So Bruce stopped the whole Batman business for 8 years?

Things improved that much?

Well his main goal in becoming Batman wasn't to stop all crime by himself, but to inspire people into taking action so he wouldn't have to. He was already set to retire in TDK thanks to guys like Gordon and Dent.
 
So we're playing the speculative ranking game?

BB > TDKR > TDK

Rises would need to have some serious fucking issues for me to not put it over TDK. And it would also need to really fucking floor me for me to put it over BB.

I've never actually asked you (or Sculli, or others). Why don't you guys like TDK? Or is it just that you like it, but not all that much?
 
On paper, yea, but IRL I Major in Nolanology.

Well it's 8 years after TDK and that'd make it 2016... so they'd be already on iPad 7 in Gotham ;)

Who said that he has an iPad? Maybe Apple's passe in 2016 and there's... a new contender.

Introducing the Wayne Tech Tap Touch. Retinal Display? Bah, hook up the cowl and you can see everything in Super HD as if you're really there... while you're really there.
 
Same.

If I remember correctly, you go to UofT, right?

If so, we're in the same graduating class at the same school and we're both majoring in Nolanology.

University of Tennessee/Texas? Sorry, way off. A true graduate of Nolanology studies and the University of Chicago-London under Professor Miles.

University of Toronto. Sorry, mistook you for the guy who used to have the Trent Reznor avatar. Screen names never stick with me; doesn't help that EVERYONE'S CHANGED THEIR FUCKING AVATARS!

IMDB says
Holly Robinson
.
In fact, that is the only role for her in Nolan's universe. All others will be deemed too stupid or unacceptable.

They can show Harley as a psyquiatrist from Arkham and Barbara as just .... well ... Gordon's daughter =P
 
I am starting to feel that JGL is not just a beat-cop...

Only appearance the character's made in the comics. Maybe it's unintentional even, and the name's just a coincidence, but maybe not.

If Blake's supposed to be around JGL's age, that would put him at 20ish around The Dark Knight. Remember when Gordon said "5 dead, 2 of them cops" and fanboys everywhere freaked out because the math didn't work? Nolan insinuated a couple years back that that might be significant.

So, here's my theory:

One of the cops Harvey Dent killed thanks to the Joker's tomfoolery was Blake's dad, which gives him a vendetta similar to Wayne. Kind of fuels the fire for all those saying JGL might be a "thematic" homage to Robin, or someone who could possibly even take on the Batman mantle if Bruce died or moved on.

Just throwing shit at the wall and seeing what sticks, but who knows.

Didn't Dent mean Ramirez and Weurtz? The other three were Maroni and his two guys. He doesn't understand Dent's obsession with the coin and chance, so he assumed that Ramirez was dead along with Weurtz.
 
After a 115 day shoot that began in England in the spring of 2011 and wrapped in New York City last November, Nolan is now in L.A. editing what is arguably the most anticipated film of the year. He tries to shut out the cultural noise about the movie: the snarky tweets about Bane's voice, the message boards filled with ecstatic expectations and wild theories. Even so, he couldn't resist taking a peek at the recent viral-video sensation that synched the dialogue from a Rises trailer with footage from The Lion King. "That one got a thrust in front of me," he says. "I thought it was pretty epic."

Damn it EW, you should have shown him Deviant Art!
 
Hey, maybe after 8 years applied sciences have discovered nanomuscle fibers, and batman is using them.... Couldn't have taken them 8 years just to perfect the stealth rotors on his batwing.... IF Bruce has some permanent injury from tdk......
 
What exactly is Bruce looking at in that shot with Selina? Her lips? Or just staring out in space?

Bane is constantly the swag-king. I say you go with Bane-Homer.

Bane's new uniform is hilarious. But he pulls it off!

Anne's gorgeous, but I think she might have looked better with shorter hair in this costume. The long hair just looks off.

Prediction time:
Catwoman stole Bruce's mom's neckclase while cat-burgling the Wayne house.

Bruce Wayne is having a romantic relationship with Selina.

Seeing Selina with the necklace makes him put it together and realize Catwoman = the woman is he is falling for as Bruce.

The scene in the trailer with her trying it on is set right before this event they are at, she puts on the necklace she stole as Catwoman.

so batman realizes selina is actually catwoman while dancing with her at a party. hmmmm, sounds eerily familiar.
 
She probably wasn't with Bruce yet. I will be shocked if the pearls weren't stolen by Catwoman. I can't see Bruce giving them to her and if he did he wouldn't be so surprised and interested to see her wearing them.
