The Prologue & the trailer are both amazing!!! I am seriously excited. Even Anne looked excited by it (i.e. she was tired of me talking about it & was glad to see I wasn't makinng it all up .

[RossS]

Sweeeet!
The only bad thing about this so far is that it is the last one...

Nice! I wish we'd get to see Anne in action as Catwoman but I'd venture to say we'll probably get another trailer sometime in the spring/early summer. My guess is with Wrath of the Titans or Dark Shadows.

So has anybody noticed the shot of what appears to be Bruce Wayne with a walking stick reflected in that cloche..?

Yes, also that's Bruce Bane is talking to when he says "When Gotham is ashes, you have my permission to die". Also the scene where everyone is chanting that's Bruce who says "what does that mean?". If you look he's got grey hair on his temples. I think Bane messes him up real bad then he goes back to where he trained with Ra's to get better, possibly even Lazarus pit?

Doubt well see the inclusion of the Lazerus pit, it doesn't really sound like something that would fit into the Nolan Bat-verse.

Maybe, but I don't think there's another big jump in time after Bane first shows up.

From what the guy says to Mathew Modine, it seems as though Gotham has been peaceful for some time, so I'm assuming that's the 8-year jump that we've heard about - 8 years of peace in Gotham, post Dark Knight.

Yes - that appeared to be a beaten, unmasked Bruce Wayne laying at Bane's feet.

Yeah - it was definitely a unique room he and Alfred have that discussion in.

That's a good point. Can't wait to find out. Only 6 months away...

He also appears to be using a walking stick during the party scene they show bits of (if you look closely he's leaning on it when he's talking to Marion Cotillard).

Maybe a lasting side-effect of the fall he takes at the end of TDK?

[steveuk]

Maybe, but he's not that busted up at the end of TDK? I think it's more likely to be a new injury than an old one.

That's a good catch. I wonder if he's just a beaten man from being Batman for so long it just takes a toll on his body. I am beyond excited to see what happens in this movie.

[Ulf Imwiehe]

Maybe it's simply part of his disguise?

[kieranbeech]

Gets injured like this? then Rises, hence the title, always been my thoughts anyway.

It does remain the best reason for including Bane.

[kieranbeech]

It does remain the best reason for including Bane.

It's also quite simple but good story telling, I'm sure there maybe one or two suprises and suspense moments but over the course of the two previous films the plots have been relevatively simple, but highly effective in the way they've been told.

My computer just got a brain aneurysm when it tried to play that trailer on the Apple page.

Then here it is in all its YouTubey goodness:

[Ulf Imwiehe]

I have a feeling that Alfred’s little monologue might refer to his failure to protect Bruce Wayne from becoming something like Batman in the first place…
