Christopher’s global vacation The around-the-world filming for The Dark Knight Rises continues in New York City, and with it comes a new batch of set photos. Amazingly, for the amount of leaked photos and videos that have been circulating the web, we still know relatively little about the film’s story.
.
What we do know, however, is that Batman and Bane do a lot of fighting, and the new photos feature plenty of hand-to-hand combat. Courtesy of Just Jared and Comic Book Movie, the coolest shot isn’t actually of Bane and Batman dueling, but rather Bane crushing the head of a Gotham police officer with his knee.
