Gary Oldman has two kinds of roles: Ones where you see him and realize, “That’s Gary Oldman!”, and ones where you see him named in the end credits and go, “THAT was Gary Oldman?"
He's my favorite actor. He's one of those few that can completely transform himself and have it be totally believable.
Exhibit A: True Romance
Even when he looks the same, he's able to give off a totally different energy in different roles.
5th element. I still can't see him in his character.
A young me had my mind blown away when i learnt that Commissioner Gordon was Sirius Black all along.
Dude slipped through the veil and joined the GCPD.
The Whole World: "Do we REALLY need to see Batman's origin story again? We have seen his parents killed a dozen times at this point!"
Nat: "Is he an orphan?"
"Why does he call himself Batman?"
Yeah but like... this movie already exists. If someone doesn't know Batman's origin story, you could just tell them to go watch this.
That's what I liked with the Marvel Spiderman movies. A pre-killed Uncle Ben means we don't have to watch it yet again.
I honestly always love it when that scene is in a Batman movie. Just feels wrong if they don't put it in.
@@DivineFalcon The only good thing about Spiderman then, right?
“I feel like Lucius is going to die because I like him”
Guys, we broke Natalie with GoT
I think George broke her, not us haha
To "control" the bats, Batman was sending out a very high pitched, distress like signal for them to echolocate. Far fetched? Yes. Cool? Also yes.
that's definitely the most far fetched moment in the film.
@@arsedoctor nothing is too far fetched to Batman
@@arsedoctor I think the concept of Batman as a whole is the most far fetched part
@@arsedoctor it's taken straight from a comic so that's probably why lol
Well beyond current cutting edge tech certainly...outside of what is possible for a (slightly unhinged?) billionaire? Also a direct lift from the comic this movie is mostly based on Batman Year One.
Natalie: “He’s got a flair for the dramatic...”
“Theatricality and deception are powerful agents, Natalie.”
Powerful agents to the uninitiated, but we are initiated, aren’t we?
@@ALJ9000 you merely adopted being a drama queen. I was born into it.
@@BrokenGodEnt Molded by it...
@@kggresham I didn't see comedy until I was already a man.
@@waibhavkrishnaChandra By then it was blinding…
"Is Rachel going to be permanently messed up?". yeah, not immediately though, but by the next movie she's basically a different person.
Hah!
Yeah, it's always weird when we have to see the same character with two different faces.
Bruh!
Lol
😂
"Is Rachel going to be permanently messed up", well she's not really herself later.
Permanently messed up is what she will be in the next movie...
Aaaaaaaaaahhh I see what you did there.
I'm still sad about that
@@joeypotter6051 Sorry... #toosoon...
imo she started out messed up.
The thing I love about this movie is how well Gary Oldman "plays down" to the role. He's the best Commissioner Gordon I've ever seen and the truest to the comic book. Almost all the roles he's known for are dialled up to 11 and completely unstable (The Professional, Immortal Beloved, Sid & Nancy, Fifth Element). You're exactly right, everybody in this movie is so "theatrical," and his performance is so muted and gentle in contrast to the costumed melodrama happening around him. It's a really good performance BECAUSE he doesn't stand out.
In "The Professional" he's like the Gordon's antithesis or an elsewolrd Gordon... but he's great in that movie!
@@Master_of_Merol81 EVERYONE!
@LukeMaynard really good comment
The most important thing is that we get you experiencing Heath Ledger’s joker for the first time
@Ben Franklin Why so serious?
If Brandon Lee was still alive...I think he would have been cast instead of Heath Ledger.
@@ALJ9000 that’s just it. He’s not
Eh, overrated. Don't get me wrong, Ledger did a good job. But the way the Joker he played was written was more as an ideologically driven anarchist with a visual theme of clowns. Now, Jack Nicholson's Joker was better conceived, IMO. Brutal, insane, amoral, and hysterical. Granted, of course, that the best Joker is Mark Hamill, any debate is really about who takes second place.
@@qawamity You should watch the clip of Willem Dafoe as the Joker. He is the perfect Joker without even trying.
My favorite line was always the last one:
Gordon: "I never said thank you."
Batman: "And you'll never have to."
Agreed
My favorite was Alfred: "Why do we fall? So we can learn to _pick ourselves up_ again."
Nice coat! :D
I agree, most commentators cut that part out of their reaction videos.
@@mart4414 yeah 😆👍
The guy who "makes them crazy" is a Batman villain called Scarecrow, btw.
Scarecrow, aka Dr Fauci...
@@Hiraghm innit Jonathan Crane ?
@@Hiraghm okay edgelord
"A very emotional Michael Caine" that's salt in Nolan's movie recipe.
He didn't have much emotion in Dunkirk, but then again he didn't have many lines (he was the person radioing Tom Hardy in the Spitfire)
"Lucius is going to die because I like him"
Nat has internalized Game of Thrones.
Hehehehe
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
As all should
GOT PTSD
I thought the exact same thing! hahaha
No, unfortunately he's here for all 3 movies... and if you saw the 3rd one, you knew this.
@@Hiraghm She saw it once 10 years ago and didn’t know what the hell was happening.
"Michael Cain seems to be a favorite casting choice by Christopher Nolan"
"Oh, you have no idea"
Good one 😂
I see what you did there. 🙂
I hear Brent's comment.
KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
@@chaost4544 in Michael Caine’s voice, yes 👍🏻
“They scream and they cry.” I love that character. Completly insane. The movie and the whole trilogy is fantastic, and has an amazing cast. Before this movie, i didn’t know that a superhero movie could feel so real and be so serious. Christopher Nolan is a genius.
"Tom Hardy and Gary Oldman are both chameleons."
Yeah.. About that..
th-cam.com/video/z8zIZWi9mPU/w-d-xo.html
No one cared about me until I put on the mask
Anyone else get pumped when she said “it’s not the second one”🤓
Yup. I literally sighed with relief.
@@petrusjnaude7279 Literally
Yup
I first saw the 2nd one from the trilogy 🤭
Yes I was really hoping it wasn’t that one lmao
Fun fact: Gary Oldman is such a chameleon that he had to relearn his original accent after playing so many different characters!
Pfft. A *real* actor would have to relearn his own name.
Now if we could only get Zorg v Batman, that'd be a movie.
*after spending so much time in the US. He was on the Graham Norton show and said he got a dialect coach to relearn his English accent after living in the US for so many years. The movie he was doing his accent for was Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, which won him an Oscar nomination.
@@evanflynn4680 He actually finally won his Oscar for _Darkest Hour,_ where he played Winston Churchill. That was a roll where he had to not only relearn his original accent, but to give it the unique inflections of Churchill himself. Who ever would have chosen Oldman to play Churchill to begin with? Chameleon indeed. One of the greatest actors of our generation. Perhaps _the_ greatest. (Although I can make a case for Ewan McGregor too.)
@@flatebo1 Sirius or Stansfield v Batman 🤣
@@tarmaque I didn't say he won an Oscar for Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, I said he won an Oscar nomination.
"You will never learn." Is one of my favorite lines in the film. And the way Liam Neeson delivered that line, it's a mixture of disbelief and disappointment. Love that line.
It's the line reading that makes the line memorable. Great actor making the most of the material.
yeah
one of my favorite lines in the film is "tell them that *joke* you know" ... lol apparently alfred only knows one joke and it was supposed to keep the guests entertained for god knows how long. XD
😆👍
"I like how that homeless man wasn't even phased by the violence happening around him." Welcome to Gotham.
Most Gothamites don't react to violence.
Gotham is so violent even other superheroes don't like going there.
"This looks really expensive!"
Have you seen the cast? Christian Bale, Gary Oldman, Michael Caine, Liam Neeson, Morgan Freeman, Katie Holmes.. they ain't cheap!
It's batman, you can't make a movie about a billionaire without money to spend on it
I think you can get a good deal for Katie Holmes now, Scientology did not help her career for the long run.
Aand Thomas Shelby 😅
Rutger Hauer anyone?
Canary's cheap.
"Was his dad Batman?" The Flashpoint comic and Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox have entered the chat.
Natalie : “Why not just bomb the city?”
The Front Door : *FBI OPEN UP!*
I laughed out loud.
Y’all I had headphones on and thought they were actually at my door. It’s 5:35am where I am !!
I was looking for this hoping it wasn’t just me
6 in the morning police at my door......
@@michaelblaine6494 I jumped lmao
wait, so what was that?
“What was the point of all those push ups if you can’t even lift a bloody log?”
Loved Alfred in that scene
This is easily one of my favorite Alfreds in any Batman story. The man has some of the best quotes in every film. I loved his suggesting that Bruce hide his identity to protect those close to him, saying "I was referring to myself"
"He's gonna blame himself forever!" Natalie, completely nailing Batman in one scene.
"Do you remember your parents?"
"Yes."
"Do you remember their smiles?"
"Yes."
"Do you remember times when they made you feel safe?"
"Yes."
"That's what you hold on to. That's what you can do for other people. You can give them safety. You can show them they are not alone."
-Planetary/Batman: Night on Earth
His anger outweighs his guilt.
Canonically Batman does not blame himself for his parent's death. Nor does he fear bats. Those touches were added by Nolan. And I've always thought them a bad idea, rather indicative of Nolan's failure to understand Batman.
Bruce adopted the bat motif because, as he says, criminals are a cowardly and superstitious lot. And thus liable to fear strange creatures of the night like bats.
Batman does, however, hold criminals responsible for the death of his parents. Originally the mugger who killed Thomas and Martha was unnamed, and never identified. Which makes any criminal a stand-in for the one who killed his parents. Thus Batman dedicates his life to his war on crime, seeking both to punish his parents' killer (who is likely to eventually attract batman's attention for some other crime) and to prevent any other kid from losing their parents the same way he did.
I guess the folks at DC eventually figured that Batman couldn't be the World's Greatest Detective if he couldn't even solve his own parents' murder, and so they gave him a name and had Batman put him away. This has always seemed a mistake to me. Catching his parents' killer undercuts Batman's primary motivation to fight crime. What drives Batman to seek vengeance upon criminals if he's already gotten his vengeance against the one criminal who mattered to him? And hell, in this movie, Joe Chill is dead long before Bruce becomes Batman, further weakening his motivation.
Which is why I've said ever since this movie came out - It's the greatest Batman movie ever made...that doesn't have Batman in it.
@@flatebo1 I 1000% disagree. Batman isn't about getting vengeance on criminals. Ever since the 70s when we introduced the concept of the GCPD and the level of corruption in Gotham its been about fighting against the conditions that bred the man that killed his parents. That's why giving Joe Chill his name is significant because it makes Batman's motivation bigger than just revenge. Its about preventing other children from enduring the agony and trauma that he did and its about fighting against the disease of corruption in Gotham. Canonically, Batman may not have a fear of Bats but come on man. Its a wonderful addition to the mythos that adds to Bruce's decision to become Batman. It's not a cardinal sin. Also, Bruce 100% has always blamed himself on some level for his parents deaths. In every version of the death of the waynes it is always Bruce's idea to go see the Mark of Zorro. In some comics, they deal with that guilt and in some they don't. Just because its something that gets added later in the mythos doesn't make it invalid or untrue to the character. Its just deepening it.
@@justarandomveryintelligent8934 Keeping the identity of the Waynes' murderer anonymous also makes Batman's goal more general as his war on crime is not a personal war of retribution but a general war on all criminals.
And yes, later additions to the mythos are not necessarily invalid. But they aren't necessarily improvements, either.
Batman's entire life revolves around his war on crime. War on Crime. His goal is to save the innocent form the evil and corrupt. It isn't to inspire the wicked to become better. That's Superman's thing. Batman exists to terrify the guilty. Everybody wants Superman to look upon their deeds and smile. Because that means Superman approves of their actions. No one wants Batman to look upon their deeds and smile. Because that means Batman is about to have some fun.
"The camera's so jerky and fast, I can't even follow this"
Welcome to mid 2000s action, courtesy of the Bourne Identity
Idk about everyone else, but I have no problem with that, I have fast eyes
I thought it was okay in Bourne Identity. It was bad in the 3rd movie though.
@@hkmrsrg1367 Bourne Identity was definitely the worse out of the 3. Had the worst fight scene ever and camera movement ever.
@CEO of Secularism Bourne Identy has the worst fight scene of all time. It is known. Most of their fight was CGI with horrible cuts. It’s literally known to be the worst of all time. The movie is great, that fight scene is horrible so stop it.
Natalie: "I just remember Bane, and his voice from TDKR"
Me: sounds about right
Oh my god, she literally knows nothing about Batman. Her reaction is fresh fresh
Creepy
@@alishabany8757 Creepy?
Right? Lol I heard “I think I heard that Batman was an orphan?” and 😧
Calm down
@@micchecers Just excited for a fresh reaction
“I think Batman is an orphan”
Oh dang she really does know nothing about Batman
Nothing Wrong with that. She just hasn’t seen much of Batman in the past in film history. But she will know a lot more by the time she has finished this Trilogy. I still like Natalie’s reactions.
@@cameronturk4388 didn’t say there was. It was more just surprise.
@@rhyskenshin7325 hey well she knew the old theme song too nanananannanana BATMAN!
@@cameronturk4388 It's just that the character of Batman was created some 80 years ago (May 1939), so it is pretty rare and interesting to see (an American) not knowing even the most basic things about it. I don't think I've ever met anyone who doesn't know anything about Batman.We're just surprised, we don't say there's anything wrong with that.
Possibly the most 'famous' orphan, ever. Likely a toss up between him and Mr. Clark Kent. Although with that kind of solid adoptee parents I do not think Clark really counts (adoptee here).
I might sound completely weird but my favorite character was actually Dr Crane. Cillian did an absolutely fantastic job of portraying the madness behind the cold eyes. The way he spoke and the way he behaved was so spooky to me. I wish we got more about him.
He's my favourite character too! Cillian Murphy is an AWESOME actor!
@@havenlights9436 Facts!
You NEED to see Oldman in "The Professional." Another great reaction Natalie!
Gary Oldman & Tim Roth in "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead" (1990) a MUST see.
Oldman is terrifying in that one Nat should definitely watch it.
Leon: The Professional is the international title.
And first debut of Natalie Portman!
Leon is a fantastic film. Oldman on top of his game in it .
If you really want ‘unrecognisable’ Oldman, give Hannibal a try... if you dare!!
and True Romance, damn he has a scene stealing character.
Natalie: "Oh god, he's going to blame himself forever!"
Yeah...that's pretty much Batman summed up!
Well, no, that's "transplanting" from Spider-Man. (I know, a few comics, Batman Forever and Gotham also does it.)
Batman's deal is usually "I wannamakesure that thisneverhappens to anyoneelse... so I went away for yearsoftraining and now I'm back to run around this one city on the planet."
@@Mansplainer2099-jy8ps Not really.
The real deal: Bruce Wayne died in that alley, with his parents. Psychologically speaking, of course.
Whatever was left behind, though, wanted vengeance... *forever...* and ended up calling itself the Batman.
@@madderthanever Sometimes that is the case, yes, but that's up to the current writer really.
@@Mansplainer2099-jy8ps The story is always better when Bruce is the mask.
@@Akeche Then how come so many say Batman The Animated Series has the best version of him?
Personally I've come to feel he and Superman have the same "split"; there's the hero facade and the civilian facade while the real guy, who they are when alone, is both but less exaggerated. Like Bruce does like parts of the playboy lifestyle but he exaggerates it to seem a drinker pursuing models and he does like detectivework but he intentionally (except to friends) makes Batman seem like he _lives_ in a secret lab somewhere and only comes out to hunt.
That's just my take on it, of course.
Spider-Man is a bit different in that he was a tongue-tied nerd who created this cocky wisecracking facade and as he grew older became Peter Parker the wisecracking nerd disguised as Spider-Man the cocky wisecracking nerd.
Natalie: "Yeah he died. There's no way anyone could survive that."
DC Comics: "Let me introduce you to the Lazarus Pit."
i mean dont you need the body for that. that explosion probably blew him to smithereens
@@adityabiswas7684 don’t forget how jason todd died. There was a BOMB, and his body was intact when Batman found him
Batman the animated series is extremely well written and deals with series topics, the music is also at another level because they used a live orchestra for every episode.
The animation design is also amazing.
Yeah... the Swing Scene with Ace... Damn...
Natalie: "How?"
Answer: He's Batman
best conversation in the world I saw on HISHE between Batman and baby Groot...
"Why is he called Batman? Does he only come out at night? Is he nocturnal?"
I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that it's because he dresses like a bat.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
And the bat cave is called like that because that's where he f*cks bats
-Harley Queen
You're confusing bats with vampires.
Wait is that how bats dress?
@@screenzombie1393 I thought bats were always in the nude. Wait, should Batman be nude? I'm confused.
"This looks really expensive!"
Yeah, Nolan doesn't like using CGI, so, he'll go out of his way to engineer a practical shot if there's any way for him to do so.
He uses a lot of miniatures.
The building on the side of the mountain, the train crash and most of the tumbler driving through rooftops were miniatures.
Yeah, for that scene with the subway crashing, he used a miniature. Looks amazing!
He uses CGI when it's necessary
@@DroogyParade yeah, Peter Jackson LOTR style
Plane in tenet
To me there are two truly iconic Jokers: Heath Ledger and Mark Hamill.
Yes, but, Jack Nicholson, form '89!
"He's really got a flare for the theatrics" queue Gordon saying basically the same thing about the joker card at the end lol
“I don’t want the day to go to waste, sitting around doing nothing.”
Me *watching TH-cam all day long*:
👁👄👁
I'm in this quote and I don't like it.
The underside of this bus is great, thanks natalie
I'm literary in the same situation right now
"I never said thank you."
"And you'll never have to."
Such a beautiful line
I mean, a thank you every now and then wouldn't hurt.
Gary Oldman's brief happiness at believing in someone makes me smile.
@@exquisitelemonade3039 especially since he was so disillusioned earlier in the movie
This simple line is what makes Batman who he is, he’s not doing it for you. He’s doing it for himself, he wants to atone for the death of his parents. He never wants anyone else to go through what he had to as a kid.
"I wonder his voice would get lower as the trilogy go on "
In the words from Michael Cain in the Dark knight "oh you have no idea."
The Professional (or Leon) is a must watch with Gary Oldman, Jean Reno and Natalie Portman.
My favourite film, and many people's favourite film of all time too
Natalie Portman was amazing in Leon
You must watch Leon.. great movie
Agreed, Oldman is amazing as always, Reno on excellent form and child actresses Portman is actually really good as well.
I’ve been trying for this movie for a year.
I saw the title and instantly said “Oh shit, she gets to see Heath Ledger’s Joker next. That’s gonna be good” 😄
Ditto. And in her intro she mentions maybe winning awards... lol
The line about picking oneself up from a fall was used by a character in the Korean series "Run On" as the reason why she became a translator -- she loved the line, but never would have known of it without someone to translate it for her, and now chose to "pay it forward" by doing the same work.
I thought it was interesting that the writers put it that way.
Natalie: ”I feel like Lucius is going to die “.
Me: You really don’t remember watching the last one first because he was in it 😂
I love this trilogy, so much that there is no "bad one from Nolan's trilogy" there is only "the less good one"
@Lycan don't most people consider the 3rd one the weakest?
@@Goomyx1492 Yes, but most people also consider TDK the best, but to me Batman Begins is the better movie. So, everyone is different I suppose.
@@Goomyx1492 i certainly do, i also like this a bit better than the dark knight. The less one sees of batman the better it feels. The fight at the docks is just perfect.
This isn't the superhero trilogy the world deserves, but the one it needs
yeah, the ending of the 2nd movie was so insulting. typical socialist slaver propaganda. ::sigh::
So glad you are watching these! This trilogy is one my favorites, every time I watch them I'm blown away all over again.
I wish Cillian Murphy as Dr. Crane had gotten more screen time, he's probably my favourite actor! Imagine we would have gotten a Scarecrow origin movie starring Cillian and directed by Nolan. That would have been awesome!
CinemaWins Voice: Cillian Murphy is always a win.
Can’t wait for Oppenheimer, Cillian finally gets to shine!
Despite all his rage, he’s still just a bat in a cave.
ah, lyrics from smashing thumbkins
Nice
Natalie: I'm not feeling so great so don't expect any yells from me on this one.
Also Natalie: BATMAAAAN!!!
YES! Singing the theme music at the beginning of the vid is starting to become a thing! Keep it going!
Edna coming up at the cape scene caught me way off guard, well played. 🤣😂
I love the comment alfred makes when helping Bruce out with the log. "What was the point of all those bloody push ups if you can't even lift a log."
Nat: "Oh no, don't kill the kid."
Me: "That's Joffrey. Kill the f***ing kid."
This made me LOL!
People worry about Batman not killing The Joker. But they forget he let Joffrey live too.
😂 omg 😱 I just realized
😂Aha. He should have taken out King Joffrey. That's the batman we need but don't deserve.
I think Joffery had too much of that drug, turned him psychopathic!
Batman has long been one of my favorite superheros. I loved Tim Burton's Batman and Batman Returns. Batman Forever was ok, but after that it just went down hill. When I saw this, I had tears because I was so happy they resurrected Batman. I love this film, but The Dark Knight, is quite possibly one of my favorite films of all time. I can't wait to see you react to it.
“Rachel, you better be fine. If he can’t save you I’m gonna be depressed for the next couple of movies”
😬😬😬😬
“It’s a bat throwing star” you mean... the batarang 😆
Yeah, but it's not really a Batarang (boomerang) anymore. It's actually closer to a throwing star now.
@@jkhoover It’s traditionally called a Batarang
@@ALJ9000 but it doesn’t come back to him the way a boomerang would…
@@ALJ9000 Yeah, I understand that. I'm just saying it doesn't really fit that name anymore. In the 60s Batman it was literally boomerang style.
I recommend Nolan’s first major film, “Memento”. Excellent murder-mystery head trip.
It's his 3rd film actually
I wish I could see it for the first time again. At the same time, it has a high re-watch value.
@@twdclementine11 What’s his 2nd?
@@Amiinfocusyt Insomnia
@@twdclementine11 aCtUaLlY...... it’s “Following” (1998), “Memento” (2000), and “Insomnia” (2002).
What I loved most about The Dark Knight trilogy is that Nolan showed what it would realistically(well as realisitic as one can get with a comic book movie)take for Bruce Wayne to be Batman. Gary Oldman as Lt. Gordon(Comissioner later on) gave a great perfomance and one of the best versions of the character to date. And Batman got his name not only from his childhood fear of bats, but in the comics he was in his study one night trying to decide what symbol he would use. A bat crashed through the window, and inspiration struck. Also fun fact, Johnathan Crane(aka The Scarecrow) is deathly afraid of bats in the comics(ironic huh?)
I forgot how many memorable & quotable lines were in this movie. And how awesome is it too.
This doesn’t look like a 16 year old movie.
"I do feel like Lucious is going to die because i like him."
Nat you've been watching too much Game of Thrones.
most writers are not as Sadistic as George RR Martin.
@@mmmtsp lol right?
“I think Batman is an orphan?”
“......Natalie.....Natalie......”
She also says, "I think he has a butler..."
Then she sees the house, "Oh, they're rich rich."
Well yes, if they have a butler.
lol
Now you understand why they keep repeating the Batman origin story every movie.
"i'm not necessarily super familiar with batman"
she's not wrong ;)
LOL Me, out loud: "Natalie, it's BRUCE WAYNE! It's BATMAN!"
So happy you’re starting this trilogy. The Dark Knight is my favourite movie of all time. Can’t wait for you to get to that.
You know what's interesting is that I never made the connection between the fear gas and that scene from Bruce's training - what a good catch.
Let's go. This is probably one of the greatest trilogies ever made. Then again Chris Nolan is my favorite director so I could be biased
@KAI PHAN No LotR?
You are right. I'm not really a fan of chris nolan but still this is my fav trilogy
@KAI PHAN I wouldn’t call Snyder’s movies “a trilogy”. SS and Wonder Woman make it a five movie saga...
“But with room for more, God willing.”
First 3 star wars?? Lord of the rings?? But this is definitely top 3 trilogy
Yeah, I'm personally putting Star Wars, Back to the Future, Indiana Jones waaaaaaay above this trilogy.
Themes:
First movie: Fear
Second movie: Chaos
Third movie: Pain
Also Christopher Nolan mentioned that another major theme for The Dark Knight is Escalation.
@@jordanhurd1988
its also pure terror
My wife & I bumped into Christian Bale & his family in India whilst on vacation a few years ago! We were queuing to enter the great castle of Agra Fort. Unreal.
An excellent reaction, Natalie. I'm sure that you'll enjoy the next one even more.
Yes, now I am greatly looking forward to Natalie seeing Heath's Joker.
So, how many times will Natalie say "Holy S#!t!" in response to the Joker's actions?
Batman begins is one of my favorites all time! Glad to see more people getting to see this amazing trilogy. Also super hyped for The Batman coming in 2022 with Rob Pattinson
Absolutely love your reactions and commentary! Please keep up the wonderful work!
Mrs Gold. Love your comments. Compared to all the other people who react you are so knowledgeable of movies and cinematic in your reactions. Its real fun to watch you.
Natalie "I do apologize for my low energy"
Proceeds to have a more energetic response to a movie than I've ever had :D
This amazing film restored my faith in comic book movies, just in time for the MCU to begin. I've noticed Nolan is like Tarantino in that he develops a set of excellent go-to actors that he likes to use in everything. Jack Gleeson wasn't a household name back in 2005, but in retrospect it's easy to make jokes about how the fear toxin warped his mind into evil, or how his offscreen fighting parents were Robert and Cersei. Hope you enjoy The Dark Knight!
Great review Natalie - Jack Gleeson got the role on the personal recommendation of Christian Bale as they had also been in Reign of Fire. Always get goosebumps when Gordon reveals the Joker card...Heath Ledger!
You are going to LOVE Dark Knight. Great action sets, great quotes, great cinematics, good amount of comedy peppered through and obviously, Heath Ledger (what a performance).
Batman.....Let her go.
Joker.........Very poor choice of words.
Victim........Aaaaahhhh!!!!!
Batman Begins is one of my favorite movies of all time. I left theater hyped as hell after seeing this. It also solidified my lifelong fandom for the character & came at a time when I was really delving into the comics. Great movie.
"Why would he go into a cave in his peacoat"
People gotta understand Bruce never gave a damn about his material possessions, its all an act
Plus, you know, billionaire. He ruins one coat he can buy 20 tomorrow easy.
Which will bite him in the butt come the third film.
Long time coming. One of my favorite movies and movie series. 😍
Gary Oldman - you need to watch “Immortal Beloved”. His acting is amazing!
Oh yeeeeeees!
"I hope Liam Neeson survives because I like him"
LOL
That actor you recognize is Gary Oldman, he's in a lot of movies, and he always does his roles exceptionally well just like in the Batman series
Just like in the movie Tiptoes where he plays a little person
Gary old man was a great pick for Gordon, he looked lot like comic book Gordon.
Hey Nat, I do like the dialogue and the use of defining lines repeated by different characters; especially the one Batman uses to Rachel "it's what I do that defines me." Glad that you liked it.
I cry almost as much as you did during this movie. I must have seen it thirty times by now, an it never fails to move me. I was a fan of Batman as a kid, and I saw each of the theatrical films when they opened since 1989. But this was the Batman movie I had been waiting for, without really knowing it. The focus is on Bruce instead of being stolen away by the flashy villains. One of my all time favorites...very glad you liked it as well.
This movie is iconic. Just like your reactions. And your lovely hair.
Not as iconic as TDK
Pulls off the hat
26:38 made me LOL!
It scared the crap out of me lol I turned around and was like WTF?!
i was sooo freaked out when i heard it
Super hilarious
We're u guys wearing headphones too 😆
@@Myro-vb8hc I was, sounded legit!
I cannot wait until you see Heaths performance! Incredible and is gonna blow you away, I loved everything he did and seeing him as the Joker was on another level!! Will be DEF watching your full video on it!
"Why do we fall?"
Natalie: "So we can get back up again"
You fail the lesson...
"So we can learn to pick _ourselves_ up again."
Same thing, you’re not deep
"I've seen the third movie"
also: "I'm gonna assume Robin isn't a part of this trilogy"
Well, he’s not here in the traditional way. He’s not Robin The Boy Wonder. He’s just a cop.
Also says "I'm sure Lucius is gonna die". And then "I feel Alfred is gonna die". Are you sure you actually watched the 3rd movie?
@@KieranGecko
well its the only movie that actually had him as a character during its full duration...as well as even mention his name directly.
the most robin movie of the trilogy LOL
@@Blitz-dm3kv very true! Was more just a funny jab because I found it so ironic
I feel that the last minute character cameo would have been more accepted if they either used an established Robin or else had it be Matthew McGinnis taking on the cowl.
"How did they film this, this looks expensive" It is a Nolan film so he probably Built the city in full scale and then blew it up.
Actually, If I remember correctly, he built it inside of an aircraft hangar 😂
Actually much of the locations for this (and the next) movie were in Chicago. It was used especially well in the Dark Knight, so much so that I felt the city of Chicago should have been eligible for supporting actor awards for playing the role of Gotham.
@@ShawnLevasseur And then the 3rd one was mostly shot in Pittsburgh, and the movie wasn't as good. Coincidence?
@@kevinkuenn5733 A worse casting change than replacing Katie.
I always enjoy your sincere reactions
Such an epic series. So keen for this
"How did they film this?", Natalie may I talk to you about the ancient art of film miniatures?
"WAKEY WAKEY CHICKEN BAKEY"
nat has a good point why are we not baking the chicken for breakfast?
Wakey Wakey Eggs & Bakey...
chicken with waffles tho. Scary good
"What is the point of all those pushups if you can't even lift a bloody log"
BEAUTIFUL REVIEW. You must do the other 2 It's a must.
Natalie, you have no idea how good it is to see someone who doesn't know about Batman! It feels refreshing and reminds me how my father gifted me Batman comics and I was introduced to the character.
That's amazing. I don't remember when I first introduced to things like Batman, Superman, and even Star Wars. I've just always known about them.
