I'm sorry, but Batman towering over Bane just isn't going to work... Bale is a big guy. Well, he can be. (note: not the machinist), but hardy just isn't Bane. They can try and scary up his voice and give him an equally as scary Sears and roebucks coat -- it's just not working on screen.
Granted it's a very little chunk of a much bigger movie...
I love Bale, not in a man crush way, just admire him a great deal -- but I'm finding this troubling to get excited about.
I don't know. I think it looks pretty good. Anne Hathaway seems fine. I still don't understand the overwhelming objection to her presence in the film.
Bane's voice in the prologue didn't bother me as much as it seems to everybody else.
That said, Nolan's response to the complaints makes him sound like a total ass. This isn't a lack of understanding for a complex plot or something. This is technical. If hundreds of fans can't understand the dialogue because of ADR, there's probably something wrong with the ADR. You can't say audiences should just try to keep up when the whole reason they can't is because the audio in the film is actually a hinderance. If this were another director, I might not take as much offense (note, as much). But what with Nolan's laborious attention to detail for everything else and the constant mockery of Batman's voice, this really isn't something he can just let slide. Not with integrity, anyway.
Nevertheless, I'm still as excited for this as I was before the trailer and prologue hit... mildly excited.

I agree in principle, but the actual quote didn't come from Nolan. Supposedly, it was a "high level executive" that said the "keep up" thing.
True. But he also says "Chris wants the audience to catch up and participate rather than push everything at them." Aren't these still Nolan's sentiments?
My point stands, regardless. Very poor form. Did anyone involved even need to comment on this at all?
I like the trailer. Impressed by it. Was good to see my Pittsburgh Steelers homeboy get some love. Thats Hines Ward running that touchdown as the field collapses. For Obvious reasons they didn't use the actual Steelers. But, this was shot in Pittsbugh after all...
there's actually a bit of buzz over hines ward. burt ward played robin in the tv series. although that's probably just a coincidence. furthermore, the "R" in Rogue looks a little suspicious...
glad they kept the steeler's colors. the last name of pittsburg's mayor also appears on the back of one of the jerseys.
