I figured we might as well have a thread to speculate about the next installment of the series....so many questions unanswered at this point. Who will be the villains? What will the storyline be after what we saw in TDK? Will Nolan indeed return to direct one last film? At this point, nothing is confirmed, but we can assume that he will be back due to the unprecedented success of TDK.
It's funny, because Iron Man 2 was pretty much announced before Iron Man even came out...we already know the director is returning and we already know all the casting bits and villains and whatnot...but the Batman world is a lot more secretive....maybe I like it better that way. It gives us time to speculate and really makes this process a lot more fun I think. So anyway, any thoughts on where you think Nolan might take this series next if he does in fact return?

It depends, really. Obviously they have to continue with the hunt for Batman but apart from that, it's all up in the air. On a more somber note, it was a year ago today that Heath Ledger was found dead in his NYC apartment. Once again, it reminds us of how a young life is abruptly ended. You are not forgotten, Heath.

Yes....we will not forget Mr. Ledger....crazy that's it's been a year already.
Anyway...I think obviously TDK had the escalation theme, where things "get worse before they get better." That's pretty much what happened...things got worse...but I see the third film being the point where things start to get better. Nothing will ever be perfect for Batman, but I think some of his scars will start to heal, and I also think he will have a shot at redemption after *spoiler* accepting blame for crimes he did not commit. *spoiler*
Of course, I still think the film will be as dark and intense as we would expect from a Nolan Batman film, but I do think there will indeed be some happier moments for Mr. Wayne....as there weren't many for him in TDK...

Indeed. Now the only question remains, who will be the villain? I'm dying to see how the Batmobile and Wayne Manor will look like after TDK.

Christopher Nolan has shown a lot of improvement since filming The Dark Knight. The Dark Knight Rises is shaping up to be even more edgier and Tom Hardy looks to be a good performance as Bane. The trailers have you guessing "what else haven't they shown us?" This feels like an event instead of a movie to me.
