I was surprised by how anti-Obama the Dark Knight Rises was. Bane was feeding the frenzy of class envy...getting the easily manipulated "99%ers" to "take what was rightfully theirs"...or should I say, their "fair share"...while all the while using them to enhance his own power...exactly like Obama. It doesn't swing all one way...there was definitely a cautionary tale on the other side of the coin as well...but very surprising after all the Bane/Bain Capital hooplah...Bane came off being Obama in the film. And while Romney doesn't suit up in armor (as far as I know), he's the rich guy, theoretically, out trying to save the city, or in this case, the country. I came away thinking that Obama's class warfare strategy was very, very dangerous.
