QuoteChristopher Nolan's third Batman film will be called "The Dark Knight Rises" and though the Gotham City auteur isn't ready to reveal the villain of his 2012 film, he did eliminate one of the big contenders: "It won't be the Riddler," Nolan said in an exclusive interview with Hero Complex.

Nolan was most eager to talk about the fact that Warner Bros. had  agreed with his argument that the film should resist the current 3-D craze and instead use high-definition approaches and IMAX cameras to strike out on a different cinematic path than the stereoscopic technology that, for better or worse, has become the dominant conversation in the blockbuster sector.

Evidently Nolan plans this as third in a trilogy and then will move on. Compared to everyone EXCEPT Michael Keaton (two films), this means temper-tantrum-prone Christian Bale will have more turns at the Batman role than anyone.

I like Bale. He's really, really, really intense, but if fits certain types of movies well. I don't ever really see him doing a Mel Brooks or an Appatow movie, but that's OK.
