The Dark Knight Rises Bane

[comiskeybum]

What are the chances we will see Bane break batman's back in this film? and if Bane broke batman's back in the comic books and he was a parapalegic, how did he come back in later comic books? did he discover new medical technology or what?

For the most part I quite agree, I would prefer the venom used through the usual tubes. But a big consensus seems to be that if Bane has tubes, Batman could easily just cut them while fighting him. In fact, as tactical as Batman is that would be his very first move.

Not if Bane is faster.

Hide them.

Or, if you're okay with a syringe, then you must be okay with the Venom not going into his brain at all, just into his arm. That cuts out the tubes entirely, and he can still have an automatic delivery device conviently attached right to his arm.

Fair compromise?

Even in the comics I always saw that as a glaring weakness or disadvantage and its for that reason I would rather if vemon was not used by Bane in this movie. Let Bane just be a potential superior opponent to Batman.

Pretty slim chance I would say!(although Nolan has said that he wants to end this as a trilogy and a way that there can't really be a sequel.....something like that).

Bruce had a friend(Jean-Paul Valley)and he replaced Bruce as Batman for a few months!,Bruce healed some how(forgot how)and became Batman again after not really liking how his friend did things.

 

[PreK]

I happen to think the syringe is a ******ed idea for completely unrelated reasons, not the least of which is that I see no reason to deviate from the method used in the comics, and the fact that he often juices up mid-battle, so it'd be quite inconvenient to stop & shoot up a needle.

It's also inconvenient for him to have his main source of power flailing around in the open with no way of protecting it. Just as inconvenient for Bats to incapacitate anyone with an 8 foot blanket to drag around. Minor flaws are inescapable. A clever filmmaker should be able to manage it so it isn't so obvious to the viewer.

If Nolan can make it so the tubes aren't so easily severed, fine. As is I've always found it to be a glaring fault in design.

cool.

How's this for the ending of the movie? Bane breaks batman's back, but Bane does not know that batman cut his tubes to his brain at the same time. Both men fall to the ground......Bane dies.........fade to black........we then see an image of Bruce Wayne in a wheel chair and Alfred is closing down the batcave for good. Fade to black............and thus the trilogy ends. Bane is dead, gotham is safe, however batman is done as well.

Batman ironicly pays for breaking his golden rule in that he wont kill. But he had to kill Bane but Bane broke his back for his trouble. haha

i think it could work

Like I said to someone's concept drawing of Bane, put the tubes closer to his arm instead of flailing about.

Here is one possible look for Bane that I personally like.

My bets are that Bane is the mastermind behind a massive supply of Venom into Gotham. The League of Shadows is funding the Venom supply. Bane essentially takes over the Gothan underworld and plays a massive game of wits and dueling strategies against Batman.

There is no way we'll see the "tubes" or "Mexican wrestling mask" in Nolan's version. We'll only see Bane souped up on Venom once, maybe twice in the film, and it'll be via needle, not tube.

 

[terry78]

In all honesty the tube should be concealed for the most part so that Batman doesn't even know how he's this physically strong until he puts it together later in the film.

 

[comiskeybum]

.....Maybe!

and yanno really that does not really close the book on the franchise because another director could use the story from dark knight rises and in the next movie we see Bruce Wayne's friend take over as the new batman just like in the comic books.

Not a bad idea actually...

 

[Anchor_Content]

No way. Too bleak. And where's the "Rises" element? We have to remember the redemption theme. Somehow, Gotham wakes up to the fact that Batman has been saving its ass over three films and comes to his rescue.

Not sure how Bane dies -- except by Venom overdose. Or maybe it makes him catatonic. Not every major villain has to die.

.....Maybe!

 

[elgato]

Never cared much for Bane, but Tom Hardy's hotness is definately getting me excited of that.

 

[comiskeybum]

Lets just hope that Tom Hardy is a better villain in this movie than he was in "Star Trek: Nemesis"

It took this post to make me finally understand your username. Dunno why that didn't click before.

Never seen it, but considering his work since then, I'd say that's pretty much a guarantee.

I'm pretty sure Bruce just healed naturally over time for the most part. It took him a while though. If I recall correctly the wrestler Kurt angle broke his neck participating in the olympics but later healed pretty well. And I also recently heard about a football player whose back was broken on the field. I think he's able to walk now though. So severe injures like that are possible to heal from in some circumstances.

And Bruce also had an incredible training program by being mentored by Lady Shiva. But in the films, I simply don't see it happening at all. It would take too long for Bale's Batman to heal, no way can they end the movie with Batman breaking his back(thus no conclusion since this is Nolan's last movie). And mostly, one of the most important parts about Knightfall is that Batman was very far into his career when he was 'broken.' By the time TDKR starts he will have been Batman for what? One or two years? It just won't have the same impact if he breaks his back and loses everything this early in his career.

I could see Batman turning knight fall 180 after recovering injuries from Bane’s beat down. For example he taunts Bane and set false alarms witch make bane inject the venom more than what is healthy. Bane’s body will build a Torrance from the venom making him in a disadvantage. Feeling ill like a cocaine addict going cold turkey. The Batman rises and gets his redemption.

Thats a lot better than Batman cuting Bane's tubes.


What are good Bane storys? I only read Knightfall and No Mans land

Vengeance of Bane I & II are a must.

Bane of the Demon & Legacy are good if you can get your hands on them.

Two arcs in Gotham Knights where he teams up with Batman.

And Secret Six.

Um………………….. An injection to the blood stream goes directly to the brain. It’s the fastest way to absorb. I don’t think you can Literally inject anything to the brain lol

The problem with Bane having tubes is that it's really sort of preposterous. They drilled holes in the back of his head to put them there. It's crazy. Obviously whether or not it seems absurd is all in the execution, but I'm not going to be bothered if they go a different route.

As for the syringe thing, fortunately we can see injections without actually using syringes. Check out the handheld injectors the fear gas antidote is administered with in Batman Begins. Gordon jabs himself in the leg with one. Doesn't look like somebody shooting up or anything like that, so I imagine no overzealous censor is going to get his panties in a bunch.

 

[Dark Knight]

The critique of the tubes was definitely valid. also for those who don't know this was by Tony Moore for the new Venom series, I just, very crudely I may add, turned it into what I expect Nolan to do with Bane.

This is nice.

A Bane/Deadshot hybrid.

I would open the up the mouth area of the mask however.
