Well, skipping 8 years ahead does answer the question of how they intended to end it with so much left wide open after TDK, though it would have been nice to see some of the period of him as a fugitive still trying to save the city, perhaps we'll get some flashbacks to the in between, we already know there will be earlier flashbacks with Josh Pence playing a young Ra's Al Ghul.

Next year will be seven years since the first film came out and since the second was set a year after the first one, moving eight years forward for this film brings it right up to our present day. Bale no longer needs to look younger and can look his age in this one. The prologue will probably chronicle Bane's origins and this injury that was mentioned. I am rather surprised that they only focus on Batman and Bane in this feature. I thought at least Selina Kyle would be a part of it as well.

No disrespect to Nolan or anything but people are wearing the fuck out of the word 'epic'. It's gotten to the point where something epic can't even be epic anymore.
