I know this is kind of random but I feel like Christian bales Batman would be a great character in the movie saving Private Ryan. The mentality that his Batman has when getting into such dangerous situations. I feel he would do great in that film. He reminds me of Jackson. I know Batman doesn’t say quotes from the bible when fighting and killing his enemies or he doesn’t a kiss a Christian cross necklace right before he fights but the strong bravery his Batman has and private Jackson has I think is very similar.
I love how from beginning to end, in all three movies, Lucius never once refers to Bruce as Batman when they speak to one another. Compartmentalization with well-defined boundaries was how he balanced his dedication and commitment within Bruce's two worlds.
In the Nolan trilogy they make it clear that Batman is just a symbol, Bruce doesn't identify himself as Batman but rather he uses that persona to be incorruptible and invincible at the eyes of his enemies. He says that many times and also that he didn't want to be Batman forever since he wanted to have a life outside the cave with Rachel first and then is able to do that with Selina. Also if you notice unlike in many other superhero movies in the end credits there's no "Bruce Wayne/Batman" (no real identity slash secret identity) just "Bruce Wayne" when he's credited.
I love the way the Joker totally called this. "And as for the television's so called plan? Batman has no jurisdiction. He'll find him, and make him squeal!"
Yeah, it's almost like it was written by a script writer, who knew what was going to happen, so he could make sure the right characters knew it too. Edit: Get rekt midwits, lmao. This movie is still capesh*t garbage 😂😂
This scene represents Batman at his best. He pulls off an impossible task perfectly with everything at his disposal - technology, hand to hand training, and sheer will/discipline.
@@ArjunLoveableChannel yea I agree but it mostly had to do with the camera work also imo.

The “Skyhook” technique used in this scene was actually a real thing. Officially called the Fulton air retrieval system, it was developed and used by the CIA for over 30 years as an extraction technique for operatives. It was surprisingly successful, with only one recorded fatal accident ever occurring with the technique. Really cool how they used it here, since it’s definitely something that Batman would do.
If I remember correctly, for the gliding they really did have a guy being swung around on a helicopter or something. I dunno how they did the dive into the window and all, but they really did go GoldenEye Dam-style balls out filming crazy shit like this. The Dark Knight was on another level of filmmaking. Between that and the Gotham General explosion being a 100% real set in Chicago that onlookers watched in awe, you can't really pick a single best scene.
@@UltimaKeyMaster No they didn't. They tried to do that and made some attempts but at the end result was pretty bad. So they used arial shot for the path tracing but batman if 100% cgi in this scene
Yeah I thought Batman may actually get some sort of challenge from those guys with some kung fu or something. Not even Bane's guys laid a hand on him when he was almost washed up in Rises. Only Bane. Well I guess the Joker did too but that was after dogs attacked him and his vision was messed up
The one thing I absolutely love about this scene is that Batman was all business once he is inside Lau's building and didn't talk at all - no cheesy lines, one liners or even threatening Lau or his henchmen or the cops. It shows how many times Batman would have rehearsed this plan in his head and how he stayed pretty much in total control. Nolan is really a genius.

This movie was released 14 years ago. It has aged incredibly well. Some would say it was ahead of its time. The cinematography and music and the acting. Incredible. 🤩
Pure elegance. On of the most jaw dropping scenes I've ever seen. Remember watching it in the theatres as a kid and The Dark Knight remains my no 1 film of all time.
This has to be utterly horrifying not just for Lau, but everyone involved. To think Batman, a local hero, would show up in your building in the dead of night, and just beat the shit out of everyone and kidnap the CEO.
Also: No one in Hong Kong EXCEPT Lau knew that Batman even existed. Imagine how scared they were when this is the ONLY encounter with the Bat they’ll ever have.
The wire grapple system batman uses and the electrostatic glide cape are still sadly science fiction but feasible in the future, and the trilogy certainly had more real gadgets in it than any other to date and I too love them for this reason. The fighting is also far more real, people get tired and don't move around like a hamster on drugs but like proper cage fight / brawl style, i.e. as humans do. The trilogy is a masterpiece and I doubt I will see as good a batman film again in my lifetime.
Lucius actually did correct him. A bat uses its ears, and can discern obstacles. Active sonar on a submarine goes through a computer and can give a 3D representation on a screen, turning the audio into a visual picture.
Maybe Bruce is actually trying to get Lucius Fox to say "bat" as a confirmation that he is so onboard the whole Batman thing But Lucius always maintains a professional/technical attitude as well as a careful plausible deniability Both characters are portrayed very well by Nolan
Amazing movie but I never figured out why Batman couldn’t blame everything on the joker at the end. The whole take all the blame die for everyone’s sins ending seemed a bit contrived.
@@jasonlam321 Nah, they pull the passengers in after they clear away from any obstructions. Wouldn't make sense to land as someone is dangling from the back of the plane.
I’m just impressed that plane was so pinpoint accurate. Imagine if it had been a couple minutes late. The police would just be staring at Batman all confused.
That would be the moment Batman throws up his arms in exasperation, repeatedly clicks the button and gets yanked away when he’s least ready, like Joker with the hospital.
@@EvilPumpkin That was a very different plane, so it's safe to assume it has a different pilot. The first was a twin engine amphibious plane, the plane in this scene is the famous C-130.
There's something so satisfying about watching Batman in his preparation phase. From putting on the cowl to using his equipment on top of a huge building, everything here is awesome. When he takes a leap of faith from assassin's creed, it's the cherry on top.
Lau standing up, pretending to crack his neck, and cocking his gun at 1:53 is so unintentionally funny. Batman about to bust through a window in this guy’s high rise and Lau acting like he will have to get his hands dirty 😂
It's hilarious how he acts like he's about to be so hard but then he starts screaming for his life when he and his whole security team get bodied by Batman.
@@psicogames5509 Earlier in the trilogy he tells Bruce not to take him for a fool with excuses of 'mountain climbing' and either tell him or just leave the excuses. Besides that, he has been designing bat style devices including a bat-mobile, that flying bat thing and the batman suits...
@@xMACHOxMANx Yea, but this is way worse. In real life this would cause enormous tension between USA and China. Especially since Batman unofficially works with local USA law enforcement.
@@DeansLists Eh, I don't think so. The US had no official involvement with Batman's kidnapping of Lau, so there wouldn't be any evidence to prove the US government sanctioned Batman's activities there. What's more, China likely knew Lau was committing crimes overseas and they were protecting him anyway, so if they complained about Batman, the US could easily turn that right back around on them.
@@Tantalus010 Valid points from both sides, but knowing Winnie the Pooh, he would still get very angry at an American kidnapping a public figure in the country without his permission
I smell a crossover. The man with a plan for everything forced to team up with the man who may not actually have a plan for anything. Or he may. Who knows?
Rubber Ducky are you perhaps confusing it with Transformers Age of Extinction? I remember watching this on the news as well and I don’t recall any unpleasantness
One thing I absolutely love about Nolan is his real time events. Most movies show a timer of any sort and never follow them in real time. Batman times them for 2 mins 30 secs and this whole scene ends with explosions at the same time 2 mins 30 seconds.
"Sonar, just like a, uh..." "Submarine, mr. Wayne. Submarine." I never realized that line was Freeman's character subtly implying he still didn't want to have anything to do with Batman officially.
Yeah plausible deniability. Plus anyone who suspected Bruce as Batman might bug areas Lucius frequents either to justify an arrest warrant or blackmail him. Hell, in this movie someone in Wayne enterprises figures out Bruce is Batman just by examining Wayne Enterprises' accounting records and old stock inventory. Imagine if he'd taken more time to prep his blackmail, like gaining a recording Lucius and Bruce couldn't alter later (like they'd be able to at least attempt with the company's finances and they could try to relocate the gadgets/prototype bat-mobiles. Lucius was careful enough to make sure such a recording could never exist.
Well the fluttering of his Cape makes those sounds and it's such an important detail instead of just using music background when in the air like some movies do. It was impressive.

Nolan + Zimmer + Bale = Best Batman Movie Ever! Of all the superhero movies that ever existed, this movie with such scenes is second to none! Goosebumps everytime 🤩
So true bro ..i know exactly what you mean ...even thoe is not a end days prophetic apocalyps style ..you can still sense vibe ..check out Kent Hovind end days
Joker: "And as for the television's so called plan? Batman has no jurisdiction. He'll find him and make him squeal. I know the squealer when i see them and... (points at TV)"
I love how Lau tries to crack his neck at 1:52 It shows how he views himself: A criminal above the rest, a badass But there's no crack. Guess who does it properly? The Joker Right before fighting his guard while in prison to get his phone call Subtle from Nolan showing how Joker is far more competent then Lau as well as being the Villain Lau wanted to be The childish note on his chest for Gordon is who he really is: a joke compared to Batman or Joker
I want to say that guard wasn't supposed to fall prematurely without being hit that last time with the gun that scene alone blows my mind like who fucked up here 🤔
My god, it just hit me that there was a double meaning when Fox told Bruce "like a submarine". It wasn't just explaining the tech but more so a cover story to hide Batman's identity from the R&D. You could tell at 0:10 that Bruce's mouth almost wanted to utter the word "BAT" as in "echolocation" but Fox reassured him that they had a legit tech relation to subs just so to throw off any suspicions linking him to Batman. Seriously the little details man...
This is one of the Rare moment where Batman act like Mercenaries, no talk, no wages & no postponement, but That's what actually makes him scary, just doing his task & leave the crime scene like it's nothing, a Pure Perfection of 'Take what you can and Give Nothing Back' in any Action movies.
Bruce: "Sonar. Just like a…" Fox: "Submarine, Mr. Wayne, like a submarine." Bruce: "I was gonna say 'bat'." Fox: "I know you were. That's why I said 'submarine'."
Everyone's talking about how Batman got in and out of a building, no one's talking about how that crack pilot sneaked a slow moving C-130 into Chinese airspace, made a low pass right over downtown Hong Kong at precisely the right moment from the correct direction, nailed the pickup on the first pass, and then flew home with their lights on all without getting intercepted.
He didn't sneak it in. You can bet that plane was officially scheduled to fly there for totally innocuous reasons, and was equally officially above suspicion as it flew away, the second part being thanks to some very fancy bribery. Let's not forget, Batman has the most powerful superpower there is--cold hard cash.
No one is asking the other question here and it’s bothering me- who flies batman’s personal military cargo plane? Somewhere, possibly within applied science, Batman has a whole staff of people with specific skills that I guess must know about Bruce along with lucious and it feels like a plot hole (even though it doesn’t technically break anything).
@@Conservative4 I’m pretty sure Alfred (maybe Fox) says something about just a random bloke owning one of these planes and I think he said that he would fly it for him
@@Conservative4 I always assumed Lucius was flying it because he was already helping him as is, plus he's the gadget genius so he could probably also fly a plane
@@astronaut8917 those are two VERY different fields, both requiring years of training. I could swear there was a line in the movie about getting in contact with some smugglers for the job.
I love how Batman and Bane used the same method to kidnap Lau and Pavlov.. a symmetrical note to show how leage of shadow’s mentality is vivid in both of them
I remember watching this in the theater with my Dad back when it came out, and to this day whenever we rewatch it together with both laugh our asses off when the plane picks them up. I remember the day in the theater literally everyone was balling laughing... just such a great moment. The police/guards think they have him cornered, he blows the windows and then not only leaves them holding the bag and the L but doing it in the best most badass way.
Yeah, Bale's Batman is still the best. No other Batman ever reached this level of badass. The man took on the entire Hong Kong police force, disappeared into thin air when thugs were shooting at him, blew out the side of a skyscraper and Fulton extracted himself, all to get one man.
This is still imo the greatest super hero movie of all time by a country mile. So good that it transcends its own genre. As in, The Dark Knight itself if Batman didn’t exist prior and this was a film and isolation is still one of the best action-drama films I’ve ever seen. History does and will continue to view this film (in all honesty led by Heath Ledger’s once in a lifetime performance as The Joker) as an absolute home run.
Well I think to be fair he gave himself some extra time. By the time Batman beat up Lau’s goons and was holding him hostage the bombs hadn’t gone off yet. So he had some time to spare.
Dr. Ian Malcolm, "God creates dinosaurs, God destroys dinosaurs. God creates Man, man destroys God. Man creates dinosaurs" Dr. Ellie Sattler, "Dinosaurs eat man..... Woman inherits the earth lol
I remember going to see this at the IMAX at 3am in the morning when it was first released. Amazing film and an amazing. The whole film gave me goose bumps.
That's how you know when the story is good when the story comes first and then superhero second. For example: Daredevil and Jessica Jones. Especially with Jessica Jones, you sometimes forget that she has powers.
I dunno, Mexico is getting pretty close to that point. Just last month the Mexican police were outgunned by cartel militia when they captured El Chapo's son. Police had him in custody, but were under heavy fire, some captured, and couldn't leave the city. Fearing a massacre like what killed 14 police that same week, officials agreed to hand him back over. The Mexican government is practically on the verge of being a failed state at this point. They control only what the cartels don't care to contest them for.
Watching this scene on a 12 story tall imax screen was one of the most memorable movie watching experiences I've ever had. No other movie has ever triggered a physical sense of being there like this scene
If we were to say "godfather" then it would be safe to assume that it's not exactly the best, but rather the one that pioneered the genre so... I say Christopher Reeves Superman
Batman probably locked him in a cage on the plane and smuggled him through in gotham in an unmarked box or something and hence his exhaustion when Gordon finds him.
@@jibrankhantareen7300 Yeah fair enough but what about the smugglers hired to fly the plane I'm assuming there would be some in the cargo hold as well to pull them in . After he's on the plane sitting with these random smugglers would be akward lol
"Hey, buddy, this your first time on a plane? You're wearing a lot of gear." "I like to be prepared." "Prepared for what? A meteor shower?" "No... JUSTICE." "Um... Okay."
Love the small smirk on Gordon's face when he finds Lau outside his building with a simple funny note. Gary is a great actor and Nolan is awesome paying attention to small details.
The fight scenes of the Nolan films might’ve not been flashy. The action scenes itself though like this and when Batman saves the swat members and hostages is just genius.
@@B3000-i4d Yeah it just flows really well with the camera work. It may objectively not have the greatest fights ever, but they sure do look appealing to the eye with the crazy cameras Nolan uses. What a fucking great movie, my favorite one ever. Every character is done justice in the Dark Knight, it's well done.
I think the dark knight had perfect action. Begins didn’t have enough steady camera yet the choreography was fantastic but rises had way too much to the point where the choreography not being perfect really pulled the quality down. Dark knight is a good balance. Really one of the best movies ever made in every regard
I feel like every criminal who faces off against Batman has a moment where they genuinely start wondering if he really is more than human. This was Lau's moment.
Comments like this make me appreciate the video game Batman Arkham Origins, where cops and criminals didn't think of Batman as a man in a costume, but rather, a urban myth/boogeyman for criminals.

I love how Christopher Nolan uses real life gadgets and equipments in Batman Trilogy.
The wire grapple system batman uses and the electrostatic glide cape are still sadly science fiction but feasible in the future, and the trilogy certainly had more real gadgets in it than any other to date and I too love them for this reason. The fighting is also far more real, people get tired and don't move around like a hamster on drugs but like proper cage fight / brawl style, i.e. as humans do. The trilogy is a masterpiece and I doubt I will see as good a batman film again in my lifetime.
In the arkham games he had much more gadgets
Payel Ghosh
Damn right!
And he is a little obsessed with shots in airplanes you can see it here and in dark night rises, Dunkirk.
ArmyOfAll the cape and grapple system were prototyped in Russia in the 80s but sadly never made it into production
I always love how bruce is about to say "like a bat" but gets cut off by Lucius saying "submarine".
*Battinson enters the chat*
OMG it always went over my head 😳
Lucius actually did correct him.
A bat uses its ears, and can discern obstacles.
Active sonar on a submarine goes through a computer and can give a 3D representation on a screen, turning the audio into a visual picture.
Maybe Bruce is actually trying to get Lucius Fox to say "bat" as a confirmation that he is so onboard the whole Batman thing
But Lucius always maintains a professional/technical attitude as well as a careful plausible deniability
Both characters are portrayed very well by Nolan
If I ever got that, I completely forgot it 🤣
I can’t get over how perfect this movie is. It’s literally flawless.

This scene is so good at showing Batman’s prep time skills and abilities to plan and execute an action.
I’m just impressed that plane was so pinpoint accurate. Imagine if it had been a couple minutes late. The police would just be staring at Batman all confused.
I think BATMAN timed the pilot
I still don’t get who bruce hired without caring if it was BATMAN or not
@@Bat-talk Maybe he went to the pilot as batman himself.
@@humanbeing1429 No he didn't. The pilot came to pick him up as Bruce Wayne in that boat with the Russian ballet.
That would be the moment Batman throws up his arms in exasperation, repeatedly clicks the button and gets yanked away when he’s least ready, like Joker with the hospital.
@@EvilPumpkin That was a very different plane, so it's safe to assume it has a different pilot. The first was a twin engine amphibious plane, the plane in this scene is the famous C-130.
There's something so satisfying about watching Batman in his preparation phase. From putting on the cowl to using his equipment on top of a huge building, everything here is awesome. When he takes a leap of faith from assassin's creed, it's the cherry on top.
Lau standing up, pretending to crack his neck, and cocking his gun at 1:53 is so unintentionally funny. Batman about to bust through a window in this guy’s high rise and Lau acting like he will have to get his hands dirty 😂
It's hilarious how he acts like he's about to be so hard but then he starts screaming for his life when he and his whole security team get bodied by Batman.
To be fair, he did have to get his hands dirty. With all the glass he has to deal with. On his own body.

The US had no official involvement with Batman's kidnapping of Lau, so there wouldn't be any evidence to prove the US government sanctioned Batman's activities there.

Yeah plausible deniability. Plus anyone who suspected Bruce as Batman might bug areas Lucius frequents either to justify an arrest warrant or blackmail him. Hell, in this movie someone in Wayne enterprises figures out Bruce is Batman just by examining Wayne Enterprises' accounting records and old stock inventory. Imagine if he'd taken more time to prep his blackmail, like gaining a recording Lucius and Bruce couldn't alter later (like they'd be able to at least attempt with the company's finances and they could try to relocate the gadgets/prototype bat-mobiles. Lucius was careful enough to make sure such a recording could never exist.
Man, the punch sound effect at 2:58 is just the right amount of brutal
The sound when he glides is such a nice detail
True, but still too noisy - he needs to tighten up his trailing edges a bit.

You could tell at 0:10 that Bruce's mouth almost wanted to utter the word "BAT" as in "echolocation" but Fox reassured him that they had a legit tech relation to subs just so to throw off any suspicions linking him to Batman.

Everyone's talking about how Batman got in and out of a building, no one's talking about how that crack pilot sneaked a slow moving C-130 into Chinese airspace, made a low pass right over downtown Hong Kong at precisely the right moment from the correct direction, nailed the pickup on the first pass, and then flew home with their lights on all without getting intercepted.
He didn't sneak it in. You can bet that plane was officially scheduled to fly there for totally innocuous reasons, and was equally officially above suspicion as it flew away, the second part being thanks to some very fancy bribery. Let's not forget, Batman has the most powerful superpower there is--cold hard cash.
No one is asking the other question here and it’s bothering me- who flies batman’s personal military cargo plane?
Somewhere, possibly within applied science, Batman has a whole staff of people with specific skills that I guess must know about Bruce along with lucious and it feels like a plot hole (even though it doesn’t technically break anything).

@@B3000-i4d Yeah it just flows really well with the camera work. It may objectively not have the greatest fights ever, but they sure do look appealing to the eye with the crazy cameras Nolan uses. What a fucking great movie, my favorite one ever. Every character is done justice in the Dark Knight, it's well done.
I think the dark knight had perfect action. Begins didn’t have enough steady camera yet the choreography was fantastic but rises had way too much to the point where the choreography not being perfect really pulled the quality down. Dark knight is a good balance. Really one of the best movies ever made in every regard
I cannot wait to see a moment like this in the new Batman series. This is Batman the character at his peak of skill and experience.
I feel like every criminal who faces off against Batman has a moment where they genuinely start wondering if he really is more than human.
This was Lau's moment.
Comments like this make me appreciate the video game Batman Arkham Origins, where cops and criminals didn't think of Batman as a man in a costume, but rather, a urban myth/boogeyman for criminals.
The dark knight trilogy are for kids
The Batman and Moon knight is for adults

@@Samuel152 it’s a shame Arkham origins gets a lot of hate it’s my favorite out of all the Arkhams
