Batman Will Be Rebooted

Starbreaker · March 30 2011, 05:15 PM

That's right. After The Dark Knight Rises, there are already plans for Christopher Nolan to stay on as a producer and let someone else have a crack at Batman. I agree with article though... we don't need another origin story.

To the Bat-link!

Good.

Don't care. I got what I wanted with Begins and TDK.

This news neither shocks or bothers me in any way. The Hollywood wheel keeps on churnin'.

Hollywood stop rebooting everything right away FFS.

Third movie isn't even out yet let alone production, so it's still way too soon. If this attempt is to work towards a JL movie. Maybe they'll give Armie Hammer another crack at Bruce/Batman.

But yeah way too soon.

And if there's any genre that likes to instantly reboot and keep churning it out, it's comic book movies.

Following actual comics to a tee.

I don't think there was any question whatsoever that Batman was going to be milked for perpetuity in the wake of Nolan making Warner Bros. a hojillion bucks with his movies. Further films after his trilogy were inevitable.

Do you want a JLA film or not? I'd rather they ditched TDKR if it meant getting a JLA film sooner.

The Mirrorball Man · March 30 2011, 05:37 PM

Good. That means that the next movie will offer us something completely new for a superhero movie: closure.

Obiwanshinobi · March 30 2011, 05:43 PM

I'd rather have both but hope they at least take their time with JL.

Id say finish off this "prequel" trilogy of Batman coming up in the ranks. Regroup for a bit and give the other DC characters a shot. Then comeback to do a already established Batman, movie in working towards a JLA movie ala Avengers.

I think 2013 is wishful thinking and seems a bit rushed. Strike while the irons hot I guess but still.

I wonder what other passion projects Nolans got in store.

I was thinking the same thing. How can people bitch about comic book reboot movies when comic books reboot themselves every other year?
