I've never read the Batman comics, so I know nothing of Bane's story. I just read the Wikipedia page about him, and there's a lot there. I wonder how much of the same story Nolan will tell. Will he break Batman's back? Figure out Batman's identity? Break down the walls of Arkane Asylum? Join forces for a time with Batman?
I'm sure whatever Nolan comes up with will be great, I wish this movie weren't a year away.| Promote this thread! | | lotjx

Bane is interesting character when he first debuted then slowly began to deteriorate into random big dude. I guess there is a video clip somewhere of this and there is chanting in the background either from the League of Shadows or the Mexican prison, he is at. I am not a big fan of the mask, but goddamn, his back is fucking huge.

Gail Simone has been doing great work with the Bane character in Secret Six.

BUT...
If you are gonna do it, Tom Hardy is an interesting choice. If he can channel some of what he did in Bronson, it could be as classic as Ledger's Joker. |
