Think Nolan really will call it quits after this? This series has been so popular and lucrative.

Yes. Nolan's said from the get-go that he believes strongly in the concept of a trilogy, much like three acts in a play.

Spoiler alert !! The Lieutenant Dangle cameo is fantastic.

LOLOLOL...is this the guy that goes, "You got the wrong animal there sir!" and "Put your gonna away, you're gonna hurt someone." He crushed it.

No no, he played the doctor Wayne goes to at the very beginning. Lieutenant Dangle from Reno 911

I saw it for the second time yesterday, during the day when I was wide awake (first time I saw it was at 1:00 am or something) and it was 20 times better.

Also, I've always had a big crush on Anne Hathaway, but damn she is sexy in this movie.

This is why I kinda wish the ending really wrapped things up instead of making lee-way for another sequel. Some idiot somewhere in WB will want a sequel with Joseph Gordan Levitt whether it's by Nolan or not.

it was because of his insufferable pain. it was feeding him some sort of pain relief gas 24 hours a day

Morphine gas.

maybe, maybe a fictional gas way more potent than morphine

Morephine?

They did?

Pretty sure.

I can't remember about the morphine (isn't it supposed to be Venom?).

It can't JUST be morphine, the drug makes him powerful too, no?

I found this online. A review of the movie. They also mention morphine.

Nolan’s portrayal of Bane is another example of a successful adaptation. Bane (Tom Hardy) is both a physical titan and a criminal mastermind. While there is no mention of ”venom ”and thankfully no ridiculous tubes protruding from Bane’s head, it is implied that some sort of chemical is being administered to Bane as a sort of morphine. While it is unclear if this also gives Bane superior strength and speed, Bane’s reliance on this device is the key to Batman’s ability to defeat him. This stays true to the original concept of Bane. Plus, by creatively changing Bane’s mask to a device that keeps extreme pain at bay, Nolan complements his derivation of Bane’s origin story, both of which make Bane more sympathetic and keeps him from being just a bulging evil villain. Despite Bane being dubbed “pure evil” by Daggett (Ben Mendelsohn), and although Bane and the league of shadows are portrayed as terrorists, Nolan subtly demonstrates that even such “monsters” are still simply human beings with believable and even slightly admirable motivations.

No, they'll just reboot it.

And yes, Nolan is done. He said that before they even started filming. Was there ever any question about that? I mean, the film's tagline is "the legend ends".

IMDB is stating there is a Batman movie Nolan is producing to team with Superman and the Green Lantern to form a Justice League and cash in off of the Avengers. Stupid, stupid idea. To me these movies were as close to making the "perfect" Batman movies as anyone could have ever hoped. I sincerely hope the Justice League idea gets scrapped.

I read awhile back that the screenplay has already been written.

The morphine doesn't make sense because it is Venom that gives Bane his powers/intelligence.

...?

Venom isn't mentioned in the movie. They change the characters in these movies a lot.
