“Rrrmph Emphrhgh Drhtghfml” Says Bane In New THE DARK KNIGHT RISES Trailer
The latest trailer for THE DARK KNIGHT RISES is officially online, and features some strange football action.
I want to talk about the football scene in the trailer for The Dark Knight Rises. Is that supposed to be comedic? The guy tackling the runner and then falling into a pit, the runner seemingly oblivious to the utter destruction of the field until he reaches the end zone and scores... that's way sillier than I would ever expect from a Christopher Nolan film. I'm not complaining - I'm actually pleasantly surprised - but I am wondering if it's supposed to be as goofy as it seems to me.
But you aren't here to talk about football! You're here to talk about the trailer itself. I found Bane's dialogue to be mostly incomprehensible - something about 'to die' - and I couldn't tell if the Mayor was making Gordon step down or if Gordon IS the Mayor and stepping down in the spring. Probably the first, right?
You can watch the trailer in high def by clicking here. I couldn't ever get it to work, but maybe you'll have more luck.
