** ComicBook/{{Bane}} in ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises'' ''breathes'' the GeniusBruiser. He is even considered the most accurate portrayal of how [[Creator/ChuckDixon the man who first thought him up]] considered him to be as a Franchise/{{Batman}} villain, [[Awesome/TheDarkKnightRises especially by said man]]. No venom, unlike how he is most known for, just hard-earned muscle and [[MagnificentBastard Magnificent]] [[UnusualEuphemism Batch-of-custard]] qualities that make [[SpotlightStealingSquad every scene]] with him [[EvilIsCool awesome]] just by him being in it. ~ @/{{Ctrooper2011}}
