Score Your Week | Batman “Theme”
After reading a seemingly bogus plot summary for the 3rd film in Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy, The Dark Knight Rises this morning my thoughts were aflutter with The Caped Crusader. Tim Burton’s 1989 movie Batman was the 2nd film I ever remember seeing, after that summer’s earlier Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. I was four years old, but I still remember vividly the opening of the picture like it were yesterday. The camera pans over a sharp and foreboding structure as the music of Burton’s frequent collaborator, composer Danny Elfman kicks in…

When Nolan speaks we listen.
The official title for Batman 3 is The Dark Knight Rises, and if that’s not enough to get your gears turning Director Christopher Nolan also revealed in the interview with Geoff Boucher at Hero Complex that The Riddler WON’T be the main villain in the film. This is as we know a huge amount of information coming from the notoriously secretive director, and may be biggest news surrounding the film we receive in a while.
As for the title itself I was personally hoping for Legends of the Dark Knight, but The Dark Knight Rises implies even more that the film is the final installment in the trilogy, and that Batman/Bruce Wayne will “rise” above the grim circumstances he found himself at in the end of The Dark Knight. What situation and/or character will help him overcome this in Rises? Could it be the new female lead they have started casting? The comic basis for The Dark Knight was The Long Halloween, could it’s follow up Dark Victory featuring a young Robin character help Bruce overcome his darkness? Or could simply defeating a new villain possibly played by the recently cast Tom Hardy serve the same purpose? One things for sure, it’s a great time to be a Batman fan. Thanks again Mr. Nolan.
