I like Tom Hardy as an actor, but among the many issues with The Dark Knight Rises was trying to make Tom Hardy look tall.

Yeah, but that's unique to him. He's 5'9", so not short by any stretch, but not exactly tall. Tom Cruise is 5'7" and it's hilarious when he's in scenes with Nicole Kidman. Plus, Arnold is 6'2", which is certainly a good height, but in Terminator, they make him look 7 feet tall.

Yeah, I just think it's done more successfully in other movies. Like I just looked up Mickey Rourke, and he's like 5'11" which is above average, but I'm still looking down at him in real life, but in Sin City he's a hulking behemoth.

But when Tom Hardy puts his little hand on that guy's shoulder in The Dark Knight Rises I don't by for a second that he's actually standing over that dude.

I do think he's a great actor though.
