Nolan Talks About Batman 3, Catwoman, The Riddler and The Penguin - Page 5

Apparently Nolan actually has admitted to having some "rough outlines" going, but he doesn't like much of what he's come up with so far.

""I don't know why they're hard to do," Nolan says. "Maybe there's so much expectation to them. But I wouldn't want to do one if it weren't going to be as good as the first or second. That's not respectful to the fans."

The fact that he's at least doing some outlining would probably point to a future Batman movie, but I wouldn't bet on it coming in only three years like between Begins and The Dark Knight. Maybe four.

You can't trust everything that seemed to make a cameo.

I don't know why exactly but that and the Clayface discussion made me remember Dick Tracy, which was pretty good and all but I don't want Christopher Nolan's Batman to become it.

I'm fine with that. I want Nolan to make another non-Batman movie first anyway. I mean, he got The Prestige done in between BB and TDK...

It seemed like Batman Begins ended with him fairly certain that he knew where The Dark Knight was going, but I never got that same feeling from the latter.

But hey the third in the series has been frequently where things get bad (TMNT3 and X-Men 3, for example), it's nice to see he puts quality over speed.

NEXT TIME ON
WHEN SEQUELS GO BAD

EDIT: One thing I have to wonder about as well; how is Gotham City going to be affected by the newer villains, IE, Riddler? Usually it's always about how Batman is the protector of Gotham and the villains (Falconey, Ra's, Joker) who are trying to destroy it. If Riddler's the new man, how is he trying to mess things up?

Agreed, but it's worth noting at least that X3 had a different director than the first two. Assuming Nolan stayed on board for a third Batman installment, he's more than proven himself in the first two to let me set my skepticism and cynicism aside.

...You know, until it sucks.

Yeah except Singer left X-3 to do Superman Returns.

So, yeah.
