Nope. Just that WB is trying to find a way to squeeze a new Batman movie or a Superman/Batman movie into the 8 year gap between The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises.

Lots of fake info roaming around. Heard some...interesting things myself.

[shauner111]

care to share?

[Asgard]

I hope all the info's fake tbh.

Want to go in knowing almost nothing.

[LeXcalibur]

plenty of fake info on the net. at one point cavill couldn't be cast cause it had to be an american. oh and he had to be older superman this time around - jon hamm. nolan's brother was directing based off of the deadline story breaking that nolan was producing. just tons of stupid made up stories.

i guess it is fun to discuss when things are slow as they are now.

[Ita-KalEl]

It's sure that after TDKR we'll hear all types of rumors reguarding a JLA or a Team Up movie.

Or Chris Meloni being Lex.

I agree because I have not loved Bale's take on the character very much. It's okay but I think that he could've done better.

[Rust]

I agree there. Bale's Batman has not been very likable or charismatic. He's been rather anonymous, but Imagine that to be somewhat intentional because of the circumstances.

I think first you might see an inter-studio film using Marvel characters where they split costs ie Spider-Man or Wolverine with the Avengers. There is no doubt in my mind that you're going to see the two comic book companies intertwine at some point on screen.

You think so? I know the reward would be great, but it seems to me that ego's would prevent such a thing from happening, or at the very least cause delay after delay, ie, my hero is stronger, or yours can't be stronger than mine....

Money talks. Avengers has changed EVERYTHING.

[DIRECTOR]

Avengers made more money in three days than Superman Returns did in it's entire Domestic run............

Superman needs to come back. MOS, no matter how awesome the movie is, will definitely not hit 400 mil, or possibly 300 mil because of the reputation of it's previous films. I would love MOS to kick Avatar out of the #1 spot, but sadly won't happen.

[GreenKToo]

Then I hope it happens. I really want a WF film before anything else tho.

that won't happen, and the reason why is that Nolan......( I love Nolan).... but he is a douche. He is going to end TDKR in way that Batman will end in some fashion.

So, if there is ever a WF movie, it will be set sometime in TDK and TDKR timeline.......... or with the reboot Batman.

[GreenKToo]

I like nolan and bale, but it really doesnt matter to me if its bales Batman, or a new Batman in WF.

He's a douche for ending his own story? A story the studio can restart whenever they want?

We'll have to wait until the May 18th Hero convention for some real news I suppose,hope Zachary gives us something to get excited about at the Q and A session.

Any big news or teaser now would just get lost in all the current Avengers,Batman,Spider Man jizz.

[Rust]

"I like nolan and bale, but it really doesnt matter to me if its bales Batman, or a new Batman in WF."

It would be. The new trilogy will reboot when Nolan kills off Batman or Bruce Wayne.

[Showtime]

Joseph Gordon Levitt and Cavill?

[GreenKToo]

Bring it I say.....

Wouldn't be so sure of that...

No no no, i mean, he is going to end Batman..... when i mean end, i mean end it like you haven't seen in the comics or cartoons.

For example, and this is just an example. If Zack wanted to be a douche, and wants to end his story of Superman, than he will either kill Superman at the end, or be really creative and make Superman loose all his powers and marry Lois, so that he won't be Superman anymore ................................

It's like how Michael Bay killed off all the main villains in Dark of the Moon because he want to end the franchise and to prevent future movies.

It's a douchy thing to do, it's like sabotaging the universe so nobody else can use the same actors, storylines, or art designs.

I would really like to see the Riddler in a Nolan universe, but it won't happen.
