Bane's voice is much clearer in that video, so I'd be confident that Nolan + co would have it sorted for the film. I'm sure that cinema's will also be instructed on a preset for their sound system to ensure that its on the money.

It would be some oversight for that to be the thing that ruins the 3rd film!

Count yourself lucky when they have the film the right way around. I wouldn't even get my hopes up for it to be correctly focused.

Less shaky cam than previous versions.

Is Selina Kyle not taking into account the amount of people Bruce employs? Or the amount of useful technology he makes?

Bit of a nod to Batman Returns there with the dancing?

i really wanted to see the trailer in the cinema but i couldnt resist the temptation and had to watch it here.the trailer is excellent,it gives us just enough information about the film with out giving us any major spoilers.hathaway,who i thought might be a weak point in the film,comes across quite well in the trailer.bane looks fantastic espically with the epic chanting and bruce wayne looks suitably miserable.i just have two questions, banes voice,would they not still be working on dubbing in post production or are they finished with it? and will batmans voice be the same as it was in the dark knight or will they change it after the criticsm it got in the previous film.

WatchWolf

I'd say they'll make Bman's voice how it was in Batman Begins.

Definitely. There’s plenty of other examples of Nolan being influenced by the Burton films. But I’m not at all surprised about him being inspired by the masquerade ball in Returns as it’s a fantastic scene. I'm also pleased to see that Selina seems to be very much out for herself, at least in the beginning.

Yeah, he’s hobbling around on a cane in most of his scenes in the trailer actually. The mansion scenes seem to take place very early in the film, before Bane has arrived on the scene (hence the talk about it being “peace time”), which would suggest that Bruce is already injured pre-Bane. Nolan did talk about him being in a pretty bad way at the beginning of the film, so I'm guessing the 8 years have taken their toll on him.

Nolan said they still had some sound work to do on the prologue, but he mostly dismissed the voice complaints. They usually can't use production sound when shooting with the IMAX cameras because they are too loud. So all of Hardy's prologue dialogue has already have been ADR'd. The main problem with his voice in the prologue is the bass from the IMAX cinema and the accent/voice Hardy decided on. Nolan may tweak it a bit in post-production, but he isn't going to throw away all of Hardy's work. Personally I really like the voice and, apart from making it a bit clearer, I hope they don't change it.

Well he had a pretty bad fall at the end of TDK, it'd be cool if that was why he needed the cane.

Yeah, I was thinking that as well. However, since it is 8 years later, it would mean it was a permanent injury and that Batman is probably in semi-retirement at the start of the film. I don't see how he could recover from that let a lone an additional beating from Bane, unless it is through paranormal means.

Maybe that's why Bane dominates him though, he's already in no shape to continue wearing the cowl, never mind taking on Bane.

Thats a possibility, but he was running pretty well at the end of TDK.

What kind of accent is it? Where's he meant to be from? I never read the comics...

WatchWolf

Bane's mother is South American and his father is English. In TDKR Bane has an accent that resembles that of a wheezy old Englishman's. I like it myself.

Sad Professor

They've obviously changed the backstory in the film. Hardy's accent seems to be a weird mix of several different accents. Which may be a hint as to his origin.

Liamario

I've just seen Sherlock Holmes and there was no TDKR trailer. And I know others who have seen the same movie with no sign of the trailer either.
I suspect we'll have to wait till mission impossible.

James Forde

Is the prologue only out in IMAX Cinemas at the moment?

WatchWolf

Yes and it will remain that way unfortunately.

I do too, its half Orson Welles and half Winston Churchill, its daring and if it works in full dialogue it'll be brilliant, I'm still not sold on the Delboy style jacket but we'll see come July.

Frank Bullitt

I thought it was Alfred walking around with the cane?

Sad Professor

No, it's definitely Bruce. You can see him visibly leaning on something in several shots.
