That's good news, imo. I can only hope that the next villain will be as good or as decent as Ra's Al Ghul and the Joker.
I'm thrilled that they aren't doing 3D.
Would you prefer Batman: Rising?
No worse than Batman Begins

I'm curious why they chose to use "The Dark Knight" in the title again. Oh well, what really matters is whether or not the movie itself is any good. I loved Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World and that's one of the worst movie titles in history.

I enjoyed the original film and I'm looking forward to seeing Pandora's oceans in the first sequel. I wonder what the plots will be like, though. Do the humans return? Or will an indigenous antagonist show up?
Rhombaad said:
Well, The Dark Knight is the third highest-grossing film of all time in North America. That's the only reason they needed.
Anyway, since they got Tom Hardy for the film, I'm guessing they'll go with a lunatic murderer like Mr. Zsasz, or change a gimmicky villain enough to make him a little realistic.

Saw the new Batman title earlier today and thought it was underwhelmingly awful, they might as well call it The Dark Knight Resurrection. Go with The Dark Knight Returns (if only to stop Zach Snyder from actually adapting it) or come up with a completely different title like the last movie.

I vote for The Film Freak. Now just how DEEP and META would that be.

I think the name doesn't really matter. Nolan's doing, and he's not jumping on the #D bandwagon. I won't expect it to be as good as TDK, but I think it'll probably still be pretty good.

You know Dark Knight Rising could be referring to Two-Face. I know Griff dosn't want to hear this but Nolan said when The Dark Knight came out it was applied to Harvey Dent as much as it was to Bruce Wayne. Dent goes from being the White Knight to the Dark Knight.
So basically I think Dark Knight Rising is just more evidence that Two-Face will return.

It's not a compliment to you that I can't tell if this is serious or a seriously good troll. =)
In any case, I'm actually glad you bring this up, since you ignored this the first time, I'm going to post it again in its entirety:

Sounds like a complete arc for Harvey Dent to me, especially the death part. Oh lord, it's all coming back to me though!
Let's put this puppy to sleep once and for all:

I know, it's all an elaborate ruse to fool us, like killing the character off, on screen, in the first place.
It's like we're so used to bullshit at this point we just expect it like it's normal and acceptable. Actually, a more recent Eckhart interview suggests that very notion:

Wow, is that a serious recommendation for the story, or a serious condemnation of the audience? And rightly so it appears, even I'll admit it seems more likely to me now than then, but rather than perspective gained, I chalk it up to the passage of time actually making me forget how silly the idea was in the first place, relative to the quality of work in the film (like everyone else, I'm just used to bullshit too =). So, please, since all indications are that Nolan had and has no intention of going the "soap opera" route, until we hear otherwise, or at least something changes, let's stop the insanity (or should I say, "inanity?").
Death May Die said:Be nice to see the scarecrow consistency intact...minute cameo and all!
I could take him or leave him, it wasn't really necessary in TDK, though I thought it was a strange callback and a decent allusion to Batman doing a routine bust on a second-tier, not-quite-super villain. To really be consistent, Batman should dig up and apprehend the corpse of Harvey Dent at the beginning of the next movie. It could happen!
So, are we settled on Two-Face and Ra's al Ghul as the most likely villains in Batman 3!?
Anyway, believe what you want, anything could happen, just don't act like there's any more to it than that.

Haha, I read all that stuff before, doesn't convince me. That's exactly what I'd expect them to say.
On that I agree, and I don't care enough about it to try to look deeper (or as you say, there is nothing more to look into) and I don't want to come across as one of those die hard fans that talk about it all the time (hell I didn't even really care for the Dark Knight), it was just my initial reaction despite what Eckhart says or what he said Nolan said. I'm really not the one who should be arguing for this but its just my gut feeling, and believe me when it comes to movies, I will happily admit defeat if I'm wrong and we can all have laugh and I'll get a new custom title out of it and everybody wins
.
EDIT- Well, looks like I won't have to wait for the movie to get that custom title after all. YOU SEE THAT GUYS! NO MORE TWILIGHT JOKES, IT"S OVER!!!
(super secret ulterior motive complete, it was all .... "part of the plan")

I've given up on debating with people who think Two-Face is alive, they obviously don't care about the facts.
Anyway, it's good to hear The Riddler isn't the new main villian, I'm really hoping to see one that hasn't been used already in previous movies. Also, almost no chance for Johnny Depp!

Then why believe anything you read about it from Nolan? He's telling the truth about everything but Two Face? You're being pretty selective in setting his supposed agenda to perfectly fit yours. You might as well say that the movie is also going to be in 3D and star the Riddler.
And really!? You mean this was real:
Getting the title wrong, saying it was "more evidence" when there's no evidence, and it's in fact all to the contrary, plus making me sound like I'm the one in some kind of stubborn denial in the previous sentence!!!Oburi said:

You're literally talking like a crazy person now. =)
Speaking of expectations though, why do you expect something so lame of Nolan? This isn't Hideo Kojima we're talking about here. It's an odd idea in itself that Nolan would resort to such clever subterfuge just to ironically do something really... stupid.
I actually had this turn out for me recently, same scenario too, but, unlike here, there were signs to go on that made it kind of pathetically obvious. Hint: See name above.

Something I want to clarify to everybody; when you get a custom title, I didn't give it you, YOU gave it to you.

He's too busy doing the next big Tim Burton movie to waste time with one of Nolan's trivial movies! ...
Talia Al Gul, probable. Nolan did say that he intended to end the franchise in 3 movies, and he'd thought of it that way right from the start. He can also leave the end open with Damien Wayne coming into the picture with that probable story-line. I dunno, there's a lot to think of when you consider Talia, but Nolan's not going to waste his time giving a background for the character.
EDIT:
Just watched this new trailer for Anthony Hopkins' new movie called The Rite.

I'm crossing my fingers it won't suck, for Anthony's sake. The Wolfman sucked.
