Talya al Ghul has strong footing in Batman comic cannon, as well as a romance with Bats, so bringing her as love interest/betrayer is not so off. As for ending up with Selena Kyle, he is semi-dating her in many a comic. <br /><br />Bane is not Joker. Joker plays mind games for the sake of chaos; Bane is calculating for planned destruction, in order to cause renewal. If all villains were the same, then what would be the fun? Heath Ledger's performance could not, nor should not, be replicated. <br /><br />The first plan for the bomb was to reconnect it to the generator, rendering it harmless. First, it had to be found, but then the area was flooded, leading to Plan B. <br /><br />My issues: Matthew Modine was unnecessary. I could not see Tom Hardy's pretty face. How do cops spend months in underground tunnels and not look remotely disheveled or hairy of face? How did Bats manage to get back to Gotham, with no money? The "occupy wall street" premise was stale. If Bats could have blown up all the tanks with his BatWing, why did he take out just one and leave the poor cops open for gunfire? <br /><br />But I liked Bane's voice, even if I had no idea what he was saying half the time. I still felt all glowy after I left the IMAX.
