Sounds Like Nolan Has Improved That Dark Knight Rises Dialogue
The one thing that everybody who’s seen the six-minute prologue to The Dark Knight (including our own Nick Setchfield) has mentioned is how difficult is was to hear what Bane was saying from behind that distinctive mask.And a few weeks back director Christopher Nolan told The Hollywood Reporter that any changes to improve the dialogue would be minimal.
But don’t worry about having to go to see subtitled screenings of the film, because it now seems that Nolan may have bowed to pressure (after all, you don’t want a story about incomprehensible dialogue plaguing your prepublicity for six months prior to releaase). If Collider is to be believed, a new print of the prologue has been sent to IMAX cinemas which clarifies Bane’s mumbling by up to 50%.
“A friend of mine who is an IMAX projectionist told me they received a new soundtrack for the Dark Knight Rises prologue,” says the site’s source. “The cool thing about this is that they’ve cleaned up the dialogue. They’ve gone in and lowered the background noise of the plane and other things, thus making Bane’s dialogue clearer and more understandable. He asked some people after they left the movie if they could understand Bane and they all said they had no issue understanding him, and were excited for the movie.”
If anyone here in the UK could confirm that a similarly “improved” prologue print has made its way over here, we’d love to hear from you.
Thats good to hear, literally ;)
