Yup. Nothing is universally hated.

And don't forget two different construction banners in TDK as well as someone using the wrong directional side during the Tumbler elevation, lol.

When he's right next to the cops, activates "stealth" and all the sudden he's gone. Lol

But banners? What?

I don't want to imagine a world where people think that Uwe Boll's movies are good.

Oh, that. In a trilogy where the cops seemed so dumbed down, it was easy to overlook them not noticing that the Tumbler just shut off its light and turned the engine's volume down, lol.

But banners? What?

In order to properly defeat batman he created a scenario where Batman would be tired and all Bane would have to do is come in beat him up and break him. So his major traits other then his extreme strength is his mind.

Deathstroke is a fantastic assassin that could go toe to toe with many meta humans true..That is great for Deathstroke. He is another character all together and would approach defeating Batman much differently. Deathstroke is a lonewolf and thus he would go about things in a different way.

Batman is a master planner and much like Sherlock Holmes, he would prefer to be 1-2 steps ahead of his enemy, thats just how Batman rolls. When Batman gets outsmarted it is a greater defeat then someone who can match him in combat.

And yes not every character has to be a mastermind to be a threat, but when it comes to Bane yes he should be one. Or else you get Bane from Batman and Robin.

The point of my post was to show that a character like Deathstroke who happens to be the smartest tactician on DC Earth is'nt usually a mastermind type so why does Bane have to be?
IMO Batman has too many masterminds,it's almost cliched now. Usually masterminds do absolutely nothing in Batman stories other than being shoehorned in to the plot at the climax.
David Finch's Bane was a mastermind and he was crap.

Where can I read David Finch's Bane?

Yep!

That is all.

[webhead731]

As a Ghost Rider fan that movie is an abomination to life as we know it. I did not think it could have been worse than the first movie.

[Savage]

I thought it got everything right that the first movie didn't. Yeah, it got a crapload more wrong but I felt the things it did right outshown those. Plus Nick Cage made a friggin' buffet out of the scenary in that movie. It's like he came in thinking "You want acting?! I'll show you ****in' acting! I'll act the **** out of this movie! BLLLAAAARHG!!!"

...It was...fun. Not to mention way more violent.

But that's enough derailing. Just wanted to show that there's people out there who do like Ghost Rider 2 (If only for ALL the wrong reasons).

Off-topic, but is that Jesse Hughes in your avy?

[Savage]

Why yes. Yes it is. I do love me some Eagles of Death Metal/Boots Electric.

I absolutely love the first two on the mannequin heads. I like the skull look even more but I really like those two.

Love it! Hardy as Bane was a pure bad ass!

Never see a villain like him in a CBM film ever I think.

Ledger was fantastic, but the way Hardy put on the intimidation factor with a nask on the whole film and using his body language was just great!

[AnneFan]

His walk was good, I think. This relaxed stroll, completely unfazed about what he's doing or about to do. In what Hardy could control he delivered.

Nice video

Even something as simple as walking , their posture , with certain actors are enough to shows traits about himself. His confidence. His calmness. Total control.

[Greens]

Really great performance by Hardy. The voice, his posture, his eyes specifically. Watch the scene with Bruce and Bane in the pit and look at his eyes.

Remember when we got that still of Bane with puppy eyes? It all makes sense now

But that death scene.....LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL.

Rises is probably my favourite movie ever, personally, but every time I watch it I seriously can't begin to fathom why they didn't reshoot that death scene. It's seriously one of the cheesiest deaths in cinema history IMO.

I think he was having a flashback to some of the stuff he saw happening in the Pit.
