The 2 mins 30 is accurate. It actually took 2mins 30 for the bombs to go off. Wow. Chris Nolan rlly does have a fixation with time.
screen time yes....real life no....
@@himanshuarya4297 you can't measure real time in a movie as a viewer
Time is very fluid, dependent on the Mind. Nolan proves it in his films

Just noticed the same thing :)))
This scene represents Batman at his best. He pulls off an impossible task perfectly with everything at his disposal - technology, hand to hand training, and sheer will/discipline.
Except for the hand to hand combat Nolan universe had a worst fighting scene, all villains are down in one kick lol
@@ArjunLoveableChannel yea I agree but it mostly had to do with the camera work also imo. You don’t get to really see and absorb all of what’s happening on screen cuz instead they cut to multiple angles in the middle of a fight. Moments like this scene, where he fought 4 of Ra’s top henchmen in Begins, and the club fight are really the only standalone fight scenes I remember really liking
Hey guys, I just uploaded a video on my channel on the real meaning behind the Dark Knight. It’s an incredible video that I spent a lot of time making and I would appreciate it if you guys checked it out! It really would mean a lot to me and I’m sure everyone would enjoy it! Thank you so much in advance! I hope everyone stays safe and stays well! Link: kzhead.info/sun/qLalaKqNe4R4hw/bejne.html
Right with precision & straight accuracy
Christian Bale reallly did this no cgi or stunt doubles
This has to be utterly horrifying not just for Lau, but everyone involved. To think Batman, a local hero, would show up in your building in the dead of night, and just beat the shit out of everyone and kidnap the CEO.
Also: No one in Hong Kong EXCEPT Lau knew that Batman even existed. Imagine how scared they were when this is the ONLY encounter with the Bat they’ll ever have.

I love how from beginning to end, in all three movies, Lucius never once refers to Bruce as Batman when they speak to one another. Compartmentalization with well-defined boundaries was how he balanced his dedication and commitment within Bruce's two worlds.
love your use of language here.
He calls him Mr. Wayne in the Arkham games too.
love how when Bruce says "Sonar like a..." and Lucius cuts him off and says submarine. He's dedicated to that compartmentalization
In the Nolan trilogy they make it clear that Batman is just a symbol, Bruce doesn't identify himself as Batman but rather he uses that persona to be incorruptible and invincible at the eyes of his enemies. He says that many times and also that he didn't want to be Batman forever since he wanted to have a life outside the cave with Rachel first and then is able to do that with Selina. Also if you notice unlike in many other superhero movies in the end credits there's no "Bruce Wayne/Batman" (no real identity slash secret identity) just "Bruce Wayne" when he's credited.
I just googled meaning of Compartmentalization.
The balls it took for Batman to pull that building dive off without critical injuries or death is mesmerizing.
His pointy ears probably helped with going through the glass😂
Also he wears body armor and súper strong
Well designed suit

The one question that I’m asking is he hung from the plane for 10-14 hours?!
@@jasonlam321 Nah, they pull the passengers in after they clear away from any obstructions. Wouldn't make sense to land as someone is dangling from the back of the plane.
It did take a little longer tho cause he had a ton of money
I've always loved how calculated batman is in these movies. He knows exactly what he's gotta do and how much time he has to do it and he gets it done.
That show how much is strategic
2:06 the way they filmed batman gliding is masterpiece!😊
If I remember correctly, for the gliding they really did have a guy being swung around on a helicopter or something. I dunno how they did the dive into the window and all, but they really did go GoldenEye Dam-style balls out filming crazy shit like this. The Dark Knight was on another level of filmmaking. Between that and the Gotham General explosion being a 100% real set in Chicago that onlookers watched in awe, you can't really pick a single best scene.
Probably the only live action Batman that ACTUALLY uses his gadgets from the Utility Belt
Bale and in a handful of instances Affleck. Keaton, Kilmer, and Clooney? Not so much
@@jasonfrye2289 By that he means all his gadgets can be seen realistically stored in his utility built where he detaches and reaattach them back to his belt. Unlike other live Batman iterations.

People don’t talk about how good of a role Morgan freeman played as Lucius fox, very underrated part of the entire trilogy..
Morgan freeman is playing as Morgan Freeman..🤣
Bro, I always felt the same. But then again, I got the memo.
@@abdulfatahpandita1565 I said the same thing. He's just Fox irl.
I know this is kind of random but I feel like Christian bales Batman would be a great character in the movie saving Private Ryan. The mentality that his Batman has when getting into such dangerous situations. I feel he would do great in that film. He reminds me of Jackson. I know Batman doesn’t say quotes from the bible when fighting and killing his enemies or he doesn’t a kiss a Christian cross necklace right before he fights but the strong bravery his Batman has and private Jackson has I think is very similar.
Perfect Role for him he crushed it. All 3 movies are amazing.
I love Gordons little smirk in the end like he’s bragging to the cops about „yeah my buddy Batman did this“
I could never put it into words until now… yeah my buddy Batman did this

That's y 3 was a bit depressing, he didn't use anything
@@ant1440 How? He used EMP gun and stuff on his Bat.
amazingly stupid and unrealistic
Lau standing up, pretending to crack his neck, and cocking his gun at 1:53 is so unintentionally funny. Batman about to bust through a window in this guy’s high rise and Lau acting like he will have to get his hands dirty 😂
It's hilarious how he acts like he's about to be so hard but then he starts screaming for his life when he and his whole security team get bodied by Batman.
To be fair, he did have to get his hands dirty. With all the glass he has to deal with. On his own body.
He wanted to look tough with his friends
Lau thinks he's the 💩, gets dragged by his foot about to take a real one 💩😆
I can’t get over how perfect this movie is. It’s literally flawless.
Beautiful isn't it?
Amazing movie but I never figured out why Batman couldn’t blame everything on the joker at the end. The whole take all the blame die for everyone’s sins ending seemed a bit contrived.
@@mikecantreed he was blamed for killing Harvey Dent, a public servant. Not everything the Joker did.
@@thadofalltrades Ok yea ur right but why not put Harvey’s death on the joker?
@@mikecantreed that would be untrue
batman through all of this: "man, this is SO illegal"
What he does in Gotham is illegal. Not much of a difference really.
@@xMACHOxMANx Yea, but this is way worse. In real life this would cause enormous tension between USA and China. Especially since Batman unofficially works with local USA law enforcement.
Dean I lol yeah I got you
@@DeansLists Eh, I don't think so. The US had no official involvement with Batman's kidnapping of Lau, so there wouldn't be any evidence to prove the US government sanctioned Batman's activities there. What's more, China likely knew Lau was committing crimes overseas and they were protecting him anyway, so if they complained about Batman, the US could easily turn that right back around on them.
@@Tantalus010 Valid points from both sides, but knowing Winnie the Pooh, he would still get very angry at an American kidnapping a public figure in the country without his permission

Pure elegance. On of the most jaw dropping scenes I've ever seen. Remember watching it in the theatres as a kid and The Dark Knight remains my no 1 film of all time.
I always love how bruce is about to say "like a bat" but gets cut off by Lucius saying "submarine".
*Battinson enters the chat*
OMG it always went over my head 😳
Lucius actually did correct him. A bat uses its ears, and can discern obstacles. Active sonar on a submarine goes through a computer and can give a 3D representation on a screen, turning the audio into a visual picture.
Maybe Bruce is actually trying to get Lucius Fox to say "bat" as a confirmation that he is so onboard the whole Batman thing But Lucius always maintains a professional/technical attitude as well as a careful plausible deniability Both characters are portrayed very well by Nolan
If I ever got that, I completely forgot it 🤣
I love how Christopher Nolan uses real life gadgets and equipments in Batman Trilogy.
The wire grapple system batman uses and the electrostatic glide cape are still sadly science fiction but feasible in the future, and the trilogy certainly had more real gadgets in it than any other to date and I too love them for this reason. The fighting is also far more real, people get tired and don't move around like a hamster on drugs but like proper cage fight / brawl style, i.e. as humans do. The trilogy is a masterpiece and I doubt I will see as good a batman film again in my lifetime.
In the arkham games he had much more gadgets
Payel Ghosh Damn right!
And he is a little obsessed with shots in airplanes you can see it here and in dark night rises, Dunkirk.
ArmyOfAll the cape and grapple system were prototyped in Russia in the 80s but sadly never made it into production
I love gordons face at 4:04 when he receives his package lmao
The trilogy as a whole has aged incredibly well. The production is outstanding.
Lack of CGI means that it'll never really age

The fight scenes of the Nolan films might’ve not been flashy. The action scenes itself though like this and when Batman saves the swat members and hostages is just genius.
I love the action in this Trilogy, fits Nolan’s vision perfectly in my opinion
@@user-yp6dy4df8w Yeah it just flows really well with the camera work. It may objectively not have the greatest fights ever, but they sure do look appealing to the eye with the crazy cameras Nolan uses. What a fucking great movie, my favorite one ever.

Never start with the head.
This scene is so good at showing Batman’s prep time skills and abilities to plan and execute an action.
I could watch Bale/Nolan's Batman standing on rooftops, jumping off, gliding around etc. all damn day lol. Just majestic.
The one thing I absolutely love about this scene is that Batman was all business once he is inside Lau's building and didn't talk at all - no cheesy lines, one liners or even threatening Lau or his henchmen or the cops. It shows how many times Batman would have rehearsed this plan in his head and how he stayed pretty much in total control. Nolan is really a genius.
That’s not genius work, just common sense for Bruce. Calling Nolan a genius for having Bruce be serious in another country is a FUCKING stretch.
If Nolan is a genius then why did Tenet and Interstellar absolutely suck?

@@Zeegoku1007 More than that, the Joker knew what Batman was capable of achieving.... but in a way yes, you're right
"I know the squealers when I see them"
Ryan Darko See if a cop kidnapped Lau from Hong Kong to be used as evidence in court, Lau couldn't be used because he was obtained illegally, which is in violation of the 'Doctrine of the poisonous fruit,' but as you said, "Batman has no jurisdiction." He is not a cop, so Doctrine of the poisonous fruit doesn't apply, making Lau kidnapping safe for the cops to use.
“Sonar…just like a uhhh” A BAT DUDE, A BAT
I remember seeing this in the theater. My jaw had dropped off and heart in my mouth. You get these feeling very few times in your life
The “Skyhook” technique used in this scene was actually a real thing. Officially called the Fulton air retrieval system, it was developed and used by the CIA for over 30 years as an extraction technique for operatives. It was surprisingly successful, with only one recorded fatal accident ever occurring with the technique. Really cool how they used it here, since it’s definitely something that Batman would do.
Metal gear did it first
@@HelghastStalker no but they did the fulton air retrieval

Lucious was smart enough to know it wasn't a good idea to say Bat. Never knew who could be listening over there.
One thing I absolutely love about Nolan is his real time events. Most movies show a timer of any sort and never follow them in real time. Batman times them for 2 mins 30 secs and this whole scene ends with explosions at the same time 2 mins 30 seconds.

Different people develop different ways to cope with their stress and anxiety. The actor did well to exhibit that imo
Everyone thinks they're badass until the real badass shows up
Yeah I thought Batman may actually get some sort of challenge from those guys with some kung fu or something. Not even Bane's guys laid a hand on him when he was almost washed up in Rises. Only Bane. Well I guess the Joker did too but that was after dogs attacked him and his vision was messed up

The absolute adrenaline you'd get from diving off a building nose down, flapping your wings, breaking into a building, stealing a man, and then leaving via explosion and plane take off. Being Batman would be sick.

It comes with dead parents and traumatizing the shit out of your body in training, but the end result is indeed sick.

@@blackmantis3130 The gun disarming part. The rest are just brutal punches.
This Batman actually plans and attacks rather than punching without knowing anything.
@@sumitadas4582 Damn right.
@@sumitadas4582 but he fights like idiot though
"Where are the cops" "What the hell am I paying them for?" Dude an entire SWAT team was mobilized and up to your floor in like 1 minute.
1 minute too late
Billy Donovan The original Chinese line emphasized “Why aren’t they here already?!” after the “We’d paid them” part. “我们已经付给他们钱，他们怎么还不来？！”
the dialog in the trilogy is shit except for the first 1.5 movies
Right!
Ty Nao are you high? This triology is known for its dialogues
This is one of the Rare moment where Batman act like Mercenaries, no talk, no wages & no postponement, but That's what actually makes him scary, just doing his task & leave the crime scene like it's nothing, a Pure Perfection of 'Take what you can and Give Nothing Back' in any Action movies.
Nolan is the master of spectacular skyscraper shots.
3:40 Everytime this track starts kicking in, it always give me chills in my vein
Hans Zimmer ♥️
Tell me about it. And I love how it winds up from about 3:26... You can almost feel that something awesome is about to happen.
Same.
Same
Exactly!
I like how when Bruce puts on the costume, he becomes a completely different person, and no just some guy in a costume, these movies Nailed it!
bale himself said he wanted to be another creature in batsuit
he becomes a stumbling, shaky cam, CGI imbecile with a speech impediment
@@tynao2029 oh you again, yeesh, why are you here if you hate this trilogy that much?
@@le-blanc1440 just a troll like the others
Ty Nao cgi where exactly?
Watching this scene on a 12 story tall imax screen was one of the most memorable movie watching experiences I've ever had. No other movie has ever triggered a physical sense of being there like this scene
One of the most epic parts of Nolan's Batman
The sound when he glides is such a nice detail
True, but still too noisy - he needs to tighten up his trailing edges a bit.
Well the fluttering of his Cape makes those sounds and it's such an important detail instead of just using music background when in the air like some movies do. It was impressive.
Yes it sounds like the fluttering of actual bat wings!
Mr Gone too noisy for what?
@@christophercrawford2736 i think he means the character bruce could quiet down the flapping sound, idk though
Bruce: Sonar, just like a- Lucius: like a submarine This scene always made me laugh
I felt like an idiot when I originally saw this. I wanted to scream BAT... Thanks Lucius...
Lmao I was thinking BAT
I was thinking Dolphin lol
@@captaindeo Lmao
Oh Lucius, I'm a bat you silly fox!
I would pay full price to watch this in imax again 14 years later
There's something so satisfying about watching Batman in his preparation phase. From putting on the cowl to using his equipment on top of a huge building, everything here is awesome. When he takes a leap of faith from assassin's creed, it's the cherry on top.
Was that written like Bruce was going to say "Just like a bat?"
Love that detail every time I watch the movie
Yes, at least that's what was written in the script that you can read online.
Lucius Fox wanted to stop him from stating the obvious lol
Yes haha, he wanted to say bat.
Stellar Remnant yes haha, like “holy shit Mr Wayne don’t say that in public, submarine Mr Wayne, submarine”
Batman looks way more terrifying without his cape. But looks so badass while gliding with it too
This is one of my favorite scenes it shows how terrifying batman is when he doesn’t talk while fighting! Bale is the best live action 💪
That punch at 2:57 gets me every time, swats him away like a fly lmao
The punch sound effect also funny
He was like "move bitch, get out the way"
@@zmohammedac hahahahaha you just made my day man haha 😂 😂😂
I want to say that guard wasn't supposed to fall prematurely without being hit that last time with the gun that scene alone blows my mind like who fucked up here 🤔
"Sonar, just like a, uh..." "Submarine, mr. Wayne. Submarine." I never realized that line was Freeman's character subtly implying he still didn't want to have anything to do with Batman officially.
Omg, I didn't even think about that lol.
These batman movies will always be my favorites. Christian Bale was the best Batman up to date and it's not even close.
This scene is way ahead of future even in 2022
2:30 Can we all appreciate how Batman disappeared in a puff of smoke, paying homage to his ninja roots.
Cool....thnx for telling 🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇long live the bat
Ra's Al Ghul 🙏🏼🙏🏼
I don't think that's paying homage... That's like saying Logan Webb pays homage to his pitching coach every time he throws a slider... Or I pay homage to my parents every time I take a bite of food (since they taught me how to eat)... For that matter every time I take a step I'm paying homage to my folks for teaching me how to walk... C'mon dude...
Paying homage to Batman?? This is nothing new
so bad that this pretty move by Batman didn't work against Bane.
I still remember the news report about Batman going to film in HK. Nostalgia.
Sam Li Didn’t the locals give the crew a hard time? I read that the cinematographer was frustrated with a particular shot.
@@rubberducky4074 Don't know much about that. The only thing is the big sign on the news reports when I was still a kid.
Wew
Rubber Ducky are you perhaps confusing it with Transformers Age of Extinction? I remember watching this on the news as well and I don’t recall any unpleasantness
Nice
