Dark Knight Rises Trailer #3

he HAS to right? i mean, that's like his only function as a villain right?

One would think...

But this is not an adaptation of Knightfall and It would take GIANT balls on Nolan's part to go down that road with folks who havent read the comics over the years.

I read somewhere it was loosely based on The Long Halloween, but that was a while ago.

The Long Halloween would be what The Dark Knight was based on. It's a storyline involving Two Face and the Joker.

Honestly, I think that JGL will be Dick Grayson, whether or not that means he's Robin or not, I doubt it. There could be some kind of storyline where Dick Grayson just becomes Nightwing to take the place of Batman, without there ever being a Robin. The scene with the kid drawing the bat (it looks an awful lot like Nightwing's bird), and asking if he's coming back, makes me think that JGL will become Nightwing.

Also, it definitely looks like Bruce Wayne is hobbling at the beginning of the trailer. I'm sure Bane is going to break his back.

Ah good call. Been a while since I've read it.

Who do you think that guy who shoves someone at 1:17 is? One of Bane's goons or someone important?

To answer sort of my own question, this article looks like it could be pretty right on as far as the direction of the movie. Just an opinion/prediction piece, but I'm thinking it's right. That trailor has a lot of hints in it IMO.

I can get on board for this. I doubt the studios stop making movies when they make tons of money. JGL is a better actor than Bale is anyway.

Yeah I'm thinking (and maybe even hoping now), that Bruce Wayne is "killed off". JGL finishes Bane off and a new series can begin if they choose with Nightwing, Robin, whatever direction they go for. Never read any of the comics other than Wiki summaries so no clue what would really make sense.

    • I'm going to be real, the reason that vote ended up so lop-sided by the end was directly due to my programming. So there's nothing tongue in cheek about it. Also I left PFF after the Collinsworth acquisition (didn't want to move to Cincy) but have stayed involved in analytics via backdoor channels, but I can absolutely say that the experience was eye-opening, not because those guys are unquestionable football savants and that I became one by proxy, but because the amount of information that becomes available outside of what the typical fan has access to is revelatory and also really drives home how much context is still being missed even with all of that information. You don't discover that you know everything, you discover how much you still can't know no matter how hard you try, hence my point about the NFL not being able to figure out what makes a QB good. There's a lot of AI work going into that now and even that only seems to further confuse things vs. actually enlighten the problem. In the professional realm teams don't really talk about quarterbacks as A strictly being better than B, but how A can potentially perform better than B given a specific context of C. Of course those contexts may be wider for A than B, but there's also contexts where B can outshine A, even with lesser talent surrounding them. So what good teams strive to do is ultimately define a process of how they want their entire team to operate under schematically, find players that fit that scheme, and hopefully find a guy whose skillset will be maximized running that scheme with those players. Where bad teams fall of the wagon is constantly shifting those schemes and chasing bad fits or fads vs. sticking with a core identity and developing it.
    • there is a 100 mile long list of NFL players and coaches going to bat and defending horrible play from teammates.   
    • In 6 games, we've only had 6 hurries??? ... that can't be accurate
