Well Avengers did aim to be unabashedly a superhero movie in every sense of the term. Probably wasn't for you.
The Phase 1 movies and Nolan's trilogy are two different beasts with different ends which are to be admired for different reasons. |

Avengers is cool and all but it's something I'd see twice and not really feel like watching it again unless I was in the right mood. I guess just prefer movies like V For Vendetta, The Crow or Nolan's trilogy over most Marvel films, even though I like those Marvel films the one's I mentioned just seem to be more intricate and have more replay value to me.

Have no idea what the Mackem is talking about in regards to Bane's strength.
Nothing he did in the movie seemed superhuman. |

I don't know, I've seen jacked dudes crack concrete pillars in tons of action movies.
Besides, martial artists break concrete all the time, and this character was trained by the deadliest assassins in the world. It's not like he smashed it to pieces, he just broke a piece off. As for lifting the dude up with just his upper body, yeah, I'll give you that, but that's still just nit picking at that point. I just assumed the just over exaggerated his strength a little bit in that scene. Super powers never crossed my mind. |

Yeah, I just figured he built that body in hell, honed his fighting with the League, and the result was a dude who could punch through a wall or lift a (basically defenseless) man over his head with ease.

I was just thinking it wouldn't be the worst idea to do a movie based sort of off the Arkham City/Asylum series

Bane, after exerting a literal shit ton of energy, and having his mask that was releasing his pain killer partially disabled, managed to punch through a fucking concrete LOAD BEARING pillar.
I call bullshit on any of you assholes thinking that some body could in any sense of understanding do this. Try punching a punching bag for 45 seconds, and then rear back and punch the shit out of the bag. I guarantee that you won't be able to lift an arm. Now I would venture to guess that the pain that Bane felt shen Bats started disabling the mask sent a spike of adrenaline that sent him to another level of strength. |

Yeah, it's anaesthetic gas or something. Dulls the pain enough so he can function.

The way the flashbacks were going I thought there was going to be a reveal over his strength because he seemingly went from normal but compassionate thug in prison to some super powerful guy with a mask. Just felt cheated out of an explanation. The villains from the other films didn't need this as there were no flashbacks into their characters origins. Also they didn't (in my limited assessments) have characteristics that were beyond mental issues. That bit about his mask passed me by because it seemed to be fast paced when they were explaining. I didn't catch anything past, the prison doctors fixed him up and he has a mask. I had no prior knowledge of Bane and I don't know how much of this is people calling on prior knowledge and how much of it is what I have missed in the film. I'll end up re-watching at a later date just to see what it was that has 'thrown me'. |

I just read somewhere it was revealed Blake's full name was Robin John Blake and he started hanging around in the Batcave once Wayne was gone.
So I figured SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT SON IT MUST BE ROBIN THE FAGGOT BALLET DANCER! |

@JimmyMess - Thoroughly agree. Hans Zimmer has done a superlative job with the music. Superlative.

ok bane was wearing a mask pumping him full of pain killers. So one could say that he was stronger because he wasnt being affected by the pain of muscle strain when he would exert himself.
also he was trained by the league of shadows... grew up in a prison where he fought for his life every day aaand the end where he punched through a wall... batman was starting to beat him and had broken his mask and one could say he had an adrenalin spike... OR it was a FUCKING MOVIE and an awesome one at that so stop bitching |

Did Bane really grow up in a prison considering the switcheroo twist? Was the pain killers reference made in the movie because I didn't catch that?
It was a movie doesn't cut it considering how the other two didn't beg these sort of questions from me. I'm asking because I'm wanting opinions. |

Actually I'd calmly and assertively explain why you're wasting my time with such questions. You'd get used to it after a while, and eventually learn to think for yourself before you bother me with banal inquiry.
I'm actually more empowering than condescending or volatile. Khuntry and Ermax can fill you in. |
