[SPOILERS] Marion Cotillard as Miranda Tate

[TehBatGetsBraked]

I posted this in the Bane thread but since it also has to do with Talia, I thought I'd post it here, too.

This is a passage from the novelization of TDKR, from the big reveal scene toward the end with Bane/Talia. I wish this would have been in the movie. I wonder if it was shot but then edited out.

After Bane is rescued by the LOS in the flashback:

Bane balanced atop upright wooden poles as the League's brutal instructors battered him with hard oak staffs, trying to knock him off his perch. Bare-chested, the scars on his back a visible reminder of his past, Bane dodged and deflected the blows, refusing to fall.

A crude mask--an early prototype--hid his face.

With pride, Talia observed Bane's indomitable spirit, yet Ra's turned away.

If only ;__;

Why was that not in the film? Why?

I thought the cackle she gives before her death when explaining how Fox showed her the emergency flood was a tad creepy. Then she went and ruined it with the dying scene.

To reference the scar, in case it hasn't already, Bruce is rubbing her back and his hand moves towards it although he is not looking at it and she subtly pushes his hand away. So he didn't know about it.

lolol. Wouldn't call it a "cackle". She wasn't a hag...

I disagree. When he touches it, she responds to explain it, "An old mistake." And then he responds, "I've made a few of those," and then she looks at his scarred body and says, "More than a few."

The novelization backs up what I'm saying as well. That scene is from Bruce's point of view: A pale scar marred the otherwise flawless perfection of her shoulder. He gently traced it with his finger. [insert the dialogue from above, followed by:] His own chest bore a complicated tapestry of such marks, left over from the years of arduous physical training, and his career as the Batman.

It's August 14, why are we still using spoiler tags?

Shame we didn't have the chance to see that scene on the big one.

1. Everyone didn't see it yet
2. Some people are refusing to go into theaters now because of a faggot named "James Eagan Holmes"

I love how we have to use spoiler tags yet lots of members now have something spoilery on their profile, either the avatar or the signature.
