Hot Toys – MMS183 The Dark Knight Rises Bane Figure

Re: Hot Toys – MMS183 - The Dark Knight Rises: Bane Collectible Figure

What I believe (and Zizek is mentioning that) is that Bane is very like a Che Guevara. He combines love with cold killings. Bane is more real that many think (even if he was not revealed the bast way in the movie; do not forget that Nolan took out a part about Bane's forming as a character).

So, I eagerly expect the figure

Ditto.

The fact that Lindy Hemming seemed to indicate that Bane's origins were actually filmed is what actually frustrates me about TDKR. It had some lingering moments that could've been used for Bane's character instead. I wouldn't even say that it deviates from the narrative that focuses on Bruce, because a lot of scenarios shown in TDKR focus on other characters in an all-encompassing scale. If anything, it would've added more depth and presence to Bane's character in the film, and why he was doing what he was doing. For those who didn't know, and I quote:

"[The Movie is] not out in England yet, but the other thing that you should have seen during that sequence is [Bane] being injured in his youth. So one of the fundamental things about his costume is that he has this scar from the back injury. Even if he hasn’t got the bulletproof vest on, he still has to wear the waist belt and the braces. In that scene in the prison, where he’s learning to fight the same way Batman learned to fight, he’s wearing an early version of his waist belt. It’s showing support, but it’s not the finished one he eventually wears. He’s also wearing an early version of his gas mask, all glued together.

Well, if you look at the film, unless they’ve cut it—and I’m sure they haven’t—there’s a whole early section for Tom Hardy where he’s fighting and being taunted by people. He’s got chains on him, and he’s standing on a wooden thing while people are attacking him. And in that scene, he’s wearing a much more ragged, primitive version of the mask."

After the reporter informed Hemming the scene was not in the finished product, the costume designer added:

“Well that's an awful shame, but I suppose you have to cut things, I won't elaborate on it too much, because it isn't in the film, but there was another section that showed you why he had the mask and where it came from."

I actually think the fact that a film that is this big and is this divisive speaks for its greatness because no overwhelming consensus has emerged. What people bring to it, they take from it.

Very well said- so much to interpret what you think is vital and important and what isn't

Nice, I was really looking forward to this figure but I got email that my DX luke Ex waitlist order is converting so I decided to pass so I can get the DX Luke. As much as I like Batman I'm a bigger Star Wars fan.

Sucks though, I really wanted to have the 3 Rises figures to go with my Dark knight stuff. Can't have it all sometImes

True, true. I respect that.

Thanks, I think. I'm confused about who you're quoting.

BANE has arrived! To join the party!

For the love of all things holy, someone needs to start posting pics of the figure!

DiFabio, you post like a young man, nothing held back.

Bane is the true evil version of Batman. A necessary evil. Joker is just the other side of the coin (see what I did there? ha!)

Makes sense. Nolan initially had his first name as "Wuce" but had to drop it last minute fearing legal action from the team that brought us this masterpiece:

Disagree. Him being the protector in the pit adds a whole dimension to the movie that I really appreciate.

Your mileage will vary of course. You know it is a comic book movie after all and we never saw a body so...

There's technically still room for him to injected by an initially life saving elixir that turns out to be incredibly addictive and strength enhancing.
