christian bale in batman begins EXTRA DVD BONUS 2/2 *KEYSI* behind scnes: the training ‘Shaping mind and body’ KFM is the fighting style which is primarily used by Christian Bale in Batman Begins, and will also be featured in The Dark Knight. Bale had this to say about the martial art: We’ve gone a bit further with Keysi (…). I’m actually learning how to do it more realistically than ever before, though it’s such an extreme way of fighting; there are literally moves where you tear someone’s cheek away from their face, or rip their nose off – every part of you becomes a weapon. It’s formidable. Batman doesn’t kill, so we can’t have him doing that; we modify it. “We really wanted something that would look as though Bruce Wayne-as-Batman had created his own style of fighting, something that was unique in style and look,” Christian Bale elaborates. “A big part of the Batman persona is the aggressive, animalistic way he attacks his enemies. I wanted to show how devastating he is when he charges forward and attacks people, and his resilience in taking blows as well.” “The Keysi Fighting Method is a very intuitive kind of martial art, but also very, very brutal,” Bale relates. “It’s all about going for the break straightaway. It’s quite instinctive and it adapts to many different situations. So it truly looks as though this is Batman’s own style that he’s come up with.” “Christian is an excellent student,” Forman attests. “We were very surprised at how quickly he absorbed the …
Greatest warrior wins the battle with out a fight.
wooow, so Christian Bale isn’t just a good actor, but an impresive hard working stuntman…exellent
ahaha I have photographic memory too lol
Interesting concept to put Keysi in for Batman’s fightng style whereas authentic ninjutsu would have been alot more realistic and favourbly more strategic with many of its stealth-like and fluid combat techniques (rather than sheer brute force with predominately elbows/fists). ShouLd have Bruce Wayne trained in Thailand then then gone to a ninpo temple to learn stealth arts & invisibility,lol (just a thought)
wow, chris nolan got that vegeta hair cut at 3:45
Beast shot of Bale at 6:13, oh and Liam Neeson is a pimp
I disagree, he looked slow when bulky. Lets not forget that Batman is in essence a ninja so he relies more on stealth (he sort of didn’t follow that rule when he faced the Joker and his gang but oh well) so the slim look fit him better in TDK.
Well, that’s pretty stupid, actually. You’re not that different from the psycho who goes on a thrill kill just for the “sheer rush of it”. You remind me that I started training in close quarters self defense precisely to fend off pricks like you.
If it were a perfect world you’d be an asshole, but it isn’t. We live in a culture that gives you a choice between putting up with shit from dickheads or having some control over your life. It is just fun getting in a fight providing nobody gets hurt, if you ask me.
Tbh Begins was better than Dark knight in the story way.
I was hoping for fight scenes like this in the Dark Knight. It was a good movie but no good fight scenes.
so true
This is the best batman ever made. No shitty stuff. This is all badass.
Yes! LOL now if I can just get this Keysi down than I can beat anyone’s ass any day!
that looks like fun — as sick as it seems,i used to get in fist-fights,barroom brawls when i was younger,sort of for the sheer rush of it…and i got some scars to prove it…unfortunatly,i also have a police-record to prove it,which is really a big downer,let-me-tell-ya…although on some level,i really think violence sucks and does no real good,it actually IS fun to go toe-to-toe with somebody now and then…is thais part of human nature,or am i just an asshole?…i often wonder…peace
Damn. I wish he had the same size in TDK. He looked much much better when he’s bulky. He fills the suit much more intimidatingly and he looked so much like a UFC champ.
7:20 was cool. Great pose.
lol wow i ain;t ever messing with christian bale
You’re not the devil, you’re practise.
I. Love. Christian. Bale.
cool stuff..too bad it turns out christian bale’s kinda an asshole in real life. supposedly..
