yes, the ultimate Batman villain is really an appendage of a DIFFERENT villain, and didn't even emerge from the comics, but rather from a TV series that started more than fifty years after the debut of Batman.
Don't be a hater, Harley is the best, sexy villain ever to be in the Batman franchise.
Arkham City fan I take it?
Never played it, I am a batman tas fan.

I just can't get this out of my head
Just a city boy, livin' in a lonely world. He took the midnight cargo ship goin' anywhere....
I was in New York today and I couldn't resist this photo opportunity.
Some men just want to watch the world burn.
Well, yes, I like that piece, too, but I was thinking of this one:

On a side note, how crazy it that we have so many trailers and teasers and musical pieces to talk about before the damn film is even out?
I still remember when people were concerned with the lack of footage we were seeing only a month or so ago. We've been barraged with material since then 
I love it! Oh and the score is slowly threatening to knock off "Batman Begins" as my favorite score of the trilogy. Didn't think that would happen as great as I expected it to be.

You're going to love EVITA!!!
No, it wasn't.
On the discussion about Dent... how did Wayne prevent The Joker from telling the truth about Harvey Dent? Being in jail and going through the whole trial process would give him so much media attention, and there would be a lot of people who'd say "He's crazy, but I believe him."
I don't think Joker knew what Dent did after he left the hospital. They part ways there, Dent goes off and kills Wurtz, Maroni and his driver, and apparently some other people though I've never been entirely clear on who (Gordon mentions 2 cops being killed) - but Joker doesn't know any of that. He only knows that he sent Dent off to sow chaos, and, as he has faith that the people on the ferries will fall to barbarism, he has faith Dent will too.
So he goes to jail, trial, whatever, and has heard that Batman killed some people and that Dent is dead (presumably Batman had to take credit for Dent's death as well) - he'd probably smile himself to sleep thinking he'd corrupted Batman. Even if he suspected Dent was truly responsible, he wouldn't know it or have any proof of it. His goal was to screw with Batman anyway - which he succeeded in doing.
I can't say that any of Nolan's movies are about real people who exist off-screen. His stories explore idea spaces, with characters acting as probes in and around concepts. As for that being bad writing - it's not necessarily. It's only bad if you have very narrow tastes. For instance most of science fiction is notorious for doing the same thing. Nolan is good at casting, so his actors do most of the character building by lending believable emotion to the story. But if you asked me right now to recall any of the characters from Inception - I wouldn't be able to do it. I could remember the actors and what they did, but I don't remember any character names or anything but the broadest personailty strokes - because that's all that's really there.
