A quick glance at W.B. schedule reveal that summer 2010 is EMPTY for them while summer 11 already has Harry Potter 8.

I think we may see Bat 3 fasttracked for 2010 in order to even out w.b.'s schedule.
 
Yeah and Hulk was released in December... give us a break Excel... Nolan's camp didn't discuss Dark Knight until the Holidays of 2005.
 
I don't buy it. They're going to let Nolan do what he wants, which I highly doubt is jumping on another Bat-film right away.

If they want to fasttrack something, let it be something not featuring either of the World's Finest.
 
Easily made DC movie: Flash.
One that takes more planning: Green Lantern.
Do it!
 
That would be a bad move. It's too soon and they need time to write a decent sequel. Three years is fine. Besides, I'm quite sure Nola doesn't want to rush things.

Yes, Flash would be quick!:hehe: Honestly though, I'd like to see The Flash done with at least the same respect as Iron Man. Nothing is going to outdo TDK.

Maybe 2012?

December 12, 2012?

And that that's how the world ends because they'd make a movie that's better than TDK which couldn't possibly exist and therefore reality rejects such an impossible thing and rips itself apart?

Im not sure it's so much about fast tracking for the sake of fast tracking. Given the films absurd success, the wb are gonna start looking into the sequel VERY soon or probably already have, and the slate for them is lacking. Its not that much fo a leap fo faith to think Warners might try to see if Nolan could get bat 3 out for 2010. If he says I want to do something else first than thatd whatll happen, or they could offer him a boatload. Its just speculation.

Even the Mayans trust Nolan.

I don't doubt they'd inquire; that's simple studio greed. I just don't see Nolan entertaining it.
 
I have no doubt that WB wants BB3 out in 2010, but its not going to happen. With a movie of this caliber, they would have to already have the early stages in motion and Nolan isn't gonna do that. I would expect a summer 2011 release
 
Not to mention Nolan has a deal with some new tv show tying his hands up for a while. That'll just delay BB3 even longer. I wouldn't dare be surprised to think we may be talkin 2013 or 2014.

please change your sig because it is clearly not the bartender

and it would be a shame if the movie came out that soon because then it wouldn't be worth seeing, i want a third movie in 2011 or 2012 then in 2022-2025 i want the dark knight returns
 
let Nolan take his time with BB3. He's a one film at a time kind of director. it took 3 years to make TDK and it turned out to be really awesome. 3 years is enough to make a 3rd movie.
 
I think its too soon since Batman Begins and The Dark Knight has a 3 year gap it would be just 2year gap.

But the good thing the shorter you wait the better!
 
Nolan is still working on The Prisoner, so I doubt he'd go onto another film for 2010 so quickly.
 
Batman 3 depends on Nolan. He will not rush the project and there's no doubt in my mind that if he does he will want to dedicate time and care to have it live up to, if not exceed, TDK (although I personally think it's impossible).

I don't expect Batman 3 for at till at minimum 2011. I'm sure Nolan will want to do a different project before turning back to Batman, i.e: when he did The Prestige between BB and TDK.
 
Do you think it can be done? I think it would be a good idea actually. Here are my reasons why I believe a third can be done for a 2010 release.

-Keep It Fresh. A lot of people I know who saw TDK were not fans of Batman. But they came out ones. "Feed the Dogs while they are still hungry"

-With SM4 planning a 2011 Release, it might be a good idea for 2010. Get the most money you can.

-Chris Nolan for now has no projects in the future.


Thoughts?

Does that mean Nolan isn't doing The Prisoner anymore?
 
I think three years like BB to TDK is the best due to it still being fresh while also giving Nolan the extra time he needs.

If anything I always wanted Spidey 4 for 2010. Think three years is the best way to go for a sequel.
 
I agree with Chris. Three years is good. Maybe even four.
 
I think they should do it for 2010 because:

1) Bale is beginning to look old now (hes gonna be 36 if they film it in 2010 for 2011 release)
2) Marvel has 2 big movies coming out in 2011 (Avengers and Captain America) and Iron Man 2 is already set for April 30 2010, so they can get that July spot again for 2010 and not have to compete with Marvel.
3) Batman 3 will receive more momentum from TDK being released in 2 years rather than 3 or 4.
4) There is no reason for Warner Brothers to delay or not believe in a third movie with Chris Nolan as director/writer, so development and funding should be quicker this time.
5) Nolan, his brother, and Goyer can write a great Batman movie regardless of time, and the Nolan's don't have another movie to do (yet) like The Prestige in between Batman movies
6) Bale has no filming projects, for now at least, from summer 09 onwards, so WB can ask him leave that space open for Batman 3 filming.
7) Spider-man 2 was a great sequel and great drama/action movie, and was the best superhero movie ever until TDK. It was released only 2 years after its predecessor.

I read he just helped write that film, but that he's probably not directing it since its similar to his first films.
