Movies between movies

Without changing anything from the movies that we actually got,what would you have like to have seen as plots for movies that would have taken place between ...

Batman
Batman Returns
Batman Forever
Batman and Robin

also

Batman Begins
The Dark Knight
The Dark Knight Rises

Which actor as Batman? (First four movies only of course)
What villains?
New Characters?
Which director? (Burton,Schumacher,Nolan respectively)

 

For starters, I would have loved to have seen Keaton's Batman's relationship with Billy Dee Williams' Harvey Dent fleshed out between the first movie,Returns and Forever. Burton's Scarecrow would have been fun to see as well.Johnny Depp would have been a likely choice for Crane though I think Burton would have leaned toward the Riddler.

Ironically enough,post Batman and Robin,once again the Scarecrow could have worked and was probably most needed in an attempt to darken the tone of the franchise again.Ra's Al Ghul (with Talia) and Clayface seemed like potential choices as well. If I'm not mistaken,rumor has it that Schumacher wanted to introduce Bat-Mite :-(

Nolan's Riddler,Black Mask and Penguin could have fit perfectly in between Begin and TDK as well as Batman working deeper in the shadows between TDK and Rises.

 

Good idea!I also wonder how Tim Burton would have handled exploring the time between Thomas and Martha Wayne's deaths til Bruce first becoming Batman.
