    Jesus. Dick Grayson is really hurting the whole Secret Identity thing. Lol

    • @GlitchanBlack
      @GlitchanBlack 3 роки тому +177

      Tim Drake and Ra’s Al Ghul started it, but in the show, Tim Drake found it out by watching Batman, Robin, and Batgirl’s last battle together against The Joker before Dick Grayson became Nightwing. Later on, he met Batman when his father was killed by Two-Face, and then in the Batcave, Tim met Bruce Wayne, and the two ends met.

    Bane is actually a genius and a master-class fighter. Him figuring out Batman's identity just by analyzing Bruce Wayne's movement patterns is actually pretty spot on, if you ask me. Only a person with such an eye for things like that could catch the similarities.

    • @Ptera_xd

      It makes sense but doesn’t give Bruce enough credit, he’s definitely aware enough to not move the same way. If there were a situation that forced him to act and go off instinct I’d be more likely to buy it.

    Let's not forget Bane is intelligent.
    Bane figuring who batman is by what he said, how he said it, and the way he moves isn't that farfetched.

    I think bane’s deduction is the most realistic. I was once recognized in a dark theater by one of my friends from a few year ago. When didn’t come there together nor knew the other would be there. She couldn’t see what I was wearing or my face, however she called out to me from across the theater. When I came over, I asked how she knew it was me, and she said because she could tell by my walk. This isn’t the only time this has happened to me, just the first time in the almost complete dark

      So the DC universe is pretty loose in what is fact and not so it's mostly up to opinion as to what's believed. I like to go with The Killing Joke origin for Joker. In which he is a very brilliant chemist to work at Ace chemicals, had a great job and only quit for happiness. It's also just obvious with shit like his Joker gas. So that's points. His understanding of psychology is astounding with how he analyzes Batman, people like Riddler, and the entirety of Gotham. He is intelligent enough to see behind every curtain. In multiple comics Joker has known Batmans identity for a very long time and chooses not to acknowledge it. He has found ways into the Batcave. He has made elaborate plans and weapons. He has a very complex view of the workings of the universe. In my mind I like to think of him as the smartest. Lex Luther may have a very great understanding of mind, money, machines, chemicals, space, etc. But Joker has a deeper spark to his thinking, and delicate plan to everything and he has made it to no matter what he wins. So I put him above all. Then Batman, Lex, Bane, Tim, Dick, Damien, Strange, Riddler, etc, etc. Honestly I wish I could rant all day about a detailed analysis of The Joker. His character is so completely complex. To me what makes him the most intelligent is that he is the most aware. He knows that he is crazy and wrong and that all of this is pointless, just gears and chemicals. Nothing means anything. Even Lex is blind to his complete lunacy. Batman is the only one who may have the same awareness that nothing he's doing is making a change. It's making it worse. He's crazy. And vengeance is for nothing. All just my wierd ass ner opinions. I rank the smartest as the most aware and deep thinking. Just cause you know rocket science doesn't mean you you have a deeper understanding of reality

    Actually Bane figuring out Batman was Bruce Wayne by the way he moves is more realistic than you believe. I personally have identified a masked person who broke into a store I worked at by the way he moved on video surveillance. I told the detective working the case what I thought, but he discarded my response initially. After the 2nd break in he decided to look into the person to discover he had discarded boxes of the stolen electronics in front of his house and found more evidence in his car. When the detective came by to tell us he arrested him, I laughed and told him he was lucky that the guy was a moron for keeping evidence.
    Basically Bane is a well experienced fighter and would be likely to notice a person's movement patterns. Especially with someone like Batman with whom he has had many confrontations with.

I tried to scare my best friend once growing up so I put a mask on. When I jumped out to scare him he knew immediately it was me despite the mask. So knowing a persons height, size, and weight, and mannerisms can very well lead to identifying them. Also I can tell who a girl is that I've met before just by looking at their butt.

    -depending on whether or not you threw Catwoman under the bus, he’ll regard betraying her as keeping his cover (Bruce was infiltrating a group of super villains by claiming that he was following in his criminal father’s footsteps) and sacrificing himself as, well, something Batman would do.
    - Finally, the most obvious of them all: Bruce mysteriously vanished when the Bat-signal showed up
    Unlike most versions, Joker, who’s not a villain yet, is trying to be Bruce’s friend and an apprentice to Batman, so his knowledge of Batman’s secret identity is a lot more meaningful here.

      Still an amazing game of course, Two-Face was also pretty great in it (as was everyone else, really).

      ​@@QuickSilverKitsune I chose the villain path. I thought he was funny & even adorable in his innocent ways just like everybody else. But I know that he's like 9th or 10th on the list of Bruce's priorities. Bruce protects a city. Fights for his life. One of his best friends & Father figures died. His Daughter is an emotional wreck & is poking around & ends up killing. Alfred's health is deteriorating. Gordon & Avesta's jobs are in danger. His identity is on the line & not to mention the relationship with Selina. Fact is he kinda just crazied his way into Bruce's life. So as I played I kept my sense of duty. I had a mission & it was to go undercover. Be convincing & try not to lie. I never chose anything that called John a friend or even implied it which made for a fun time getting in his head during his dinner & card game cuz I technically never did those things to a "Friend", so I never put my finger down.

      @@QuickSilverKitsune When I said "Try not to lie" I was talking about John but if you wanna extend it to the entire Pact, I can do that too or at least keep it to a minimal. There's a difference between deceit & withholding information & a flat out lie & there are options that you can pick to set it up that way. Playing & thinking as Bruce. I don't wanna push him down any path. I don't want villain Joker to kill half the city, cripple Gordon & act like an obsessed ex GF. Nothing will ever work out this easy in the world of Batman, but I just want him to get help & not have the fate of another grown man resting solely on my shoulders. You can call me out for what you see as contradictory thinking or bogus justification, but I can do the same for you. You can't tell me Gordon & Avesta's problems are not Bruce's problems or that they aren't needed. You can't call Alfred's health issues & legitimate points & concerns for his son's safety BS but turn around & coddle, mentor & take responsibility for a crazy person who you knew for less than an hour. By your own admission is too warped to live the life you live. Blackmailed his way into your life & is more of a burden than any of your allies & give me a BS symbolic connection cuz you really like John. It's easy to come across that way no matter what side you're on because it's just a matter of choosing who your loved ones are. Alfred is your Father. You're mourning someone who was like your Uncle. Tiffany & the rest of the Fox family is like your family too & you hold a way bigger responsibility to them than you do to Joker. Gordon is a trusted friend & partner who would fight as hard for you as you do for him so yeah I want him. Avesta while she did many of the same things that John did in terms of helping, she at least isn't someone who belongs in an asylum & won't unleash holy hell on the city if you part ways so yeah she's the new COO of my company. And Selina, she wasn't the target, didn't give a me a death puzzle, didn't kill in the hopes to steal a dangerous serum, so yeah I can be duty oriented, be with her, erase her record/ and or have her released because she is a loved one who helped me. Am I choosing between Joker & Catwoman in what criminal I want in my life? Is this even a contest? Both are flawed, both help, both need my influence. Difference between them is that the emotional connection is mutual with Catwoman & she's independent.And guess what? If all else fails, she's a beautiful woman, has great genetics, a pussy, can be Bruce's wife & give him a family. If there was ever a time to be "Thirsty" for somebody this would be it. Or am I supposed to be "Thirsty" for Joker?

    Heck, why does everyone forget about Coleman Reese (appearing in "The Dark Knight")? Reese was an employee of Wayne Enterprises who figured out the Batman's identity and tried to profit off it. Identifying numerous irregularities within Wayne Enterprises financials, Reese's private investigations led to him discovering details regarding the Batman's equipment suppliers. Putting it all together, Reese deduced that Bruce Wayne had to be the Batman. Reese met with Lucius Fox, Wayne Enterprises CEO, to tell Fox that he knew the identity of the Batman, had proof, and offered to keep silent for $10 million a year. Fox reminded Reese of Wayne's immense wealth and connections with the veiled threat that, if need be, Reese could be "disappeared" very quickly.

    There’s another character who figured out Batman’s identity: an artificial intelligence named D.A.V.E from The Batman.
    He used a process of elimination by examining public records of Gotham City.
    First, he took the male population and struck out any male who wasn’t in Batman’s rough age group.
    Then, he looked at medical records to determine who of those remaining men had the build and athletic skills that match Batman.
    Next, he looked at tax records to find any of those men who had the wealth and resources to create Batman’s gear.
    Finally, D.A.V.E viewed news archives to determine a motive for any of those men to become Batman. That motive is the night that Bruce’s parents have died at the hands of that criminal.
    D.A.V.E only showed in one episode, so I can see why you didn’t include him on this list.
