The Dark Knight Rises Tom Hardy as Bane XXV

[KalMart]

You have officially stepped over the line of ******edness. Nolan Bane defenders...you mean people who are actually excited to see this film? I looked through all your posts and 9/10 are just slagging off Hardy and his physique. I bet you auditioned for Bane and got turned down or something cos its all you talk about. You even said yourself that you now know Nolans Bane is different and you wouldnt talk about it again..weeks later your still on about it.

Buddy, you may have to re evaluate your line "You have stepped over the line of ******edness". You sound like a fanboy who believes that what happens in movies happens in real life. Tom would kick Shias butt because Tom has MMA training? let me guess your source for that is Warrior huh? LMAO! So I guess Bale is trained in Jiu Jitsu and Scarlett is trained in Interrogation and spy trade craft.

Please, shut up. I'm not Nolan fanboy, as i'm sure anyone on this forum will point out. But your constant moaning is not only annoying, it's redundant. Just get the hell over it and keep an open mind. All you are doing is ruining the enjoyment of not anyone else, but yourself.

Seriously, you're like "comic book guy" from the Simpsons, yet what makes it worse is; you haven't even seen the damn film yet.

That circle on the Bane reveal picture - upon reflection, could that be the tunnel which you need to climb up to escape the pit?

Yap, that's what I meant, I guess I am not very good with words lol

Come on that's just purely a promo photo they threw out there before the spy pics would show up. That light is probably literally a studio light that wasn't shut off.

Yeh but think about it yo, was that photo released around the same time as the first trailer? If it was, then I think that white spot should be more than meets the eye...or however you say it

I can see where your coming from but we've seen about..what..a total of less than 10minutes of footage from a film that's possibly 3 hours in length..so we don't even know how he will be represented as a whole on screen. And all the shots we'be seen of him so far could easily be swapped (except the prologue stuff) for other takes, as does happen after trailers.

Even I will withhold a full opinion until July 20th because of that. Plus, half the shots make him look bigger and half smaller so its a tough one lol..perhaps he does have a form of venom idk..but either way EVERY shot of his face is menacing, so im sold!

yeh, from the actual running footage of the film that I've seen (the prologue) I thought the guy was lookin pretty brolic...and when I was showing it some of my friends one was like "how much you wanna bet...that IS Bane" when the cia *****e was picking up Dr. Pavel and talkin to the delivery man about those 3 mercs who supposedly work for Bane

Bane's mask is going to be so iconic when this movie releases. I could even see them changing it in the comic book continuity.



I found this on the internet. If Bane's mask can suceed in making Big Boss look more awesome, then it is truly a great design.

 

[KalMart]

I didn't quite know what that was at first, but then I did, and lmao. t:

 

[Miranda Fox]

That reckoning .gif will never stop being awesome. Who made it?

 

[The Morningstar]

It is genius.

 

[XtremelyBaneful]

The angle is the only thing that's throwing me off though. The way the light is hitting him on the back and from above... it's a different light source. And if that tunnel were to be above him, we would have to either move the tunnel over or have a view aiming more towards the top of Bane's head.

Now the light above him could very well be the entrance of the prison high above, but to believe that that hole is it off the left? I doubt it. It looks like some kind of hole very distant; I'm honestly still baffled. LOL

Yeh what I'm saying is maybe the promo wasn't meant to be proportioned, perhaps it was distorted to fit that white circle on purpose yknow.. just a thought anyways

Way too much of a stretch for that early of a promo photo, methinks. Probably just an element of light in the picture.

Someone else here made the original manip of Bane.

 

[Travesty]

I don't know why, but I can't see that gif. I keep seeing people quote it, but its just a light blue square for me.

Weird.

 

[The Morningstar]

I had that the other day. But can see it fine now.

 

[Victarion]

What if Bane's glove is a falconer's gauntlet? Instead of a lackey named bird, he could have a falcon.

I wonder if it was purposely made that there were references in these Batman films to some of the next villains in the series

in BB:
"To all you two faced sycophantic suckups..." <--in the scene where he's pretending to be drunk kicking everybody out of the palisades

"leaves a calling card.." <--that one was pretty much obvious

in DK:
"should do fine against cats" <--- when lucious was handing bruce the new batsuit.

"you have nothing, nothing to threaten me with. nothing to do, with all your strength..." <--when joker was takin punches from batman in the interrogation room. and at least now, batman WILL have something to do with all his strength, test it on his ultimate physical challenge

I think this is just a case of you looking into things too much. But you should check out the Bible Code. I think you'd like it.

 

[Greens]

The only "reference" was the Joker card in BB. Nothing else.

I never noticed the two-face one before! The cat one always stood out to me. Interesting, I think they may have been dropped in as little nods.

bible code? no thanks man i'm good

trust me i'm not lookin into it that much, it is just a thought coz hey, it does make sense..

edit: thank you, johnny!! yes, little nods. i don't see why not, yknow

 

[jonnywhc]

Welcome! yeah..if you aren't a Nolan or Goyer you can't say "no, no way" lol..

 

[Greens]

There's not even the slightest possibility that the two-faced and strength ones are nods to future villains. The cats one does stand out.

 

[jonnywhc]

Why not even a possibility?

 

[Greens]

Because saying that someone is two-faced is a legitimate expression, and it works in context.

Why would you even think that just because Joker drops the word strength, it's a nod to Bane? Also, they thought of the next major villain after TDK.

 

[Travesty]

Why not even a possibility?

Because it's so unlikely that it was purposefully put there for that, especially the "two face/strength" lines.

 

[XtremelyBaneful]

I don't know man, even if it is unlikely I think the idea still fits. It doesn't matter that much, to me it's like the equivalent of someone having a few seconds-cameo in a film
