Is this pretty much the exact opposite of the plane scene? >if he pulls it off he saves his life >he doesn't say bane's name >without the venom he is no longer a big guy >we have survivors

>>141048 Also it takes place next to a pool of water, which is the opposite of fire.

>>141047 What a poorly designed apparatus.

>>141081 Why?

>Nothing! You've got nothing! The opposite of Bane trying to find out what CIA got from Pavel, and not believing when Pavel says "Nothing." >scream my name >never The exact opposite of CIA asking Bane who his name is, and Bane saying it doesn't matter who he is. >If I don't pull that off, you will die. >It is extremely painful. >You're too big a guy. >For me. Pretty much Bizarro Plane Scene.

>>141047 >>141257 >I was watching in anticipation for batman to say Bane?! >anti-climatic >think Bane was going to say "no this can't be happening, I'm in charge here" >but he doesn't This clearly takes place in a parallel universe where everything is the opposite.

>>141047 Some manner of nega-Bane or possibly a copycat who fought Bateman in the cartoon spin-off. Note how he's not a natural big guy, his mask exposes the nose and mouth but conceals the eyes in the exact opposite of Bane's mask and that Bateman refuses to call him Bane and the man futilely claims he is while he withers away.

>>141266 DCAU confirmed for the Antimatter universe counterpart of the Plane Scene.

>>141245 The wrist device and tubing are in very vulnerable places in the cartoon, with such a large target and such a delicate device it's what lead to cartoon Bane's downfall. In addition, his masks tinted lenses also hinders his eyesight and he falls prey to theatrics. In the Nolanverse it's the contrary. In the post-credits sequences it's observed that Bane's mask and tubing is all situated on his mask and along his spine and, while vulnerable, is well out of the way. Nolanverse Bane also has nothing to hinder his eyesight, with his childhood of being born and molded by darkness had allowed Bane cat-like night vision as well as the ability to see past theatricality and deception.

Just watched this episode. It begins with Bane getting off of a plane. Reverse Plane Scene confirmed.

>>141047 That's strange. For the first few seconds, we find out that his name is Never, but in the end, he exclaims "I am Bane". What's going on?

>>141291 Perhaps Never is undergoing some kind of psychotic break where he believes himself to be Bane and Bateman is trying to snap him out of it.

>>141291 >>141299 What I find odd is that Never specifically requests Bateman scream his name, yet Bateman only whispers it. What's up with that?

>>141288 (heiling those big dubs) Not only that, but he gets on a car after getting off the plane.

>>141788 Heiled.

https://invidio.us/watch?v=_BLe5aXwBaY What did they mean by this?

>>144885 He's an old guy.

>>141047 There's such a thing as being too big of a guy. A lesson perhaps?

>>144885 perhaps it wouldn't have been so painful to take the mask off after all

>>144943 for you

>>144958 So we know that taking it off in the moment is "extremely painful." Depending on your interpretation, this can mean it will be extremely painful for the wearer of the mask (Bane), or that it would be painful for the other person to remove the mask from him (CIA). But what about just leaving the mask on indefinitely? There's a post-credits segment in The Plane Scene where Patrick Bateman has a heart to heart conversation with The Hothead and tells him that you wear a mask to protect the people important to you. So if taking the mask off can be "extremely painful" for those around you, then keeping the mask on would spare them from the pain. But since removing the mask can also be extremely painful for the wearer, we can only assume that the pain involved will continue to accumulate for as long as the mask is worn. Bane has accumulated lots of pain behind his mask, and he knows removing it would harm those he cares for, so he keeps it on and ends up in the state we see him in in Batman Beyond.

>>145081 >you wear a mask to protect the people important to you. >Bane tries to warn CIA that pulling the mask off would be extremely painful for CIA It all checks out. Bane was only trying to protect CIA the entire time. CIA is very important to him. It was all for him.

>Becomes too big of a guy >Things become extremely painful >furfag removes the mask >bane becomes a much smaller guy For us.
