mikeszekely Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 (edited) Bane's Full Costume Revealed, http://movies.ign.com/articles/118/1185132p1.html Are they sure that's Bane? I don't want to be too critical, since they made a hell of a Joker out of Heath Ledger, but it's like they looked at Bane in the comic books, and then decided to do the opposite of that. So instead of a luchador with drug tubes going into his head, we get a bald guy with a muzzle? Edited July 31, 2011 by mikeszekely Quote

As always I stand by his decisions as he has yet to fail me and I have been a fan of his since 2000 and all of his movies. This is a man that definitely knows what he is doing, and why he makes the changes he does. Too many people didn't like the look of Joker when they first saw him yet it was perfect for the film.

And that's why I didn't want to be too critical. But at least Nolan's Joker had the white face, green hair, and purple suit. Maybe the luchador look wouldn't work... I think its the mask that's throwing everyone off. And that's just it. Comic book Bane wears a mask that covers everything except his mouth. Nolan Bane wears a mask that only covers his mouth. It's 100% the opposite. We couldn't come up with something that'd fit Nolan's Bat-universe that actually looked like Bane? Quote

mikeszekely Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 (edited) Actually, comic-book Bane's mask covers his whole face. Whoops. The only comic books I'd read with Bane were the Knightfall TPBs, and that was when I was in middle school. I guess I'm remembering the DCAU Bane. Edited July 31, 2011 by mikeszekely Quote
Oihan Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 I'm sorry, I never understood this but, what's Bane's appeal? I never really cared for Catwoman either. I saw (on multiple occasions) The Dark Knight and loved it, but I think I'll probably pass on this one. Quote
Penguin Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 I'm sorry, I never understood this but, what's Bane's appeal? I never really cared for Catwoman either. I saw (on multiple occasions) The Dark Knight and loved it, but I think I'll probably pass on this one. Honestly, I don't know that Bane has much of a following. His fame comes from being central to the Knightfall storyline, but I don't find people all that interested in him as a character. To me, choosing Bane is a way of saying something really, really bad might happen to Bruce in the course of the film. It'll be up to Nolan to apply the character in an interesting manner. Quote

I don't know, I think maybe he was just trying to find the least outlanidsh character left to brawl with. Killer Croc is nearly a mutant, The Penguin is hard to do dark + serious, The Riddler isn't much of a brawle, etc. Though Catwoman is in the film, Bale doesn't need the bad press of punching a chick in the face. Which leaves us with Bane. Quote

Which leaves us with Bane. Quite agree on this one. Bane is in this film 'cause he can kick Batman's arse. Be prepared to see Bats really lose a fight in this one. (But I don't think his back will be snapped or any shite like that.) Quote

I saw (on multiple occasions) The Dark Knight and loved it, but I think I'll probably pass on this one. Bane was an interesting character in his early appearances. He was highly intelligent, smart enough to deduce Batman's secret identity, and skilled enough to earn the respect of Ra's Al Ghul. Bane's biggest problem is that, outside of the comics, he's always portrayed as a mindless brute. Quote

protostar8 Posted August 2, 2011 Posted August 2, 2011 Hmmm, not sure I really dig how he made Bane look. I'm just gonna hope that there is a secret, cooler looking Bane that is in store and this Bane is nothing more than the wimpy non-venom Bane. Bane is really short either way. Hopefully Nolan hasn't let fame go to his head to the point where he makes bad decisions. Quote

Yes. Knightfall was actually a really great Batbook crossover story. I think I'll reread it at some point soon. Quote
Keith Posted August 2, 2011 Posted August 2, 2011 Do we know yet if Ra's Al Ghul is going to make an appearance in this last film? It would be pretty wasteful not to have him in the finale. Quote
Keith Posted August 2, 2011 Posted August 2, 2011 (edited) Josh Pence is cast as "Young Ra's Al Ghul" Excellent. Edited August 2, 2011 by Keith Quote
Omegablue Posted August 2, 2011 Posted August 2, 2011 (edited) Well I'm a Batman fan, and read most of the comics. And from my view the appeal of Bane is that he can physically take on Batman. All other villians are really no match one to one against Batman. Nolan was looking for a more physical conflict in this third film, and considering that Killer Croc isn't realistically plausible, he was left with Bane. With that said, I'm not too thrilled with this Bane. He's too short, and that mask is anything what the Bane character is about. As for Catwoman... well she is Batman's true love, but also his paradax due to her rogue ways. So it's great she's been added in this film. And for the camo Tumblers of Bane's armada... cheap.

azrael Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 So she's missing the cat ears. She's still got the goggles and the cat suit. And she still looks sexy in it.

eugimon Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 (edited) I'm guess she's still in the midst of getting the tech she needs to be fully "catwoman". I'm sure Nolan won't have her in a skin tight, purple, body suit at any point but he was still faithful to batman's costume as well as the costumes of the other characters like Joker and Scarecrow so I have faith she'll be in cat ears by the end of the movie. here's another shot of her Edited August 5, 2011 by eugimon Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 Nice, but she totally needs the ears. And cleavage. -b. Quote

Keith Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 And cleavage. -b. That's what zippers are for. Quote
Golden Arms Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 I think we're all in agreement, that she needs the cleavage and ears. I also think her suit should be skintight. Quote
Black Valkyrie Posted August 6, 2011 Posted August 6, 2011 Interesting, it seems Nolan obsessed with bikes, which I don't mind ... Akira ! Quote
