OK, I’m starting to get more excited about this movie. I still see some things that make me uncomfortable. Bane’s costume and voice are still really off-putting for me… and I’m also not loving the Catwoman costume. Don’t get me wrong, the day I shun Anne Hathaway in tight leather is the day I pack it all in and join the Village People. I’m just saying that I’m not digging it for the character.

Speaking of characters, there’s been a lot of talk about who Joseph Gordon Levitt really is playing in the film and how important his role is. I find it pretty interesting that he appears to be taking such a central role in this latest trailer. Perhaps some of the earlier spoilers we mentioned about him are true.
