Big news from the Batman camp in today’s L.A. Times: Christopher Nolan has revealed the name of the third film in his Gotham City trilogy. In July 2012, we’ll be queuing for The Dark Knight Rises.

EDIT: Anyone who plans to reveal details of the film as it approaches, pleases use the
tags. Thanks!

Can't wait to hear who the villian will be.


I hope they keep it simple like they've been doing and don't try to stuff 5 villians into the mix as seems to be more and more common with superhero sequels.

I'm confident Christopher Nolan will be smarter than that.

Funky title. I wasn't expecting it to be so similar to the last one.

Yeah, I also hate the title...sounds too much like either a cooking show or a porn movie. I'd have preferred something like GOTHAM KNIGHTS, GOTHAM CITY, or SHADOW OF THE BAT (which I think is a comic book title, but still better than RISES).

I'm sure both Nolan and Bale have a clause somewhere in their contracts against anything involving robin one way or another

Wasn't Bale quoted as saying that, contractual obligation be damned, if they tried to put Robin in one of these movie's he'd chain himself to a pole and force them to shoot the movie around him? Something like that, I think. Sounds like something he'd do.

I won't be surprised at all if he's one of the next big celebrity mug shots we see.

...As long as a great actor(tress?) is that villain, I don't care who Batman is gonna have to fight this time.

Something about the title, combined with the ending of TDK, has me wondering if maybe we'll see the rise of Harvey Dent as Two-Face. I cant recall if it was definitive or not that he was dead at the end of TDK, can anyone else?


If not.. I'd like a realistic take on Mr. Freeze personally, something to erase the memory of Arnie as him.

Agree with Fenian, and it would be about time too since we have yet to see those fruitfully in live action.


I can't wait for this, but I must say I'm not a fan of the title syntax, "The Dark Knight Rises". verb + noun sounds better than noun + verb for a movie title.


Rise of the Dark Knight


The Dark Knight Returns

Return of the Dark Knight


The Dark Knight Rebirths

Rebirth of the Dark Knight

I like the title well enough. I care more that the creative team gives us another phenomenon like TDK. Not sure how they can do it, but that's why I'm not part of their team...

Rise of the Dark Knight

Return of the Dark Knight


The Dark Knight Rebirths

Rebirth of the Dark Knight

time for a grammar lesson



none of those titles represent 'verb followed by noun'





I wonder how badly they want to do another film with the Joker, the vauge ending of what happens to the Joker when the SWAT time finds him dangling kind of left them open to have him escape again for another film.

Yeah, like the catastrophe that was Spiderman 3 where there was too much crammed into one movie.


I wouldn't mind seeing the Scarecrow return with a more prominent role. Cillian Murphy did a great job and is one of my favorite actors.

While the title may not be spectacular, it follows in the same line as the first two films...


Batman Begins x The Dark Knight = The Dark Knight + verb
