The fight scene in the sewers with Bane is what? (TDKR)

Or the fight scene at the with Batman and Scarecrows goons at the beginning of TDR is what?


As compared to most marvel movies, how are the dark knight's fight scenes?

Jesus. The nonsense people come to talk about online. It is like you prefer fake scifi fights compared to fights grounded in reality.


It is easy to criticise without understanding. First of all, Christopher Nolan is not martial arts kind of director. He is more of a plot driven guy. That being said, the fight scenes he does are expressionist. It is not the fight itself but the emotional symbolism it portrays.


Secondly, you have to understand that the batsuit is heavy and clunky. Batman didn't fight with CGI. So instead of trying to do swift ninja moves with the batsuit, Batman bale fought with a ferocious gorilla style movement that could compensate for the bulky suit.


Going back to the original point of symbolism and expressionist fighting, the fight between batman and bane was to symbolise the brutality of the league of shadows and Bane's prison life.


In summary, the fight scenes in Batman are only terrible if you carry on a literal reading of the fights. One has to take these fight scenes in context.

Or better let's compare it with Marvel. The CGI crap that was black panther or the many CGI crap in captain marvel.

Even endgame avengers had a lot of rubbish CGI fight scenes, especially at the end. The good ones were the fights between captain america and his younger self, black widow vs Hawkeye and Thanos vs Captain America.






First of all calm down your tits....
This isn't only me saying this, millions around the globe agree that Nolan hand to hand combat is mediocre at best....
Only fanboys would get emotional when these things are pointed out....
Have you even watched the video? And seen the comments...

Batman looks clunky all throughout....
You mentioned marvel but take a look at the captain America movies, that's how you create a fight scene.....
That Final fight scene between bane and batman was really terrible, all that budget and they couldn't get a good stuntman..really

Damn I can't believe someone actually calmed down and type such rubbish, what I also can't believe is that I actually read the rubbish from beginning to end.

Imagine saying a superhero fight scene shouldn't involve much CGI. Its no wonder why DC is currently where they are.

Now imagine someone claiming that I stated something that I didn't state at all.

See how you calmed down and claimed nonsense. Where did I say that CGI should not be used in superhero fights? Didnt you read where I praised some fights in endgame?

Nice try. For you to mention Lui Kang as a revenant means that you are stuck on mortal kombat X.

Lui Kang is the champion of mortal kombat and the chosen one.

His younger self from the original timeline defeated his revenant self in mortal kombat 11.

Ogbeni, dont try to wiggle your way out of this.
If you read the full post, you will have seen or the Liu Kang that's co-ruler of NetherRealm. Or did you only complete his playthrough once?
I don't need to wiggle out of anything. Definitely not with a noob like you.

What is this one saying?

Please, what is your point? That I do not know Liu Kang's endings? - which would be ridiculous.

Wtf is your point?

Technology cannot be wiser than you bro.

You can fix this anomaly by deliberately watching your movie three seconds past the point you actually want to stop at, so when you are about to continue later, it will start at where you want.

No! He's not.

Raiden is the deity of thunder and Earthrealm’s sentinel. He is the one that amasses the heroes of Earth to preserve the realm. He is their de-facto bellwether, and is disputably the strongest amongst them. Transitorily, he was an Elder God, but expeditiously return to his obligations as the sentinel of Earth. His potencies conventionally do not match that of the Elder Deities, but he has recently been corrupted, and has dealt with Shinnok (an Elder Deity).

Long story short, when he isn’t abstaining, Raiden is disputably the most powerful in the MK Universe.

A batman movie should have at least semi decent fight choreography....
TDK and TDKR were terrible at that......
I thought Batman begins was quite ok on that front

The quandary could be the cumbersome Batman costume. In his fights, Batman just moves rather inelegantly.

too easy, wonder woman. Wonder woman release date had to be moved from last year to this year. Because of high probability of failure. But black widow can be released any time and still do better than Wonder woman and justice league. angry

We shall see. Just remember that wonderwoman part 1 was a success and that black widow only has a movie because of her tight latex ass.

that's sexist.
The only reason why wonder woman 1 succeeded was because marvel/Disney decided not to give DC any competition at that Period. angry

If you also remember the reason wonder woman 84 was moved to this year. It was all because of great disney. angry

Oh! Look at that. Someone knows how to copy and paste a Google Search result just like my nephew.

When he isn't abstaining! We might as well give the title of strongest to Fire God Liu Kang since we're doing conditional states. How many times has Raiden appeared or spent as an Elder God throughout the entire series? Dude literally has a running gag/meme of how his go to response is "I must consult the Elder Gods".
Note to look down on the lightning god though, this title might have been his as of MKX, but Kronika is currently the most powerful character in the Mortal Kombat universe.
