Just walked by these new Dark Knight slot machines. Can you imagine Bane on ogne of these?

Pantyfire posted about this a few days ago and it seems legit:

A 6 minute TDKR prologue is going to be shown before Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol!

You guys. YOU GUYS. 

From /Film:

A trusted theater (read: exhibitor) source has just exclusively alerted /Film that Warner Brothers plans to attach a 6 minute prologue to The Dark Knight Rises to all IMAX prints of Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol. Christopher Nolan‘s third film in his Batman trilogy is being released by Warner Bros. and Brad Bird‘s first live action film is Paramount, but the arrangement would certainly be mutually beneficial asMission: Impossible is the biggest IMAX release of the holiday season. Putting a teaser for The Dark Knight Rises in front of it would certainly drive audiences to that format as opposed to regular theaters. 

Warner Brothers did something similar in 2007 when they attached the opening sequence to The Dark Knight to the Will Smith film I Am Legend. Without one of their own films being released in IMAX later this year, however, Mission: Impossible should draw in the same coveted 18-35 demo that are sure to be repeat Batman viewers. Nolan and Bird both also shot extensive scenes for each movie in IMAX, making it their format of choice for exhibition.

If this happens, audiences would get their first chance at seeing The Dark Knight Risesfootage in IMAX on December 16. That’s because Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol is opening exclusively in IMAX five days before its general release, which is on December 21. The exclusive opening is one reason to see the film in IMAX. The full scenes shot in IMAX format are another. And 8 minutes from the most anticipated film of this decade are a serious bonus.

Reached for contact, Warner Bros. declined to comment on this story but First Showing confirmed our report. So what do you think? Odds are you were going to see Mission: Impossible either way, but will you go now specifically for The Dark Knight Rises?

HATERS GONNA HATE but the fact remains: he works hard for the money. 

he’s still hot as fuck.

He had to bulk up to play Bane in The Dark Knight Rises.

^This. Come on, people.

Rebloggin’ myself because I’ve seen this re-posted all over the internet lately. That’s pretty badass because it means that my point got across. He deserves 1000 times more recognition than he gets.

OH my god I love whoever made this.

Video of Bane doing something! He’s standing on Batman’s ride, littering. That’s messed up, bro.

The Dark Knight Rises trailer features little to know information about the actual plot except for the fact that Bane and Batman face off at some point. I took of a screen grab of the two about to engage in battle and noticed someone off to the right and further behind Batman. Interesting right? Who could it be?

OOOooOOOoh! I didn’t notice that! Maybe it’s one of Bane’s men. One of Bane’s men who wears long underwear. Exclusively. 

John Blake and Bane. I wonder how many scenes they have together. 

“ You wouldn’t recognize me if I was wearing it… No, it’s a tight…it’s Chris Nolan again will revisit that territory entirely.  So I wouldn’t go by that (points at screen).  At all.  Plus I have…I mean that’s a lot of weight to put on.  I gotta start shooting in May, so I’ve got to go back up to that size again.  I’ve got to go up to about thirteen-and-a-half, fourteen stone and I’m twelve and a bit now.  So I’ve got three months to do that.”
