Long Halloween and Dark Victory were much better than anything Miller's written.

Miller has written a boatload of crap in recent years but I really can't agree with that. Those are great stories though.

I've read Dar Knight Returns, Year One, Long Halloween, Dark Victory. They're all good but I love the epic Batman vs Superman battle. Miller's drawing, IMO has been crap for at least ten years, same goes for his writing style. While Dark Knight Strikes Again was mostly trash, there were some good qualities, same goes for the Batman and Robin thing he did a couple years ago. The best part of that was Jim Lee's drawing.

Did he ever even finish that thing? Usually an issue comes out every year or so.

From what I heard, it was meant to go to 12 issues, but ended at like 10 or 11.

that brings me to the subject of "Holy Terror! Batman!" graphic novel that Miller was supposed to release December 2008. I wanted to read it to find how bad it was, but it was never released/finished.

Joseph.

So I guess we'll be seeing him in Nolan movies from now on.  The scary part in the article is this:

Indie street-smart Gotham girl is potential shark jumping territory, if Anne Hathaway and Joseph Gordon-Levitt as villains weren't already.

I got a feeling this movie is going to be the Batman and Robin of the Nolan movies.

It's not like Nolan really wanted to do a third film anyways. Tongue

So is this a Dark Knight-Inception crossover? We just need DiCaprio or Ellen Page. Tongue

It's going to be a Nolan movie with Batman thrown in. This has happened before, Batman Returns was a Burton movie with Batman in it

NOT SO FAST

Good. I hope this means he's somebody more interesting than Falcone is.

Wait, Tom Wilkinson is in it, too?

Either this movie is going to be 6 hours long or most of these guys are just going to have 1-2 lines of dialogue.

It seems like he'll most likely be Black Mask now. I can't really get too excited over that prospect either to be honest.

So now apparently Josh Pence is playing the Ra's al-Ghul. (30 years before Liam Neeson) His Lazarus Pit was found being filmed in India.

So yeah....

Is this movie going to be 5 hours long?  There's a new character added every week.

I don't know if it's bad, but it feels more like Batman Begins "forgettable good" than Dark Knight "instant classic."

I don't know. I'm getting a pretty heavy Spiderman 3 vibe at the moment.

Still sorta hoping that this is one huge red herring and there's still going to be a calculating villain.  It just doesn't seem that strong of a story yet.

I have a sneaking suspicion (which some would call a horrible apocalyptic vision) of Batman being seen as the calculated villain for most of the movie (based of the ending TDK), Joseph Gordon-Levitt to be a complex Robin character who takes credit for all the Batman deeds (this fact being hidden so fans won't commit suicide), and the ensemble of other official villains just being plot filler.

Hmm, well I'm guessing that most of the people who are posting in this thread know this by now but:

http://batman-news.com/2011/04/19/joseph-gordon-levitt-is-john-blake-marion-cotillard-is-miranda-tate-in-the-dark-knight-rises/

I remain a bit skeptical about who these two really are though, especially in Cotillard's case considering this other piece of news:
