I saw this movie today. Fantastic. That's all I can say.
The start of this movie may discourage non-Batman fans in enjoying the film, but everything is all really good by the end.
I may be alone in this, but I think they should NOT have The Joker as the villain in the second movie. He's the biggest villain of them all, and I can easily see him either restarting this franchise after the second or third movie. It just seems like blowing your load holding him off for the first film, then having him in the second film.
I admit, I don't know the story and origins of all the characters in the Batman universe, but I think Harvey Dent should be introduced as a character (Two-Face as a villain would be particularly interesting in this movie-arc, since Batman is all about justice and Two-Face is more about chance). Maybe have The Penguin as a seperate villain?
It might be a more powerful way to introduce Joker if they have Batman go to visit Lucius Fox, or someone, to find their home/office has been completely turned upside down, with the person Bruce is there to see being lft in a bloody heap on the floor, with Batman's only clue being a Joker Card being left at the scene.
The following movie would then be about The Joker. I would also love to see The Scarecrow use Bane to terrorise Batman. Have Bane cripple Batman as well, with Scarecrow hamping it up, constantly remidning him that criminal activity has regained itself since Scarecrow arranged for Batman to be on the sidelines for a while.
This wouldn't follow the comics 100% accurately, but I think it could be pulled off without being offensive.
