/bane/ - Baneposting

He filled Phil Collins' corpse with Dr. Pavel's blood so that whoever found the wreckage would think that body was Dr. Pavel. The problem is that he didn't replace his own body. He told Brother that they expect one of them in the wreckage, but his wondering why CIA would shoot a man before throwing him out of a plane implies that he knew CIA was bluffing about the flight plan only including one of Dr. Pavel's friends. Therefore, they were expecting the rest of them in the wreckage as well, and would still know something was up, even with Brother and Phil Collins in there.

But he immediately takes over gotham thus spoiling the ruse in front of everyone.

The plane contains no survivors.

>But he immediately

it was implied months to years passed between the plane scene and the post credits scene

It actually took me years to realize what the "expect one of us in the wreckage brother" line implied because of how well-written Bravo Nolan's script was: it just overwhelmed me the first few years

>that "one of us" refers to cia's "one of you"

>that bane actually believed cia was going to kill all but one of them instead of bringing them all back into custody for questioning

Bravo Nolan. Bravo.

So Bane, the master strategist, was fooled by CIA's ruse? Perhaps CIA was a bigger guy for him than he thought.

Crashing this plane is obviously a notion relative to the high skilled effort it took to hijack a plane with another plane, then crash it. Consider for a moment that Bane, especially the way he says it, wants to trigger or get a shock reaction from the CIA - "Crashing this plane !" and you see his eyes go all crazy, that was actually really good acting.

It's also obviously a reference to hijacking a plane with another plane, because the lines that immediately follow follow a similar technique - WITH NO SURVIVORS ! and then Bane proceeds to take over.

At the point in achievement of hijacking a plane with another plane, while also crashing it at the same time, I think most people would be fully in their rights to claim they had "crashed the plane" , that is "with no survivors" relatively speaking on the high skilled merit to achieve this feat, alone.
