Who's voice was better? Nolan's Batman or Nolan's Bane?

Also if you think Bale's voice sounded like a chain smoker, then you have never heard a chain smoker before.

I have, and it does(in TDK/R anyway). Like a chain smoker with heavy throat-infection almost

If I compare it with the voice of Bale in Batman Begins then It is close but Bane still wins.

I'm annoyed we never got to see hear Bane when he was angry,that was the one emotion Hardy left out.

Wasn't he angry as f*ck when Batman damaged his mask?

I kinda enjoyed Bane's i mean not at first but it grow at me. For Batman even if i hear that voice 10 more movies, i am still not gonna get used to that. It's just like somebody said here earlier. It sounds like a 8 year olds mimicking monsters.

I like the fact that it doesn't sound human but more like a dark demonic creature of the night, which is how Batman should sound. He's meant to prey on the fearful, taking advantage of the fact that criminal's are superstitious, so having a voice that is deep, cracking-like, and doesn't sound human is what Batman is going for and is what we get in the films. Plus, as I mentioned before, it's also to help mask his voice and better hide his identity as Bruce Wayne, which is exactly what it does because his Batman voice sounds nothing like Bruce Wayne's voice.

@war_killer: For a 'demonic' voice, it sure gets laughed at a lot and parodied to oblivion

So does Bane, yet people are praising him even now in this thread.

@war_killer: With Bane it's nowhere near as much, especially since he's only been in 1 film as opposed to 3 like Batman

True, but people still criticize Bane's voice just as people also criticize Batman's. It all comes down to opinions at the end of the day, and personally I don't mind the voice that much.

That said, I actually didn't find Bane's voice at all intimidating in TDKR and actually found it hard to understand him at points in the film. When I think of Bane, that voice was not what I was picturing him sounding like which made it hard to take him serious as times.

@war_killer: Agreed, it'll always sound like Sean Connery with a Darth Vader mask to me lol

I agree, I always liked it too. Never understood the HUGE amount of hate for it.

Bane's.

Bane. Sophisticated and cold blooded ruthlessness is far more menacing than screaming, growling, and actually trying.

This

Batman in Begins

SWEAR TO ME

Bane.
