LMAO. Easy there, Alfred.

I was dying from holding back my laughter from that scene.

[Donut]

She did have a bad death scene

[thedarks0ldier]

When the pit takes four syllables to say "Rise."

Haha, yes.

The only thing I found funny was Talia's over the top death. Really you couldn't just close your eyes, no she had to drop her head down too

[chintai80]

"Of course!"

^ i chuckled at the way he said this in the prologue. i didn't think it was bad per say, it was just unintentionally funny cuz it sounded so shrill yet contrasts with his appearance of a formidable bad guy.

[tekken]

anybody listen to Ralph Garman and Kevin Smith's Babble-On podcast? the trigger scene would be perfect for "Exquisite Acting"!

Talia's death. Creepy,awkward and hillarious. It was a bad cut or Nolan wanted it that way.

Bane taking a missle on his chest.Unexpected scene.

Maybe Nolan intended giving such weird ends both Bane & Talia.It was like something from Tarantino movie.

I love the growl in Bale's voice. I just don't get why he's slurring his words? It was apparent even in TDK when he was talking to Maroni, and Dent before the chase scene.

Talia's death scene was terrible. It was like Schumacher directed that scene.

His introduction of Dr. Pavel to the stadium of Gothmites as the only hope for disarming the bomb....and then his crushing that hope after said introduction by snapping his neck infront of everyone was just funny to me.

Lol it was becoming comical after a while. It reminded me a lot of MacGruber ripping peoples throats out.

I picked up on the star wars influence too. Even the bat sound fx sounded very much like they were pulled from star wars.

I think it was also a throwback to Begins when Gordon emerges from the Tumbler at the end.

All of that sounded good to me, it's when he says "Ras al Ghul's DESTINY!" that almost took me completely out of the scene

He has quite the lisp. It's actually the real reason why his voice doesn't always work, more than anything else. All the quotes people don't like, for example the "This city just showed..." from TDK or "It's not what I do..." from BB, his lisp is real prominent. It's always why you hardly see him smile or laugh with his mouth wide open.

[Doc Samson]

Lol, true, doesn't help much I suppose.

[kvz5]

Bane tying up Batman. I don't know why but I found it hilarious. Bane is this big baddie and he's tying up Batman who's already stabbed anyway.

[The Joker]

Talia's death raises chuckles of derision.

[Deserana]

Don't remember Talia's death scene but I don't remember every finiding it funny. Well at least not as funny as some are making out on here.

The only line I really find funny is when Batman, Selina, Gordon are by the truck. They need to get te bomb away and the exchange is something like -

Selina: "There is nothing we can do"
Batman: "I CAN TAKE IT BY THE BAYYYYYYY"

Seriously the growl here is so OTT.

Also Bane's prologue is just....

But many words in English, when translated to another language are in fact a combination of words and have more syllables. It goes the other way too. There are words in other langauges that are one word, but when translated into english are longer.

Bane's death got some chuckles from the crowd at my 2nd viewing too.

[Greens]

It's funny that the IMAX camera that was wrecked by Anne's double died for nothing because they didn't even use those shots in the film.

[Mr. Wooden Alligator]

The close ups of Gordon's bum when he was on Talia's bomb truck.

[hopefuldreamer]

TBH, Bane's voice made me chuckle the whole way through. And it only gets worse on repeat viewing's for me.

Especially after seeing it with one of my best friends, who came out going 'What was with the 'old man voice' Bane had', and then proceeded to do an impression that had me crying with laughter.

I'll never understand why they used that stupid voice.

[Wedge A.]

"Every cop in the city is down there!"
"... Not every cop!"

Cut to haggard Jim Gordon in bed. Hysterical.

Because it sounds bad-ass to most people.

Bane's voice is one of my favourite things about the film. Rather that voice than "argggggghhhhhh must killllll batman argghhhhhhh BATMAN MUSTTTTTT DIEEEEEEEEE". Its something different and very effective.

The scene where Fox takes Tate underground to the fusion reactor, there is a following scene showing Bruce talk about the fusion reactor. During this scene, they make a quick cut to Fox, and Freeman has the funniest expression ever! It made me giggle both times I've seen it. He has his arms crossed and he's like dead eyed.

4) Darth Vader-esque

It's not the accent or the distortedness that bothers me, it's how high pitched it gets in places. It just sounds really off, and doesn't fit with the mood the actual words are trying to create.

It makes takes me out of the moment, and makes me laugh.

Which is a shame, because there are moments like the 'Do you feel in control' line, where Bane literally owns.

That trigger scene is going to be parodied big time. Whereas "this city just showed you it's ready to believe in good" made want to cringe, the trigger scene in TDKR made me want to burst out laughing.
