Heath Ledger did some really amazing things as Joker in The Dark Knight. Really. Amazing. Things. People who never dreamed of watching a Batman movie flocked to theaters knowing that Ledger's performance would absolutely freak them out. But the tragic death of Heath Ledger has left many wondering which direction the Batman movies will take and if they will live up to TDK. Don't fear. Director Christopher Nolan knows best.

The end is nigh.

In a recent interview with the LA Times, Nolan made it clear that his third Batman film would be his last. “Without getting into specifics, the key thing that makes the third film a great possibility for us is that we want to finish our story,” he said. “And in viewing it as the finishing of a story rather than infinitely blowing up the balloon and expanding the story.” Christopher Nolan knew he scored big with his first two Batman films. And it's time to go out on top. Hey look, this is perfectly fine with me. Yes, I will miss Nolan as head honcho of the Batman films, but all good things must come to end. Christopher's brother, Johnathan Nolan, is working on the script right now. Christopher couldn't drop any hints on the script, but he was kind enough to let us know that the villain for the movie will be.................... NOT Mr. Freeze. Thanks Chris. ;)

Rest assured, we can count on Nolan to deliver. When has he not? He, his brother, and Goyer (helped on story) are taking their time to make sure fans get exactly what they want. What's it gonna be? The death of Bruce Wayne? A segue to JLA? Who knows. Who cares. Bring it Nolan.
