By all means, accuse me of bullying and take it up with James Dyer.

dyonsidering the sheer amount of literature that exists in support of Batman being awesome, you have a lot of convincing to do to sway anybody into seeing your point of view. It's pretty ludicrous to criticize Nolans films, but if you must, try harder. I've been watching Batman Begins for the umpteenth time over the last few nights and have concluded that I possibly prefer it to TDK. At least in some areas. To summarize, perhaps I find it a bit leaner and the emotion a bit more tangible. Having More

The only thing that I've raised an eyebrow at is the eight-year gap. I think four years would be enough, but then it's premature to pass further comment seeing as we don't know the full story. Jim's right though, it could provide us with some interesting developments. Re-construction of Wayne Manor, further upgrading of the Bat Cave. Greater accrual of weapons and equipment for Batman's arsenal. Plus we'll see Gotham's decay with Batman's absence and perhaps the result More

The more I hear, the more I think this could be Nolan's first misfire. 8 years later? Batman during the day? Catwoman? I'm getting the vibe that Nolan is moving away from the reality perspective that made the first two work. This could be a huge disappointment! Too much expectation.
eah i agree. I've been disappointed about a heap of small things about the whole production of this. filming in the day, Catwomans look, and Bane as the main villain. Hugo Strange or countles More

Speculation.....
everyone getting so fixated on the 8 year gap, quite simply, in my view, it gives Batman enough time to re-build mansion and develop bat cave, after all, all the work will be by himself, gives rise of crime to a crippling level in his abscence and Catwoman's intro time plus Bane's capacity to break all from Arkham and develop the internal strands of the police investigation background we were left with at the end of TDK whilst Bruce has to stand and watch whilst his city More

on the story reason for it
Batman during the day?
Py reasonable: BB...crims operate at night, Batman attacks them from the shadows...TDK, the crims meet in broad daylight to avoid Batman...TDKR: Crims in total control of Gotham, not scared of anything, shows of criminal strength in broad daylight, on the streets. Metaphorically, Batman's character has slowly emerged More

I don't think Bane will break Batman's back for one very important reason: if they did include that little plot line, the author of the original story would have to get a ton of money and story credit. More

| Here's a thought |
Ever since Bane was announced as the villain, there's been speculation as to whether the film would follow the comics in having Bane break Batman's back. But I struggled to figure how they could run that story arc in a 2 hour movie as it would have Batman missing for a large part of the action.
Maybe the prolgoue will feature Bane breaking Bat's back and then the movie could jump forward 8 years to a point when Bane returns to Gotham to wreak havoc again, resulting in Gordon urging Wayne to More

Cant wait for this! i'm intrigued by it being set 8 years later, considering that Bale and the rest of the cast obviously aren't that much older since the last movie but its very intriguing, maybe it will have elements of Frank Millers The dark knight returns?? Normally movie sequels try to lessen the years that have passed between movies so that the characters are made to seem younger than they actually are! Good to see Nolan going in a totally different direction. More

Not rating the first 2 Nolan Batmans highly and just saying isn't necessarily trolling - I'd rate them boring and decentish but overlong respectively, myself.
