Okay so I just back from seeing this and damn that was good. Ledger deserves to win an Oscar for that sinister performance.
Though I'm not understanding fully where their going to go with the next film.
Who would be the villain? Because didn't the producers decide not to get a new actor to play the Joker? With Two face dead what would be the storyline? Also please don't merge this thread, this is totally different.
They can come in with totally new villian, The Penquin for instance. I think that gives them the ability to open up the script more.

But are they really serious about not replacing the Joker with a new actor? Is Batman going to go all spiderman on us with their 1 and done villains. I was pretty pissed when they killed off 2 face.
Im just glad they killed rachel. Too bad scarecrow wasnt a biggdr part of the movie. They made him seem like a little bitch.

No. He was the reporter. Also captured on the bus and he was the one on the video Joker sent. Oh yeah, he's also the one who Batman unmasked to find out the hostages were in the clown masks.

It's amazing. Especially the panoramic city shots. Except maybe try to find a seat that's not in the first row. Here, seats were assigned and I got first.

I think a possible next villain would be Catwoman. With Rachel dead they could explore the love interest between Batman and her.

Exactly what I thought. A "rebound" effect for Brucie.

Oh god her in Leather :drool:
I definitely don't know where they go next, it seems that killing off Two-Face, I really hate when they do that in these movies btw, was a mistake, especially now that Heath Ledger is dead.
It seems that the idea of "The Dark Knight" as an "enemy" of the police and public just begged for the inclusion of Two-Face in the third installment. I'm sure they had a plan that included The Joker, but I don't want to see someone else ****-up The Joker now that Heath Ledger did it so perfectly. And if I was an actor I'd never do it, you can't step into those shoes now.
Where Nolan's Batman is headed thematically I can't think of any significant villain who fits.

She's hot enough, but isn't quite the quality of actor that Nolan has brought in so far.
Natalie Portman or Scarlett Johannson would be better actors, but I don't think any of them are tough enough. At least not for this version of Batman.

I'm still not convinced he's dead. He may have been unconcious. Remember Batman has only one rule.
I'm kinda hoping they don't make a 3rd film. I can't possibly imagine Nolan topping this movie.

They COULD cheat it. But I would think they would have revealed faking his death within this chapter no? I thought that when they were talking about concealing who Dent became that he was still alive. But once they had the funeral I thought different.
