The Dark Knight Rises Anticipation Station

They're supposed to have a full line, I'm assuming these are just for promotional purposes. They look spectacular though. I will be getting Batman, Bane, and Catwoman six inch. I really hope we get a Miranda Tate figure though.

 

I would like...

That Catwoman 12-inch Icon statue

Also, that Jim Lee New 52 Batman Black and White and the Kelley Jones Bane Black and White!
ah Kelley Jones... memories.

But Why Grifter?

Hookers and drugs for me? Thanks man.

 

New close up pic of Bane, which might tie in with some of the slightly spoilerish stuff we've already heard

In some set photos it's been noticeable

 

Bane: Ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?

Batman: That sounds oddly familiar. You ever kiss a man in a bat suit?

Bane: Maybe I have....maybe I haven't.

 

Not that much but some more merch advertising...looks like some kind of lunch pale with thermos for kids.

This movie needs a love scene between Batman & Bane...before he breaks his back.

 

^ LOL.

 

And his heart.

 

That is so sad.

[edit] Maybe Bane breaks Batman's back and Batman breaks Bane's heart.

 

Bane breaks his back because Batman breaks his heart.


Hmmm...how is this movie not like Batman & Robin again?

 

No Uma Thurman & Alicia Silverstone.

 

Bane looks like the type of fellow that could break backs while making love.

Some Bane & mask talk from Hardy.

 

So no locking yourself into a hotel room for a month getting actually mad. Good for him.

 

Some promo art, including a look at 'The Bat' on, of all things, a food truck:

Not much but Hans Zimmer talks briefly about using an orchestra for the TDKR score.

Pity, one of the things I enjoyed most from the first two movies were the similar scores.

Then again it's Hans freaking Zimmer, I'm sure he knows what he's doing.

 

I'm going to bump this thread since I incorrectly started a new thread about a topic that should have been here. I'll basically re-post it....

I'm really disappointed the Riddler isn't the villain.


There's just so much potential for a character like the Riddler to be incorporated into the dark realism of Nolan's Gotham.


I thought he would be an intellectual serial killer. Maybe a professor who hunts down his victims with style and a twisted sense of humor. He didn't have to be a Joker clone. Not even close.


I'm disappointed with the Bane choice. I understand the desire to have a physical threat, but my expectations have definitely been lowered, even after seeing the previews.


Hope I'm wrong, and I hope we get another great addition to Batman. But I just really had my hopes up to see an awesome new take on the Riddler.
