Nolan's Batman 3 Title
Batman sequel 'Rises' again
LOS ANGELES - THE next Batman sequel has a title: The Dark Knight Rises. Distributor Warner Bros. confirmed the name for director Christopher Nolan's third adventure about the DC Comics vigilante hero, which follows Batman Begins in 2005 and The Dark Knight in 2008. The Dark Knight Rises is due in theaters July 20, 2012. Bucking Hollywood's current wave of 3-D movies, Nolan is not planning to shoot the film in 3-D. Warner Bros had agreed with Nolan's argument that the sequel should resist the 3-D craze, the director told the Los Angeles Times' Hero Complex blog, which first reported the title. Nolan would not reveal what villain might appear in The Dark Knight Rises, but he said it would not be the Riddler, one of the key bad guys in the comics and past film and TV Batman tales. Earlier this year, Nolan said he would not resurrect the Joker, the cackling villain played by Heath Ledger in The Dark Knight. Ledger won the supporting-actor Academy Award for the role, a year after he died of an accidental overdose of prescription drugs. -- AP |

It's above-average, IMO. Great spectacle and good performances (especially from Anne Hathaway and Tom Hardy). Issues with pacing abound, however. And so much of the film is included only to set up twists.
I think that, on ideological grounds, it's a stronger film than The Dark Knight. TDK has many of the same problems on the filmmaking side as TDKR, but it was more difficult to notice them because of how magnetizing Heath Ledger was. TDR did not hold up to repeated viewings for me, though. My ranking of the trilogy? Best: Batman Begins 2nd Best: The Dark Knight Rises 3rd Best: The Dark Knight |

To Hell with all of you who've seen it already!
I'm going to see it in exactly 12 hours. Was it better than Avengers?

It'll be at least a week until I can make it to the theaters. I think I'll revisit The Dark Knight on DVD tonight.
