Line 739:
** The Bank Manager (William Fichtner) who very calmly reacts to robbers in his bank... by whipping out a shotgun.
* [[Only Known by Their Nickname]]: The Joker, if "nickname" is a good word for it.
** The CIA agent in the intro of ''The Dark Knight Rises'' introduces himself as "I'm CIA". Averted in the novel version where he's given the codename "Bill Wilson"
* [[Orbital Shot]]: The Joker and Rachel. "Is it the scars? Want to know how I got them?"
* [[Overshadowed by Awesome]]: In ''The Dark Knight'', The Joker overshadows Batman. In the first movie Batman was given central focus, and the villains did not eclipse him. The sequel is more of a "Joker movie" than a "Batman movie", with Heath Ledger getting all the best lines and outperforming Bale in every scene. Overall the movie suceeds, since [[The Villain Makes the Plot]].
Line 948 ⟶ 949:
* [[Handicapped Badass]]: Bane has been re-imagined as one of these. After receiving a bad injury in his backstory, he gets through the pain by wearing a mask that constantly supplies him with anesthetic gas.
* [[High Altitude Interrogation]]: To gain information on Bane, a CIA operative interrogates his mooks by threatening to throw them out the open door of a plane in mid-flight.
* [[Informed Attribute]]: The CIA operative notes in the intro that Bane is "a big guy". The film otherwise makes little effort to hide that Tom Hardy is actually a cm shorter shorter than the American average of 175.9 cm and noticeably shorter than Christian Bale.
* [[Just Between You and Me]]: He pretty much exposits his plan to his enemies while captured. Justified, as he knew they wouldn't be able to live to talk about it, anyways.
* [[Leitmotif]]: Bane gets his within the first six minutes of the film.
