So many people were cast perfectly. Michael Caine as Alfred Morgan Freeman as Lucius Christian Bale as Batman/Bruce Wayne Heath Ledger as Joker Gary Oldman as Gordon Aaron Eckhart as Harvey Dent/Two-Face
There's something hilarious about a cop and a DA talking about internal affairs and international criminals while a guy in a Halloween costume stands calmly to the side like he was always there.
I always thought it would be funny if he turned to run when they weren't looking and tripped over his cape into a mess and they had to help him up all awkward ha ha
*I like how Batman is just standing not saying a word while the camera rotates around Dent and Gordon to catch their perspective points of view* *Nolan is a damn genius*
@Niconacho Z Jared wasn't a bad actor, he is good but the suicide squad just wasnt great in the design and director's choice. It's kinda humiliate him when the fan start mocking him over the joker.
@Niconacho Z I read somewhere that when Jared heard he was not the preferred choice for starring role he tried to convince wb execs to pull the plug on the movie (edit: the Joker 2019 I mean)
sy las nope he sucked. Made that laugh on his own lol. He also acted like he sold the part before even filming.. basically wanted the hype that ledger left and tried pulling the same shit with his idiotic method acting. Sending dead rats and stupid shit the other cast
Paloma Pseudoautista yeah I’m sure that wasn’t a fatherly relationship because Alfred raised Bruce or anything. If two dudes are affection they must be gay right?
I must say, out of all the actors that have portrayed Bruce Wayne, Christian Bale most definitely embodies everything about the character’s persona to it’s full extent in Nolan’s trilogy. The Cruise ship scene alone where he goes off into sea with the entire Russian ballet, ultimately canceling Rachel and Harvey’s date was playboy Billionaire Bruce at it’s finest. Outstanding performance.
Batman may be debatable, but Bale was the best Bruce Wayne. Affleck 's Wayne was portrayed brilliantly given the setting of a battle weary 20 years Batman, but in terms of beginnings and being a billionaire, Bale is unbeatable.
@@optimus2008 I'd say the only weakness Bale's batman had in my eyes was his batman voice(but let's be real it's really hard to take any man trying to sound deeper and raspy seriously)
@@zacharyjackson1829 yea man.. gotta admit, when I first got into the trilogy, I really didn’t notice the voice thing that much, but after watching multiple times, it came to my attention that bale’s bat voice is just a pain listening to at times.. just seems ways to try hard.
@@optimus2008 personally, I think Pattinson has a little bit more of edge when it comes to Batman. I didn’t mind his reclusive, secluded personality when it came to his Bruce Wayne impersonation, but it would be very interesting to see what he would do with that character from a ladies man point of view.. lol. That’s why The Batman 2 needs to be crazy good. Like up there with TDK type of good. We just need more..
I just wish his batman voice stays coherent like that of Keaton or Affleck, not like Bale's incoherent thick voice like he got sore throat while doing batman...that was the only thing which puts me down in this trilogy
0:43 We can see that even when facing Dent, Gordon can clearly still see Batman in the side easily, seconds later Batman is gone, so Gordon 100% knew Batman was gone before Dent turned to realice it and didnt even bother mentioning Batman sneaking out to Dent just to troll him.
I am about 100% certain she was not flattered. More likely annoyed and incredulous at the fact he did that deliberately to ruin her date with Harvey. She clearly was not flattered as she planned to marry Harvey despite this. Plus he is absconding with a Russian ballet squad. The implication is that he is sleeping with them (even though that did not happen). There is nothing flattering about that.
@@trueblue6201 I think it was more amused and a tad impressed at the length he went to create an alibi, since she already knows he's batman. Or how he pranked them since he's the one that invited them to the performance.
I don’t think she knew. It’s not like Bruce would be telling her he’s goin to get Lau or Harvey told her he was working with Batman at all. Also wouldn’t call it an intentional way to ruin their date since the alibi was Alfred’s idea and stopping the mob is more important than one date so Batman wasn’t going to change his plans for such a trivial reason.
@@xThe_Wendigo I agree with you about Rachel not knowing about Lau. However I think you are wrong about the rest. Bruce knew Rachel liked ballet (she recognized the prima ballerina he brought as her date which most people outside the ballet world would not). She also told him Harvey was taking her to see it next week. Alfred suggested he needed an alibi. The alibi chosen was a spur of the moment choice by Bruce as he did not have the need for one planned until after he had dinner with Rachel and Harvey. Alfred did not say what his alibi should be. He deliberately chose the ballerinas to ruin the date.
I forgot about thick-neck boy Batman. Looking back on it, I love that they made the ability to turn his head (a classic problem with movie batman suits) into an actual plot-point. They could've just started the film with the new suit like it was never a problem at all. Instead, we get to see the evolution of the suit DURING the story.
Small details likd that make the movie so much more immersive. Similar to Ironman, they imply that there are certain platforms you take for certain tasks.
That was a problem Christian Bale, and by extension, the rest of the crew on Batman Begins, had with the cowl design. Christopher Nolan, not one to pass on making a design element in one of his movies as realistic as possible, chose to forego the usual “the suit update happened in between movies and we have a throwaway line mentioning the upgrade” and instead opted to have Batman discover the limitation, realize the consequences of the limitation, and develop the new suit on-screen.
yeah it's like the dynamic between James Bond and Q, there's so many moments in the Dark Knight trilogy that pay homage to James bond movies, I wouldn't be surprised if Christopher Nolan directs a Bond film one day
Seeing how vulnerable the suit is at 1:57 makes me realize that Battinson is the most powerfully armored Batman of all movie renditions. Battinson literally walks through a hail of gunfire, gets shot point blank including by large caliber shotgun, and only gets winded.
what about the stupid armor suit in B v S? But yeah I noticed that scene. No suit is stopping a high caliber rifle shot at that close of range. Even if it did the wearer is still going to be severely injured from the impact.
A lot of folks aren't with his heavy armor in The Batman..but honestly its logical to me. Bruce would need heavy armor to survive night after night as Batman in the beginning. He doesn't have the experience and wouldn't be able to afford those kinda mistakes. Theres simply noway Batman wouldn't eat A LOT OF BULLETS in his early career. Even Bale's first suit was the most heavily armored and wasn't until he was Batman for 2 years before he went lighter and more exposed. Just my opinion.
One of my favourite parts of Dark Knight is how much it actually cares about building up a dynamic crime story. It honestly can sometimes feel like a mob movie that just so happens to have Batman and the Joker in it. I love it.
In that case, if you haven't read it already, definitely look at the source material, The Long Halloween. Nolan saw that and based the trilogy off of it, it's definitely like "reading the movies". It's inspired, but not heavy-handed.
@@nerdock4747 True. The Killing Joke inspired parts of TDK as well. Very interesting readings. I have both. I’m trying to get my hands on the one that inspired TDKR. I believe it’s called Knightfall or something.. Bane looks so cool in the comics.

Even in real life.. Some companies build things separately and have many diffrent peoole build random stuff they have no idea what it would be in the end.
And also keep in mind most of these are already existing prototypes that Lucius Fox is just gathering, they made this stuff years ago for the military.
A really interesting observation but Batman's gauntlets have always given him an edge over his opponents in this trilogy. In Batman Begins he broke Ra's al Gul blade. In Dark Knight he managed to throw Joker's balance by impaling him with the blades from his gauntlet. In Dark Knight Rises the gauntlet ripped the tubes in Bane's mask which numbed his pain this more or less incapacitated him because he was in so much pain.
It was a nice way to show that like the cape and the belt, the gauntlet is no mere decoration, but a part of Batman's repertoire due to its functionality.
The reason for this is actually kind of funny. Nolan said during the pre-production of Batman Begins that he wanted to get rid of the gauntlets because he didn’t see what purpose they served for the costume and Nolan only wanted things on the costume that were practical for Batman being Batman. David Goyer being a huge fan of Batman was not cool with the idea of them being removed from the costume so he wrote practical purposes for the gauntlets into each movie so that Nolan would have to keep them.
I love how Gordon and Dent have this lengthy, dramatic discussion while Batman stands there silent, asks *one* question, then disappears without being noticed.
You can tell Gordon is already fed up with the disappearing act to just to go "He does that." It's my favorite running gag in this entire franchise, no matter the production.
@@UltimaKeyMaster Except this time, Gordon got to watch him do it, and watch him do it to *Dent* of all people. He must have been holding back a pretty big laugh.
I love the subtle humour in this film, especially the banter between Bruce and Alfred/Lucius. “What’s wrong with a phone call?” “Perhaps you should read the instructions first?” “Now we wouldn’t wanna make things too easy now would we?” The dialogue comes off so natural and doesn’t seem forced like most superhero movies nowadays. *cough* Marvel Studios *cough*
@@thechronicler1453 ironically enough I went on a binge watching all marvel movies leading up to endgame. Don’t get me wrong Marvel makes some great movies but their audience is now directed towards children, which can be definitely make their films have a corny humour about them. Nolan’s films are meant to be taken more serious and orientated for adults. I was mainly joking with my original comment, so don’t take it heart buddy
@@dorreyeet1529 Yeah, picture that. Picture it in the script. Just like - Bruce's transcript: "......................................... hee hee ho ho hoooo" (echo)
Actually, it's a reference to the Catwoman character in general and not at all directed at the awful 1992 Tim Burton film. If anything, it was foreshadowing Selena Kyle's character to make an appearance in the next film.
ExodusBF4 It may have made Batman what he is today. But I would rather have a not known bad ass Batman with a moral code then a dark edgy that outright kills. AND I HATE Batman’s origins in the movie. Like why link it? It’s a bad movie.
@@vectra8412 The Christopher Nolan meth. Tim Burton's vision of Batman was so skrewball awful. People only thought it was good because the only thing we had to compare to was the Adam West TV series

Coz Gordon didn’t want to look At his men when dent told him about his team he was only focused on joker an the mob boss didn’t realize his men are easy for joker manipulate that’s why dent was mad..
@@felixw4993 He basically asked her to spin around, indicating that he will in fact apply the sun tan lotion, and not ask them to apply it themselves. Alfred a dirty, dirty dog
One of the best things about this series is how Bruce and Fox talk to each other. That secret code where they talk all about Batman without ever mentioning Batman. The way they tip toe around it playfully.
bruce :" alright fox, darkside's coming and the world's about to end, I need a weapon that could at least scratch him lucious: :" *the CIA used to....* "
Bruh, why do you not have more than 100k likes? 😂😂😂😂😂😂 This is gold! 😂Bruce is so used to coming to Fox on such short notice with Fox having exactly what Bruce may need but for this scenario???? Jesus Christ what was the CIA planning for??? 😂😂😂
I love how stoically Batman just watches Dent and Gordon bicker the whole time, only speaking to confirm his next task, then immediately leaving. He's completely focus driven while the other two let their emotions waste time and play the blame game.
To be fair he probably thought they would only go after him personally not the woman he loved (its like they said in batman year one animated movie "when a man is a father hes never truly free" that kind of applies it Rachel being the one person he cares about) You always gotta remember you have peoople you care about and your enemies know who they are and theres enough cause they become viable targets
@@marioss2167 Nolan's aware that Batman's armor doesn't protect him 100%, so making the armor focused on agility with the tradeoff of less protection against knives and gunfire is the self-aware part.
@2:52 hahahaha Alfred really out here thinking it's "his problem" to be dealing with these hot ballet chicks....lol Nolan really made these characters fun
I wonder if alfred got lucky with more than one of them after Bruce left and he had the boat to himself with the entire ballet unless he simply got a nice massage with a happy ending?
Since when do depressed people get motivated to launch a campaign against crime and reach the peak of human perfection? Do u even know how depression works?
@@brucew565 living in a cave alone being antisocial being numb to pain being unsympathetic to others pain his parents death sent him into a depressive state and his way of coping is trying to save gotham
@@urdilatedeyez *"living in a cave alone..being anti social"* Being alone is not a sign of depression. Everyone has a different temparament and a different personality. He stays alone because he realizes that his job is important and he doesnt want people to get close to him and get hurt. Bruce actually wants to get close to people. In the first movie, he wanted to be with Rachel. He also took a liking towards Talia in TDKR. He retired finally and was committed to Selina at the end of TDKR. He always has Alfred as company. A lot of people give priority to their work over relationships. That doesnt mean they are depressed. *"Being numb to pain...being unsympathetic"* What?? How is he unsympathetic? Bruce genuinely wants to improve Gotham. He genuinely cares about Gotham. He belives in giving criminals second chances. That is why he doesnt kill them. He routinely spends money on charity to uplift the poor and the destitute. He routinely puts his life in danger to help people. How does that any of it sound unsympathetic? Did u even understand the movie? While in the pit, Bruce says, "I am afraid of dying while my city burns". Why would he say that if he was unsympathetic? *"His parents death sent him into a depressive state"* He felt helpless after his parents' death. However, he channeled his grief and trauma into genuinely improving Gotham City. That is Post-Traumatic Growth. That is the opposite of depression. Even real life psychologists believe that Batman is a poster child for post traumatic growth. When a victim of trauma makes meanining out of their trauma and decides to help people, then they are not depressed. They have effectively come out of depression
@@Glitcher2000 I'm not gay and I would hate doing that, it's digusting and stupid why can't they apply there sun-tan lotion by themselves, they are not children but grown people damn it, that's what I do, it's easy
@@fanboycomix9677 Shut up, snowflake. Try to keep an open mind for God's sake. Batman killing was a plot point. And Ben Affleck is the best live action batman.
Those prep, discussion and planning add so much detail on the mission the hero is about to accomplish. Sadly we don't see these often in superhero movies.
2:10 "Should do fine againist cats" I feel like he just indirectly foreshadowed Selina Kyle in TDKR (despite the fact that her and Bruce Wayne actually never fights up againist each others)
0:14 It’s so sad that Harvey knew which ones of Gordon’s troops were under Maroni’s influence, making their betrayal leading to the creation of Two-Face sting so much more for him.
They could have change suits in between the films, but they actually brought back the suit from Batman Begins and then Bruce asked Fox for an upgraded one. That's pretty legit. Something more superhero films should try to do.
Did anyone notice the fact that he discusses the new suit being vulnerable to knives and protecting him from “cats” which foreshadows him being stabbed by Talia and his interaction with Catwomen in DKR? 🤯
"Now that's more like it Mr. Wayne." My favourite part of Lucius Fox's character is how unabashedly _into it_ he is. He knew from second one he was arming and armouring the Batman. At this point, he's multiple years into a criminal conspiracy that would send everyone involved to prison. And he is absolutely thrilled to get to play his part. He's Q in a Bond movie and he KNOWS that and he's just loving it.
Nolan’s addition of a scene depicting the upgrades in the suit is great, most of the time in Batman and other films they just turn up with an upgraded suit and we just accept it

More like broke something
A really interesting observation but Batman's gauntlets have always given him an edge over his opponents in this trilogy. In Batman Begins he broke Ra's al Gul blade. In Dark Knight he managed to throw Joker's balance by impaling him with the blades from his gauntlet. In Dark Knight Rises the gauntlet ripped the tubes in Bane's mask which numbed his pain this more or less incapacitated him because he was in so much pain.
It was a nice way to show that like the cape and the belt, the gauntlet is no mere decoration, but a part of Batman's repertoire due to its functionality.
@@laszlobencebari8677 and the bat ears are basically headphones
well said, sir buttscratchah!
batmans stabby forearm blades are tight
The reason for this is actually kind of funny. Nolan said during the pre-production of Batman Begins that he wanted to get rid of the gauntlets because he didn’t see what purpose they served for the costume and Nolan only wanted things on the costume that were practical for Batman being Batman. David Goyer being a huge fan of Batman was not cool with the idea of them being removed from the costume so he wrote practical purposes for the gauntlets into each movie so that Nolan would have to keep them.
2:43 gotta love how perfectly music matches the plane landing

I love how Gordon and Dent have this lengthy, dramatic discussion while Batman stands there silent, asks *one* question, then disappears without being noticed.
It’s fricking cool
You can tell Gordon is already fed up with the disappearing act to just to go "He does that."
It's my favorite running gag in this entire franchise, no matter the production.

I love the subtle humour in this film, especially the banter between Bruce and Alfred/Lucius.
“What’s wrong with a phone call?”
“Perhaps you should read the instructions first?”
“Now we wouldn’t wanna make things too easy now would we?”
The dialogue comes off so natural and doesn’t seem forced like most superhero movies nowadays. *cough* Marvel Studios *cough*
Marvel is a thousand times better than DC, this series of movies was a one off and would have been mediocre without Heath Ledger
Spoken exactly like someone who has NEVER seen a Marvel movie
You do realise the film is only has good as it is because they were lucky to have some of the best actors in the world, right?
@@thechronicler1453 ironically enough I went on a binge watching all marvel movies leading up to endgame. Don’t get me wrong Marvel makes some great movies but their audience is now directed towards children, which can be definitely make their films have a corny humour about them. Nolan’s films are meant to be taken more serious and orientated for adults. I was mainly joking with my original comment, so don’t take it heart buddy

Unknown Good catch. That went right over my head.
Actually, it's a reference to the Catwoman character in general and not at all directed at the awful 1992 Tim Burton film. If anything, it was foreshadowing Selena Kyle's character to make an appearance in the next film.

His Batman looks good , but I have concerns about how he plays Bruce Wayne 🤔. I guess will have to wait and see.
I think he will be emotionally broken. He’ll miss out on meetings, instead staring at waterfalls or going out on his bike
Lupe Mendoza his version of Batman is year two so Bruce isn’t the full playboy rich type yet

This movie is absolutely based on Long Halloween. That story was all about Harvey Dent's collapse.
One of the best things about this series is how Bruce and Fox talk to each other. That secret code where they talk all about Batman without ever mentioning Batman. The way they tip toe around it playfully.
This scene itself alone gives me a chill through my spine. Absolutely classy.

I love how stoically Batman just watches Dent and Gordon bicker the whole time, only speaking to confirm his next task, then immediately leaving. He's completely focus driven while the other two let their emotions waste time and play the blame game.
Harvey Dent : "I knew the risks when I took this job, lieutenant."
Oh no you didn't, boi....
To be fair he probably thought they would only go after him personally not the woman he loved (its like they said in batman year one animated movie "when a man is a father hes never truly free" that kind of applies it Rachel being the one person he cares about) You always gotta remember you have peoople you care about and your enemies know who they are and theres enough cause they become viable targets

"should do fine against cats!"
the reference to catwoman lmao
It should have been titled;
“depressed billionaire orphan gets new military grade fur suit to kidnap a Chinese accountant”
Since when do depressed people get motivated to launch a campaign against crime and reach the peak of human perfection? Do u even know how depression works?
@@brucew565 Bruce is depressed.
@@urdilatedeyez Yet he doesnt have the symptoms of depression.
@@brucew565 living in a cave alone being antisocial being numb to pain being unsympathetic to others pain his parents death sent him into a depressive state and his way of coping is trying to save gotham
@@urdilatedeyez *"living in a cave alone..being anti social"*
Being alone is not a sign of depression. Everyone has a different temparament and a different personality. He stays alone because he realizes that his job is important and he doesnt want people to get close to him and get hurt. Bruce actually wants to get close to people. In the first movie, he wanted to be with Rachel. He also took a liking towards Talia in TDKR. He retired finally and was committed to Selina at the end of TDKR. He always has Alfred as company. A lot of people give priority to their work over relationships. That doesnt mean they are depressed.
*"Being numb to pain...being unsympathetic"*
What?? How is he unsympathetic? Bruce genuinely wants to improve Gotham. He genuinely cares about Gotham. He belives in giving criminals second chances. That is why he doesnt kill them. He routinely spends money on charity to uplift the poor and the destitute. He routinely puts his life in danger to help people. How does that any of it sound unsympathetic? Did u even understand the movie? While in the pit, Bruce says, "I am afraid of dying while my city burns". Why would he say that if he was unsympathetic?
*"His parents death sent him into a depressive state"*
He felt helpless after his parents' death. However, he channeled his grief and trauma into genuinely improving Gotham City. That is Post-Traumatic Growth. That is the opposite of depression. Even real life psychologists believe that Batman is a poster child for post traumatic growth. When a victim of trauma makes meanining out of their trauma and decides to help people, then they are not depressed. They have effectively come out of depression
Bruce Wayne could have killed himself playing with those toys.
Perhaps he should read the instructions first?
Mr Fox knows he’s Batman, don’t worry
Do you mean the ballerinas?
Bruce wayne: _kills himself with sharp knife projectiles_
Fox: Perhaps you should've read the instructions first.

Cast + Acting + Storyline. Everything with this movie was excellent.
They could have change suits in between the films, but they actually brought back the suit from Batman Begins and then Bruce asked Fox for an upgraded one. That's pretty legit. Something more superhero films should try to do.
Did anyone notice the fact that he discusses the new suit being vulnerable to knives and protecting him from “cats” which foreshadows him being stabbed by Talia and his interaction with Catwomen in DKR? 🤯
1:40 This is why I love theses movies
Now we can actually misspell Patrick Batman without joking.
So much story and dialogue in just a 3 minute segment. I love this movie!
That rotating shot between Bruce and Alferd along with soundtrack...perfect build up... hats off Nolan
whats the name of it
"Now that's more like it Mr. Wayne."
My favourite part of Lucius Fox's character is how unabashedly _into it_ he is. He knew from second one he was arming and armouring the Batman. At this point, he's multiple years into a criminal conspiracy that would send everyone involved to prison. And he is absolutely thrilled to get to play his part. He's Q in a Bond movie and he KNOWS that and he's just loving it.
The chemistry between bale and Freeman is brilliant
Thank goodness for these TDK clips appearing in my feed, going to re-watch the trilogy again this weekend.
Bale made a really good Bruce Wayne, his Batman was good too but he can really do the billionaire playboy perfectly
2:30 she is like "he is going without me as a ballet. I was like the best ballet in cosplay. This is very stupid of him"
Nolan’s addition of a scene depicting the upgrades in the suit is great, most of the time in Batman and other films they just turn up with an upgraded suit and we just accept it
"Hardened kevlar plates of a titanium dipped tri-weave fibers", loved the reference this had in Arkham Knight.
The “more vulnerable to knives and gunfire” line pays off at the end of both movies where he has this suit
