Re: Third Nolan Batman film title announced!

Upcoming next: Chris Nolan sneezes. 20 pages of discussion.

OMG Christopher Nolan's sneeze was the best sneeze ever!!!! It was SO much better than any other sneeze we've ever had!!!!

Personally, I found the sneeze cliché and pedestrian.

What, you want it to be silly and cartoony like all those other sneezes out there? Nolan's sneeze had SO much more depth!!! It was the most realistic sneeze ever, you guys!!!!

Batman³

Alternatively, 3atman

Re: Third Nolan Batman film title announced!

I don't really care much for the title since it's so close to the name of the previous film. But in the end it doesn't matter since most people are going to refer to it as "that new Batman movie" anyways.

If Hugo Strange winds up being the big bad then I can see Tom hardy playing him.

Re: Third Nolan Batman film title announced!

I was disappointed to hear Nolan wasn't going to do Mr. Freeze...which I think could fit in the Nolan-Batman world if they get a great actor to play Dr. Victor Fries...thinking Patrick Stewart...but Tom Hardy could work...see where I am going.

Mr. Freeze!!!

Re: Third Nolan Batman film title announced!

I think the "Caped Crusader" nickname has probably gotten too associated with the 60s Adam West series for them to seriously consider it as a title.

That was 50yrs ago. It's not on DVD and I'd be surprised that its playing in many, if any, markets in reruns now.

Not true. I see DVD's for Batman: The Movie everywhere. In fact, my friend has a copy and loves to watch it for fun, constantly repeating the infamous "Some days you just can't get rid of a bomb" line.

The TV series. I would've thought using the term "reruns" indicated that.
Still that lone movie should hardly be considered a barrier.

I catch the old series on TVLand all the time.

I was hoping for Shadow of the Bat. Oh well.

Re: Third Nolan Batman film title announced!

I guess The Dark Knight Beats The Living Hell Out of Asshole Criminals wouldn't fit on the poster.

Re: Third Nolan Batman film title announced!

Why not "Rise of the Dark Knight"?

I prefer "Gotham" frankly.

Or "Gotham Rising" now...

Or "Fall of the Dark Knight"

Or "The Dark Knight Falls" is even slightly better.

Oh please. That was hardly a momentous sneeze. In fact, I bet that he could have even held that sneeze in, if he really wanted to. Face it. The sneeze was just for show! Now everyone is all "bless you, Mr. Nolan." As if he wasn't already blessed with filmmaking talent to begin with!

It also means the opposite of the current title.

Re: Third Nolan Batman film title announced!

The Dark Knight: Reloaded

 

[Christopher]

Re: Third Nolan Batman film title announced!

I agree that Shadow of the Bat would be a much better name, though.

Well, in B:TAS that was the name of the story that introduced Batgirl, so it seems weird to me if applied to a solo Batman story with no sidekick involved.

What about The Dark Knight Trips followed by The Dark Knight Falls and then finally The Dark Knight Rises?

The Dark Knight Falls Downstairs... Oh hell, Robot Chicken could have a lot of fun with these titles. Gotham City Rising would have been a better title.

Not familiar with the character? Azrael was introduced in 1992.
Replaced Bruce as Batman, at Bruce's choosing, when his back was broken.

Re: Third Nolan Batman film title announced!

Damn, that's a crappy title. Even "Rise of the Dark Knight" would better. Ugh.

And no Riddler? I have faith that whoever Nolan picks as the villain will be great, but I'm still disappointed about no Riddler.
