The scenarios in which I can see the rogues gallery in TDKR: (a) Batman is burning himself out by trying to contain the lunatic element of the crime world since the traditional mob has been weakened (by Batman, GCPD and Joker) and cannot establish order. Like there are fires he constantly has to put...

I imagine Catwoman will be doing things by stealth...like disarming and taking down guards without being detected. And taking on opponents in a fight one-on-one (not in a group and not fighting Batman by herself). Most of her action scenes will probably be escaping danger of some sort.

Hugo Strange is a psychologist. His job is to assess people's psyche. A person's psyche is develop through experiences. This notion goes a long way in understanding Batman's origins. Basically, with Hugo Strange, the focus will still be on Batman. The Joker made Batman assess himself in The Dark Kn...

Well...Robin Williams played a therapist (and won an Oscar) in Good Will Hunting and a lonely obsessive psycho in One Hour Photo. He's also worked with Chris Nolan on Insomnia playing the villain. So he's got the acting range and the history with Nolan to make Hugo Strange work in Nolan's verse. I j...

Below is an interesting take on how Nolan can interpret Selina Kyle's character: http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/TheUndertow/news/?a=28833 I think it would make the movie infinitely more interesting if they made Selina have a dark, serious ulterior motive (femme fatale). I know most fanboys w...

There's some plot threads from TDK that need to coincide with TDKR with respect to time so I would say 6 months to a year would make sense. Within that time-frame, there should be an adequate gap in which several things can be established. (1) The GPD - a task force has been formed and has gained mo...

Here's one question: Which of the villains in TDKR is going to challenge Batman's ideology of the fate of Gotham City? Batman Begins: Ra's Al Ghul - wanted to restore order by destroying Gotham City since its a cesspool of depravity and crime. The Dark Knight: Joker - wanted a world without rules by...

Ever since the announcement of the inclusion of Bane into the TDKR storyline...I've been pondering on how Chris Nolan and Co. were going to pull this off. Bane - Anyone who follows Batman knows Bane as the man who looks like a giant muscular luchador who broke Batman's back. His background is that h...

At this stage...I'm leaning toward Catwoman being one of the characters who can make Bruce Wayne re-evaluate his ideology as being Batman and the nature of criminality. I think Rachel was always Bruce's idealization of a life he could have had if his parents weren't murdered. Whomever, Bruce confide...

Ever since the announcement of the inclusion of Selina Kyle into the TDKR storyline...I've been pondering on how Chris Nolan and Co. were going to pull this off. Selina Kyle - Anyone who follows Batman knows is the secret identity of Catwoman. She is the fellow creature of the night, morally ambiguo...
