My fear is just about the villain choice. Bane is a cool characters, but not so charismatic as Penguin or even Riddler.

To be fair, it's all downhill since Ledger died and couldn't continue being the joker.

From what my comic nerd friends have been telling me, Bane was actually one of the best-written, intimidating, smart villians in the Batman universe.  His appearance in whatever crappy Batman before was pretty much a disgrace.

Maybe, but isn't The Joker written as a sort of perfect enemy, q.m.

Dunno, but Bane actually breaks Batman's back in the comics, so he's kind of a badass.

Bane is a smart, and obviously strong character. In Batman & Robin, they make him out to be this doofus who doesn't know how to speak more than two words.

Penquin is too unrealistic in Nolan's Batman universe, and who can really be The Riddler after Jim Carrey?

Clayface or Hush would be great villains for Batman movies.

I have been mostly listening to jam bands lately (oddly enough, their studio albums). I think the summer bug bit me, that's why. King Crimson is so far and away from the mood I am craving right now ha.

Maybe they were never sincere, I don't want the truth
I just wish it mattered."


Very good work Cam, not quite the kind of stuff I write but I can admire it's beauty nonetheless. Very sincere despite it doubting its sincerity.
