It's a shame that these are being leaked. I have a choice to watch them, but part of the fun from TDK was the mystery and build up before it was released. Just like a night with me, hey-oooo!

It's Nolan, so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt, but those Catwoman goggles and outfit look like something from a pre-Nolan Batman, more than anything. Of course, it's just a few stills, so it's hard to make any firm judgment on the matter. I'm not a fan of Hathaway as Catwoman, though (as, apparently, many others aren't either).

I'm not a fan of Hathaway as Catwomen either, but I think Nolan is one of the better directors for knowing how to direct actors so I have faith that the character will turn out good.

Can you imagine if Raimi became a hobo? Would your hate increase?

I'd just make him fight another hobo to the death for a cheese sandwich and then stab the winner and eat the sandwich over his dying corpse.

But if the random hobo beat and killed Sam Raimi would you not feel indebted to him for getting rid of your sworn enemy and let him have the cheese sandwich.

Hate to say it, but I liked the Batwing from the Michael Keaton movies better.

This is why I'm not huge on Super hero movie sequels, it always ends up being "more more more". More bad guys, crazier tech blah blah. The Dark Knight suffered from it because the full arc of the Harvey Dent/Two-face story made the movie too long. I really hope it doesn't go another step further this time.

I really hope this movie is great, but I think Batman Begins is going to be looked at as the best of this trilogy.

^^maybe by you, but I know I'm not alone in saying that Dark Knight was much better than Begins. But in saying that, Begins is a 9/10, Dark Knight is a 9.5/10.

Both are great, but put me in the Dark Knight being the better of the two category.

I think the Dark Knight gets rated higher than it deserves because of the Heath Ledger factor. In terms of story and construction I think Begins is definitely better.

Yeah, that is how I would rate them as well. I would agree that Dark Knight drags a bit at times, but I find many of the best movies of all time have the same progression.

My only concern is how can Nolan possibly top the two previous films? Perfect origin story? Check. Perfect Sequel? Check. Sequel that is better than the perfect sequel? Hard to do... Look at Spider-Man; it doesn't compare to Batman, but the first one was good, the second was very good, and the third was complete trash. So could Batman suffer the same problem and go from great, to excellent, to just very good...

I do have complete and utter faith in Nolan more than any other director today, so I doubt he will disappoint us, but it's difficult to top near perfection every time.

Either way I am already on the lookout to buy IMAX tickets for the first midnight showing in June.

2012 should be a very good year for movies...

Based on that new poster I'm assuming that they're working in the Bane breaking Batman's back story. The ending of this one could be something special if they do it right.
