Re: The Dark Knight Rises

Bane is such an awesome choice for the main villain imo and Hardy is a great choice as well.

I hope they make his as brutal as ****!

Yes, it is. Batman looks tiny in that shot compared to Bane walking up.

Re: The Dark Knight Rises

And it looks awesome (sorry Bruce)

random speculation:

So in the teaser you can see Wayne's(?) hand resting in the foreground, as if he's sitting talking to Gordon. Who else thinks at that point Bane has already broken Batman's back, and Bruce is wheelchair bound, spurring the line "What if he doesn't exist anymore?" and the shots of him presumably training? I didn't think they'd really do the broken back angle, but i'm very intrigued by what has been shown.

Spoiler

If we get Knightfall, now that will kick ***. This is one long story arc when you include KnightQuest and KnightsEndthat I wonder how well it will translate to a 2.5 hour movie......but Nolan will find a way to amaze.

I think in the shot with gordan it's bruce in a wheel chair with a ski mask, you can kind of see an outline of a face but it's totally black, also the hand seems to be resting on something could be a wheel chair. The pushups look like bale no doubt in my mind.

Yes, yes it is Bane is about to slap Batman's ****. Is it odd I rewound that part like 10 times?

Watching again, i think the pushups might just be a clip from early on in Begins.

Part of what made the "knightfall" story arc great was the build up of Bane unleashing criminal after criminal at batman to wear him down...before he went in for the kill.

It was literally over a year build-up of comics issue wise.

If they go that direction in the movie its going to take a significant amount of time to develop that.

Maybe that's what the League of Shadows will be for?

If they're taking "Knightfall" as the basis for TDKR, I'm sure Nolan and Co. will find a way to adapt that sans time consumption.

Heck, give me a 3hr movie if that's what's needed! It's gonna take someone very special to top what Nolan has done with Batman (and I'm assuming TDKR will be bat**** crazy good).
