... What route would you like WB to go down?
It seems Nolan & co don't want to stay on for more than three films, so we should expect major changes some time after the sequel to 'The Dark Knight'. I thought we could have a poll on a few of the more distinct options WB has, and discuss it all more in detail.
Original stories
These would be films not based on any currently available Batman stories. A good option for those who find adaptations superfluous and/or often disappointing. Could be a series of stand-alone stories, or a series of connected ones.
Graphic novel adaptations
For those of you who've longed for on-screen versions of The Killing Joke, Arkham Asylum, something Elseworlds, and whatnot. Could be an adaptation on some comic book story arch, as well. The adapations could be stand-alone, or be joined together somehow.
Another franchise reboot
Not happy with the current take on the Batman mythos? Or simply want to see some variation of the same thing? This option would mean a new origin film and some sequels to it, perhaps with a completely different approach to it all.
Continuation of current series
While Nolan & co may not stay, WB might still want to expand upon their material. It's possible that we'll see another team (new director, new actors, etc.) pick up where Nolan & co left off. The poll option means you'd possibly like it even if Nolan & co does not stay.
None of the options exclude the possibility of the others happening at some point, this is just about what you'd like WB to do first, once the current series reaches its end.
