Pitch me a scene you'd like to see in this solo.

[godisawesome]

Just like the old one we had on the BvS board.

Show everyone a scene, script, or a summary of a sequence you'd like to see in this baby.

Here's a quick scene pitch:

In the Batcave, Bruce and Dick have their first real heart to heart in years. The film establishes before hand that Dick left Gotham after seeing Bruce get lethal after Jason's death. It's a quiet meeting, with both men in the kind of half armored states you sometimes expect in Batcave scenes. Bruce has his cowl off, but still wears the full cape, with Alfred applying some kind of bandage to his face. Dick, his gloves and mask off, is clearly more relaxes, but the conversation starts off pretty awkward.

After talking shop in a fairly impersonal way for a while, Dick finally pauses before the Robin memorial. And then he asks why Bruce didn't clean it off, and why the Joker's marks are still over it. Bruce says something about it being to remind him to never forget, Dick gets testy over what he considers a bit of desecration by inaction, and it escalates into an actual argument, but one where we can tell these two men are close. After being interrupted by Irons's Alfred with perfect timing, they agree to keep working together on the current case, but Dick's still staying somewhere else and going to operate mostly alone.

Alfred ends the scene expressing some approval that they only barely argued, and reveals that Dick left Gotham after getting into a legitimate fight with Bruce over Bruce man-slaughtering some crooks. He also reveals that Dick is staying at...Commisioner Gordon's where Babs coincidentally has returned for a while as well.

This actually causes a brief chuckle to escape Batman for a second. End scene.

This started out as me re-writting TDKR. I'm sure you can salvage a couple of nice scenes from it:

Open the movie with an attack on Wayne Manor; it is completely leveled. Alfred is missing in action. Bruce Wayne is presumed dead. A corpse found in the ruins is identified as being Bruce Wayne.

On the other side of the world we find Bruce in a monastery belonging to the League of Shadows. It is built on the wreckage of one he’d previously destroyed. Here Bruce is introduced to Talia al Ghul. During their meeting we flashback to the events leading up to the attack on Wayne Manor.

Flashback: Talia’s Story: Talia al Ghul and her people follow Selina Kyle to Wayne Manor. We see Selina attempting to steal something from within the manor, she’s interrupted by Bruce. She drops her warning about a coming storm. Then all hell breaks loose – Talia and her squad attack. Selina escapes through trickery and speaks to someone via communications device. Elsewhere on the grounds, Firefly finishes planting his explosives and sets them off. Selina escapes in the chaos; Talia abducts Bruce.

In Gotham, Alfred refuses to belief that Bruce is dead. He finds a bit of iconography in the rubble and thinks he recognizes it. Accessing the bat cave’s computer, Alfred discovers that it belongs to the League of Shadows, specifically a splinter group that his men encountered in the past. It terrifies Alfred. He brings his findings to Comissioner Gordon.

Alfred’s journey to the GPD gives us a look at a post Dent Act Gotham. While much of it seems fine, graffiti indicates a growing resentment toward the semi-police state imposed by the Dent Act. Within the GPD, we learn that crimes within the Narrows and other lower income areas are skyrocketing. People thinking they have nothing left to lose are getting more aggressive. Gordon seizes on the opportunity to rally Gotham against the terrorist threat presented by this League of Shadows splinter group.

In the League of Shadows Monastery, Talia tells Bruce that she’s come to him for help: she needs him to help her put away Bane and his band of followers, his Suicide Squad.

Cut to, Bane’s sewer lair: we see Deacon Blackfire preaching to masses of the disenfranchised, against the greed of Gotham’s elite and the corruption that made the Dent Act a reality. Catwoman is off to the side, wondering if the Deacon has actually read the legislation; she has and thinks his message is ********. Deadshot is having reservations about carrying out a hit on Gotham’s mayor – he likes the idea of the Dent Act because it would’ve put away people like the pedophile that killed his boy. Bane reminds Deadshot that its people in the upper class, like his mother (who had hired the thugs, including the pedo), that backed the Dent Act. This gives Deadshot the resolve to carry out his hit. Firefly reports in that the charges have been set as Bane requested.

Cut to League of Shadows Monastery: Talia recounts Bane’s origins to Bruce – a wandering mercenary that was imprisoned by a warlord, and later trained with the League of Shadows. Bane was excommunicated when he gathered a following from the League’s ranks and carried out a renegade mission – the assassination of the warlord that had imprisoned him; in response, Bane was excommunicated. Talia believes that Bane sees Bruce as someone unappreciative of what he’d been given by Ra’s al Ghul.

Bane - I'd make it so that the warlord that imprisoned him was connected to the human trafficking operation Batman busted in BvS. With the flow of goods disrupted, the warlord began to demand more from the villages under his protection. Bane stood up to him, was beaten, humiliated and locked away. He escaped, found training with the League of Assassins, and went renegade to take out the warlord, then took over his operations.

I'd love the movie to open with.

Black screen fades out to show The Batman perched on top of a gargoyle staring out at Gotham. You hear sirens waling, next Alfred comes over the comms and says something like.
"We have a situation at Arkham Bruce, some of the inmates are holding the guards hostage".
Just at that the Bat symbol lights up the sky. With a little grin Batman presses a button on his wrist and swoops down into the bat mobile.
"On my way Alfred, open up the garage and lock it down"
Bat mobile roars off and the opening credits start.

the Joker brutally beating Jason Todd to death with a crow bar

Do you reckon DC would be bold enough to do this

Mid Credits scene...

Rainy night in Gotham and Commissioner Gordon is on a rooftop waiting for Batman to show up. Little does he know Batman is already there but he is standing on top of a gargoyle and jumps down to where Gordon is. They talk and Gordon tells him that there is a new threat in town as he lists the guy's rap sheet. Bruce of course wonders who this guy is as Gordon says he doesn't know his name but that he leaves a calling card at the scene of his crimes. Gordon gives him the card. It is a Joker card. We hear Joker's laugh in the background at full volume...full blast but we don't see Joker at all in this scene. We just hear his laugh setting Joker up for the sequel. In this film to start off, I would go with Hush or Mr Freeze as villain to start off in 2021. Mid Credits before it fades to black says "Batman will return."

Post credits scene could be anything but I would have it build towards another DCEU film franchise entirely.

 

[Whatupman]

Umm, that's just the ending scene to Batman Begins ...

 

[Tg11]

Similar yes but not so much I actually tweaked it

 

[David H.]

Do you reckon DC would be bold enough to do this

We got the bat-butt in Batman vs. Superman.

The world is ready.

 

[Tg11]

Or another post credit scene idea would be Bruce and Alfred talking about his Batman escapades when he gets a distress call on the Bat Computer. The Bat Signal light shows up in the sky as Bruce goes to work as Bruce in his Batman costume then comes up upon a body of a thug but Bruce sees the body frozen like ice almost like a popsicle. Bruce of course investigates. Fade to black.

 

[Mandon Knight]

I need to see this.....

 

[Tg11]

Batman should take on Falcone and the mob in this film too

 

[Kadiru]

I think it's time for a proper sex scene including Batman and Catwoman (outside of their costumes of course), take it as far as the pg-13 ratings allows it to be. Do I need to get into detail about that scene? Probably not.

[Aximili86]

Just something simple & evocative we haven't really got before, a real noir thing, quiet scene of Bats tailing someone. Agile rooftop stuff (without getting too crazy Spiderman/Fox-Daredevil with it), some use of the grappling hook, stalking some mob crew or something.

Maybe raining, maybe an old noir type voiceover/narration, something like that. Low-key moody music. Probably ending with Bats descending to wreck all the mob dude's bodyguards, kinda like the Begins dock scene but with the camera way further back and some actual action-chops from Reeves & whoever his fight guy is.

Interrogation ensues, more quietly-calmly-confident Conroy than Bale just screaming in people's faces like a chain-smoking Arkham inmate.

Batman lurking in the shadows whilst mob thugs are making a deal somewhere like maybe in an alley on a dark, rainy night. Batman then descends upon them. They of course try shooting at him but of course they miss. They are not hitting anything and Batman dispatches of them pretty easily. Batman then says his infamous I Am The Night...I am Batman speech as he then asks the thugs just who they work for. The thugs say they don't work for Falcone but for someone a lot more dangerous.

 

[Shamik121804]

I'd like a movie that's set up like Se7en, where the audience learns along with Batman. Show us the same clues that he follows and let us see if we can figure out what's going on. I really wish they could keep the main villain a mystery until the third act, where said villain then defeats Batman by some means during their first encounter. Then, of course, Batman figures out a way to stop him or her by the end of the movie.

 

[cryptic name]

I'd really like a sequence to play out where Bruce is trapped in a situation where he has to act as Batman in a public setting without access to his suit. Basically he has to engage and subdue enemies without being seen and maintaining his disguise as Bruce Wayne.

 

[cryptic name]

Another one, and I'll admit this is ultra specific and would only fit into a few stories/takes, but since this is likely an early days approach I'll throw it out there:

I'd really love a scene with Gordon sitting-in with a crime scene analyst after they've recovered a piece of Batman's equipment, like a batarang or segment of his bat-line or even the utility belt, and they break down how they don't know what it's made of and doesn't match anything commercially available. Just a little build up of Batman's mystique and hinting at him designing and making his own equipment. It could also hint at Gordon kind of piecing together the deal with this mysterious Bat-Man.

 

[MrsKent26]

This might fit better in a thread about visuals, but it would have to tie into the story as well.

I've always wanted to see a batman portrayal with more horror elements mixed in. In past portrayals, it's been fairly obvious even from the start that he is a man in a costume. Of course, he will always be that, but it would be interesting to see him go to greater lengths to disguise his humanness when encountering friends and foes, like sticking to shadows, working his costume to be creature-esque, altering his voice and movements, etc. He'd appear to onlookers more like the photo above, and of course such a thing implies a conscious effort on his part to disguise himself, but why wouldn't he? He becomes something else when the batsuit is worn.

I've always wanted to see his first batman outing presented as an elegant and perhaps frightening affair. In past screen iterations, his first outing was somewhat awkward (like in BB where he makes that "nice coat" comment and breaks the immersion a bit), which is not bad per say, but it would be interesting to see a first outing where he just melts into it, transforms utterly and any adjacent characters are left wondering what exactly they just saw.

This is a scene I could go for
