Yes, we discussed the "Is Dent actually dead?" question, too.
My suspicion is that he's not -- or, at least, that Harvey Dent is either dead or in a coma expected to be permanent, or something, but Two-Face is alive and well and presumably in prison/asylum/whatever. The logistics there are a bit problematic, in terms of conspiracy cover-up stuff, but I still think so. In part because we did see the body, but only that he was utterly motionless; there was no pulse-checking and headshake or anything like that.
And in part because, as one of the friends I saw it with said, if he's dead, that means that Batman killed a man. And not by accident, either. And that is a HUGE departure.
