Oh my gosh, you're right! And Talia Al-Ghul sounded just like that little gnome guy in the observatory.

G4 was playing Batman and Robin last night, presumably to remind us all of Batman's greatest enemy: Joel Schumacher.

Honestly, if people haven't seen the movie already, they probably don't care that Catwoman turns out to be Talia Al Ghul.

Actually I thought Bane's voice sounded like Gert Frobe as Goldfinger.

The weirdest thing about this is that in watching Inception over the weekend -- it's playing on HBO -- That's actually about 94% Tom Hardy's voice. In the seen in the Mumbasa cafe where Eames makes Cobb's tail from Kobol, he's got that weird honeyed rasp. If you close your eyes, it's not a far leap to Bane.

I got more of a Deckard Cain vibe from Bane.
