I don't mind a new batman personally for a 4th movie later though.

But which director would ever want to try and follow in Nolans shoes? Talk about a tough act to follow. At least when Nolan had a go at redoing the Tim Burton movies he made it less comic book, and more dark.. not sure what take anyone else would be able to have on Batman next?

That's true, but if we're talking a 4th movie and not a reboot then Nolan can just move over to the executive producer role and the new director, whoever it is, can just stick with the same dark Nolan theme and not change the formula at all. Only reboots need to redo things but a sequel can stick to the same format without issue, and in the end it works great so why change it?

I certainly don't want them to continue on in this vain. But I don't see why there has to be a complete "reboot". A new intepretation doesn't need to start at square one again.

Agreed. Just look at Spiderman/Superman. I'm tired of rebooting franchises simply to try and gain a new crowd or because sales weren't as high as expected. They need to find someone who can continue on after this movie. I'm sure there is someone that could do it.

Well I don't mean that I want a fourth film in this series(dunno if that's what you meant). I'd like to see a new batman that doesn't relate to this series, but also doesn't start at square one.

And I'd like to see it go the opposite route and be more fanastical like the comics. Villians like Clayface, Killer Croc, etc, would all be great to see in live action with out trying to make it "realistic".

What? People didn't know this? I guess maybe I just follow the comics too much when it comes to batman but those two come very close to hooking up for good iirc. Besides, as of now, comics wise, I think there's a different catwoman, just like there's been 5 or so Robins to date.

I'm certainly well aware of their relationship in the comics, but that doesn't mean that Nolan followed the comic strictly. The trailer shows that he certainly kept her as an on again, off again ally, and we'll have to wait and see if they do become romantically involved.

I went to the National Media Museum earlier this week (brilliant place to go if you love all media-related things (Y) ) and grinned when I saw this nod to the film in the room where the IMAX projectors are kept inside the museum ....

The image has a bit of noise due to the digital zoom being used on my iPhone as the boxes were far back in the projector room but if you can't read - it says "Dark Knight Rises Black Eye" :p

Character posters awesome, movie poster not so much. But that's only because I have seen the previous posters. For the general public that makes WB straight cash, they don't notice. Or WB hired summer students from a digital art school and this is the result of their Photoshop project.
