A few days ago, an audio file was leaked featuring Tom Hardy's Bane delivering a speech to the terrified citizens of Gotham City. However, it wasn't quite what anyone was expecting! Sounding raspy, breathless and to some "old manish", it's clear that this will be a different take on Bane than previous versions heard in animated series and video games. When I asked you what you thought of The Dark Knight Rises version, you voted in your thousands, and made it clear that you're not at all happy with it! Between this and the negative reaction to the reveal of Anne Hathaway as Catwoman, are you losing faith in this movie?!
Personally, I don't think we need to be worried about this movie at all. This is Christopher Nolan we're talking about! Bane sounds a little different? I'm sure there's a good reason for it. After all, I remember the negative reaction to the first image of Heath Ledger as The Joker, and we all know how that turned out...
