There´s a nice piece by the one really cool guy from AICN (www.aintitcool.com), Moriarty, where he talked to Goyer about The Invisible and of course The Dark Knight. Nothing new about the story, but a nice tidbit on his involvement with it:
"One of the characters he has the most evident affection for is Batman, and he sounded very positive about THE DARK KNIGHT. He said that one of the things he most enjoyed about the process he went through in contributing to the sequel was the way it was never a foregone conclusion. They didnt just slap something together after the first films opening weekend. Instead, months went by before Goyer and Nolan first got together to start talking about what they wanted to do. For Nolan, there was no point in making a BATMAN sequel unless there was a story worth telling, something genuinely different that got Nolan excited about the film. Goyer was a big part of breaking the story with Nolan, and then had to leave to start work on THE INVISIBLE. In his ongoing conversations with Nolan, though, hes giddy about what hes been hearing. He talked around what we can expect to see, careful not to give too much away, but he sounds excited as a fan. Im always impressed when I see a filmmaker who is still genuinely excited by other peoples work, who still loves the same things that made him want to make films in the first place."
