The Shadows Of Knight

How Will Bane Stack Up Against the Joker?

Its strange to say, but even though it's one of the most anticipated movies of next year (maybe of all time), The Dark Knight Rises has an uphill battle ahead of it. Not only is it a sequel to one of the highest grossing movies of all time, but it's predecessors have been called the two best and most influential comic book movies of all time. But not only does it have to live up to one of the best comic movies of all time, but it has to do something else... Heath Ledger contributed a lot to the success of The Dark Knight (say what you will about the effect his death had on the box office), but you can't argue that when people walked out of the movie, they were talking about him and his performance. In my opinion, Heath Ledger's Joker is one of the best movie villains of all time. When the Joker is on screen, you can't take your eyes off him, and when he's gone, you're waiting for him to come back. In a past article, I wrote briefly on why the Joker was so appealing. Most people won't admit it, but Heath Ledger's Joker was so appealing because we all wanted to be him. Joker did what he wanted, when he wanted, he was the outsider fighting against order, making his own rules. It has been said that Heath's Joker is terrifying because he sees himself as humanity fully realized, and I'm going to take it a bit farther and say that he's what we all want to be. We want to go through life ignoring the rules, doing what we want, saying what we want, but we can't. Looking at Heath's performance at Joker is looking at the dark side in all of us, the side we're afraid to let out. After The Dark Knight came out, my thoughts, and everyone elses, went to who they would get as the next villain. Heath's performance, combined with the way the character was written, left a huge standard to live up to. Whoever the villain would be in the third Batman movie would be judged by both general audiences and comic book fans alike, and inevitably be compared to Heath Ledger's Joker. I think Bane can be the villain to stand alongside The Joker because unlike Joker, who appealed to audiences because of his rebel nature, Bane will work because audiences can realize just how intimidating of a villain he is. Bane is such a dangerous villain because not only is he stronger than Batman, but he is just as smart as Bats. In the comics, Bane set out not to kill Batman, but to prove himself superior by breaking the Bat.

SPIN THE GROOVE: SHADOWS OF KNIGHT ---- Light bulb blues

I like 60's garage music for almost all my life. I was 18 years old in 1965 when I heard on the radio "Pushin' too hard" by the Seeds and I knew right away that this kind of music will be part of my future life.-- In 1981 I have opened the first records collector's store in Montreal. In 1983 I made the Canadian Records First Edition: Home made 300 copies. In 1984 I made the 2nd edition: Canadian Records - A discography & price guide of Canadian 45's & LP's from 1955 to 1975 - 1,000 copies In 1985 Nightmares from the Underworld Vol 1 - Garage 60's from Canada : Home made cover : 300 copies numbered.
