Same scenario as DH1 but it's Bane taking over the building, instead of letting his thugs handle Mac instead Bane takes the fight to Mac who has his shoes and isn't so beat up meaning he's fresh. Mac also knows about Bane and his mask...so...who wins?

the ninjak
McClane shoots Bane in the head.

Roll credits.

steverules_2
Probably shoulda stated this in the OP that Mac doesn't have his gun, thought it would be common knowledge he didn't since I didn't state that he had a gun but I guess I should say this is a fist fight till a KO or death

Sadako of Girth
Indeed. Rules be rules.

Well H2H I say Bane has his work cut out for him. Hes not met anyone with McClane's durability and McClane was better and dirtier a fighter than Batman, willing to actually kill, and if we're talking early McClane hes way better conditioned than Bruce was in TDKR.

He is resourceful enough to pick up a lump of wood or metal or anything from the environment around him and batter Bane to death or stab him through the face with it.

Plus he is lucky enough to even accidentally mess up Bane's mask, crippling him also leading to soon-after coup de grace.
But since he knows, Bane is doomed.

But with his trusty side arm the fight lasts 2 secs in massive McVictory.

Psychotron
H2H? McClane's damage soak > Bane's. McClane is crafty, he'll go right for the mask and then it's game over.

Lestov16
IDK. How would you rank Bane on a MA level compared to, say, Colonel Stuart or Mai Linh?

Robtard
LoL, pure spite.

McClane with knowledge of his opponent's weakness is essentially animated Batman with prep. He can't lose.

steverules_2
Ok so if we take away Mac's knowledge...makes it more fair? If so then I'm taking away Mac's knowledge of Bane and his mask

Kazenji
This vs thread..... Impediment predicted it.

CowardlyBlakMan
Every thread is spite vs McClane. Didn't everyone get the memo?

Lestov16
Not everyone, but possibly this one, but like I said, where does Bane rank amongst martial artists such as Stuart, Mai Lihn, or Targo? That will determine the fight

McClane loses, and frankly, you're an idiot if you disagree.

Uuuuuummmm that would be gimping... ("changing conditions and attributes of a matchup until one side that would normally loses wins"wink

But Mcclane being lucky enough to damage it first shot without knowing it (especially as Banes wears it in the middle of the zone McClane will be going for makes it a forgone conclusion.)

Unlikely , given McClane's proven durability.

McClane never gets KOed, even when he's getting kicked out of a window

Lestov16
Highly likely, given McClane's piss-poor fighting style, as shown here:

Uuuuuummmmmm you mean the fight afterwhich which McClane was alive and his opponent (along with his 15 of his opponents highly trained friends) were killed and McClane went on to save the day..?

Hmmmmmmm.

Lestov16
Yep, "afterwhich", which means we are talking purely about the H2H fight in which McClane got the manshit beat out of him, not irrelevant stuff that happened after

It's pretty obvious who's superior when you have to gimp McClane by taking away his gun AND knowledge.

Sadako of Girth
Well he was "too poor" a fighter to beat all his opponents onscreen too....yet he killed them all and went for a beer.

Purely flair based and poncey slappy slappy crap doesnt really work.
That was why Riggs lost to McClane.

Its the effective and often dirty stuff that works. Straight from A to B sorta shit.

Of course he doesn't have a gun. It's a H2H fight........

BlackZero30x
If McClane had a weapon (doesn't have to be a gun....a knife would do) or knew banes mask weakness he would win but just a straight up fight Bane would rape him.

Bane just punches McClane's face over and over again.

Lestov16
No, the mythical "McClane Factor" will come in and make the roof collapse on Bane at the last second, since that's the only way McClane will get a win here laughing

the ninjak
So even though this fight takes place in the same scenario as Die Hard 1.

McClane doesn't have all the tools at his disposal as he had in the film?

He has to take on Bane in the same situation as Batman did in TDKRs after many rewrites?

I call shenanigans.

Lestov16
Damn you ninjak!

But no, if Bane headed the Nakatomi mercs, McClane would not have survived. For one thing, Bane isn't stupid enough to not conduct a patdown

the ninjak
The terrorists arrived after the party.

McClane shoots Bane in the freakin head!

Bane didn't foresee a supercop.

Lestov16
Only thing getting freaked is McClane's spine when Bane breaks it

Robtard
Good to see that for McClane to lose he needs to be gimped of his resources and knowledge.

Here's an idea for another like fight, Superman Vs Bane, cept Superman has been totally drained of his powers. Go!

Lestov16
Nah, even if he had his resources and knowledge of DH1, he still is going to get freaked by Bane. Bane is on a completely different level than Hans.

Something that we have seen done to McClane over and over again.

And McClane endures, survives and kills the bad guy over and over again.

1) McClane gets a gun from one of Bane's henchmen (as he did in DH1)

2) McClane shots Bane right in the face through his mask, as he has no problem killing

3) McClane adds quick quip

Maybe....or maybe McClane's Beretta (standard Die Hard 1 gear that he starts the movie with) delivers a 9mm round between Bane's eyes?
Bane is actually fighting someone here who is allowed to and can kill.

Lestov16
He endures because his opponents are idiots who won't finish him off, or he is BFRed. You have yet to show McClane outfighting anybody in pure H2H

But McClane is fighting someone here who is intelligent enough to do patdowns. Remember when they held up the Stock Exchange? They are far more comptent than the Hans Brigade

Sadako of Girth
Watch the movie called Die Hard, you'll see that the Hans character you mention was a very smart man.

Lestov16
Are you saying he was smarter than Bane?

BlackZero30x
.....what real feat of "uber" intelligence did bane have? In TDKR I entirely interpreted the plan as Talias and Bane was her solider.

Bane wasn't a mastermind, Talia was. He was the muscle. McClane did get a gun in DH from the henchmen.

Sorry, just going to have to deal that Bane goes down to a single bullet. I know he's the new shiny, but deal

ares834
Then you interpreted it wrong. Bane and Talia were equals. Hence, why Bane chooses to ignore her "order". Bane was in charge of the military conquest and Talia was in charge of the economic. There is no reason to believe she was telling Bane what to do.

just because he ignores it doesn't make it any less an order you do realize that right? So ignoring the order or not she was clearly giving him an order. He was nothing more then her solider. If I join the army and ignore an order from the ranking officer doesn't make me his partner.......

No, they were not equals. While Bane wasn't some moron, he was her lackey and she was the one that had planned out the entire scenario as revenge for her father's death.

Accept it certainly didn't come across as an order, more of a suggestion. And even if we say Talia is the leader, which I find to be unfounded, there is no reason to believe she was telling Bane what to do throughout the movie. We see Bane is a tactical genius right from the start when he calls out that one CIA Agent on his BS.

for starters it doesn't take a tactical genius to see the fallacy in shooting someone before throwing them off a plane....

and her stern "NO keep him alive" seemed like an order to me. As far as the rest Im not saying he's stupid because he wasn't he just isn't as smart as people think. There was nothing to show he was her partner and there was certainly no evidence to prove he came up with the plan. What we have to go on is the order Talia gave bane at the end and the story she tells as she dies. Plus she even refers to him as her protector. IMO there is more evidence to support him being her solider then them being partners. In fact it seemed to me Bane didn't care about destroying gotham he just wanted to beat batman but this is just speculation.

the ninjak
Bane only wanted to enact Talia's wishes for he loved her.
Yet his personal pride also shone above her final wishes once he saw that they had no consequence....simple.
His failings had nothing to do with the endgame due to Catwoman's interferance.


Bane is screwed. McClane kills him.

ares834
So you are just assuming that Talia came up with the plan because you think she is in charge? We never see Talia telling Bane how to execute the plan, and when she is revealed it isn't suggested that she even came up with it. Bane, on the other hand, shows us his genius throughout the movie like how he escapes from the Stock Market.

And nah, he seems to be into destroying Gotham. Ra's saved him from the Pit, I could see him having some affection for the guy even if Ra's ousted him. Plus he continues to go on and on about how he will fulfill Ra's al Ghul's destiny.

Lestov16
It must suck to be Bane. For the second time in a row he has become the henchman for a villainess laughing

Yes. Though Bane was ousted by the League due to his monstrous nature. One Talia no doubt took advantage of.

no actually you are the one assuming Bane came up with it because you want to believe he did. There is absolutely no evidence to support your claim. I on the other hand have Talia not only giving bane an order to go on but Talia actually announcing it was her idea. But like I said this is how I and others have interpreted it. You can interpret it however you want but don't come on here saying "you interrupted it wrong then" when there is no evidence to back it up. mine might be vague but at least it is there.

as for the last part like I said it was speculation...

ares834
Where does Talia announce it was her plan? She may have said she wants to destroy Gotham and get revenge, yet that doesn't mean she planned it. Basically, we see Bane executing all the militaristic aspects of the plot without anyone telling him how to do it nor at the ending is it suggested that Talia told him what to do.

Edit: Plus he goes around saying he is the LoS... No reason to mention that if it weren't true.

Psychotron
Movie Bane was utter fail. Crappy voice, unimpressive body, got his ass kicked by a broken Batman, a lackey for Talia and went out like a *****, to Catwoman of all people.

McClane wastes him and comes up with a much better one-liner to boot.

Well....

-By the fact that she was stationed the whole time as a Wayne head.
-By the fact that she witnessed all the plans by the rebellion. And ruined them.
-By the fact that she was manipulating the Batman the whole time.
-By the fact that she was the twist in the film. And Batman's guts with a knife.
-By the fact that she was the one who made the jump and saved Bane from the prison.
-By the fact that she was the one who Bane adored so much he wept when she appeared in full force.

BlackZero30x
idk when Talia tells the whole story about ras saving bane from the pit then he kicked him out and she was enraged and estranged herself from him. She then finds out batman "ended" him so in honor she wanted to fulfill her dads plan as a kind of homage to him. So what you are saying is Bane was he partner because Talia didn't go do all of the "heavy lifting"? lol. She not only wasn't trained like bane and batman but she didn't exactly have the strength to carry a lot of this out. Not to mention she quite clearly couldn't risk her cover being blown or the plan would have died then and there.

How does that contradict anything I said? Not one of those involves her telling Bane how to execute the plan.

Anyway, lets go through them one by one.

1. I've already claimed Talia was in charge of the economic part of the plan.
2. You mean the one plan she ruined...
3. Yes, back to the economic.
4. Being a twist does not make you the main villain. Look at "The World is not Enough" which bares many similarities.
5. Bane also saved Talia in the prison.
6. Yes, there is a fraternal bond suggested between the two which is where I get the idea that they were equals.

Hey Bane was a strategical villain in his own right.
He was the might. She was the key.
Without either the whole couldn't have worked.
Why does he care about her father's revenge when her father kicked him out of the League???? Because he loved her. He adored her.

ares834
Originally posted by BlackZero30x

lol indeed as that is not at all what I am saying.

However, it comes from their relationship which is borderline fraternal. Both clearly have feeling for each other and it seem to be the non-romantic variety. Yes, Bane is tearing up at the end, but Talia also expresses admiration for Bane. She views him as a heroic figure and of course talked her father into saving him.

They has very deep relationship, it's love and trust "molded" by the hell on earth. That's why despite both of them having dark and brutal souls they cared for eachother until the end.

Furthermore, we get Bane declaring himself the LoS and that it "his" calculations that the bomb will explode in five months.

BlackZero30x
No I agree that Bane had a deep care for Talia there is no question of that. But it is because of his love for her that he was doing as she wanted. They, as ninjak pointed out both had a part to play but none of that is proof that Bane came up with the plan. You say that it isn't shown anywhere that she tells him the "parts" in the plan. Well that logic bends back on itself as it doesn't show Bane making the plan at any point either. All any of us have to go on is what is shown in the movie. In the movie Talia is undercover and that can not be blown or the plan is toast, Talia says she wanted revenge...that she wanted to enact her fathers plan, She refers to bane has her protector, and at the end tells...not asks to not kill batman and to let him die in the fire. This all points (to me that is) that she was the brains and needed bane to do the heavy work. There can be speculation about any of it as people are going to interrupt it how they will but there is no real evidence that they work as partners. Out of everything I have heard the "them caring for each other" is the most comprehensive reasoning for them being partners but I just don't see it still. To me Talia had no want to lead the LoS but Bane did and he had no real want to destroy gotham other then because Talia wanted to and he fallowed her. That is why Bane "was the League of shadows". As for the bomb...what part does bane say "this bomb will go off in five months without the remote". I don't remember that at all. He was trying to convince gotham as long as he lived the bomb wouldn't go off.

McClane is going to die


no matter what, even if he gets past all of the other henchmen. There is no way he is going to get to the end scene with Bane holding Holly captive, because in that scene Bane would definitely have his men conduct a patdown, and discover the gun taped to McClane, thus leaving his only option of escape to be H2H, and even if he fights off the henchmen, you know Bane is going to want to take him on H2H, and it will be this guy:

Yeah, no.

Watch the scene at

McClane's win relied entirely on PIS with Hans not having his man check McClane. Had he done that, McClane wouldn't have rode off in the sunset with Grace Kelly. Your entire basis for Bane's loss is that he will have the PIS to get into a monologue with McClane about Westerns. Remember in TDKR when he robbed the Stock Exchange? He's a very efficient robber who isn't going to explain himself to some cop. He had a personal beef with Bats, so that's why he monologued with him. McClane, not so much.

Talia was more of a figurehead than anything, imo. The movie was kind of vague about their relationship, but I felt that Bane was the real leader. Unless Talia is some kind of brilliant prodigy, the LOS is probably going to listen to the huge hulking man instead of the little lady. That's sexism, but what can you do?


As for the scenario, John McClane loses badly in straight H2H. But if Bane and his men simply replace Hans Gruber and his guys at Nakatomi Plaza and the plot goes on as normal, I see things going pretty much the same as in the movie. Bane won't face an armed man like John unless he had an advantage.

Lestov16
Yeah, if they have Bane literally just repeating every action Hans did, word for word, then there really isn't a point to it

steverules_2
I could see Mac wrapping a chain around his hand and using that to punch with or using a weapon of some sort on Bane

Nephthys
Bane would probably just grab his hand/arm and break it if he tried that tbh.

Darth Martin
I'm mad we're comparing Bane to Gruber. Batman would straight-up punk Gruber and all of his men. Bane? Yea, good luck with that.

Gruber took over a skyscraper. Bane was running Gotham City for 5 months, kicked its superhero's ass to the brink of death, toppled the people in power, buried the police, broke everyone out of prison, had his ultra-loyal assassins riding around the city in tanks, and made the U.S. government watch while all this happened.

When Special Forces did move in their asses were hung on a bridge and shown on national television.

Bane is clearly on a completely different level. Dude made the events of 9/11 and Bin Laden look puny.

He's a very efficient robber who isn't going to explain himself to some cop. He had a personal beef with Bats, so that's why he monologued with him. McClane, not so much.

Sorry, a cop + gun + willing to kill > Bane. Just accept that the new shiny only succeeded cos Batman isn't a gun wielding killer.

I know it's hard since TDKR just came out and Bane's the new fanboy favorite, but TRY.

John doesn't need his gun, he just takes the guns from the henchmen he kills, like he did in the movie.

Bane gets shot.

Sadako of Girth
Exactly.

NemeBro
This is apparently a fistfight only.

Bane uses McClane's face as a punching bag, and if he feels like it bends him over and goes to brown town.

Lestov16
Not if the omnipotent "McClane Factor" has anything to say about it, according to some people.....

Sadako of Girth
Holy shit just regular cop instinct would suffice.
Pretty obvious that the breathing mask is a weakpoint...
Once smashed off or shot (unless the basic equipment gimp holds) it'll all be academic. Theres tonnes of stuff that Batman wasn't allowed to do that McClane would be able to do. From nut shots to throat punchings... McClane beats this despite the gimptrolls objections.

Robtard
I do like that at least the McHaters admit in a roundabout fashion that McClane has to be denied his standard gear (gun) while Bane is allowed his (mask), in order for McClane to have a chance of losing.

NemeBro
Actually Bane punches him in the face over and over again and he beats him down.

Bane was largely immune to pain (Due to the mask), so nut shots and throat punches wouldn't work.

Robtard
Being punched in the face is a completely different pain than being hit in the testicles (you'd know if you had a pair) and the throat shot has less to do with inflicting pain as it does making one choke-up/out.

Indeed!

Pain or no pain a hit to throat could cause death by suffocation. If hit hard enough his throat would swell shut!

That's why Bane dies via being shot in the head. As in the first response to this much prolonged debate.

Lestov16
Doesn't change the fact that certain people actually suggested that McClane would beat Bane H2H laughing out loud

Silent Master
Doesn't change the fact that the thread had to be changed because Bane would lose a standard fight.

Lestov16
Doesn't change the fact that this isn't a standard fight. Matter of fact, the thread had to be changed from a standard fight into a scenario simplistic enough for McClane to accomplish laughing

Silent Master
The thread was changed because Bane would lose 10/10 based on the OP.

If McClane's gimped to just using his fist and fighting a standard brawl, it's obvious Bane has a slight advantage.

But that's the point people are making, McClane first need to be gimped of his standard gear and then gimped of his supreme ability of using objects in the environment to his advantage.

When characters need to be gimped in order for the opponent to have a chance, that should tell you something. Remove your McHate goggles; you'll see.

So nope, try again, you godawful homosexual.

Robtard
LMK when you're done with the Bane wanking.

the ninjak
Bane just stood there whilst Batman tried his crap on him.

And even after repeated failures Bane still let Batman simply hit him.
Yet Batman was easily able to jump on and unleash punches to Bane's skull. All attempts failed..........why?

Because Batman sucked.

McClane would go straight for the throat and balls. Or use a nearby object to insert in the jugular.

Batman doesn't kill his opponents. His quote was "I'll just fight harder" lolz.

McClane has no such weakness.

Lestov16
Yes, he has no such weakness. Except for his weakness for being pwned by glass. Not sure how that's going to help him tank hits from the immune-to-pain concrete-puncher Bane laughing

He Pwned the glass. And all the guys that caused it to break with their bullets.

"Glass? Who gives a shit about glass...??" - John McClane, Die Hard 1

Ha. A concrete puncher who had to be saved from a badly handicapped man by a girl. Concrete dies all over the place in the Die Hard movies....you know what doesnt though...? McClane.

Lestov16
A badly handicapped man who was leagues (pardon the pun) above McClane in the combat department. Bane would have raped McClane had McClane been in the same position. Just like Bane is going to rape McClane here

Sadako of Girth
Bane clearly showed that he lacks what it takes to break the unbreakable. smile

No McClane wont get raped. He is not Bauer trying to get through the Die Hard movies without Tony and co.

Lestov16
He already broke the unbreakable. Unless you're now going to say McClane was above Batman laughing out loud

It's going to be hilarious seeing McClane doing his best Bobby Trippe impression laughing out loud

Sadako of Girth
roll eyes (sarcastic)

A no-cartilage-left beaten up old ass Batman...? Sure.

Did you not see TDKR?


Also think for once about the inanity of what you just said.
IE The death star is indestructible, and the Titanic unsinkable, by your "rationale"... laughing

Batman was breakable. Very breakable indeed.

You've now combined your Bauer fellating with your massive, legendary butthurt and turned it into Bauer-felching. Euuwwwwwww. sick

Lestov16
A crippled Batman is still leagues above McBytch on his best day, and it's hilarious that you think otherwise

You are the one who originally said McChump was unbreakable. I merely proved how, like everything else, what you said was baseless McBiased bullshit

Bats most certainly wasn't breakable, considering humans don't usually heal from a snapped vertebrae and then re-train themselves to be combat masters who can make impossible leaps out of prisons. Once again, the fact that you have to downplay Batman is just utterly hilarious and really shows how much McBias is in your noggin laughing

Bane makes McChump his Bobby Trippe. The end.

Also the fact that you know about all of these nasty sex acts like felching is quite odd. I don't want to know what techniques you and McClane use in the bedroom! Keep it to yourself!

Sadako of Girth
Clearly not.

Screenfeats, baby.

He was breakable: Bane broke him.

Batman downplayed Batman.
I don't downplay, unlike you, who feels the need to all the time..

Nope its not. I used to watch the Mary Whitehouse Experience.
Besides theres a big difference between having heard of it, and actually doing it, like you do every night to whatever Bauer/Bane fanwank is trendy on the day. (I see you didnt ask what it was btw. lol )

Lestov16
laughing at that Mcbiased notion

Screenfeats prove he gets WTFpwned by glass laughing

Once again, the fact you think McClane is above even crippled Batman exposes your Mcbias

So you watched the show, and then you suggested it to McClane? He was probably ecstatic at the idea

Sadako of Girth
Except that he didnt get pwned by glass, he volutarily ran across it in bare feet then calmly picked it out moments later...then killed everyone and saved the day... so that demonstrates your bias and hatered of Mcclane through butthurt right there.

Nah. Its not bias. Hence no "exposure".

Sorry what was that? all I could hear was you and Bauer, and lots of sickening squelching noises coming from your lovetent. At least I think it was you....hard to tell if it was your voice since you clearly had your mouth full.

NemeBro
Did you miss the part where Batman had bionics to compensate for the lack of cartilage in his legs?

Sadako of Girth
Nope. He still needed them.

If we gimped Batman to the same degree that others felt the need to gimp McClane to here, Batman would have no bionics, no armour and would probably have his hands tied behind his back.

Mr. Rhythmic
Bane makes McClane die hard.

Why's this even a discussion? BATMAN got whooped. Before you pull the "he was weary," look at all of the elite killers Bruce took out before fighting Bane. Out of shape my ass. Also, those bionics INCREASED his strength. One kick and concrete/brick shattered.

I'm doubting that Sadako even SAW "Rises." Bane was just a force of raw, untamed nature.

Sadako of Girth
Well Im afraid you're wrong to doubt in this case.

And I saw the bit where Bane had to be saved by his ladyfriend too, when his weakpoint was exploited..

I didn't see any evidence that he was bulletproof either.

NemeBro
This is a fistfight.

Your butthurt clouds your rational mind.

And ur just jelly that you don't get to have sex with underage girls like Bane does.

So McClane has a knife and knows Bane's background and exact weakness?
Because that's the only reason Batman won.
And if McClane has a gun here, let's give Bane one.

Sadako of Girth
Ah gimped it is, then.

Well McClane lucks out, smashes off the mask, nutshots him, throat punches him, game over.

You keep judging Bane on the fact that he kept winning against a smashed up old man who would not allow himself to kill.

Nah McClane uses the same 9mm Beretta that is his standard gear to shoot Bane through the head.
But Bane wasnt shown having one. Screenfeats and basic attributes.

LOLZ at the fact that not only does McClane has to be gimped here, but Bane now has to have extra stuff added to him in order to secure a butthurt fanboy win. lol

NemeBro
I judge Bane on the fact that he took hits from a man who could break bricks with a single easy kick and that he demonstrated near or outright superhuman physical strength and a virtual immunity to pain.

He punches McClane into submission.

So gimp = Fair fight?
This entire argument assumes that McClane CAN nutshot and throat punch Bane. How in God's name is he going to do that, exactly? Bane's speed, durability, and strength is far more than McClane can handle.
What's stopping Bane from cracking his neck, then?

A "smashed up old man" whose bionics allowed him to crush concrete with a simple kick, and an old man who took out some of the world's most professional assassins. We went over that.

Robtard
This was McClane in the Diehard scenario with Bane and his men in place of Hans and his.

Since McClane clearly decimates a Die Hard scenario, it's now Gimped McClane Vs Bane and McClane is only allowed to use his fist, ie double-gimping McClane to ensure his chances of winning are slim.

Clearly the pro McClane people aren't the ones that are crying, it's all you Bane bitches that have to have your new-shiny win, so the thread is modified. Ninjak had it correct with the first response post; the Bane-has-to-win crying came after. Them the facts.

Sadako of Girth
Nope, Rhythmic. Gimping means handicapping a side.

If that was done to give Bane a chance then that was an admission that McClane stomps. This is why this should have, by rights, ended on page 1.

After all of the things shown in the DH movies that would have broken any normal cop's neck, that fialed to even scratch McClane's what makes you think that Bane could do it?
He survived all his shit without bionics, without breathing armour without anything.

Except give Bane a gun, then. He'll still win. McClane was "the wrong place at the wrong time." Bane's a professional killer that Hans would piss himself around.

Who says hes as good a shot as McClane with a gun?
He'd still lose.
Screenfeats count for a lot.

If its not a fair fight, then gimping wont help.
Admitting it to be so, and retreating with dignity might though.

Otherwise its pointless and would belong in the gimping thread.

Did Bane use guns in TDKR? I don't recall ever seeing him use one, can you name a scene where he did? How good was he with a gun, cos McClane's pretty good; he has four movies worth of gun feats.

Considering McClane's the one that needs to be gimped here, looks like it is.
