Christian Bale & Tom Hardy are meaty, gross on the set of The Dark Knight Rises

****SPOILERS (I think?)****

Here are some photos from the Pittsburgh set of The Dark Knight Also Thinks About Rising Sometimes, the third installment from Christopher Nolan’s Batman franchise. We don’t have access to the pics of Christian Bale in his Batman gear, but hey, you’ve seen that junk before, so it’s not biggie. What I will say is that Bale doesn’t look like he really did the work to bulk up for this third film. His body says to me, “Eh, I’ll let the suit do the work, damn it.”

I guess this Bale working on a fight sequence with Bane, played by Tom Hardy, only I’m pretty sure the meaty bald guy that you see in these pics is actually Tom Hardy’s stunt guy/body double. But I do think that’s actually Tom Hardy in the Bane costume, with the ventilator on or whatever. I wish I could do a SPOILER for the ventilator, but I have no idea what it’s for or anything. Is the film keeping it real?

Other thoughts: I still don’t like Tom Hardy bald and meaty. He looks so gross. I hope Bane is worth it, and maybe it will be different once we see the film. Also, I’m really starting to worry about Anne Hathaway as Catwoman. We haven’t seen any photos of her, and there’s been barely any talk about how she’s doing. I’m worried.
