Alfred: [to Bane] Remember when you left the pit? Before all this, before the League of Shadows? You were gone seven years. Seven years I waited, hoping that you wouldn't come back. Every year, I took a holiday. I went to Florence, there's this cafe, on the banks of the Arno. Every fine evening, I'd sit there and order a Fernet Branca. I had this fantasy, that I would look across the tables and I'd see you there, with a wife feeding you with a straw. You wouldn't say anything to me, nor me to you. But we'd both know that you'd made it, that you were happy. I never wanted you to come to Gotham. I always knew there was nothing here for you, except pain and tragedy. And I wanted something more for you than that. I still do.

This. Most villains are just set up and fall. Ra's has practically one line to explain his reasoning:

A movie can be:
Enjoyable/Not Enjoyable
Good/Bad
Good & bad are about whether critically a movie is decent (cinematography/music/everything etc). A movie can be enjoyable and bad or enjoyable and good.
Nothing wrong with discussing a film.

people actually like the 2003 Hulk?!?

Retarded ideals that don't work in this day and age. At least Bane and Talia's LoS prepared to blow up everything with a nuke.

The bomb makes no sense.
I saw a comrade post this for what he would have wanted if the Joker had been in the movie (and Heath was alive):
>Joker escapes from Arkham. He is pleased that people are turning on eachother like what he wanted in TDK.
>Bane is a revolutionary making Gotham into an example - a new LoS tactic like how Ras tried using economics to destroy Gotham.
>The bomb was a threat and he didn't intend to use it.
>The Joker steals the bomb to get a confrontation with Batman. He then intends to set it off.
I mean why not just set the bomb off? Why leave it running on a timer?
>>
>>
>>39549472
Don't say such horrible things out loud, someone somewhere might hear and think it is a good idea.
>>
>>39549514
Because Gordon jammed the EMP device in the bomb, preventing remote detonation.
>>
>>39549514
They used the bomb as psychological warfare, to turn the people against each other and hold the army back. Also why the fuck not?

Bane and Talia had twins. And they have wacky adventures.

What I meant is why not just set it off when they got it

I suppose so but leaving it running and degrading and wanting to blow up Gotham instead of just leaving it as a threat was weird.

So no one told you Gotham was going to be this way.
Your job's a joke, your spine is broke, your knee cartilage DOA.
It's like your city is always stuck under martial law,
When you can't go to work without a crazy terrorist ruining your front lawn.
But, I'll be there to break you, when the fire starts to rise.
I'll be there to break you, like has been taught by good ol' R'as.
I'll be there to break you, you won't be able to break me, though"

Bane, from the sidelines.

Talia takes another swing at Nyssa.

Bane's eyes widen.

Nyssa points to Jim. "For that piece of moustache and muscles over there". Gordon is flustered. "Me?". "Oh, that's it!", says Ann, as she jumps into the fight. Gordon moves the newspaper to his crotch area.
Crane and Ubu show up, barely covered from a session of lovemaking. Crane yells "Uh, Catfight!" before jumping into the bandwagon in his trousers, while Ubu screams "NO, CROWY, NO!"

>With Osito having run away, Bane enlists Jim Gordon and Batman to help track him down. Little does he know that Osito has fallen in with gang members. But when Osito rubs them the wrong way, he's left into a debt that can be repaid with one job: he must break into his own house and steal the rest of the venom. Osito just wants things to go back to normal - but how can he escape?

Judges are Scarecrow, the Asian accountant guy, and Talia.

>Gordon: Sharpshooting. Shoots at targets with impressive accuracy.
>Osito and Olivia: Osito recites a really cute and stupid kid poem while Olivia dances accordingly. Talia goes wild. Crane loves it. Accountant calls it "strange".
Bane and Ra's are the finalists. The final round is a sing-off, and both are not prepared to lose. They start a duet, but keep trying to upstage each other. Crane decides that the situation can only be resolved by 90's style rap battle. Accountant beatboxes.

Jim forbids her from seeing him, causing Babs to lash out "Not like you're my REAL dad, anyway!"
Cue an episode or two where Babs realizes that circus life is HARD and also one huge family, blood related or not. She eventually returns home and accepts Jim as her "real" dad, even if he isn't her genetic father.

"The Bane Wants What the Bane Wants".
Bane realizes Talia is acting strange around him, and finds out he forgot her birthday. He enlists the help of Gordon, Crane and even Batman to make a surprise party at the last second, only to find out that Talia was distant because she forgot his birthday and had enlisted Ann, Selina and Nyssa to plan a surprise party as well.
In the end, it turns out it's not the birthday of neither of them, only the Calendar Man's latest plot to get revenge on Bane.
The end reveals Grandpa R'as employed Calendar Man to make Bane appear like a bad husband, but Calendar Man put it all to waste by targeting Talia as well. In order to punish Calendar Man for making his daughter feel sad, R'as messes up Calendar Man's house so nothing is on schedule.

I really like the Jim Gordon thinks League of Shadows is like Little League.
Grandpa Ra's is shocked when Jim turns up with his two kids dressed for Baseball (all the other kids/people coming in ninja outfits).
He has to keep up a facade and make an actual little league team so Gordon doesn't become suspicious but when he reliases that brute strength and batting isn't his thing he grudgingly enlists Bane in helping to coach the team.. with hilarious results.
>>
>>
>>39557294
No. Bane and Talia are happily married and have 2 kids, they have enough problems. Affair doesn't fit. Maybe Ubu cheats on Scarecrow That is something I would watch.
>>
>>39557349
or Scarecrow cheats on Ubu
>>
>>
>>39557349
I had the same idea... but who is the tough brute to try and take Ubu from Crane? Bane talks Crane into beating up this guy who turns out to be the timid Arnold Wesker (who works as a Ventriloquist).
Funny scene where Bane and Crane have tracked this guy down to this show club and Bane is talking Crane up, telling him he needs to break this guy. The door opens and Crane punches him.. and then realises how weak this guy is and that Ubu isn't worth it..
>>
>>39557399
The ever flamboyant Killer Moth.
>>
>>39557399
No idea. It should make sense in the story. Scarecrow pushes Ubu away in his relationship, or his parents don't approve of Ubu and gets sad.
>>
>>39557349
It should be Gordon, with Sarah Essen, if anything.
>>
>>39557271
Oh god and the final game is the playoffs that they need to win. Grandpa Ras and Bane end up sorta coming to a tiny understanding and helping the team to victory.
>>
>>39557479
Or or, Ra's makes up a plan that he looks terrible in front of the kids. So when Talia sees she might think he's a terrible father. But fails obviously.
>>
>>39557506
But they need one tiny uplifting moment of sorta working together! Then right at the end of the episode Ras can do something to undo it.
>>
>>39557543
Either way. I love Grandpa Ra's and his schemes to break up Talia and Bane. But their marriage is UNBREAKABLE. There you go the shows tagline.
>>
Awkwardness ensues as Catwoman decides to date R'as Al Ghul after breaking up with Batman.
In the end, it is yet another masterplan of R'as to force Batman and Talia to interact more so Talia can leave Bane for Batman. It backfires as Talia realizes how happy she is her relationship with Bane is strong, while Catwoman eventually decides to go back to Batman because R'as keep talking about how he is a badass man.

End of the episode.
R'as is at Harvey Dent's bar, the Drunk Half. He's downing shots and telling Dent what happened.
"You know, maybe I just need to stop trying to live through my life and just get going with mine, you know? I mean, I don't have sex in, like, 30 years, you know? A guy needs what a guy needs, you know? I mean, I'd take anything mindly attractive right now..."
Crane shows up, wraps his arm around R'as.
"I'm here for you, buddy."
Crane unbuttons one button of his hawaiian shirt. R'as just looks pissed and downs another shot.
>>
>>39557506

Who? Just make an episode where a new neighbor comes to live in Bane's street. But they immediately get into a fight. And Calendar Man gets jealous because he's Bane's rival, so they team up to get rid of this new guy. You fill in the rest.

>>39558116
A kid called Damian claims to be Talia's child by another man. The whole thing feels a bit odd.. could Ras be involved?

A new neighbor moves in, a women called Pamela Lillian Isley moves in. She strikes up a friendship with Talia. Her environmental views and radical feminist ideas cause problems for Bane.

He's Ubu.
There's something hilarious about the Scarecrow burlap mask that I just can't comprehend.

Pamela's friend Harleen (a doctor) frequently shows up after a blowout with her boyfriend.
Pamela says she sleeps in the guest room/on the couch, then Talia mentions "But, you don't have a guest room/own a couch."
Turns out Pamela sleeps in the flower "bed", so the master bedroom is actually reserved for Harleen.
While Harleen is in town, she takes turns with Crane playing mind-games on everyone in the neighborhood.

Bruce: Can it wait until after the meeting? My head is killing me.

I kinda wanna see Talia and Bane going on a double date with Killer Croc and his wife? Who is his wife? Or with Scarecrow and Ubu. Sounds like a fun episode. Going to a karaoke bar, Bane loses because the machine doesn't pick up his voice. Another bar where Talia and Bane aren't welcome anymore.

Joker is actually in the Two-Face spinoff, but sure he can join with Harley. For a two parter or something. Don't have an idea for them though.

Joker and Harley are Banes kooky neighbors.

In the fear gas episode we can have Bane wake up surrounded by skeleton models (the toy ones). All have their spines broken.
Talia wakes him up with an *ahem*.

Crane wakes up tied to a post in the middle of a field.
