Hey there Dark Knight Fans, Im Tatiana carrier for clevver movies with the latest on The Dark Knight Rises. . Christopher Nolan and Tom Hardy, spoke to the U.K.'s Empire magazine in its upcoming issue about what moviegoers can expect in his exceedingly grim telling of the Bruce Wayne story. . First Nolan said, "It's really all about finishing Batman and Bruce Wayne's story. We left him in a very precarious place. Perhaps surprisingly for some people, our story picks up quite a bit later, eight years after The Dark Knight. So he's an older Bruce Wayne; he's not in a great state." . Tom Hardy them chimed in and revealed that his character will quote, "give Batman a challenge he hasn't had before....With our choice of villain and with our choice of story we're testing Batman both physically as well as mentally," the actor says. . Hardy went on to explain how Bane differs from the more psychological terror posed by his predecessors?HE said, quote, "He's brutal. Brutal. He's a big dude who's incredibly clinical, in the fact that he has a result-based and oriented fighting style. It's not about fighting. It's about carnage. The style is heavy-handed, heavy-footed, it's nasty...Anything from small-joint manipulation to crushing skulls, crushing rib cages, stamping on shins and knees and necks and collarbones and snapping heads off and tearing his fists through chests, ripping out spinal columns. He is a terrorist in mentality as well as brutal action." . And fans have been asking, whats up with Banes mask? Well, according to costume designer Lindy Hemming, the mask keeps him alive! Heres what hemming had to say, "[Bane] was injured early in his story. He's suffering from pain and needs gas to survive...He can't survive the pain without the mask. The pipes from the mask go back along his jawline and feed into the thing at his back, where there are two canisters." . And lastly, on to the long rumored 8 minute prologue to be presented before IMAX screenings of mission impossible, ghost protocol...chris nolan gave a little insight...he said, "It's basically the first six, seven minutes of the film," he also added that it will serve as "an introduction to Bane, and a taste of the rest of the film."
