I don't know, but I was surprised that Talia Al-Ghul turned out to be Catwoman.

In Nolan I trust. Concept is on the Fn money.

I'm disappointed they went with Catwoman. The third film is all these Batman movies always suck because they start to run out of good villians.

Its boring because its not a batman movie. Its some regular movie with batman shoehorned into it. I really dont need to see the president calling in fighter jets in a batman movie. The realism aspect that worked for begins and tdk was fine but they went too far with it here. Really begins is the only one of the 3 that actually feels like a batman movie. TDK worked because the joker was cool, but rises was a piece of shit. And that awful overdubbed bane voice didnt help at all. Should have left it alone after tdk.
- Nolan is a good director but proved he is totally capable of making bad decisions.CygnusZero4
- This movie should have been more creative, less feeling like a michael bay disaster movie.CygnusZero4
- Nah, I love the realism. Batman is all about realism.nb
- Also, there are tons of boring batman movies.nb
- It's boring cos the story was boring. A nuke? Seriously?inteliboy

Looks like they plan on rebooting it shortly after TDKR. I think if they're going to do this, it shouldnt be an origin story. Is there really any need to tell Bruce Wayne's past anymore?
I think they should keep it somewhat grounded like Nolan's films, but get a little more creative with it, just not over the top silly. Do villains like Killer Croc, but try and keep it realistic somehow.
- or, leave it the fuck alone for 15 years.dopepope
- They already said they're rebooting it soon.CygnusZero4
- soo.. it doesnt matter if this bat flick gets treated with the campy treatment on bane..e-pill
- if its just going to be rebooted..
i wonder how its will be treated..e-pill

i hope only for a future making of Batman HUSH.. that would be amazing with all the good and bad guys at once..

The trailer comes out on Friday, possibly earlier if it leaks.

Fucking Bane...meh.
Though Tom Hardy did do Bronson quite well so perhaps it will be decent.

The spoiler for me was Bane's voice. I just thought it was ridiculous. I rank this #3 in the trilogy in pretty much every aspect. I think I need to watch The Dark Knight again to remind myself how good a Batman movie CAN be.

Good flick. I thought I'd hate cat woman but she was great. Bane was intense, and I understood most of his dialog. Loved scarecrow.
- Scarecrow wasnt in it. Johnathan Crane was.CygnusZero4
- Jonathan, or however its spelled.CygnusZero4
- If you knew who I was referring to, I got my point across. ; )dopepope

Check out the 3 Jeph Loeb graphic novels.
The Long Halloween
Dark Victory
Haunted KnightAs other mentioned, also Killing Joke, although I didnt love this one. Dark Knight Returns and Year One have a lot in them from the movies, although the artwork sucks. It's very dated, good stories though.
My favorite batman graphic novel, although the movies didnt take too much from it, is HUSH. The artwork is the best of all batman comics.
Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on a Serious Earth has great artwork too, and good story, and is one of the most popular graphic novels of all time.
http://www.amazon.com/Batman-Ark…You can find all of these on amazon for cheap.
- If you played that arkham asylum videogame, its all taken from the graphic novel.CygnusZero4
- By the way those Jeph Loeb Comics I BELIEVE are the main inspirations for the movies.CygnusZero4
- A lot of characters from the movies are from Jeph Loeb.CygnusZero4
- Not a huge batman fan but HUSH was amazing. F Miller Dark night returns is rad toothumb_screws

Cameos by joker & killer croc were most unexpected, but very cool.
- Lol yeah Killer Croc would really fit in these Nolan movies. Pretty much the last villain he would ever use.CygnusZero4
- The Heath CGI was awesome. I thought maybe they'd just thrown in a few old cuts from TDK but don't remember the setorrinward2
- set used in TDKR from anywhere in TDK.orrinward2
- they did mention crocodiles in the sewers, so it was sort of a cameoe-pill
- Yeah that was a little thing for the fans, obviously they werent talking about Killer Croc specifically.CygnusZero4
