:woot: omgaaad please! mmmmmm beckinsale, even her name is delicious :wub: She'd play the role good, especially with her accent.

Also Two Face could be alive its not like they checked his pulse. I'd prefer he was but they could easily reuse him if they wanted.

Seriously? If the medical examiner performing the autopsy didn't check the pulse, it's a no wonder Gotham is town ran by criminals, bunch of dumbasses live there.

And an autopsy would have to be performed with a cop involved. IA would demand it.

Two Face is dead. If they bring him back in the next film, I will refuse to see it (unless it is a flashback).

Kate Beckinsale as Catwoman would be good, just remember her from Underworld. She already rocks the catsuit. Although i'd rather not see Cat woman as a main character, if I had to, I'd enjoy seeing Kate up there on the screen more than the other options.

I don't want too many villains in Batman 3. It will ruin the movie. Remember Spiderman3, too many stories, 3 villains. They raped venom and showing Sandman scenes more. :o I liked the movie though.:p

Only one villain i.e Riddler is enough and cameo of Penguin just for phun. :p

Batman Begins had two villains that had a nice tie-in story. The Dark Knight's two villains didn't have a nice tie-in IMO. I didn't really care for the whole Harvey Dent storyline at all anyway. I think it could have been left out and the film would have been just as good to be honest.

I thought the Dark Knight's tie-in was amazing, actually. They interwove it perfectly. To each his own, though :)

I guess my problem really lies with the character Harvey Dent. The, as long as it was, still had Dent turn bad way to easily. I would like to have seen a little bit more build up.

Two-thirds of the film Dent is this crime fighting machine and then boom he's the bad guy. And then a few moments later, D.E.A.D. lol. Just seemed like Dent was more of an afterthought that wasn't really all that important. Well, Dent was important, Two Face on the other hand wasn't. But that's just me.

I agree that it would've been nice to see him go "bad" earlier to get more of a feel of why he did it, but even before he turns you can tell that he's got something inside of him. He kind of skirts that line when he ties the one guy up when Gordon's assassinated. I think that, given what happened to him, it made sense that he instantly turned into a "bad guy." And it's not like he just killed random people -- he went for the people responsible. So I'm not entirely sure a really big build-up was necessary -- not for me, at least.

I never said I believed Dent was still alive. I said they didn't close the book so technically they can bring him back if they wanted. Same as Tony Soprano died in the finale, not technically but anyone who understands the series knows he is. Point is they didn't blow his head off or let him explode with a train.

Dent played a crucial role in Dark Knight, The Joker would be nothing without him as his entire plan revolved around that. He never wanted to kill Batman, he wanted chaos so he went after Dent. Plus killing off the one you love is enough to send someone on a rampage, hell Punisher was built around that very same idea, Max Payne too. So its not surprising that he changed from the good guy.

I think he was a great character played by a great actor, I really wish they left it more open like they did with the Joker. No matter what they do, including bringing him back from the dead I'll see the 3rd movie, Nolan won't disappoint.

Sorta Confirmation of 3rd Movie?

While "The Dark Knight" amasses a Batcave full of award nominations ? and fans of the flick anxiously wait to see if it will get the attention of a fella named Oscar ? we here at MTV News continue to look toward the future of the franchise: "Batman 3."

So, naturally, when we caught up with "Dark Knight" producer Chuck Roven on the People's Choice Awards red carpet, we simply had to ask for an update on the film. The good news is, it looks like director Christopher Nolan could be officially on the project (after months of online speculation that he was still on the fence). But no one ? not even the producers ? know what's in store for the third, ridiculously anticipated "I know that Chris [Nolan] and [writer] David Goyer are talking and thinking," Roven said. "We're hoping, of course, that they find and rest on something that they'll find is worthy to do, but we don't know anything more than you do right now."uot;

Meanwhile, fans are also dying to know what villain ? or villains ? the Caped Crusader will possibly face off against in the follow-up to 2008's box-office titan and, also, what actors will be playing the parts. Again, the Internet has been ablaze with rumors regarding possible rogues and casting ? some good, some bad and some downright laughable ? so we checked to see if Roven "All I can say ? because I really don't know more than you do ? is that I see no reason why, tonally, Chris would do anything different than he's done in the first two films," the producer said.e producer said.

As Hollywood buzzes with speculation regarding a possible posthumous Academy Award nomination for Heath Ledger's portrayal of the Joker, it's nearly impossible to talk "The Dark Knight" and not bring him up. And while Ledger has managed to become synonymous with the role ? and considering that viewers were left with the impression that the Joker may indeed show up in future Batman films ? we wondered, considering the tragedy of Ledger's untimely death, if the producers would've done anything differently regarding that character.

"We have to separate the actors from the role," Roven said. "On a personal level, Heath was a friend of mine. We had worked together before 'The Dark Knight,' but I still think that 'The Dark Knight' is its own thing, and we have to separate them. So I guess the answer is, I think we still would've done the same thing."

One of the biggest moments of contention in The Dark Knight involved the demise of Two-Face. Many fans believe that the half-burnt Bat villain is still alive as The Batman rides off into the light at the end of the film, but all the facts conflict with that theory.

* The movie novelization reads ?sprawled, neck twisted, the mutilated side of his face exposed, his left eye open and staring sightlessly. He was obviously dead.?

* The screenplay reads ?Dent lies at the bottom of the hole, his neck broken. DEAD.?

* And even actor Aaron Eckhart has said in past interviews that ?[Two-Face]?s dead. I asked Chris if there was a chance of coming back. ?No way,? he said. ?He?s toast.?? Which is not just a confirmation from the actor but also the director.

But when asked by MTV News at tonight?s Golden Globes, Eckhart had a sligh ?I think Harvey ? if he?s not dead ? is in a serious coma,? stated Eckhart, ?and I?m not sure he?s coming out. They might pull the plug on him.?out. They might pull the plug on him.?

Let me first note that Eckhart is an actor and probably has no insight into the development of a third Batman film. Even if they had an idea, they probably wouldn?t contact him at this stage of the game. But lets run with this idea.

Will Harvey Dent play into The Dark Knight sequel? Maybe. Clearly Joker was kept alive for the possible sequel, and even though producer Charles Roven says that the character and the actor are two seperateentities , I seriously doubt that Nolan would attempt to bring The Joker back with another actor behind the make-up (at least not in the third film). Comic Book writer Brian Azzarello once kinda joked ?When Heath Ledger died, Harvey Dent came back to life.? And he might not be wrong.

Lets just hope that they don?t bring Two-Face back to life. I feel like his character ark has already reached it?s ultimate conclusion. However, I could see the concept of Harvey Dent/Two-Face on life support as being one of many possible subplots which might reflect the theme of a third film.

I hope they bring the mansion back in the 3rd. I missed it in the 2nd, especially my batcave :)
And we should get a proper Bat mobile this time around since the other got destroyed? :)

I do think the mansion & Batcave will be back. Maybe a little tweak to them. How about the Batmobile. I hope it gets a little more stylish than that tank.

I'm so giddy dreaming about the next one already. If Nolan isn't making a third, he should be thrown in jail. :whistle:

    • Hello, While ~104 GB of space may seem generous (at least compared to other e-readers which have 8-32GB), I feel at this price point the device should have a Micro SDXC card slot for expansion, particularly if it allows audio books to be installed and played. I hope to see more reviews of 6" phone-sized e-readers on Neowin in the future. It will be interesting to see how they compare. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
    • Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 by Razvan Serea Run programs in a sandbox to prevent malware from making permanent changes to your PC. Sandboxie allows you to run your browser, or any other program, so that all changes that result from the usage are kept in a sandbox environment, which can then be deleted later. Sandboxie is a sandbox-based isolation software for 32- and 64-bit Windows NT-based operating systems. It is being developed by David Xanatos since it became open source, before that it was developed by Sophos (which acquired it from Invincea, which acquired it earlier from the original author Ronen Tzur). It creates a sandbox-like isolated operating environment in which applications can be run or installed without permanently modifying the local or mapped drive. An isolated virtual environment allows controlled testing of untrusted programs and web surfing. Sandboxie is available in two flavors Plus and Classic. Both have the same core components, this means they have the same level of security and compatibility. What's different is the user interface the Plus build has a modern Qt based UI which supports all new features that have been added since the project went open source. The Classic build has the old no longer developed MFC based UI, hence it lacks support for modern features, these features can however still be used when manually configured in the Sandboxie.ini. Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 release notes: Added added DisableCustomTitleOpt=[process,][y|n] to allow [#] sandboxie title markers on custom-titlebar windows (Delphi VCL, Qt, Electron) that were previously skipped to prevent DWM repaint CPU loops #5387 Changed updated bundled ImDisk driver to 3.0.2 #5419 Fixed fix Suppress logs for expected non-user SIDs #5422 SbieSvc.exe: SBIE2218/2219 error when run program as administrator #5417 fixed explorer.exe crashes in Application Compartment when Huorong Security is installed #5423 Download: Sandboxie Plus (64-bit) | 23.5 MB (Open Source) Download: Sandboxie Classic (64-bit) | 3.0 MB Links: Sandboxie Website | GitHub | ARM64 | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • I still use HexChat! Not really as ancient as the 1994 AutoCAD above my post, but I have never found anything better to replace it. Yes we still operate an IRC server https://www.neowin.net/irc/ 😛 
    • At work we still have a couple of people that use a version of AutoCAD LT purchased in 1994. This predates Windows 95 and works fine on versions of Windows up to XP. Its long since run in an locked down isolated XP VM, accessible via RDP. I did install LibreCAD for them, however they said it was just too different to get to grips with. In all fairness one of them is now 75 and the other is almost 60.
