    Sooo, you're trolling then. Rightio.
    The character of Bane has been widely discussed in this very thread since the announcement of his inclusion if you read this thread, rather than starting a needless second one. With this discussion has come the theorising whether Nolan would include elements of his most famous story so tbh, we're all up to speed thanks, and it has been widely chatted on; you can take the 'smug' fanboyism elsewhere :)

    Right... well I don't have time to read the 140 pages of this thread. I wouldn't even know where to start looking for references to Batman's broken back. Should I start on page 54 maybe?

    More of 'here's a few bits from most the whole film', than much detail on the plot, which seems largely 'things are gonna hit the fan'. I like the look of that weapon Batman has at around 1:40 in. Hathaway's words...and then Bruce steps back, could be just edited to look that way. Also, who's that that's grabbed out from under the table/desk thing at 0:57, just some rich dude?

    Better than making a troll'ish post, based off a false & smug assumption; why does it matter to you so much if people do or don't know Bane's most famous story? And is just that - most casual fans of the franchise would be well aware of Bane & his past. This isn't a state sercret.

    I was quite impressed with Anne Hathaway in that trailer. Not blown away but quietly confident.

    last Nolan/Bale one anyway. I like that, the franchise will get a reboot in a few years and a new vision, new director, new Batman will be there.

    Ah, not to worrry.
    Already reports saying the next batman will be in 2015. Rumored to be a reboot. Seemingly without Christian Bale, Christoper Nolan and Gary Oldman. As all 3 have stated this is their last Batman.
    But I take that with a pinch of salt at this time. Either of one the three could be offered a mental amount of money to return ... which could change things ;) Unless of course the 2015 movie is a direct continuation to Dark Knight Rises. (So no gordon or Wayne?) Guess we'll find out the score when DKR comes out.

    The biggest question remains!!!! .....
    Whos hotter Anne Hathaway or Marion Cotillard

    :pac:

    Marion, sexy as hell and she was even hotter when she was a bit younger!

    anne is very pretty and judging by the trailer (which I didnt want to see, unfortunately it was on before Sherlock Holmes!), she will be damn sexy in this!

    Yeah, I actually noticed she was some cracking bird when she was younger. Still hot now, but even more sexier back then.

    Did it remind anyone else of schindlers list when they were raiding the apartments in that trailer?

    Trailer breakdown now up on the Empire website

    To be honest, nothing in there that hasn't been discussed already.

    Probably been mentioned already, but is that house in the trailer Wayne Manor restored? Would make for an interesting batcave in the lower foundations if it is.

    Some of it is a bit off I think, the part where people are going down that hole down looks like its the "prison", not the batcave

    I think they've used a mine for the bat cave. I posted pics of it earlier in this thread.

    I'm pretty sure that's just a rumour, that's what the mine looks like all the time. And I don't think they filmed any of the movie in Romania. I heard the batcave was just a set built at the studio. It's sure be very difficult to film in a working Romanian mine

    If you look closely at some of the batpod scenes in TDK you can see its just some guy wearing a Christian Bale mask
