"Without getting into specifics, the key thing that makes the third film an great possibility for us is that we want to finish our story. And in viewing it as the finishing of a story rather than infinitely blowing up the balloon and expanding the story... I'm very excited about the end of the film, the conclusion, and what we've done with the characters," he says. continue the story? the first & second one aren't even relative lol.he must mean the second going into the third; but i'll be extra tight if that's the last one. Batman Begins and the Dark Knight are connected though. First film you essentially have Batman shutting down crime, second film you show the impact of Batman by having the Scarecrow be involved in some petty crime and bam a psycho had to come to shake things up in Gotham. Third film seems to be that it will continue with batman being seen as a villain. i'm just saying, people told me they didn't even see Batman Begins & they had no problems following The Dark Knight.the only thing was Scarecrow at the start of Dark Knight & that was basically irrelevant.i guess if you want to super anaylze it, they're connected; but i'm sure you'd have to see the end of Dark Knight to follow the third film.but regardless, i wanted at least five films. I hear ya on that. I don't really want them to stop with three films either, as long as they keep making good films. I'm okay with Nolan stopping with three if he really doesn't want to do more than that. But whatever he has planned, I hope he doesn't end his films in a way that's too crazy. I guess what I'm trying to say is I hope he doesn't plan on doing anything super drastic that would kill the franchise, like killing off Batman for instance, or having everyone discover that Bruce Wayne and Batman are the same person. I'm really looking forward to what Nolan does next with the story. But whatever it is, I hope he at least leaves it open for another director to continue, should they decide to make more films after his run is over.

I think Nolan said something about not wanting to go into the "supernatural" aspects of the previous Batman-universe(s).
Nolan will NEVER put The Penguin in his Batman movie! Mark my words. I think Nolan said something about not wanting to go into the "supernatural" aspects of the previous Batman-universe(s).

I think Nolan said something about not wanting to go into the "supernatural" aspects of the previous Batman-universe(s). If you're talking about using a version of Penguin that is like what was used in Tim Burton's "Batman Returns," then I completely agree with you. Nolan has said that he will not use anything that leans too far into the realm of fantasy or the supernatural. So, your reasoning is sound. But if they took the character back to his comic book origin, he would still be on the table to use, as there was no supernatural element to the Penguin from the comics.

If he's just an arms dealer who likes tuxedo jackets and garnered the name penguin because of that and his stocky build that'd be fine. If he uses his umbrellas to fly then that would be stupid.

Yeah. I don't think they'd give him flying umbrellas or anything. They might give him a gun-umbrella or something. But I think if they used Penguin, he would be toned wayyy down from what Burton did.
Batman Begins and Dark Knight were connected, but the connection isn't huge, it's enough to show they are sequels, but in the end it's not essential to the over-all movie. can't wait though.

It's the same director, same writer, same actors playing the same characters, the same universe, and parts of both stories overlap. It's a sequel no matter how you look at it.It's no less connected than Batman and Batman Returns or T1 and T2, and in T2 case it's almost more enjoyable if you've not seen T1 because of the similar plot.Most sequels in Hollywood are stand alone films with the first film not being an absolute essential. Films like Lord of the Rings are the exception.How many Hollywood sequels are really the same story drawn out over two films?
