The Dark Knight Rises: Gentlemen, Start Your Engines
http://sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2012/may/24/24946/ Look, I'm not saying that the above juxtaposition indicates that Bane and Batman are going to engage in a car-surfing competition for the key to Gotham City in the single greatest homage to the ...
