Re: Third Nolan Batman film title announced!
The Dark Knight Rider
The Dark Knight Rider
It's worth checking out. Most of it is quite good. The best part, of course, is that Kevin Conroy returned to voice Batman.Hmm, I do recall, now that you mention it. I never saw it, though.That was, in fact, you may recall, the subtitle for The Dark Knight's animated tie-in - Batman: Gotham Knight.Even something like "Gotham Knight" would be good. [...]
Even something like "Gotham Knight" would be good. You would still have the "knight" part of it to connect it with its predecessor, and you'd have the "Gotham" part to show that Gotham City has accepted him as their protector. I think it accomplishes the same goal as "The Dark Knight Rises" without sounding so goofy.
Yeah, I find it to be a campy title that Joel Schumacher would have used. "The Dark Knight" is well....Dark and stuff...Guess they didn't go with my idea of calling it "Batman Continues".
Better than "The Caped Crusader" which sounds like it belongs to the 90s.
Really? "Dark Knight" screams 90's to me. Sounds like an Image title. I like Caped Crusader which was certainly used heavily in the old 60's show but still has a nice ring to it.
That's great if you do. Still shouldn't be a deterrent to naming A movie Caped Crusader, 50yrs later reruns or not.^^^
The TV series
I catch the old series on TVLand all the time.![]()
But TVLand doesn't list Batman in their shows listing.
Yes I agree that the title has something to do with the theme of the film that Nolan wants to explore. "Batman Begins" had the obvious theme of a beginning, Bruce's journey into becoming Batman, while "The Dark Knight" was his descent into darkness and madness and the acknowledgment that sacrifice was needed in order to accomplish the things he needs to do as Batman in his ongoing war on crime. I assume the third, "The Dark Knight Rises" will touch on Bruce coming out of the darkness and embracing his role as Batman and completing the movie trilogy's cycle.

@Pyscho Pare yes this was reported last week...and there are heavy rumors that Talia will be in the movie.
Ah, okay. I missed that post, then! Talia would make sense, bringing the Nolan films full circle.@Pyscho Pare yes this was reported last week...and there are heavy rumors that Talia will be in the movie.
Batman For The Next 30-40 Years, maybe?^ And poor Bruce was looking forward to retirement.
