And I thought spitting in someone's face was disrespectful. Laying your hand on someone's shoulder is so much more intrusive. LMAO Damn, I should've done that to my previous supervisor. "Do you feel in charge?"
Izzy Gee but they clearly established in the prison that the mask kept him from feeling pain...they didn't say how or why they just said the mask does that. that's less realistic than any of the other attempts they just said suspend beliefs and common sense.
so use a jacked up luchador on drugs rather than an organized crime boss or a genius who builds traps to test his own intelligence against the hero's. Oh wait... the luchador isn't on the drugs that make him stupid strong and unbelievably durable and practically impervious to pain and instead give him a mask that makes his pain go away... yeah, realistic is the word I'd use. This movie should have been so much better with a different villain, the way the first 2 were.
BiggEJohnson23 the whole charm of bane in the comics is that without his venom he is as intelligent as batman, the venom he injects straight into his body doesn't make him stupid it just enrages him, much like real world roid rage, having him as some shitty terrorist completely goes against his character considering what happened to his home
True, but that still shouldn't take away from it. Ledger's Joker was one of the finest examples of method acting of all time. The fact that Hardy was able to put in a performance that was even comparable is impressive in itself.
And yet, Batman fanboys will still criticizes Dark Knight Rises as a horrible and weakest out of the three Nolan Batman Trilogy. I love it. Tom Hardy is a complete badass.
Mario world N.Y How was I generalizing if majority of of both Batman fanboys and perfectionist movie critics were panning "Rises" for the stupidest of reasons?
You don't even have to watch the whole movie to know why Hardy was cast as Bane. Watch the first scene and keep looking at his eyes during the airplane scene. That's all.
man Nolan really did set the bar very very high with his.Batman trilogy, I don't think we will ever get another comic movie even close to being as good as these were
There have already been several. In Superman II, for example: the swelling Superman score, "Looking for me, General?", and then the iconic *"Son of Jor-El! **_Kneel_** before Zod!"* just so perfectly captures the half-epic, half-cheesy awesomeness of the character in a way Nolan's Batman never could.
One thing I noticed and LOVED was during the scene where Bane reads Gordon's resignation letter on love TV, at one point his brow furrows and he stops reading for a moment as he very slightly shakes his head in disappointment. Those two tiny gestures define Bane so much. He truly believes that he MUST do what he is doing because everyone else has failed Gotham, including those who said they were there to defend it. He's truly disappointed and disgusted with Gordon's lie, believing it to be a greater sin than anything Bane himself could ever do.
the smell from his mouth... is unbearable...That's why Ra's al ghul said he's monster... and didn't want his daughter to have the same smell in her mouth...
I loved the fact in the scenes where he was in prison, his humanity outshone the whole pit. And the vulnerability he shows whilst Talia was telling Batman their connection. Awesome acting. As for his brutality, he knew when to use it and when to make the mere thought of it more fearful.
i don't think Bane was bad, if anything i reckon tom hardy and his character was the saving grace of the dark knight rises cause really what is the one thing you remember about the dark knight rises 1. Bane 2. Bane breaking batman's back 3. Bane's quotes 4. The movie's plot holes
Voracious T weirdly I remember Anne Hathaway's Catwoman more than anything else in that movie, probably because she was the only "light hearted" bit of the film so her lines landed and stayed with me.
well you could not do clayface realistically, the only way you could do it is by making him an expert in makeup design and give him enough time to create different prosthetic masks to make himself look like a different person but you could not have realistic way for a man to actually shape his body into different forms or have different facial features. However that kind of person would pose no physcial threat to Batman would be stopped easily and would not have time to put on different masks in time to get away. It would be a boring character.
Idk anything about Killer Croc really aside from what I've seen in Suicide Squad..but judging by what I did see in the movie, he didn't even seem like he'd be worthy of a movie with Batman..he seemed barely above an average criminal.
Tom is easily the most versatile actor of the 21st century. From Bane to Eames, Bronson to Eddie Brock, Max Rockatansky to Alfie Solomons, my guy has had SO many incredible roles, and not one of them was like any of the others. He's just awesome.
Tom Hardy was just as good as Heath Ledger. They are just as good as eachother for different reasons, because both portrayed very different characters.
Tony Tornado No. His OG origin and design are great and could easily be reworked into a plausible realistic design. I liked Hardy as Bane but he wasn't the character I know and love
General Vic Rattlehead agreed, Bane is my favourite Batman vilain, but I'm talking about the visual, this mercenarie look is much more menacing than the luchador look.
When bane is first revealed he claims that no one cared who he was before he out on the mask. The film is not clear on how long he has been a mercenary, but it is fair to assume that he was one for some time before donning the mask. During this time he failed to achieve any recongition, much like in his pre-mercenary life, and he came to realize he needed a symbol, or a brand if you will, if anyone was to take him seriously. This is a metaphor for how capitalism and our society as a whole focuses too much on brand recognition, to the point of forgoing actual function and form. After this realization CIA asks if he(Bane) would die if it(the mask) was pulled off. This is a multifaceted question, asking both if the character Bane has build up around his mask would die and if Bane himself is so connected to the idea of himself as a mercenary that he could no longer live life as a real human bean. This draws inspiration from psychological studies regarding the perception of the quality of items based on their supposed brand. Your brain will trick you that items that are in fact identical but with different brands or descriptions, or just items that are differently priced, are is some way different from each other. The value that society places on brands are so high that without them some products would simply cease to be. Bane responds to this that "it would be extremely painful". He affirms that his dependancy on the idea of himself is so great that dispelling the illusion would hurt him, but not kill him. CIA affirms that Bane is a Big Guy and while removing the mask might hurt Bane, he can live on without the charade. This is a message directed at the audience. We should not live our lives based on the perception of others, but on what makes each of us happy. Nolan wrote this scene as a metaphor for escaping the illusion that society forces upon us from birth. He wants us all to grow as human beings, grow beyond phony charades and small guys who base our value as humans on the "masks" we wear, rather who we really are on the inside. Bane's response confirms that the scene was made For you.
I walked into that movie thinking that bane and Catwoman would be the worst part of the movie they turned out to be the best part of the movie. I think Tom Hardy's rendition of bane was absolutely masterful.
Despite having an English father, Bane is always given Hispanic, Latin, Romani, Hellene and Slav accents ! He's British ! And this time they actually got it right
I really love Tom Hardy's Bane. His Bane is crazy intimidating, his very presence in a scene demands respect. There's so much to be said for his Bane, but for me it's literally just the voice. Like if anyone actually will, check out the voice of Bane in the video-game Injustice 2. Then, imagine THAT voice on Tom's Bane. I think it'd be a perfect fit.
Say what ya want about the movie, but Tom Hardy was a phenomenal Bane. He was easily the MVP of the movie despite the movie's direction to have him be an oversized pawn than the main threat. An interaction between Nolan's Joker and Bane would be described only as... Glorious!
as a matter of fact, had heath ledger not passed away, a scene was allegedly planned for right after bane gives his speech in front of the prison and frees the prisoners. he was supposed to meet joker, and have him be the only prisoner not set free. because the joker is the complete antithesis of bane, as far as villains go. bane, although a terrorist, had good intentions for the city of gotham. joker is the very opposite of that-- he stands for chaos, for the element that cannot be controlled. in the words of michael caine, he just wants to watch the world burn.
Top Down I think that scene could be topped only by Joker doesn’t want to leave. Imagine all the prisioners leaving prison, a whole caos, and Joker standing there, sitting in his prision cell with the orange jumpsuit
Top Down that would have bin amazing, imagine this bad ass mercenary who isnt afraid of anyone but wont let the joker out because hese too crazy...speaks volumes about the Joker and Batman.
+WhatCulture I think 2 moments on the plane- when he glares at the good doctor after saying "we had to find out what he told you" and the scathing contempt when he says "crashing this plane" he is able to render huge & subtle emotion with just his two little peepers: Fuck off good acting, that guy has the chops!
Personally I loved his performance in TDKR, despite what others may think of the movie it was fun to watch and was an exceptional finale to the trilogy.
It had some great individual elements, but the fact that he's turns out to a glorified henchman (as opposed to the cunning and extremely intelligent villain from the comics) really sucked! It doubly sucked that the whole movie made him seem like he was in charge of everything (no pun intended)!
Tom Hardy was also chosen for the movie Dunkirk because of his characteristic eyes. He was to act with his eyes while wearing the flight mask during his Spitfire flying sequences.
The best part about Tom Hardy's Bane is its accuracy of of the character. He NAILS the south-american accent, and really brings that culture into picture with brilliant complexity.
Aaron Alejos that would be absolutely sick! Especially if the X-Men series start to turn a little more like the Batman series and go quite dark. Then yes, Tom Hardy would be fucking perfect as Wolverine especially because we don't see that many grewsome killings more things like that x-Men was my absolute favourite cartoon growing up and my older age Tom Hardy has been my favourite actor ever since I first saw him in Bronson and soon after I saw an interview with him when I was in Amsterdam of all states and it was an interview with Tom and Jonathan Ross. Tom was hardly wasn't even known by that stage but I remember being very very stoned and mushroomed up and saying to my brother, this guy has the potential to be the best actor in the world! I swear, that wasn't on a statement. Yeah sure a lot of people will agree that he's not, but I will stick with my mushroom induced opinion on Mr Tom Hardy! So yes, I only hope Hardy would play the role of Wolverine if the movie franchise choose to take it to a deeper and darker realm.... I hope you agree and more importantly you know what I mean?
If you think Hardy is great as Bane, you should see him in Legend where he plays both leading roles as the Kray twins - you'd be convinced they're different people. He is that good.
I saw the movie "Bronson" and was in awe of Mr. Hardy's ability to become the character that he was portraying. Not just with his acting lines, but his whole body. There isn't a single movie with Mr. Hardy in it that I don't like. He is a very gifted actor.
You might note in the hand gestures of Bane, that his index finger is extended. Relaxed, but extended. This is a habit, I have noted, in many martial artists who study sword art. You tend to see it in shooters as well. Trigger discipline follows them everywhere.
Bane's one of the best supervillains on film to date. Much underappreciated I think, especially since the fact that he resembles tyrants and dictators existing in the world today. I don't think any other superhero film has raised the stakes to the point that TDKR did -- with the entire city being under siege by the bad-guy, and your hero broken beyond reason.
Tom Hardy is my choice to play me in an autobiography of a nobody’s journey through life. He’d crush it. This guy should have an Oscar statue by now for his portrayal of Branson, Bane, Legend and Locke. This guy is a real method acting cat.
tony bryant yeah I totally blanked that we were talking about bane being talias lackey when I actually thought we were talking about batman. Yeah I'm an idiot
TDK and Rises are amazing. Bane and Catwoman were perfection in Rises, which is one of the most underrated films ever. Great final chapter and the best ending to a film series that I can remember.
Tom Hardy nailed it when he played Bane in The Dark Knight Rises ! :) Christopher Nolan created an amazing superhero trilogy and The Dark Knight trilogy is simply amazing :)
Romani gypsies have nothing to do with Latin peoples! Romani gypsies originate in India, even though the name sounds similar to the Romans' (the Latins) and Romanians' (one of the peoples of latin origin).
“Ooo you think darkness is your ally? You merely adopted the dark. I was born in it, moulded by it and by the time I saw the light it was already BLINDING!!” I love this line even thoughts a lie because-as we find out he was not the child who escaped the dark.
It wasn't a lie. Bane was born in the pit. He simply never escaped, Talia brought Ras Al Ghul back to the pit and that's when he was brought out. You're forgetting the key piece of that line that tells us in that scene that he isn't the child who escaped. "I was born in it. Molded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but blinding."
1. he wears lifts 2. the line "That's a lovely voice" was improvised 3. the use of hand-on-shoulder 4. he took the role without reading the script 5. he loves batman, which pushed him to work harder 6. the voice is based on bare knuckle boxer barely gorman. 7. he trained to the max 8. he acts with more than his mouth. (since the mask covered it)
It's a new corner that acting has taken. I rate Tom Hardy as the best English actor. The subtle performance technique is the new form. This was pioneered by Anthony Hopkins, and I regard both of these actors, to be the best actors on the planet. 🌎
I'm pretty sure Bartley Gorman was an Irish gypsy, not a Romani gypsy. That would also make his accent Celtic/Germanic not Latin. Who got mixed up, whatculture or Tom Hardy himself?
Gotta say tho, other than Hardy's performance in Bronson, his acting chops in a barely noticed film "the drop" were frickin unbelievable. "Nobody ever sees you comin, do they?" Scary as hell.
I thought he played the best and perfect bane. The 2 biggest enemies of Batman were chosen perfectly (heath ledger’s joker also) in the Christian bale Batman movies
"Super villian to his own body" why do people repeat this as something relevant? I mean if anyone pays you 2.5 million for putting on 30 pounds of muscle, I would put on 40 pounds... wtf....
When they showed Bane for the first time, I honestly couldn't tell it was Tom Hardy, even when knowing it was him.
Just like Heath Ledger...couldn't see him in his Joker
Happy Industries- "Or perhaps he was wondering why you would shoot a man before throwing him out of a plane."-Bane to CIA Agent
i still don't believe its him
I also found it no-one noticed it was miley when she wore the blond wig in hannah Montana. really weird
I found it odd that Hardy was the only star who did not attend the premiere. Makes me wonder if there was some CGI involved in Bane's creation.
“Peace has cost you your strength, victory has defeated you.”
Easily one of the best lines in the movie
Do you feel in charge?
“Theatricality and Deception, powerful ages to the uninitiated but we are initiated, aren’t we Bruce”
“Ahh....so you think darkness is your ally you merely adopted the dark, I was born in it moulded by it. I never saw the light till I was already a man but, it was nothing to me but BLINDING! The shadows betray you, because they belong to me!”

Nolan's trilogy was meant and made to be realistic! That's it.
Michael Bleckler That makes sense. It bothered me that he wasn't the juiced luchador I like. It was better then other realistic attempts at comics.
Izzy Gee but they clearly established in the prison that the mask kept him from feeling pain...they didn't say how or why they just said the mask does that. that's less realistic than any of the other attempts they just said suspend beliefs and common sense.
so use a jacked up luchador on drugs rather than an organized crime boss or a genius who builds traps to test his own intelligence against the hero's. Oh wait... the luchador isn't on the drugs that make him stupid strong and unbelievably durable and practically impervious to pain and instead give him a mask that makes his pain go away... yeah, realistic is the word I'd use. This movie should have been so much better with a different villain, the way the first 2 were.
BiggEJohnson23 the whole charm of bane in the comics is that without his venom he is as intelligent as batman, the venom he injects straight into his body doesn't make him stupid it just enrages him, much like real world roid rage, having him as some shitty terrorist completely goes against his character considering what happened to his home
he was a luchador in a brazillian prison. where he had to fight to survive. how is that childish? shutup you dunce
I would say Hardy's rendition of Bane was on par with Ledger's Joker.
Definitely than that Bane-Grundy thing from the older movies
True, but that still shouldn't take away from it. Ledger's Joker was one of the finest examples of method acting of all time. The fact that Hardy was able to put in a performance that was even comparable is impressive in itself.
And I would say you are a moron.
Totally agree

Interesting, I'll have to watch that again
The death stare he gives to Dr Pavel after he says “I told them nothing” is pretty badass.

Well, his mask is doing this in the movies.
Josh Paul it wouldnt work if he from tiny to huge from venom in nolanverse, it would be shit on for not fitting with the gritty realism of the trilogy
Josh Paul yes
I didn't like Nolan's take on Batman, or his foes, the Joker is the only good thing to come out of that trilogy

Tom Hardy is Legendary as Bane. My favorite rendition of the character .
The visual aspect of Bane in this movie is SO incredible and intimidating, it should be the canon visual for Bane for ever. even in the comics

Tell me about Bane.Why does he wears a mask?
The Warchief Zeke Jaeger if u watched the film u should know why

During this time he failed to achieve any recongition, much like in his pre-mercenary life, and he came to realize he needed a symbol, or a brand if you will, if anyone was to take him seriously.

After this realization CIA asks if he(Bane) would die if it(the mask) was pulled off. This is a multifaceted question, asking both if the character Bane has build up around his mask would die and if Bane himself is so connected to the idea of himself as a mercenary that he could no longer live life as a real human bean. This draws inspiration from psychological studies regarding the perception of the quality of items based on their supposed brand. Your brain will trick you that items that are in fact identical but with different brands or descriptions, or just items that are differently priced, are is some way different from each other. The value that society places on brands are so high that without them some products would simply cease to be.
Bane responds to this that "it would be extremely painful". He affirms that his dependancy on the idea of himself is so great that dispelling the illusion would hurt him, but not kill him.
CIA affirms that Bane is a Big Guy and while removing the mask might hurt Bane, he can live on without the charade. This is a message directed at the audience. We should not live our lives based on the perception of others, but on what makes each of us happy.

First time I ever saw Tom Hardy was as Shinzon in Star Trek: Nemesis, and I thought he was a scrawny little thing then. How times have changed!
He still is sort of scrawny. Dude had to bulk way up for this role. He had to do it to play Brunson too
Foebane72- first saw him as Twombly in Blackhawk Down. Small roll, but was very good even in that. The guy is a chameleon.
Foebane72 first saw him in a version of withering heights and say what you will about the storyline, he actually was really good as heathcliff.
He bulked up to portray Bronson. "The rest is history," as they say.
When I saw Tom Hardy in Nemesis, I knew he was going to be great. He was great in what is arguably the weakest Star Trek.
Say what ya want about the movie, but Tom Hardy was a phenomenal Bane. He was easily the MVP of the movie despite the movie's direction to have him be an oversized pawn than the main threat. An interaction between Nolan's Joker and Bane would be described only as... Glorious!
For you.
as a matter of fact, had heath ledger not passed away, a scene was allegedly planned for right after bane gives his speech in front of the prison and frees the prisoners. he was supposed to meet joker, and have him be the only prisoner not set free. because the joker is the complete antithesis of bane, as far as villains go. bane, although a terrorist, had good intentions for the city of gotham. joker is the very opposite of that-- he stands for chaos, for the element that cannot be controlled. in the words of michael caine, he just wants to watch the world burn.
Top Down I think that scene could be topped only by Joker doesn’t want to leave. Imagine all the prisioners leaving prison, a whole caos, and Joker standing there, sitting in his prision cell with the orange jumpsuit
Top Down that would have bin amazing, imagine this bad ass mercenary who isnt afraid of anyone but wont let the joker out because hese too crazy...speaks volumes about the Joker and Batman.
He is a big guy!
U U U U
For you
Someone get this hothead outta here.
but is he 6'8" with arms that are as big as cars?
Styk Lannes hah haaaaa I get it. Painful.
I prefer bane to the Joker in the trilogy. I just found his acting to be so convincing
I accuse you of treason, but I respect your descicion.
Ledger and Hardy both were amazing. I hope Hardy gets the Bane role again if Bane ever returns. Rip ledger. 🙏
Then why did you put Bane on the "Top 10 Most Disappointing Villains in Movie History"
Because he was stone-faced drunk that day.
+WhatCulture
I think 2 moments on the plane- when he glares at the good doctor after saying "we had to find out what he told you" and the scathing contempt when he says "crashing this plane" he is able to render huge & subtle emotion with just his two little peepers: Fuck off good acting, that guy has the chops!
Personally I loved his performance in TDKR, despite what others may think of the movie it was fun to watch and was an exceptional finale to the trilogy.
for you
I'd say Bane was better than Joker...
SomeRandomDoctor “despite what others think of the move”? You act like it was panned. Most people like it unless you’re a dumbass hater.
Ave Satanas Luciferian nah
It had some great individual elements, but the fact that he's turns out to a glorified henchman (as opposed to the cunning and extremely intelligent villain from the comics) really sucked! It doubly sucked that the whole movie made him seem like he was in charge of everything (no pun intended)!
Tom Hardy was also chosen for the movie Dunkirk because of his characteristic eyes.
He was to act with his eyes while wearing the flight mask during his Spitfire flying sequences.
The best part about Tom Hardy's Bane is its accuracy of of the character. He NAILS the south-american accent, and really brings that culture into picture with brilliant complexity.
“Blindly jumping into a role”
Literally a picture of Stevie Wonder in a biscuit roll.
Fucking Priceless.
" For you. "
MetalPcAngel gonna be honest with you dude I read that in Oberyn Martell’s voice
It’s funny how this comment was placed right under another comment that says “ He’s a big guy”
i am going to watch dark knight rises tonight x
For you.
Okay ... after Jackman is done with Logan, I'm interested in seeing what Hardy could do with the Wolverine character.
Aaron Alejos that would be absolutely sick! Especially if the X-Men series start to turn a little more like the Batman series and go quite dark. Then yes, Tom Hardy would be fucking perfect as Wolverine especially because we don't see that many grewsome killings more things like that x-Men was my absolute favourite cartoon growing up and my older age Tom Hardy has been my favourite actor ever since I first saw him in Bronson and soon after I saw an interview with him when I was in Amsterdam of all states and it was an interview with Tom and Jonathan Ross. Tom was hardly wasn't even known by that stage but I remember being very very stoned and mushroomed up and saying to my brother, this guy has the potential to be the best actor in the world! I swear, that wasn't on a statement. Yeah sure a lot of people will agree that he's not, but I will stick with my mushroom induced opinion on Mr Tom Hardy! So yes, I only hope Hardy would play the role of Wolverine if the movie franchise choose to take it to a deeper and darker realm.... I hope you agree and more importantly you know what I mean?
Aaron Alejos that makes sense because he's 59 wolverine is a nit smaller but still
Actually original Wolverine height is 5"3. So Tom is still perfect to play him :D
@@minhtridnguyen1649 well fuck me running I'm 5'3"
If you think Hardy is great as Bane, you should see him in Legend where he plays both leading roles as the Kray twins - you'd be convinced they're different people. He is that good.
Easily my favorite villain of the Dark Knight series, and that's saying a lot when you had Heath Ledger's Joker in it.
To be fair, Hardy's Bane completely fit Nolan's universe
I saw the movie "Bronson" and was in awe of Mr. Hardy's ability to become the character that he was portraying. Not just with his acting lines, but his whole body. There isn't a single movie with Mr. Hardy in it that I don't like. He is a very gifted actor.
You might note in the hand gestures of Bane, that his index finger is extended. Relaxed, but extended.
This is a habit, I have noted, in many martial artists who study sword art.
You tend to see it in shooters as well. Trigger discipline follows them everywhere.
Bane's one of the best supervillains on film to date. Much underappreciated I think, especially since the fact that he resembles tyrants and dictators existing in the world today.
I don't think any other superhero film has raised the stakes to the point that TDKR did -- with the entire city being under siege by the bad-guy, and your hero broken beyond reason.
Tom Hardy is my choice to play me in an autobiography of a nobody’s journey through life. He’d crush it. This guy should have an Oscar statue by now for his portrayal of Branson, Bane, Legend and Locke. This guy is a real method acting cat.
The "lovely voice" line is one of my all-time favorites. Cool to hear it was improvised!
Голос Тома до мурашек ❤❤❤
1 thing that made him terrible he was Talia's lackey.......
Yea that kind of ruined it and the way they killed him at the end was a bit awkward.
"We both know i have to kill you know"
Batman: "But she just said.......?"
tony bryant well isn't he like totally in love with her in the comics
IshyTheGamer:D 1 terrible version
tony bryant yeah I totally blanked that we were talking about bane being talias lackey when I actually thought we were talking about batman. Yeah I'm an idiot
TDK and Rises are amazing. Bane and Catwoman were perfection in Rises, which is one of the most underrated films ever. Great final chapter and the best ending to a film series that I can remember.
He is just a remarkably talented guy. He can do every and any role convincingly and flawlessly.
Bane was actually my favorite villain from the Nolan Trilogy!!
He was a fucking awesome Bane! Best Batman Villan!
DIRT McGIRT 2nd best

Tom Hardy nailed it when he played Bane in The Dark Knight Rises ! :) Christopher Nolan created an amazing superhero trilogy and The Dark Knight trilogy is simply amazing :)
Bane is a particularly tough character to play. Tom did fantastic.
Romani gypsies have nothing to do with Latin peoples! Romani gypsies originate in India, even though the name sounds similar to the Romans' (the Latins) and Romanians' (one of the peoples of latin origin).
With no survivors!
Who said anything about Romani gypsies being of latin descent?
I'd say tinkers called Gorman would have bigger issues with this than being called Roma
Da frate da....
@@TheEugeep the video did.
"...it's still Romani latin" (not a thing)
"Blindly jumping into a roll..." It took my brain a second to process what I was looking at and then I lost it.
He is equally fantastic in the tv show Taboo now.
The best ever bane Tom hardy is a master at what he does
Tom Hardy is just plain amazing, love this guy, love his acting.
“Ooo you think darkness is your ally? You merely adopted the dark. I was born in it, moulded by it and by the time I saw the light it was already BLINDING!!” I love this line even thoughts a lie because-as we find out he was not the child who escaped the dark.
It wasn't a lie. Bane was born in the pit. He simply never escaped, Talia brought Ras Al Ghul back to the pit and that's when he was brought out.
You're forgetting the key piece of that line that tells us in that scene that he isn't the child who escaped. "I was born in it. Molded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but blinding."
2:14 “blindly jumping into a roll”
omg hahah
Tom Hardy played as both Bane and Venom. Interesting...
Marvel and DC. It works lol
But didn't use Venom as Bane.
And that is why the symbiotic venum likes tom hahahaha
The scene that tells you that he can really act is the first one. Just look at his eyes during the plane/kidnapping scene...
"Now is not the time for fear... that comes later." He sounded almost cheerful when he said that. Really, really disquieting. Great stuff.
1. he wears lifts
2. the line "That's a lovely voice" was improvised
3. the use of hand-on-shoulder
4. he took the role without reading the script
5. he loves batman, which pushed him to work harder
6. the voice is based on bare knuckle boxer barely gorman.
7. he trained to the max
8. he acts with more than his mouth. (since the mask covered it)
It's a new corner that acting has taken. I rate Tom Hardy as the best English actor. The subtle performance technique is the new form. This was pioneered by Anthony Hopkins, and I regard both of these actors, to be the best actors on the planet. 🌎
Спасибо, что по достоинству оценили Тома. Я его обожаю. Том бог❤❤❤ Бриллиант среди британских актеров.
I'm pretty sure Bartley Gorman was an Irish gypsy, not a Romani gypsy. That would also make his accent Celtic/Germanic not Latin. Who got mixed up, whatculture or Tom Hardy himself?
Can't a Romani Gypsy be Irish, or a Irish Gypsy be Romani? I think so, but not sure.
"after all, how do you top heath ledgers joker.?" you don't
For you.
Gotta say tho, other than Hardy's performance in Bronson, his acting chops in a barely noticed film "the drop" were frickin unbelievable. "Nobody ever sees you comin, do they?" Scary as hell.
Tom hardy did a perfect fucking job as bane
YOU'RE A BIG GUY

After TDK I didn't think any villain could match Ledger's Joker. Hardy did it with Bane.
"You are...pure evil"
"I'm necessary evil"
another thing is that tom hardy is just simply a fucking PHENOMENAL actor
Even without the venom suit. He's still strong af
I loved the moment when he placed his hand on his shoulder... that simple intimidating factor...
Thank god somebody's praising this character. I think he rocks.
Tom Hardy is Super Awesome
Bane in this movie felt like more like deathstroke’s character. 10 steps ahead of you, cold, calculated and skilled in combat.
Tom Hardy is crushing it in the show Taboo.
I didn't even realize that guy Bane kills is Krennic
Mandalore863 Two times Mendelsohn gets shut down like a bitch 😂. Hand on shoulder by Band and choked out by Vader.
In Soviet Gotham, aspirations choke YOU
Master of subtlety and imbuing his characters with dynamic energy
I thought he played the best and perfect bane. The 2 biggest enemies of Batman were chosen perfectly (heath ledger’s joker also) in the Christian bale Batman movies
"Super villian to his own body" why do people repeat this as something relevant? I mean if anyone pays you 2.5 million for putting on 30 pounds of muscle, I would put on 40 pounds... wtf....
The part when bane is walking around the stock exchange and gives somebody the head node....i love that part..
Also when he grabs his helmet from that random dude holding it then says "Thank You" politely. 🤣
