I wasn’t going to dip a clawtip into The Dark Knight Rises Viral this soon but… about that chanting

I swore I wasn’t going sink a clawtip into The Dark Knight Rises viral this early. I tweeted the fire rises thing and shared that hashtag picture of Bane on Facebook, that was it. It took 10 seconds and I was done. Movie isn’t out for a year yet and I’ve got way too much on my plate as it is without downloading wave files and slowing them down, applying filters to clean them up, etc. etc.

Except, here’s the thing, writers become masters of procrastination. Masters. And when you’re looking down at the blank piece of paper and it looks up at you and says “You think you’re so tough, I’m a blank piece of paper, what are you gonna do about it?” sometimes you back off. Live to fight another day. All that. So I went to listen to this chanting at thedarkknightrises.com

Now, is it me?  Am I really the only one that thinks that sounds like “Ra’s al ghul, Ra’s al ghul, Bane, Bane”?

Maybe I am, so let’s go to the tape…

Here’s a clip, slowed down.

Chanting from The Dark Knight Rises website, processed.

(Actually, the way I clipped it on the best filtering job, it’s Bane-Bane, Ra’s al Ghul-Ra’s al Ghul.   Sorry.  Tomato-tomahto.)
