Dark Knight Rises! Why I am losing faith! Do you agree?

I think they are hiring way to many people, The cast is already pretty big with Christian bale, Gary Oldman, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman, and then add Tom Hardy, Anne Hathaway, Marion Cotillard, and now Joseph Gordon-Levitt. I feel like there going the same route as Spiderman 3, to many bad guys, to many characters, to many story lines.
