I dunno. That trilogy is just so well put together. Do you really want them to re-open it?

Nolan has the Midas touch now, So it's a definite that the film will be very good.

This could work and be pretty interesting depending upon what they do with Batman. I would be so much more interested in scrapping a JL movie altogether, and making 2 or 3 films out of "Return of the Dark Knight" (the animated movie, especially #2 is great). That would be ****ing awesome in my opinion or just make this in about another 10 or 15 years with Nolan and Bale, and go ahead with a JL movie for now.

I guess I'll have to wait until the new Supes movie comes out to know for sure but I think part of the reason both The Avengers and Dark Knight trilogy works is because the heroes, for the most part, aren't really super-powered. Of course, they aren't realistic at all but there is still a thought that training, technology or science made these heroes (Thor excepted) so there is a tiny connection to them to the audience. Watching super-beings like Superman and Wonder Woman reduces the audience to just watching the show with little personal involvement.
If they could make the heroes more like a cross between Nolan's Batman and the CW show "Arrow", I think they could do something cool. BTW, I know none of it realistic at all - no amount of training is going to make you be able to take the punishment Bruce Wayne takes as Batman, for example - but it is more "believable" than super-powered aliens. |

Yes, Thor and Hulk could really happen.

I really wouldn't mind seeing a Batman vs. Superman movie if it was all dark like that. |

I knew someone would immediately take that tact (and I did say "excepting Thor").
Whatever. Just a personal theory that the more "realistic" super-heroes make better movies, like Iron Man and Batman. I didn't care for the Iron Man comics but he has translated well to the movies. |

Actually, I just had a different thought about this. Maybe it isn't the level of realism but that a more realistic super-hero is easier to get right in a movie. For example, I was a huge Spider-Man fan when I was a kid. One of the most disappointing thing about all of movies is they just haven't gotten Spidey to move the way I always pictured in my head. He was supposed to be incredibly fast and agile and I don't think they have been able to duplicate that yet. Batman and Iron Man are easier to make believable because they aren't super-powered.

If Nolan is controlling this thing, then I am all in.

Christian Bale won't be Batman in 'Justice League' movie
http://www.cnn.com/2013/07/01/showbi...html?hpt=en_c1 We already knew that Christian Bale probably wasn't going to show up as Batman in the upcoming Justice League movie, the Avengers-style supergroup of DC heroes. First, Bale said that he wouldn't do another Batman movie unless Nolan opted for a fourth Dark Knight chapter, which Nolan says isn't happening. Then 'Man of Steel' and 'Dark Knight' screenwriter David S. Goyer confirmed that the Justice League's Batman would be a rebooted character. So that pretty much closed the book. Still, with news like this, sometimes you just have to hear it from the man himself. "We were incredibly fortunate to get to make three [Batman films]. That's enough. Let's not get greedy," says Bale, who called EW to promote his upcoming revenge drama 'Out of the Furnace' (in theaters Nov. 27). "Chris [Nolan] always said he wanted to make it one film at a time. And we ended up sitting there looking at each other, saying 'We're about to make the third.' We never really knew if we were going to get to be there, but if that was how it was going to be, this was where it should end as well." The actor says he hasn't even been involved in official talks about a Justice League movie. "I have no information, no knowledge about anything. I've literally not had a conversation with a living soul. I understand that they may be making a Justice League movie, that's it." But he says he's not sad to pass Batman's cowl into new hands: "It's a torch that should be handed from one actor to another. So I enjoy looking forward to what somebody else will come up with."
