How I see it is, RemoteEvents and RemoteFunctions help regular scripts and local script communicate with each other. Functions can return results after they are called.

Events are the same but can not return anything after they are done.

They are also especially useful for minimizing lag and codes within a FilteringEnabled environment.

Bindable CANNOT communicate between the client and server. They serve the same purposes of RemoteEvents / functions between two of the same script types, though.
