I dunno, I think Nolan could be enticed if somebody figured out a way to use CGI to make his movies more boring and pretentious.

Would be funny if JGL's role turns out to be Bane san's mask, thus explaining why Hardy doesn't look all that big.
I think Bane's "venom" will end up being something that gives him a constant adrenaline rush so he's completely relentless, without fear and doesn't feel pain.

Hmm...now I'm guessing that the venom will come from the League of Shadows.

Probably a component is the blue flower which also was used to comprise Scarecrow's fear toxin (IIRC since it had some of the same effects). Maybe they they found a way to reverse it...

You never really realize how silly the Batman outfit looks until you see it in normal lighting. Kudos to the various cinematographers over the years who made him look all cool and menacing.

it is just fake snow, like you would buy at a craft store for a Christmas display. I know because i walked through "Gotham" on my way to Quiznos today and that shit was every where. my coworker planned to scoop some up and sell it on ebay...

Everything in movies is always polished.

Same thing with Spider-Man...his suit in real life is stupid looking, but in the movies it looks cool.

I think it's part of a musical dream sequence. Batman decides to sing the song they use in the Arkham City video game trailer.

Either that or it's the long rumored sequence where Batman goes emo and starts a little sing and dance number and wows the crowd.

Wouldn't he be wearing green screen clothing then?

agreed.

If you don't want spoilers - stay out of the thread about the movie you don't want to be spoiled on.

I dunno...Wally's kind of a big guy, at least...he looks it from the pics. I don't think he'd take that shit too kindly.

Um... what? The pictures are spoilers. I think we can all agree that spoilers are a bad thing before the movie comes out.

So it's easy for people to add spoiler tags to their own words which are full of speculation but it's not okay for people to add them to fucking pictures?

What exactly do you think the purpose of the spoiler tags are?
