That line could have easily been in relation to Batman's current situation: he was taking the fall for everything Harvey did, thus becoming the 'villain'.

I doubt Two-Face will be the main villain of the next movie since Nolan has said in interviews he wants to focus on Batman villains that haven't gotten much attention movies-wise (which is a shame because I would've loved to see his take on the Riddler).

As far as Dent, I figured they just held the "funeral" to keep his "white knight" image and secretly stuck the real Dent in Arkham.

No one ever dies in movies.

I haven't read a ton of Batman comics, mostly just the landmark graphic novels like Dark Knight Returns, Long Halloween, etc. But isn't Ra's al Ghul, like, immortal? While it seems less likely they'd bring him back for another film, based purely on the characters, I think it's more likely he'd be alive than Two Face.

That's even more true about comics.

Yeah, he's basically immortal. Mostly. Kind of. I don't think he would survive a train crash without some special means, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him in the future.

Now that you bring it up...I heard a rumor around the time of the Schumacher films that they would bring back the Joker in that series of films, with those rumors even going as far as stating that Jack Nicholson would reprise that very role, though I'm glad that rumor never came to life; Schumacher would've screwed up the Joker's character the way he screwed up the two films he directed. Under Schumacher, we would basically be seeing the Joker from that 60s TV series.

I'm surprised Batman didn't dance in those movies.
