Good morning, apropos of nothing do you know what was a scene in a super hero movie that I really liked
Gabiluzbad
The Ferry Scene in Nolan's The Dark Knight
Gabiluzbad
When the Joker is trying to prove that humans are fundamentally selfish assholes
Quinneapolis
the huge convict who ends up getting the detonator from the guard
Quinneapolis
and then just immediately throwing it off thte side of the ship
Gabiluzbad
IT WAS A GOOD SCENE
Gabiluzbad
"You know what you have to do, you're just too afraid to do it. Give it to me."
Quinneapolis
"You can tell them I used force"
Gabiluzbad
You KNOW the guard thought he was gonna blow up the other ferry
Gabiluzbad
And then on the ferry full of normal people
Gabiluzbad
"Why aren't you doing it?"
"....They haven't blown us up yet either."
oh i'm scary
the one edgelord on the passenger ferry who's like "I see none of you have the guts. FIne, I'll do it"
oh i'm scary
and then he can't
Zombibble
god yes
Zombibble
I love the dark knight...
Gabiluzbad
I shold
Gabiluzbad
rewatch the nolan batman movies again
Gabiluzbad
Also I've started to notice that the U key on this keyboard is a little sticky
Rama
That's about the only time I've seen a prisoner's dilemma done well in a film
Rama
Also props to the Joker for going through that much trouble to set up a PHIL 101 word problem in real life
Gabiluzbad
I remember not liking Dark Knight Rises very much at the time
Quinneapolis
thet main thing I struggled with in TDK was how the Joker seems to just be, like
Quinneapolis
a wizard
Quinneapolis
who can anticipate and do anything whenever he wants
Gabiluzbad
They REALLY wanted to sell him as Batman's ultimate rival
Rama
The Joker in TDK works pretty much exactly like the Joker in anything where the writers don't give a fuck
Rama
Except they clearly gave a fuck in TDK
Rama
So it's confusing
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
i remembered liking rising when i saw it in theaters but that was also because i was like, seventeen with bad taste and mostly just excited to be seeing a movie with my friend
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
i do still unironically think the scarecrow's scene is the best part of the movie
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
death................................. by exile.
oh i'm scary
Rises has a lot of really great scenes in it and some weaker connective tissue than TDK
𝔞𝔢𝔱𝔢𝔯𝔫𝔞✶𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔱𝔢𝔰
scarecrow's just
oh i'm scary
also Bane memes are funnier than Joker memes so it's the superior movie
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
also catwoman just fucking kneecapping bruce within the first 10 minutes of the movie
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
chef's kiss
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
or like, she kicks his cane out from under him or something? it's been like ten years since i saw this movie
oh i'm scary
yeah TDKR is the only Chris Nolan movie I've seen with, like
oh i'm scary
women
oh i'm scary
who are characters
oh i'm scary
as opposed to TDK which has literally one and she just gets the most textbook fridge treatment possible
oh i'm scary
after her boyfirend scoops her on the job you'd think she would have after Batman Begins
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
rachel is such a hysterical character to me in TDK because like
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
bc of the actress change in the second movie, i straight up just thought she was a different character
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
because she has no personality to identify her by. i was like "oh, i guess she's harvey's fiancee from TAS, that's a cute callback!"
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
and then when they started talking about bruce being into her i was like huh? OH
oh i'm scary
it really is just...
𝔞𝔢𝔱𝔢𝔯𝔫𝔞✶𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔱𝔢𝔰
calling her a character honestly even feels generous
oh i'm scary
she's not very intersting in Begins but the movie IS like
oh i'm scary
"she's the bravest, most idealistic DA, she's gonna be the one prosecuting the mob--"
oh i'm scary
and then The Dark Knight is like "FINALLY, HARVEY DENT IS WHAT GOTHAM HAS ALWAYS NEEDED, A BRAVE IDEALISTIC DA WHO WILL PROSECUTE THE MOB, THE ONLY ONE"
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
just kidding the men are actually doing all the work
oh i'm scary
as he literally dates her
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
the entire dark knight trilogy was christopher nolan finally working his way up to writing one (1) actual woman
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
... wait, nvm. two. i forgot about the other lady in TDKR
oh i'm scary
yeah!!! he really strained himself, like, TWO, dang Chris,
𝔞𝔢𝔱𝔢𝔯𝔫𝔞✶𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔱𝔢𝔰
can you just do that
𝔞𝔢𝔱𝔢𝔯𝔫𝔞✶𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔱𝔢𝔰
put two whole women in a movie
𝔞𝔢𝔱𝔢𝔯𝔫𝔞✶𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔱𝔢𝔰
is that like... allowed
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
rem are you sitting down rn
Gabiluzbad
Only if you're media visionary Chris Nolan
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
cos i'm about to tell you about a movie called birds of prey and i... i don't know if you're ready to hear this
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
but birds of prey has
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
at LEAST... three women in it
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
i counted
Gabiluzbad
/falls over
𝔞𝔢𝔱𝔢𝔯𝔫𝔞✶𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔱𝔢𝔰
what the fuck
𝔞𝔢𝔱𝔢𝔯𝔫𝔞✶𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔱𝔢𝔰
hwat... the fuck.... no
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
it might even be four
𝔞𝔢𝔱𝔢𝔯𝔫𝔞✶𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔱𝔢𝔰
that's fake
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
but i'm gay so i got scared and stopped counting after that
ArtIsArt
I liked the scene in TDKR where you could just tell Scarecrow was having the time of his life being a judge.
ArtIsArt
That guy was a good actor.
𝔞𝔢𝔱𝔢𝔯𝔫𝔞✶𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔱𝔢𝔰
cillian murphy is just here to have a good time and I respect it so much
ArtIsArt
I agree completely.
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
cillian murphy needs to go into comedy cos like
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
his energy is hysterical
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
i want to see him in comedies
Gabiluzbad
I didn't even remember he was IN Rises???
Gabiluzbad
It's been a while
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
when the shot cut to him in this scene, everyone in the theater whooped
Echo
God, that ferry scene was so good.
EsperBot
The Dark Knight arises has a bunch of problems but I think the biggest one is, nobody had the heart to tell Nolan that the bat suit looks pretty fucking dumb when brightly lit
EsperBot
Anyway yeah the ferry scene rules
A Grinning DM
My biggest disappointment in not getting another movie with that Joker is that I was really looking forward to seeing him setting up the Trolley Problem in real life next
Rama
Wasn't that the climax of Batman Begins?
Gabiluzbad
No that was releasing the fear gas all over Gotham
Gabiluzbad
oh wait no I'm dumb
