Only thing i am truly glad about is Nolan had enough power to veto 3-D video and will be shooting this on 35mm motion picture film as well as the imax camera in 70mm.

He was also rumored to direct the next superman flick, but supposedly will now only produce it.

He was also rumored to helm the justice league movie, but he has also passed on that.

I am glad he finally came forward with a script and a direction, otherwise these stupid suits probably would have hired another director to get the film out in time.

I want to see the Joker return with some other classic villains restyled. Maybe the Penguin and the Riddler. But after how horrible they were handled in those other batman films, i would not be surprised if the director chooses someone else. Just like no robin and no catwoman.
