    I kept thinking... Is that the dragon from Dragon Heart?
    I guess we'll be in a special club for 2.
    I didn't care for it either. Probably a 6/10 and the worst of the 3.
    Too long, too over the top, Bane was a midget, etc, etc.

            Same here, what were people expecting Bane to look like in a Nolan movie? He clearly wasn't going to have the unrealistic size seen in other depictions.

            He still was the most physically imposing presence in the movie. I think that aspect was done very well. Really the only time he wasn't physically overpowering was at the end when Bats got the better of him, but it still took significant firepower to ultimately take him down.

                made him imposing enough to me.

                    Dark Knight fans with $2 million hanging around can make their friends jealous by installing a high-tech, Batman-inspired screening room into their home, which features a Batmobile hidden behind bookshelves, life-size Batsuits and more.

                    The Dark Knight Home theater — a concept by Elite Home Theater Seating (Elite HTS) — is currently being built into a 12,000 sq. ft. home in Greenwich, Conn. It’s scheduled to be ready by November 2012.

                    In addition to a 180-inch movie screen, the room includes a series of accessories inspired by the film such as gargoyles and a cylinder-shaped elevator, which touts the bat symbol. To take the concept to the next level, Batman’s Tumbler vehicle is hidden behind bookshelves and a mock exit is created to look like a secret tunnel spanning about 30 feet.

                    The theater seats are designed to resemble what’s inside the Batmobile.

                    “Our goal was to fuse together the cozy elements of Wayne Manor, with the Art Deco styling of Gotham City,” Elite HTS said on its website.

                    Elite HTS is known for creating high-end, themed home entertainment spectacles, from the Batcave to a Pirates of the Caribbean home theater.

                            To Batman! In many of the scenes, Bale (who is only 5'7") looks larger than Bane.
                            I thought Bane was supposed to be a beast? At least 6 feet?

                            It was just one of many things that had me rolling my eyes during this film.

                              Considering Tom Hardy is two inches shorter than Bale, with a shaved head (and Batman had his ears), I'd say they did a pretty good job.

                              Like my friend who was complaining, it sounds like these could have been pre-rendered prior to the film being released, maybe even as far back as a year ago. This isn't new news.

                              Besides, he looked pretty massive to me, even in stature.
