The film barely had Scarecrow and not enough of Neeson or Freemon imo. This was the problem! I will agree with you on the Bane thing though. I asked someone why they didn't want to go see The Dark Knight Rises and they pretty said what everyone who some how hates the film already has been saying, "BANE IS NOT A MAIN VILLAIN HE'S JUST A HENCHMAN" or they say that it doesn't look like it has enough action in it. To those people: just go see the film and stfu before you make your accusations. These are the same hoo ha's who were complaining about Ledger being casted as the Joker.Originally Posted by Raistlin
Shiny and Shorty were obviously dropped too hard on their heads as kids. Batman Begins was packed with awesome: Christian Bale, Morgan Freemon, Liam Neeson, Scarecrow, among others.
Seriously. I can only assume that the people bitching about Bane have only experienced him through Batman & Robin, where he was a comically mindless brute (just one of a great number of travesties that movie committed). Bane is otherwise a very dark and menacing villain, so I think he is perfect for a Nolan film.I still feel DKR will be a great film and I am happy Bane was chosen cause he is an underrated villain in the series and his portrayal in Batman and Robin was just criminal.
I actually have a semi-funny Neeson story from a while back on the set of movie he did with Christina Ricci. Don't feel like telling that story though. I stand by my statement that Batman Begins is utter balls and boring.
