[Movie] The Dark Knight (Batman Begins Sequel)

It was bloody awesome. Each one captured the essence and almost supernatural stigma about him. I wonder though if these are part of Nolan's world of batman...

Spoiler:

They're all almost chronological, and it deals with Batman handing the Russian Mafia in Gotham, the mafia hire that Deadshot to stop him, but it doesn't work...so perhaps, they hire The Joker, aka The Dark Knight movie..? Just a theory.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Ok saw the whole thing. Wow, the writing, animation and music is superb. Voice acting is top notch and I am glad to see alot of DCAU people and Teen Titans Voice actors back for this. Excellant character development on Bruce and the action is well directed.

Karasu, your theory is interesting, and I do not doubt that the mafia or Russian Gang will have a huge effect on the Dark Knight.

My theory was right apparently. IGN reviewed the DVD, and while they didn't give it like a 9.0 or anything...they pretty much confirmed what I thought was the big point behind the movie sequences.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

It was a fantastic movie. It exceeded my expectations, and it topped Batman Begins by miles. Ledger was great too, he definitely got into the role of The Joker, and didnt make it comic booky at all, and the same goes with everyone and everything about this film. To me, that's what makes it great..it has this realism factor, so you feel like this could happen.

Who didn't love the 'white eyes' with Batman.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Eh...I know what part you mean..but...that wasn't technically what I was saying. Those eyes were more radar like, where as what I was saying was full on white. The concept was the same-ish, but they literally made white eyes for this film, which is such a cool nod to the comic.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Spoiler:

What i'm hoping is that...IF they make a sequel to this (even though, they left it just fine as being the last Batman film for now), I'm hoping they use...the Knightfall arc they had in the 90s with the comics. I think that could work out real well in this Gotham, this Batman. To see Bane cripple Batman...and have someone else take on his mantle...I think could work on the big screen. Anyone else agree?

I was speaking idiomatically.

Not to take the mantle forever [remember Knightquest?], but to show the 'limits' of Bruce, the very thing Alfred warned him about in this new film. Plus, I wouldn't want a Robin either, so I think they could adapt without one.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

The only member of the extended bat-family that really fits into the films thematically is possibly the Cassandra Cain Batgirl. Anything else would just drive the films into the same painfully-campy ground as the last series.

Hmm you think so? I dont know man...I think it would be interesting to see how far Nolan can take his Batman against a villain such as Bane. As you said, it would be easy to bring him to the screen, and I think Nolan could definitely do it And I agree to NOT bring an entire arc in, but obviously the screenwriters of these films were inspired by the arcs of the past...why not get inspired with that arc.

Spoiler:

It would make sense, because Batman is now being hunted and what better than to let out Bane to hunt him down, and perhaps...instead of Azreal or someone else taking on the mantle of the Bat, Bruce can take himself to his absolute limits physically and even mentally [try to push his 'No Kill' rule to the absolute limit] and fight Bane with a new suit to combat such a Titan.

FELIPE NO
