staySICK Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 yea, Knightfall is actually a pretty decent story. although it did give birth to this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Maybe Hardy will play skinny Bane and a big guy comes in for muscular Bane? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staySICK Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Maybe Hardy will play skinny Bane and a big guy comes in for muscular Bane? I don't think that'll be necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 But how will you do the scenes where he gets bigger? Bane has two different sizes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staySICK Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 maybe he won't in the Nolanverse? Nolan likes to keep things more grounded in reality with the Batman movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 So what, he'd always be juiced up at all times? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Makes sense. Joker didn't start as a regular guy. It's not like you need to know too much on Bane pre-venom, compared to getting to know Two-face before the acid/petrol stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 (edited) Well yeah but Joker NEVER had a real solid backstory except in the original Burton Batman so it's easier to get away with that. Plus, if Bane is always on Venom all the time he should either A) Get very ill from it or B ) Constantly have to get refills. I'm not really talking about backstory as much as the fact that Bane only USES the venom when he actually needs it.

BrainHurtBoy...2 Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 I'm not too optimistic about the portrayal of Bane in this movie. While the Dark Knight was a perfectly good film, I was sorely disappointed with Heath Ledger's Joker. Not to say he was a bad villain, but the villain Ledger played simply wasn't my ideal Joker. The Joker, to me, is this sort of clean-cut, non-sleazy guy who makes a bunch of bad jokes and is just batshit insane, rather than a glorified anarchist in uneven makeup.

Mr W Phallus Posted January 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Doubting Heath Ledger's Joker? That's a brave, brave man right there. Personally I think the unpredictable nature of the Joker's personality is part of what makes him the Joker. Different interpretations of him just add to that.

Mister Jack Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Some like to believe the Joker completely reinvents his personality when he feels he's gotten stuck in a rut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr W Phallus Posted January 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 I'm sure I've read a prose story (with accompanying art) that is about exactly that in one of the Batman graphic novels/collected editions I have but I can't for the life of me remember which... The Killing Joke maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hot Heart Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Like staySICK was saying, I get the feeling they just won't have him 'bulk up' when using venom. Just makes him stronger and quicker at healing. Having the effect would just look silly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorgiShinobi Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 You know, every time I hear about Anne Hathaway, I always think of this creepy picture of her on an article years ago on the rumor that she digs anal sex. Now she's acting in a Batman movie and I don't want to correlate the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr W Phallus Posted March 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 Hmmm, interesting. The Long Halloween is one of my favourite Batman stories, but I wouldn't have thought they'd go with a non-original story so maybe he won't be that person who you'll know he is if you know your Batman. I guess we'll have to wait and see. Good casting though, I think he'll fit the role well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hot Heart Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 Yeah, I don't think they'd go with non-original stuff, but they've obviously taken things directly from the comics before. By now, I'd trust Nolan to do whatever anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hot Heart Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Turns out Gordon-Levitt will not be playing Alberto Falcone, and I wasn't even aware Marion Cotillard was going to be in the film. Inception cast overload...now I won't be able to suspend my disbelief. http://collider.com/dark-knight-rises-marion-cotillard-joseph-gordon-levitt-roles/86714/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
