Sorry Bryan, but I seriously disagree. I liked the character and thought it was probably the best of the Batman films...

ChrisMC

Dark Knight is still better, I think, but I loved Bane. I understood the voice fine, and it's tons of fun to impersonate at work.

Maybe as far as villains go Chris, but for story, I enjoyed Rises a bit more than Dark Knight. Bane is a classic villain, and like I said, not sure why so many are hating on him.

Meds

I could understand every word of Bane, never had a problem with his voice at all. I'm not a fan of the Joker (simply NOT the Joker from the comic) although i enjoyed Dark Knight i thought Tom Hardy was a better presence.

I do wonder how this movie would have played out had Heath Ledger not died. Would the Joker have played a role in it? Tom Hardy has become quite the badass since his days of being emo young Picard.

Fully agree Meds! I'm not a fan of the Joker character either, although Heath Ledger did an awesome job, but I like Bane, and I think Tom Hardy is awesome. Like I said...too many haters out there! :)

Meds

Yeah check him out as Bronson. (saying that i thought he stole every scene he was in in Inception)

My only problem was that in the end, Bane was a henchman for somebody...sort of marginalized him. But as far as a physical threat for Batman, he was quite scary.

I saw Bronson, that was a crazy movie. And he was great in Inception.

I think had Heath Ledger lived, we would have seen a Batman 3 much closer to the Frank Miller story "Dark Knight Returns" (less the Superman angle of course) and Bane wouldn't have been in it at all.

Please tell me there's an old Dark Knight thread where this debate can go and die!   :old_bash:

I don't think Bry likes Bane ;)

Actually Ilike Tom Hardy well enough, I think he was great as Shinzon but Shinzon was poorly written and conceived. And like that, we are back on Trek! :)

And Al does. Kevin and I hardly constitute "EVERYBODY". LOL!
