So glad to see it's going to have Bane in it, since his image is in much need of redemption, post-Schumacher. Also hoping Catwoman's appearance will be confirmed along with Selina's already.

I have a lot of faith in Nolan and still think we may be in for a surprise villain, too. Maybe someone hired Bane? Black Mask/Roman Sionis, perhaps? The Gotham mob pretty much was left wide open and ripe for the pickin'!

Catwoman's already been confirmed, Anee Hathaway said so on Oprah, calling her character "Catwoman."

I can't wait to see Anne Hathaway as Catwoman, I hope her Catwoman catsuit is a much more sleek sexy cat suit (like she is seen in the current comics) rather than the stitched up together costume Michelle Pfeiffer wore in Tim Burton's Batman Returns.

I don't think you have to worry about it not being sexy. lol

Also, I can certainly see Nolan drawing more from the comics than Burton, especially given his previous track record.

I could see Bane in Nolan's world as the son of two missionaries in Colombia. After they are killed, he takes to the streets and is taken in by a thief.The thief is also a convicted murderer who dies in the streets,after identifying the body and mistaking the young British orphan for the son of this criminal, they sentence him to serve his "father's" sentence in the prison of Santa Prisca. For the next 16 years, Bane studies the books of the prison library and trains himself to both physical and mental perfection. During a riot in the prison, Bane kills multiple guards and hijacks a helicopter which runs out of fuel and crashes south of the border.After arriving in Miami, he is sought after by Talia 'al ghul, the heir to the throne of the League of Assassins and a woman out for revenge. after hearing from one of her men, an inmate in Santa Prisca, of Bane's reputation. She hires him to travel to Gotham and kill the Batman.

I want this movie to be action packed with awsome villians and batmans awsome fighting style hand to hand combat and i dont want it as sedistic as the dark knight the dark knight was awsome but it was too crazy and scicodic lets hope though that this movie is good and doesint go down like *Gulp* Batman & Robin.

[Freeze131]

I just want a traditional Nolan movie: awesome action sequences, compelling story and a philosophical ending.
