This reminds me of James Cameron with the Terminator franchise. He did The Terminator, great, then he did T2, becoming one of the best sequels in movie history, but when he learned that T3 would be made for the purpose of profit, he didn't return as director.
I don't blame Cameron or Nolan, if Nolan doesn't return as director, I'm fine with that, end it at Dark Knight.
Hollywood these days jump on the new, hot directors and pressure them to get working on sequels, sequels, sequels.
