15 Years of Coverage (2010-2025)

Check out the video of Bane's scene and photos from the shoot, courtesy of some really brave fans. No huge plot points are revealed, but if you're avoiding spoilers, don't watch the video!

OH NO!
his chips :(
"When the chips are down, these... civilized people... they'll eat each other!"
Quoting TDK will never get old lol.
LMAO! Genious man, genious!
I can't believe you guys are posting this right now. I was there and really hoping the extremely significant information that we were entrusted with would not be leaked.
I'm not going to be posting major plot details, but until YouTube is asked to take down the video, I think it's cool that we get a good listen at Bane. Unfortunately there's no way the information will be kept secret...but I don't want to know anything about it!
Doesn't sound very spanish....
Yeah, it sounds better and more original :)
Better? Nope.. Horrendous voice, doesn't fit Bane, doesn't even fit his physique, sounds dorky.
i culd care lessif h peaks spanish ornot.... fyi wbrothers said that he was doing a different bane..
tbhi lie this one better
Umm.. To me that was a major plot detail. Maybe you couldn't but im sure the other true batman fans will be able to figure out what he's saying. I know I was able too. No there is no way to keep the info secret, but that doesn't mean you have to spread it more through your website.
Eddy, with all due respect man no one forced you to watch it. If you dont want to know then dont watch.
Well this is a batman-news site and the only reason to keep coming here is if you want spoilers about the movie otherwise there would be no articles on this site or nothing to talk about. If chris only told us that bane appeared on the field and that some guy filmed it....we would all probably search for it anyways.
I'm not happy about the spoilers either but I don't think it's this website's fault. Chris is just doing what this site is meant for. It's the idiots in Pittsburgh who are camping out in trees next to the sets so they can record every single shot filmed who are to blame.
Not to throw Shad on your opinon brother, but he can still have the exact same background an NOT actually be Spanish. His father could have been a Brit who was in a foreign country as a political or social uprising occured... Etcetv. Bane ends up the little British boy in a dirty South American Prison! Works perfectly in some ways. Keep the faith!...and don't eat eachother over this
I gotta say while it was interesting to hear Bane's unfinished voice (I swear I laughed sooo hard!!!), this is undoubtedly a huge spoiler. I was thinking at the football scene there would be a big fight but it seems like Bane will stage a live execution or something.
This would have been a really chilling and impactful scene....and now we've seen it. Granted, the scene is nowhere near completion so the effect will still be huge (especially when we hear what bane's voice will really sound like), we're all probably still gonna be blown away by it, but still.....add this to the list of huge spoilers.
I'm turning into the guy who always complains about spoilers yet keeps coming to this site lol. I don't even know what I want! hahaha
I added a spoiler warning to the post. Sorry about that!
LOL don't worry about it. I tried not to watch it and I was successful for 3 minutes hahaha.
His voice sounded more intriguing than funny... i mean, WTF is that? The guy sounds like a 100 years old man! Venom side effects?
His voice sounds so amazing. I can't wait. I hope they keep all the crackling and everything in there. Love it.
At least we know how he'll sound like in the film so no more spanish related theories for his character but his dialouge sounds like that of a revolutionary :) very interesting,I cant wait to see how this turns out!
He sounds like a dorky English man to me.. Hate the voice, i swear i almost though he was about to say DEAR SIR, I'D FANCY CRUMPETS WITH MY TEA KIND SIR.. . Should've gone for a deeper/raspy/Spanish voice..
You might think its bad, but Mexican Bane would not work as well in TDKR, Bane is from the league of shadows and they have no connection to Mexican/Spanish whatsoever, it will obviously look better in the final film, after all, the reason he talks with an english accent, is that he was raised by Ras Al Ghul(Liam Neeson) so the british accent works.
Liam Neeson is Irish not English, so that doesn't actually make a whole lot of sense. Also I seriously doubt that's the voice we'll hear come July 2012.
I know that hes my 3rd cousin, but for batman begins his voice was to sound more english, and after all tom hardy is english, and it is probably rather hard for him to change it
I can imagine Mexican Bane coming out threatning to destroy Gotham, if he doesn't get his hourly wage as a school janitor of 1 dollar up to 1.50, lol it wouldnt work especially with Christian Bale saying stuff to him like " Why do you wanna kill me!!" and Bane replying with "Ce?"
That was completely ignorant and racist.
And Bane isn't even Mexican! He's from a fictional Caribbean island. I'm no fan of political correctness, but if you're gonna stereotype people at least get their nationality correct.
P.S. Minimum wage is around $7. And it's not " Ce" its "Que".
seriously good job correcting that moron...i was gonna say...wasnt bane cuban or something like that...and how can one say all this shit bout bane...he is spanish no matter what...wtf does being a mexican have anything to do with his character....fucking rednecks
LMAO!
accent sounds weird.but i ll wait till the final product comes out ! Thanx for the share !
How is this a major plot detail? A villain is challenging Batman to show his identity. What else is new?
He sounds like someone out of some Shakespearean play.
And what dismal failures they were..
His Voice sounds amazing...
I'm kinda surprised people are upset that he isn't Hispanic, why is that such a big deal? This is Hardy and Nolan's portrayal of Bane, it's NOT gonna be a direction translation of the comics.
I think having a creepy, British accent gives the character a lot more depth and personality.
I like it.
There is nothing creepy about a British accent.. It just sounds girly, out of line, not even rude or scary.. Want a creepy accent? African, Iraqi or Israeli, German... that's a creepy accent.
Oh my God, I hope they overdub his voice in the studio. Maybe Hardy can't talk with the mask on and they'll have him record a new voice when the filming is over. Because, that sounds awful. Not at all fitting the character in my opinion. He sounds like Alfred's wimpy nephew.
The more info that leaks, the more nervous I'm getting. I need to stop looking at leaks.
That's actually a GREAT point that I hadn't considered: yes his voice sounds odd, but with that mask on there's almost no way that's his finished voice. It would almost have to be redubed after principle photography is completed.
i heard that the voiceover will be done by bumble bee man, from the simpsons
Happy Birthday Tooooooooo Me :)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MANBAT!!!!!!!!!!! HOPE TO SEE U IN THE NEXT FILM!!!!!!! :D
They won't use that voice in the film, Nolan knew that leaked footage of the scene would end up on the web so he probably just told Hardy to change his voice.
im sorry but that was weird. not at all what i expected him to sound like. im still trying to figure out his look.
If you look at ChangeTheChannel's other videos from the shoot, you'd see that the Tumbler also makes an appearance at the Heinz Field shoot. Question... Why are all the Tumblers in camo vs. black?
Well batmans was black and Bane knows were batman got his tumbler and bane stole himself some from the impound lot at were they are kept, and the original default color of the tumblers is brown camo, batman sprayed his black though, and the brown really matches banes appearance, Basically Bane is a mirror image of Batman, he was trained by the same person as batman in the ninja code, expect bane is stronger because he is pumped up with performance inhancers, but him and batman think very alike.
hardy said himself that you can't understand s*** from him talking with that mask on
To those concerned with Hardy's vocal portrayal of Bane: This will not be the final product. Frankly, I find it odd they even piped Bane's voice through the stadium sound system in the first place, with all the echo and reverb bound affect the end sound. I bet they weren't even recording sound for Bane on that take. I've been in films. If there is so much as an errant audible pin drop they will redo the take. For a movie on this scale, they wouldn't even take the risk. I bet almost all of Bane's lines are recorded in post prod.
He Sounds Like a Very Old English Gentleman ... Maybe the Venom is What's Keeping Him Alive and in Great Shape! ...just a thought =)
Three things. First, this is BATMAN-NEWS.COM, NOT friggin' BOF. Spoilers are posted here. That's been established since Day 1. Second, I always love how people complain about spoilers that no one made them watch. "I pushed the play button, but it's YOUR FAULT for posting it in the first place!" Wrong. Finally, it's mostly been covered, but the voice here can't be finished product. Even at that, what we're hearing is from a cell phone camera. Ever tried to record something at a concert with that or a point-and-shoot? Sound kind of gets jacked. Even if that's the case, I'd wager there's going to be some post-production work on that.
He's talking through a mask so Its likely going to be dubbed during post-production. I couldnt really hear that much though...
Why does Bane sound like an old english chap on a safari in africa?
Appa pie! Appa pie!
You know what, I can't believe how Nolan Team is allowing all this fucking spoilerism to happen.... wtf??' We are a wholeeee yearrr away from the movie and every day there are details and details of the plot and filming leaking... It was funny a month ago, now is is starting to get all fuc879"d, by the end of the year the movie is gonna be is gonna be ruinedEscucharValorar traducción
First take he said "Behold the instrument of your destruction". They wheeled out some giant sphere that reminded me of a classic supervillain doomsday device. Possibly something stolen from Wayne Enterprises like the tumblers and the vaporizers League of Shadows used to emit the fear gas in Batman Begins.
And the hostage wasn't a familiar actor from the franchise.
He always said "behold the instrument of your liberation" every take, unless you're talking about the first rehearsal take where they didn't pipe the sound through the stadium speakers
I'm pretty sure the first take he said "destruction". Because the line went from "Behold the ..." to "This is the instrument of your liberation" which is in the video.
how this could be an spoiler?? everyone who come and read news at this site knows that (more than likely) Bane is going to break the Bat, or at least Gordon, now don't be surprised of watching it
Nothing that we didn't knew. This is what I got from this: Ra's taught and raised Bane, definitely
God, this movie is going to be FULL OF WIN at immeasurable proportions.
Sounds like and old Beatle on drugs
You morons, that's Tom Hardy's regular accent, he's screaming, trying to make his words trying to make his words understandable, using a mask, that voice is just to shoot the scene, there will be a re-dub of all Bane's scenes due to the mask problem
thats not his usual voice, if you watch his interviews for different movies, his accent changes very easily.
I was there, and I know you won't believe me, but i really really really REALLY think the hostage (wich can barely stay on feet, he looked like wounded) is THE JOKER!
by the way, he said: Instrument of your DEMOLITION, not liberation
Why on earth would it be The Joker? The last thing Bane says is "Why don't you identify yourself to world?" If anything, it's Batman. Or it's someone they THINK is the Batman.
Um, because no one knew the Joker's identity. And if the crowd was cheering, one would think Bane would be "making an example" of someone Gotham truly despised. Depending on the timeframe from TDK, it could PLAUSABY be The Joker. Can anyone else attest to the fact the person Bane had "hostage" looked like The Joker?
I was there and I can say that the hostage was not an actor known from the past movies, on the other hand .. is impossible to say if it looked like the joker because we were so farrr away
Well, it has some "wild" sense to me....
1) Joseph Gordon Levitt looks like Heath Ledger. Enough to have me confused when I didn't see Ledger's name in the credits for Brick.2) Although Scarecrow's story is told in Batman Begins, Nolan still brought the character back for a small cameo in The Dark Knight.
3) In the Knightfall comic storyline, featuring Bane as the main antagonist, the Joker has a short but vital cameo role.
4) According to Empire mag a studio release for DK Rises states that JGL is playing a Gotham beat cop called John Blake.
J Gordon Levitt's character in Dark Knight Rises is purportedly called John Blake. JOhn blaKE. JOKE. He's gonna play the Joker. Am I wrong?
yes, you are
JOhn blaKE. JOKE.
I lol'd.
LMAO!No dude, it's john bLAKE. He's gonna play KAL-EL, a fucking SUPERMAN cameo!
mmmm..... what about this?
bane takes the joker out of arkham and kill him infront the crowd to make an statement: I'm not the chaos, i'm the new order, this guy here, he's the chaos blowing up hospitals and all that kind of shit.... I will guide you to the glory, and to make it happen we all need to kill the batman. but of course the truth is that Bane is with the leagues of shadows, and wants to destroy gotham.how this can happen? who's playing the joker? i've no fuck idea, but i guess that is part of the "trick under the sleeve" of Nolan
just some wild thoughts :p
why do you think is the Joker??? outfit or what??
can't be the joker, ledger is gone, forget the joker, nolan said it so no more joker
the joker? don't make me laugh, maybe Harvey Dent or Mayor Antony Garcia but never in the world the joker, i think is gordon or bruce
probley gordon cuz of him in the hospital bed.....but you never no it could be anybody...... plus no;an coulb be hiding something.... (its all part of the plan) we all no he as a trick or 2 up his sleves.. for all we no it could be a dr.hugo strange cameo..... lol just a few of my thoughts
Or you are a liar, or you are totally blind................. The hostage doesn't look any like the joker , see it yourself http://www.youtube.com/watc...
hey you just made a good find, looks like they are carrying up a BIGG weapon there
that is Alon Aboutboul.
Great video. Clearly not The Joker.
he looks like Lucius FOx to me (telling by the clothes) and the weapon
i don't if you were there, but i DID and from what i saw the hostage is the actor Alon Aboutboul.
maybe its scarecrow?
Once again Batman News delivers!!
To all the people complaining about spoilers, how is any of this a spoiler?? I've followed everything about this movie from beginning to now and I don't have a clue what's going on in this scene. So Bane is talking at football game, we have no idea what's happening or what's going on. Honest to god the most spoilerish information (in terms of plot) that's come out so far has been the trailer.
As for Hardy's voice, it sounds awesome but rest assured they will re-do in post production.
Interestingly enough though Bane says "This, this is the instrument of your demolition"... Who would fit that description?
Interestingly enough though, he says" instrument of your liberation," you stupid asshole. How dare you?
