When the prologue for “The Dark Knight Rises” hit screens, people were awed by the action, but disappointed by how muffled and garbled Bane (Tom Hardy) sounded. At one point, it looked like this was going to be a big issue with the film, but thanks to a report by ComicBookMovie via Collider, the issue has been taken care of.
According to the sites, a source who has an IMAX projectionist friend was sent the new soundtrack to “The Dark Knight Rises” prologue. “He’s said it’s now a combo soundtrack with ‘Mission: Impossible-Ghost Protocol,’ but 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,” said the source.
Unfortunately, the New York Times is now reporting that “Warner Bros. says ‘no truth’ to reports of new Dark Knight Rises prologue trailers going out with fixed Bane audio.”
