This is a re-post from the old 100 Days of Batman tumblr site from last fall, but I just saw The Dark Knight Rises and felt it was appropriate.
Maybe it’s my man-crush on Tom Hardy, but Bane was absolutely fantastic in Nolan’s latest Batman flick (that is, until *spoiler alert* they flipped the script and retconned him into someone else’s henchman to be disposed of so Anne Hathaway could deliver a pithy line, but I digress…). Regardless of what you might think about the movie as a whole, the Batman vs. Bane portions delivered.
