The attitude Hardy will bring to the role will probably offset that. If the performance is right - and I imagine it very much will be - then after a point you won't even notice the mask anymore. The actions and personality of Bane will be far more visible.

I love it. I love the mask. It's apparent he's got some slight breathing issues and the mask helps to communicate that. I think it works so great because of that and also because the pipes and tubes all look so mechanical. Almost like they are synthetically a part of his skull/skeletal structure. He's an unstoppable machine.

My thought with Bane as well. And talking to someone I know who was a stand in on the film, Hardy was apparently fucking scary when he got into character. In between takes he was this goofy dude just messing with people, but once the cameras rolled he was like Jason Vorhees imposing on the set. My friend's description, not mine.
Holy shit at the
I don't know how Nolan and co. do it. The better quality clips really hyped me up a lot more than the first bootleg.

Thanks for the Prologue link everyone. 
I wouldn't doubt it.
Some of you who are still down on Hardy (I can't imagine why) and/or Bane should go catch Warrior. Wonderful film and tremendous performances, and Hardy brings some of that Bane harshness and swagger to the role. A fun little preview of what you might expect from his Bane performance.
Thanks for the Prologue link everyone.

That or Bronson.
I don't doubt Hardy. I only doubt all the stuff that seems to be tossed into the film. It just seems like overkill. I want to be wrong Nolan!

The definitive Tom Hardy performance that everyone needs to see is Bronson. That's some intense psychotic rage for you right there.

Probably can't dunk, though. I don't think Batman can either, actually.
That shit will ruin the motherboard on his breathing device/mask. You'll see him squeeze a shrimp in between his cheek and the mask to try and get it in his mouth.

He will drink Batman's milkshake.

Was anyone else, that saw it in IMAX, not the biggest fan of the prologue? Thought it was a let-down. I was expecting to be blown away and instead I got a sound mix from a third-grader and an unintimidating villain. A few of the
were admittedly cool, but it looks like this could be a pretty scattered film.

Yet people were calling me crazy for lambasting WB. They've obviously sent out a bunch of dodgy prints of the prologue with the whole batch.
I fucking knew I knew him from somewhere! Fuck!
Thanks. This image is going to be iconic once the movie comes out, I would imagine.

This gif will be more iconic once The Hobbit comes out.

Wait, there's a better version of the prologue out now?
It has to actually come out, for it to come out.

You're talking about gaunt-looking PJ. Recent sightings have suggested he's back to fat pappy Jackson for The Hobbit.
You should be worried about whether Bale's still gaunt TDK Bale or whether he too has returned to being Begins' Fatman.

speaking of Fatman this is what I always picture when I see Bane strut with that coat:

skate-off finale at madison square garden confirmed
I've seen Bronson and Hardy's performance was terrific, but I imagine Bane will be closer in style to his Warrior performance, in terms of it being more of a simmering, low-key performance, relatively-speaking.
