Wait, what? How do you know I'm Batman?

I met you a long time ago, and I could tell by the look in your eyes that you missed your dead parents. So I deduced that you dress like a bat and beat up criminals.

So it comes to this, the epic match between two graduates of the world's most lethal ninja organization. Truly this battle will be a showcase of precision fighting techniques and tactical skills.

Grrggllrrr frrrraar!This was hilarious. It was also the other big problem I had with the movie, aside from the Bat-blubbering at the end.

Bane is a really difficult character to bring to the screen. In the comics it took something like 20 issues for Bane's activities to wear Batman down to the point that Bane could beat him; Knightfall was a 6-month story arc that involved every villain from Batman's rogues gallery being released from Arkham. So when you try to wrap that up into a 2 hour movie, you have to take away from one of the characters in a major way. You either make Batman a puss or Bane a throw-away villain.

In "Dark Knight Rises," they never gave a convincing reason for Bane to walk all over Batman. "Oooh, he's young and determined." But wait, he's older than Talia, and Talia is pretty damn close to Bruce Wayne's age. "Oooooh, he was born in the dark." Batman is a goddamn ninja who killed the master of both of them. So why was the first fight so one-sided? Batman's old injuries? Then why was the second fight Batman's to win, with a recently broken back. It should never have been Bane, unless you're willing to devote at least two movies to the story.

How about simply bashing that gas mask thing off his head?

BAT-BALE launches a flurry of hugely telegraphed haymakers. He eventually hits TOM'S MASK, knocking just one of the eight tubes free and immediately turning TOM into a sniveling WIMP.
