, too. Deshi deshi basaran basaran!
Alex Im so glad you've been reacting to movies, specifically enjoyed your reactions to this Nolan TDK trilogy. I've been a fan of yours since back when you reacted to Unsainted by Slipknot lol I'm just enjoying this progression. What most of us "reactor viewers" I think want is to enjoy the film experience again by watching it with you, its like watching with a friend. Surely you know this because you're so good at it. Simple tedious but hard effort type work when you add in the editing and stuff, just want you to know I appreciate it!
13:02 "Eight years... and he has to pick tonight." "He's drawing the cops off of Bane." (Bane's got a 3-Star Wanted Level, but Batman has a 6-Star Wanted Level. I do want to add, that while that particular officer was kind of being a dick, staying on the Batman was the right call given the info he had.)
The best of the 3. Bain is such a badass gracious antagonist. Cat woman done right and mature Robin live this film. I love Baine is so courteous and intelligent while veing so vicious of an antagonist.
so this came out the same summer as the first Avengers movie & somehow BOTH of them decided that they needed to end with the hero flying a nuke out of the city.
Captain America: Civil War vs Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice came out together as well. Guardians of the Galaxy vs Suicide Squad too. Avengers: Infinity War vs Justice League too. In all instances MCU had the better movie imo.
@WoodCraft Kits oh me too. I enjoy them all... but Marvel took their time establishing their universe while it's easy to see Warner Bros hasn't let Snyder do the same.
@WoodCraft Kits I didn't have a problem with how dark it was. I had a problem with all of the main characters not getting their origin stories aside from Superman before getting thrown into a team up film. Wonder Woman and Batman in BvS:DoJ and the likes of Aquaman, Flash, and Cyborg in JL. Batman once again in Suicide Squad. It's as if Warner Bros just wanted to cram everything in at once.
@@RobGamesOn Also, Iron Man and The Dark Knight released just months apart. Iron Man is pretty good, but you can't say that it's better than _The Dark Knight_ with a straight face.
@@Mate_Antal_Zoltan The Dark Knight wasn't part of a larger universe with other superheroes either. It was part of a standalone Batman Trilogy. I'm comparing the MCU to the DCEU.
A lot of this movie was filmed in Pittsburgh down the street from where I was staying. I had a heart and lung transplant in 2010 and spent 18 months out there and got to see the "camp" where the actors and directors trailers were set up and at the end of the street I stayed on, one of the military bat mobile tumbler vehicles was parked. Most of the streets were closed sets so we couldn't see much but some of the materials used to make the buildings look burned are still on the buildings, or were there as of 2019/2020.
I remember watching this movie when it came out. I was *pissed* that Bane was being revealed as Raj's son. So much so that it took me out of the movie for a while until the Miranda reveal. It bugged me so much to think that they were altering the character so drastically. Then it turned out that they weren't. I've since softened on this movie a ton. It really is better than I thought it was when I was 20.
Ditto. I was not impressed. And I’m still kind of unhappy about the injury-as-a-learning-opportunity trope. In movies a lot of the time someone gets seriously hurt and they just bounce back and are even incredibly physically active. In real life… pain often becomes chronic and it can wreck and ruin lives, especially if the people around the person in pain aren’t supportive and don’t get it. Seeing this kind of portrayal so commonly in media sets up this expectation that you just fight really hard to get back to where you were and you can do it. Just have determination and sheer willpower and you can get back to normal. That’s really damaging. It implies that people who suffer and don’t improve to pre-injury levels of activity are not worthy or lesser than, that they just don’t have enough drive. It’s seen as weak. I don’t dislike the movie as a whole as much as I did when it was in theaters. But I still… the use of the trope alone keeps it from being in the realm of a great movie for me. 🤷🏻♀️
Also would have been awesome to see the actor who played Robin actually become nightwing/batman I think it would have been awesome to see him take up that role
Best thing about this over the other two, is that it’s the first and only time you ever see Batman fully dressed up in broad daylight It’s epic when you think about it
As a brazilian, I saw the dubbed movie first, and although i like Tom Hardy a lot, I thought Bane much more intimidating and dark with the brazilian dubbing, done by Guilherme Briggs. Maybe you want to check out a brief comparison, just search for "Comparação entre a voz de Bane: Áudio Original e Dublagem"
I love this movie movie so much I have nearly every Bane and Alfred line memorized by now. It'll be cool to see what you think of The Batman if you ever watch it, I love TDK Trilogy but the new one I might like more just because it's got everything I've always wanted from a Live Action Batman with all the Detective work
Yes! I'm also always impressed by Selena Kyle's acting/screaming in that bar scene and then realize: Duh! It's Anne Hathaway 🙂 This trilogi is AMAZING and please think of it as such - a TRILOGI, no need to compare the three movies against eachother.
That part where Bruce comes back at the end, living that life with Selina (Catwoman) is such a twist, my guess is to how he survives is because “HE’S BATMAN!” Nah, jk, I think he just set the Bat to autopilot and escaped before it exploded. Far enough out where nobody could see him do it. Such a great moment in an awesome movie that is part of an absolutely epic trilogy!
Ben Mendos line about peeing into majon jars is a reference to Howard Hughes who was an Eccentric Billionaire Inventor/Film Maker of the early 90s. He's who Leonardo Dicaprios character is based off of in the Aviator. An amazing movie if you've never seen it.
One thing I love about this movie is Bane says in the sewer "I didn't see the light until I was already a man" which basically gives away the twist but only to people who were super observant
Alex, listen to the details, man. When Lucius is talking to Bruce about "The Bat" he says the autopilot doesn't work. When batman hooks up the reactor he says he has to fly it out because there's no autopilot. Later when it shows Lucius talking with the two techs they say the autopilot was patched by Bruce Wayne. He finally found a way to step away from that life. Alfred did see him, because Bruce wanted to let him know and also fulfil Alfred's little fantasy.

It always amazed me how massive and imposing they managed to make Bane look compared to Batman when Tom Hardy is much shorter than Christian Bale irl
that's pretty crazy didn't know that

THE CLEAN SLATE, CLEAN AS A CLEAN SLATE
Did you not catch that the software patch to repair the Bat's autopilot was fixed by Bruce himself (scene with Lucius at the end). So he wasn't in the Bat when the bomb exploded. Autopilot flew it out over the bay so he could escape. Thus he was alive with Selina at the end.
Always a shock how few people catch this quick little scene.
A thing you need to know about Christopher Nolan is he like sto do alot of improbable stunts physically on camera which he did with the planes at the start. He is truly a master of his craft. He really makes the characters feel very human in a superhero movie kind of way. All the charcters are superhuman but with very human vices. and tom hardy played the Pawn/Bodyguard to a perfect extent to allow the movie to flow the way it did.
He should do a movie with Tom Cruise or Jackie Chan lol
I feel they should have either left Bane as the main villain (and not a bodyguard) or revealed that Miranda was behind everything earlier. That last minute twist was a bit underwhelming, especially the way Bane was taken out.
Literally none of the characters are superhuman.
@@luxurybuzz3681 Jackie Chan likes to have a lot of wide-angle steady shots to actually show off his ability, though since he's pretty old now I bet Nolan could do something cool with him
@@markgoguen8698 Bane was the main villain but I agree about Talia's twist lol. Her death was especially silly too
watching these reaction videos makes you appreciate the movie more especially from a different point of view. DKR is such an emotional rollercoaster. hope you enjoyed Hawaii.
There’s a throwaway line earlier in the movie when Fox says someone patched the autopilot problem…that’s how he survived
Earlier in the movie he says there's no autopilot (or that he couldn't get one working). At the end of the movie, after the bomb went off, Fox found out Bruce had patched the autopilot six months earlier.
Bruce definitely lived. They dropped hints earlier in the movie about the Bat not having autopilot so that we would see that he added it himself to survive that scene. And being Bruce, he knew exactly where Alfred went for his vacations so he made sure to be there. Also, that was the closure for Selina Kyle because she had tried to live down her criminal past but society wouldn’t let her. Bruce gave her the better life she deserved for doing the right thing and being good in the end.
@WoodCraft Kits Nah, they outright tell you that Bruce fixed the autopilot. While I wouldn't mind him dying there, I completely believe he lived
The movie straight up says that Bruce patched the autopilot. When Alfred is berating Bruce in the Batcave, he also straight up tells him that when Bruce was first gone, he would go to Florence and wish Bruce was there with a wife.
This movie was inspired by two comic book arc. Knightfall, where Bane broke Batman's back, and No Man's Land where the US government cut off Gotham after an earthquake destroyed most of the city.
Your reaction to Catwoman calling out Batman's stance on guns is great. I can't wait for your reaction to Batman V Superman.
thanks for tuning in!
i thought the dark Knight returns comic book was also in this?
Awesome reaction. This movie is very underrated and maybe the best out of the trilogy. Christopher Nolan is unbelievably creative and meticulously detailed in his writing and directing.
thank you so much! it's so good
@@alexhefnerstvmovievault appreciate the response and can't wait to see your next video.
It’s actually my favorite
The cast is unreal. It`s packed with fantastic actors :) Great reaction, Alex :)
Christopher Nolan knows how to start a movie! Tom Hardy nailed the character bane! That whole opening sequence is a masterpiece!
I think that you might really enjoy the take that Cinema Therapy has on this trilogy: the through line of the psychology truly resurrected the Batman character, even if audiences focused more on the gritty, realistic stunts
Fun fact: In other media with comic accurate Bane, his voice is actually a tad higher pitch than it is here, plus he has an Caribbean accent, as he's from a fictional Island called Santa Prisca.
I believe he's cuban
@@juanvargas-qz6vd Nope, I didn't just guess this, I looked it up. He's Carribean, but does sound a bit Cuban.
@@JockyCGE in BTAS is revealed he's cuban , he gets hired by a mob boss and he speaks Spanish
I can’t wait for you to react to Robert Pattinson’s The Batman
24:39 To answer question about the hospital, yes, Gotham General Hospital was blown up in the previous movie. I just think this is the new General. A replacement. You know, like when a building is demolished so they can reshape stuff with it.
I have always loved Bane's voice
Same, It's menacing enough without it being a deep voice. And it gets tiring when almost every villain has that deep ass voice, it gets boring real quick😅
I love the fact that Bruce and Selina ended up together in that final scene.
In the end you see Lucius Fox realizing Bruce had fixed the autopilot.
The stadium, btw, was Heinz Field in Pittsburgh and the football players used in the scene were actually the Pittsburgh Steelers. The kick returner was played by Heinz Ward while his teammates were the sideline
I'm gutted still we didn't get to see more of a Joseph Gordon-Levitt in another Batman as Robin - he was SO good! That twist at the end, leaving it until then however, to reveal his name, was genius!
@WoodCraft Kits He would have been good as either - He suited the role perfectly.
@WoodCraft Kits I mean.. Nightwing is still robin so I guess yeah 🤣
He wouldn't play as The Robin. That wouldn't make sense. Who uses their own name as your hero name? Nightwing makes perfect sense. Inheritance of the bat cave seems reasonable.
@@brandonlozier4404 But he didn't use his real name at first...
@@silverdoeGirl I understand your reasoning. Though his real legal name is Robin. My name is legally Brandon but I go by a knickname. If I go and become a hero I'm not gonna go by the name of Brandon as my hero name.
A couple fun facts: the doctor Bruce sees about his knees is played by Thomas Lennon, best known from Reno 911 as Lt Dangle
The Gotham Rogues were played by members of the Pittsburgh Steelers NFL team; most notably former Super Bowl MVP Hines Ward (the one who scores the touchdown as the stadium is being blown up).
My favourite thing about this film is that during the courtroom scene, Bane is sat in the background just casually knitting.
As a knitter, I approve of this. 😂 I’m writing a paper on a knitting group as a discourse community and getting flack for it, how it’s “so hardcore,” and stuff. Well. Now that I know Bane was a knitter, I feel better. 😅
The Dark Knight Trilogy is absolutely one of the best in superhero and film history.
yep for sure!
"Eight inch nails, peeing into mason jars" is a reference to Howard Hughes.
"Who's this chick, just stealing ~purrs~...?" couldn't be a better slip of the tongue when the answer is Catwoman ha ha.
Even though I know Bruce makes it at the end, I weep every time Alfred apologizes to the Waynes at the grace side.
yep very sad! thanks for watching Rebecca
I loved this movie. The storytelling is so well done. Of course Bruce lived at the end…they were throwing hints throughout the movie to let you know it would happen that way from Alfred saying that he always visits that restaurant every so often to seeing if Bruce is there (Bruce made sure that he was present and could be seen by Alfred) and when Selina told him that Batman doesn’t owe anybody anything anymore and that he is given his all which is like saying you should QUIT while your ahead 😂. Brilliant movie!
As someone who was an extra in this movie and had the time of my life on set, I love watching reactions to it (especially from people I already subscribe to lol)
You definitely need to react to more Nolan movies if you haven’t seen them. Inception, Interstellar, Memento, The Prestige, Dunkirk, Tenet, Insomnia all are great with a few masterpieces in there
Remember that part where Lucius was talking to the applied sciences team (after the detonation) about the software patch that he thought was needed to have been previously made in order to fix the auto pilot on The Bat…
They said it had already been fixed… by Bruce.
So Bruce ditched somewhere over the shallow water, and The Bat continued on auto pilot out into the bay.
The restaurant scene was not in Alfred‘s mind.
You think it can't get any more intense than the Joker... until you see this film. The pressure is just always on in this one. Incredibly good. One of the best trilogies every put to film.
32:21 the best way to cross ice like that is to crawl or go on your belly. Cuz when you stand, all of your weight is in one tiny spot. If you spread out, your weight is spread out making it easier for the ice to hold.
So no, don’t run haha.
I didn't like this movie when it first came out. I felt it was a huge step down from the two previous entries in the trilogy, but it has definitely grown on me over the years and now I like it as much as the other two. The little details such as Bruce and Tate being the only ones at the party without masks because their public personas are already a mask and that bit at the end where Alfred sees Bruce across the cafe after he thought he was dead and he's not only with Selina but she's actually wearing his mother's pearls are just perfect. Batman doesn't usually get to retire and settle down, but in this movie it somehow worked, especially since he also set up his replacement with John Robin Blake.
I agree, though I think The Dark Knight is still better, in many ways. Think is equal to Batman Begins, though -- maybe a bit better. The theme/story is what holds this movie, not the action and such. This movie isn't better than I thought, it's deeper than I thought. The action, etc. itself is still pretty average, and nowhere near as good in purely filmic terms as the first two.
P.S. I strongly disagree. It never works, and it didn't work here, either. And, there is no proof he is alive. It's left open, and there is strong evidence that he died. Alfred was just seeing a dream. Not real. It doesn't work within the comics or story of Batman for him to settle down with Catwoman. It's purely a dream. It's like if Santa became the Devil to open a candle shop and then had five husbands. Sure, somebody could write that story. But, it doesn't make sense. Just like Batman settling down with Catwoman doesn't make sense. It's anti-history, anti-Batman, anti-logic, and anti-symbolism.
>I felt it was a huge step down
You try following up The Dark fucking Knight, man.
Anne Hathaway was perfect as Catwoman in this film. Tom Hardy was amazing as Bane, but she was probably my favourite part of this film tbh, and exactly what I expect an anti-villain to be like lol.
It would be cool to see Alex react to Halle Berry's Catwoman someday. It's not as good as this ofc, but it's still interesting & entertaining.
This really is a great movie! I loved Tom Hardy as Bane and felt the story really wrapped this Batman trilogy well. Loved how the pit was a reminder of Bruce falling in the well... ' why do we fall?' Also loved the vision of Ra's AL Ghul. Loved the final battle with Bane.. just the music and how this was one scene where Batman fights in daylight.
It would be rather odd for Alfred to dream about Bruce sitting there with Selena who he's never met. I think the autopilot being fixed was a clear nod to say he's alive
less of a nod and more of headbang
photos that were blocked out must have been too graphic... sorry guys ;)
I'm technically the first to like and comment on your comment. But I've achieved both!
You have to watch The Batman now
Most people didn't like Bane's voice when the movie was released but then again people didn't like Bale's Batman voice either. But they grow on you and are realistic. Nolan tried to keep his trilogy more grounded than what some were expecting and that's why it's so damn good.
Hey Alex, I have a question for the Marvel series. Will you be watching the TV shows as well as the movies? I ask because some moments in future movies won't make sense without watching the shows.
Autopilot was fixed by bruce, scene at end with fox. Bruce was alive
Batman lives... at the same time, that name drop of Robin, yea... your reaction to the name drop was awesome... and the rest of it after was just so great.
One thing I want to point out that I think most people overlook/ignore (as it was in the movie itself). Bruce Wayne wouldn't have lost everything in the end. The attack on the stock market, the proof that someone did something to make trades during and shortly after the attack, would have halted trading and those stock trades would have been investigated. Federally. It would have been discovered that they were not legal authorized trades, and they would have been restored to pre-attack levels. Much like how trading on the NYSE was halted when the terrorist attacks of 9/11 happened IRL. Wayne's fortune would have been saved/restored and Alfred would have been a very wealthy man (aside from whatever Bruce set aside for himself, and to fund JGL's character).
thanks for all that info!
I can't tell which is my favorite moment in this movie, but it's either Bruce letting Gordon know who he is or Alfred at the cemetery.
For me, it's Alfred seeing Bruce at the end of the movie, and just nodding in silent agreement. They both deserve it.
Damn good movie, the first time I went to the movies alone I watched this one, the experience of a completely silent theater and people being in awe and anticipation was sooo good. One of the best experiences I had ever.
Love that you felt that level of excitement too! ❤️
I'm sad the twist wasn't a shock to me when I seen this in theaters. Given she REALLY looked like the daughter from the Batman animated series, I figured it's who she indeed was in the movie and thus the one from the prison.
Easily my favorite of the trilogy. Bane is a perfect villain, and that voice, that power, that potency.
In the beginning, Bruce Wayne had to die so Batman could be born. In the end, Batman had to die for Bruce Wayne to live.
thanks for that!
@@alexhefnerstvmovievault anytime!
The prisoners in that ancient prison can get out anytime they want. They have a rope. They have metal down there. Break off a piece of metal, bend it into a grappling hook, tie it to the rope. Climb up as high as you can, then heave that rope with the hook up over the edge. Climb out.
It's strongly hinted that Wayne survives but it's not confirmed outright, which I think is a genius move on Nolan's part, as the final scene matches so closely to Alfred's fantasy concerning Bruce (god, that sounds weird)...
Also, your reaction to the Robin namedrop gives me life ^.^
To be fair, he did tell that exact fantasy to Bruce, so he knew where to go when he "made it"
You seem to have missed where they said someone fixed the autopilot in the Bat at the end. Meaning Bruce faked his death so he could live a life of peace like Alfred wanted.
makes sense now!
He lied about not developing an autopilot. He’s alive with Selina.
Best thing about this trilogy was the music score.
The writing, the action scenes and the rest was great, but the music made this trilogy.
Bruce fixed the autopilot on The Bat.
I love this film. Personally I prefer it to the Dark Knight, I know I know, it's a matter of taste. I love the allusions to the french revolutions, with Bane as a Napoleon figure, a revolutionary who became a dictator and Bane knitting in the Scarecrow's courtroom is a reference to the old ladies who would do so, chuckling over Robespierre's death sentences. Even Bane's lovely coat is a reference to the frock coats of the time. The suggestion that if something isn't done about inequality then someone else, someone very bad might do something about it. The suffering of the French people was real, but the nobility preferred to throw balls - like the Charity dinner we see - and lord it over the people instead of helping them, and things reached a tipping point and for all the noble intent of the revolution it led to The Terror.
I also love the psychology and mind-games. Bane literally Batmans Batman. He's a shadowy figure of mystery and legend with no real past and impossible power. To quote R'as Al Ghul, he became more than just a man in the minds of his enemies. Meanwhile, he calls Batman Bruce, humanising him and robbing him of his power against ordinary people. He turns Batman into an ordinary man in a cape. At the film's climax, Bruce has done what seems impossible to Bane, and succeeded in escaping the prison as only Talia, Bane's messiah has done. He's gained a little of her magic and restored himself to a symbol, and he knows Banes' story, humanising him and turning him, once more, into just a man in a mask.
I really love the score, too. Deshi deshi basaran basaran!
The prison is a Lazarus pit
The "Wait for it..." moments I had watching your reaction. 😊😊😊
Love your reaction videos😎😇
i love you!
Alex Im so glad you've been reacting to movies, specifically enjoyed your reactions to this Nolan TDK trilogy. I've been a fan of yours since back when you reacted to Unsainted by Slipknot lol I'm just enjoying this progression. What most of us "reactor viewers" I think want is to enjoy the film experience again by watching it with you, its like watching with a friend. Surely you know this because you're so good at it. Simple tedious but hard effort type work when you add in the editing and stuff, just want you to know I appreciate it!
"Goodbye afred." And seeing alfred cry because he felt like he failed him made me cry like a baby it was so sad
Anyone else’s sound and video unsync at the 7:40 mark?
13:02
"Eight years... and he has to pick tonight."
"He's drawing the cops off of Bane."
(Bane's got a 3-Star Wanted Level, but Batman has a 6-Star Wanted Level. I do want to add, that while that particular officer was kind of being a dick, staying on the Batman was the right call given the info he had.)
Bane in this movie sounds like Sean Connery playing Darth Vader 😂
Watched yesterday and it was fine now there is some kind of glitch at 7:37 that makes the video and audio out of sync.
Lucius found out Bruce fixed the autopilot
The best of the 3. Bain is such a badass gracious antagonist. Cat woman done right and mature Robin live this film.
I love Baine is so courteous and intelligent while veing so vicious of an antagonist.
so this came out the same summer as the first Avengers movie & somehow BOTH of them decided that they needed to end with the hero flying a nuke out of the city.
Captain America: Civil War vs Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice came out together as well.
Guardians of the Galaxy vs Suicide Squad too.
Avengers: Infinity War vs Justice League too.
In all instances MCU had the better movie imo.
@WoodCraft Kits oh me too. I enjoy them all... but Marvel took their time establishing their universe while it's easy to see Warner Bros hasn't let Snyder do the same.
@WoodCraft Kits I didn't have a problem with how dark it was. I had a problem with all of the main characters not getting their origin stories aside from Superman before getting thrown into a team up film. Wonder Woman and Batman in BvS:DoJ and the likes of Aquaman, Flash, and Cyborg in JL.
Batman once again in Suicide Squad. It's as if Warner Bros just wanted to cram everything in at once.
@@RobGamesOn Also, Iron Man and The Dark Knight released just months apart. Iron Man is pretty good, but you can't say that it's better than _The Dark Knight_ with a straight face.
@@Mate_Antal_Zoltan The Dark Knight wasn't part of a larger universe with other superheroes either. It was part of a standalone Batman Trilogy. I'm comparing the MCU to the DCEU.
A lot of this movie was filmed in Pittsburgh down the street from where I was staying. I had a heart and lung transplant in 2010 and spent 18 months out there and got to see the "camp" where the actors and directors trailers were set up and at the end of the street I stayed on, one of the military bat mobile tumbler vehicles was parked. Most of the streets were closed sets so we couldn't see much but some of the materials used to make the buildings look burned are still on the buildings, or were there as of 2019/2020.
Bruce patched the auto pilot in the bat and you cut that whole part where they explained that to fox. Bruce is alive
35:48 Loved the Detective Quinn from Dexter shoutout.
I remember watching this movie when it came out. I was *pissed* that Bane was being revealed as Raj's son. So much so that it took me out of the movie for a while until the Miranda reveal. It bugged me so much to think that they were altering the character so drastically. Then it turned out that they weren't. I've since softened on this movie a ton. It really is better than I thought it was when I was 20.
Hope you learned from that to never criticize a movie's plot before you've watched it till the end😂
Ditto. I was not impressed. And I’m still kind of unhappy about the injury-as-a-learning-opportunity trope. In movies a lot of the time someone gets seriously hurt and they just bounce back and are even incredibly physically active. In real life… pain often becomes chronic and it can wreck and ruin lives, especially if the people around the person in pain aren’t supportive and don’t get it.
Seeing this kind of portrayal so commonly in media sets up this expectation that you just fight really hard to get back to where you were and you can do it. Just have determination and sheer willpower and you can get back to normal. That’s really damaging. It implies that people who suffer and don’t improve to pre-injury levels of activity are not worthy or lesser than, that they just don’t have enough drive. It’s seen as weak.
I don’t dislike the movie as a whole as much as I did when it was in theaters. But I still… the use of the trope alone keeps it from being in the realm of a great movie for me. 🤷🏻♀️
I do love that in the whole plane scene ……. They did it all practically. That’s real! I love it !
that's so crazy!
Also would have been awesome to see the actor who played Robin actually become nightwing/batman I think it would have been awesome to see him take up that role
Me too, I would love to see a Nightwing or Batman movie with him in it.
Best thing about this over the other two, is that it’s the first and only time you ever see Batman fully dressed up in broad daylight
It’s epic when you think about it
As a brazilian, I saw the dubbed movie first, and although i like Tom Hardy a lot, I thought Bane much more intimidating and dark with the brazilian dubbing, done by Guilherme Briggs. Maybe you want to check out a brief comparison, just search for "Comparação entre a voz de Bane: Áudio Original e Dublagem"
Welcome back bro hope your vacation was amazing and you all had a great time. Looking forward to this reaction
Am I the only one who has the whole vid out of sync after 7:40?
30:42 - this scene was shoot in The Mehrangarh fort, Jodhpur district, Rajasthan state(western part of India)🦇🔥💯🤘
I love this movie movie so much I have nearly every Bane and Alfred line memorized by now.
It'll be cool to see what you think of The Batman if you ever watch it, I love TDK Trilogy but the new one I might like more just because it's got everything I've always wanted from a Live Action Batman with all the Detective work
5:50 Anne Hathaway flexing her Acting skills on screen for us all to see
chris nolan said it wasnt in alfreds head. it was bruce still alive
Bro you so need to see all of these in IMAX - that opening (um yeah - all practical) is truly astounding.
Yes! I'm also always impressed by Selena Kyle's acting/screaming in that bar scene and then realize: Duh! It's Anne Hathaway 🙂 This trilogi is AMAZING and please think of it as such - a TRILOGI, no need to compare the three movies against eachother.
*trilogy
That part where Bruce comes back at the end, living that life with Selina (Catwoman) is such a twist, my guess is to how he survives is because “HE’S BATMAN!” Nah, jk, I think he just set the Bat to autopilot and escaped before it exploded. Far enough out where nobody could see him do it.
Such a great moment in an awesome movie that is part of an absolutely epic trilogy!
“Is that in Alfred’s mind??!??” Does that mean Inception is on the horizon? 🤔 As always, great reaction sir! Be safe and well everyone-
37:40 this got me 😂😂 Great reaction bro, amazing channel
Audio/video out of sync for anyone else?
Bane voice in this movie remains the best voice for a villain in movie history
Ben Mendos line about peeing into majon jars is a reference to Howard Hughes who was an Eccentric Billionaire Inventor/Film Maker of the early 90s. He's who Leonardo Dicaprios character is based off of in the Aviator. An amazing movie if you've never seen it.
39:35 - Did u missed the part about Fox asking the techicians "The Bat" autopilot was fixed ?
One thing I love about this movie is Bane says in the sewer "I didn't see the light until I was already a man" which basically gives away the twist but only to people who were super observant
I don't know is it me or the video, but the video and audio don't match start from 7:38
Alex, listen to the details, man. When Lucius is talking to Bruce about "The Bat" he says the autopilot doesn't work. When batman hooks up the reactor he says he has to fly it out because there's no autopilot. Later when it shows Lucius talking with the two techs they say the autopilot was patched by Bruce Wayne. He finally found a way to step away from that life. Alfred did see him, because Bruce wanted to let him know and also fulfil Alfred's little fantasy.
I love rewatching these movies with your reactions.
