Curious about ideas for new Sequel Title

[TALON]

What's goin' on, this is TALON aka EagleVision. I haven't been on these here boards in years and wanted to hear some ideas on what you guys had to say on a Bat Title for the upcoming sequel. Now you all may have very well talked about this on a different thread or whatever but I don't care. It's been years since I've been here so don't jump on my back with your sanctimonious put downs of "We've heard this before" or "go to the thread on page so and so" or "not this again." Those types of people can shove it and cram it. I know how you people can be on the these boards. I used to do those things myself a little bit too. :) I'm sure you veterans will probably want to break me in and say all those things anyway.

Here are the titles I had in mind:
Batman: Joker's Wild (my personal favorite)
Batman: Archnemesis
Batman: Law of the Knight
Batman: The Dark Knight

It's nice to be back. EagleVision out, or should I say my temporary name Talon out.

All of the titles I've heard from here and other sites seem kind of lame, but then again I think whatever they name it...it'll sound lame for a while. When I first heard about Superman Returns I was like "Ugh! A total rip off of Batman Returns' title!", but I got used to it.

It's too bad some of the best titles for Batman stuff have been used up by comic books. It'd be great to be able to name the second Batman Begins movie "Batman: The Dark Knight Returns" or something cool like that, you know? Obviously the villian will be The Joker, so that kind of narrows the choices of vocabulary to use in the new title.

I don't know. Maybe something like "Batman Continues"? I don't, man.

Thank you Katsuro, for your pointless comment. U know what u can do. Read above. Nice to be back.

Except that he is correct. Call us sanctimonious or whatever you want, but a number of us have been trying to clean up the Batman boards recently just because it was getting completely out of hand with repeating threads. The fact that you have been here before generally makes it even worse because I am sure you have experienced repeating threads before, and you obviously know better because you expressly stated it in your first post.

I find it funny that you call out Katsuro for disregarding your first post and telling you that there are plenty of posts on this already, but you yourself find it okay to completely disregard the general Hype posting etiquette and make another repetetive and pointless thread. Welcome back.

[Katsuro]

You know, I think i'll go create another Robin or Joker thread, and maybe as long as I tell people not to bug me about it, the mods wont delete it or merge it.

Unbelievable! And yet you still find the time to comment on something that you could've simply ignored. Those who want to comment will and those who don't won't. When I see this thread on page 2, 3 or whatever, it's all good cause nobody had to say anything on the subject. Try doing the same, ignore the thread, move on with your life so I can hear other people's ideas and not your mouth running on the same stuff I'd knew you'd say. That's why I stated everything from the get-go so people like yourselves can ignore these threads. Anybody who's been any length of time, knows people will ignore the thread if it's something repeated and it will disappear over the course of time and new threads. With all this said, GET OFF MY BACK! Thank you. This speech was brought to you by Talon, and written for the simple-minded.

[CConn]

This speech was brought to you by Talon, and written for the simple-minded.You'll probably want to proof-read it then.

You can do better than that, Christina Ricci.

[CConn]

You can do better than that, Christina Ricci.But why would I waste my brilliance juice on you? It doesn't grow on trees, you know. I have to milk it. Long. And hard.

[TALON]

But why would I waste my brilliance juice on you? It doesn't grow on trees, you know. I have to milk it. Long. And hard.

Please, I don't need to know how you milk anything long and hard. Keep those things to yourself.

[CConn]

Please, I don't need to know how you milk anything long and hard. Keep those things to yourself.At least I didn't make a thread on what to title it.

I call it Roger, fyi.

[TALON]

I was just about to agree with you, until u called it Roger. Better luck next time.

[CConn]

I was just about to agree with you, until u called it Roger. Better luck next time.Well, I wasn't about to call it Frodo.

...Ironically, I myself once created a BB2 title thread. But I had you beat by like 2 years, you can check. Please don't though, cause I sucked all kindsa ass back then (yet my threads were pretty good, go fig).

[mcflytrap]

It should be only "The Dark Knight".

[blitz]

It should be only "The Dark Knight".
yeah thats cool

[elorenishii386]

It should be only "The Dark Knight".

Batman: The Dark Knight
or just The Dark Knight...those two sound pretty good to me.

It's a whole lot better then...Batman:Jokers wild or Batman:escalation or Batman: blah blah blah...

[Jul-el]

Batman II gets my vote.

[TALON]

It should be only "The Dark Knight".

Yeah, I like that just fine. U get so used to hearin' Batman this and Batman that; The Dark Knight is to the point and says everything. Thanks for the input.

[TALON]

I agree, I've just always liked Batman: Joker's Wild because of the pun intended, but The Dark Knight is fine by me. As long as it isn't the Caped Crusader. Besides the fact that the title sucks for Bats, I always saw that being more closer to Superman's role.

[Joe Kerr]

a friend of mine tought the name "B2" was good, and i sighed in dissappointment, i thought the name batman begins was crappy, but i loved the film (best one yet, IMO) it only goes to show that the name doesnt really matter, its the film that matters,


i still hope they give it a kick a$$ name tho,

[Warhammer]

How about Batman: Intimidation, or Batman: Intimidation Game.
:p

[Joe Kerr]

wasnt that the original name for BB or the cover name or whatever

[Warhammer]

Yep, it was the cover up name.
But it sounds really cool.

[Joe Kerr]

what aboot "Batman:Redemption"

[TALON]

Tru that.

[TALON]

what aboot "Batman:Redemption"


Hmm, why did u choose that. What background story do you see happening?

[Joe Kerr]

i see sumthin' like joker makin batman look like a fool and he has to redeem his trust with the city of gotham, him and dent catch him and at the very end when joker is on trial, have the acid splash on Harveys face, thats whast i want the movie to look like, since obviously we cant have a joker backstory because the character was introduced in BB, we cant have the
"you created me, and i created you" thing, but y'no

[Dark Knight]

Batman Redemption

[Joe Kerr]

yeah, whats wrong with that name???

[SANTANA SANCHEZ]

Batman Strikes Back

[Joe Kerr]

return of the dark night

[gangsta_crizzab]

Batman: The Killing Joke :)

Seriously, if Nolan and Goyer used the Joker origin from Killing Joke, that would own big time

Nice man, that's tight. I'll put that up there with Joker's Wild.

[Isildur´s Heir]

Batman Triumphant


What? WHAT? WHAT???




:D

[NotFadeAway]

Batman: Dark Knight

I would also like to see the Joker origin from Killing Joke!

[explode7]

How about Batman's Back Again:up:

i wish someone could post some panels of joker because in one of them it looks like sean penn, i was like woah!

[ganstaman56]

I don't know. Maybe something like "Batman Continues"? I don't, man. they already said they arent using that.

[Joe Kerr]

i honestly dont care what its called as long as the film itself is good

[ganstaman56]

they have already announced that one of these will be the title.

Batman Strikes, Batman Attacks, Batman Escalation and Batman 2.
Nolan himself has said that Batman Continues is not going to be the title.

[Joe Kerr]

escalation sounds good like act 2 in a three act play

[ganstaman56]

They didn't announce anything. That's all rumor and speculation, most of it coming from Batman-on-film. They could call it anything at this point.

[Spidey 2007]

escalation sounds good like act 2 in a three act play

its not really good for promotion.. "ermm, escalation.. yeah" sounds weird to your average goer. Batman Begins is hopefulyl as bad as it gets.

Batman 2 will be perfectly fine... and will finally put to rest the " DERR BUT ITS A PREQUEL DERR"

i dont know. its really hard to think of a title that would fit fine. hmmm escalation....hermmm. i guess it could work. i guess its just as bad as when i heard " batman begins" i cringed. but only at the name, i knew the movie would rock like no other! :up:

[Joe Kerr]

well, What ever the F*** its called im sure the movie will kick A$$

[Timstuff]

"Batman: The Dark Knight" is almost as good as calling Spider-Man 2 "The Amazing Spider-Man". :down:

Haha, this thread isn't complete before I post my fan poster. :D

That's amazing, Timstuff.

Pure awesomeness.

[Joe Kerr]

thats hilarious :D

[Eddie Dean]

That's great. :up:

[batlovescatDC]

How about BATMAN: CONTINUUM. I just thought it might be a good follow up to the BEGINS sub-title. I don't know, what do you think?

[kpjoon]

You know.... Believe it or not, Batman Attacks sounds pretty good.
At first I thought it sounded silly and dumb but then it grew on me.
We most likely won't have this as a title but oh well.

[Angel Of Dark]

what about "The Goddamn Batman"

[Two-Face]

Batman Kicks Ass (BKA)

[Angel Of Dark]

Batman: dead man's chest


why does that sound familar

[Angel Of Dark]

Batman: Retribution

Batman: Killing Games

Batman: Insueing Chaos

Batman: The Dark Knight

Batman: Duality

Batman: Shadow Games

Batman: The Drawing of Two (actually I like this one better for part 3)

[Nightwing92]

Okay, "The Saga Continues" is totally from Star Wars, and that's a stupid title anyway.

How about good old "Batman 2?"

[batlovescatDC]

How about BATMAN PREVAILS or BATMAN: TRUE JUSTICE?

wow, don't get too original in the title man....... I mean, you don't want to get a head ache trying to come up with something original.........

[Katsuro]

It's just a title, who cares about originality. What matters is that it sounds good to the general public and generates interest. Batman 2 is simple and effective.

And you're one to talk about originality. You make that "The Saga Continues" line up off the top of your head?

I just threw it together man, but atleast I put a lil effort into it, unlike, ooohhh Batman 2........ I mean even a terrbile franchise like FF, isn't going the number route.... plus they need to make this series seperate then the other Batman Series, I can see just having Batman 2 being confusing 10 years down the line.... someone might watch the 1989 "Batman" and think "Batman 2" is the sequel....... I mean, Batman Returns sounds more like Batman Begins Sequel, then Batman 2........
