He's going to take down his business, his possessions, and his name?
I'm fairly certain I said no interruptions.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

My roommate and I are speculating that Nolan's actually going to take it further than that.
You think he's going to kill Batman?
Or...oh, god. Not...
BATUSI?

That's NOT EVEN FUNNY. I still have flashbacks of Little Nicky Peter Parker playing the damn piano (a heretofore unknown talent of the symbiote).

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Is Nolan actually egotistical enough to think that if he kills Bats, he gets to have the last say? Oy.

I don't see where ego comes into it at all. He's out to tell a story. The death of a hero, that's a story.

And this is the last of the Nolan movies, anyway. Next director to make a Batman movie will essentially reboot it. It's not like the Nolan movies are continuations of the Burton movies or the Schumacher movies.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
after seeing the last movie poster, I'm prepared for anything and anyone to die. I was surprised at the lack of fatalities in Inception.

Yeah, I don't think it's ego -- I don't think he's under any illusions that he'll end the franchise or anything. I just think that's how Nolan's Batman story ends. I'd say I don't see it ending any other way, but Nolan is full of surprises.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
This board is the only place I frequent online where I've heard anything about the Hunger Games movies, and I have never heard the movies or books mentioned by a single person in meatspace.
I'm pretty sure I'm the only person I know in meatspace over the age of 12 who hasn't read them. Okay, probably my dad hasn't.
I probably would have read them myself by now except that EVERY SINGLE PERSON I KNOW has been gushing over them for so long that I'm resentful of how many hours of my life have been spent listening to people talk about The Hunger Games. No matter if the books are any good or not, they've already taken up more time than I want to give them, so they're not getting read.
