The Dark Knight Rises The Dark Knight Beyond (where I'd take the series after TDKR)

Love your ideas.

Though I would leave Sionis as Mask and leave Gordon alive.

 

Well, the domain www.shadowofthebatthemovie.com and shadowofthebat-themovie.com is still registered by WB

BTW I love the idea of Blake being a Nightwing and batman and a cameo of Bruce training him at the mountains

 

I'd leave the story as is (the Dark Knight trilogy, that is. I think its perfect). Yet, I also like your idea for Blake's story arc. It feels very natural. No to your Alberto idea; Black Mask can be written as his own character.

 

I was kind of hoping against hope for a "Jokerz" type gang to be featured in a third Nolan Batman film. Good stuff so far. I agree with Wooden Alligator about keeping Black Mask as his own character.

 

This would make a great fan fiction. I'd be up for helping write it if I weren't already consumed by Summer homework and other plans.

 

I always thought Blake repaired the bat signal, The Bat would become his Batmobile because it can fly, and he would modify any spare batsuit parts to his liking

I'd kill to have a Batman Beyond movie after having those thoughts

 

This is one of the few things that I think would be a pretty cool way to take things, especially including Black Mask and having Bruce train him.

 

It's too predictable. Bruce training Blake in the mountains? Meh.

 

I think the environment in which Bruce trains Robin should be different. This is not the league of shadows and Blake is not Wayne. He's his own person. You can run the parallels without repeating the training sequences from Begins. No mountains for me personally. Or at least somewhere in Italy would be better.

At least this is what i've been writing. I said 2 weeks ago that i was writing something of a Nightwing meets Beyond story for Blake. And some of your stuff is pretty cool.

I like some of your ideas, like the Black Mask and joker gang.

 

Well it's late, and im tired lol, so i dont want to get into it too much. But JGL going out as Nightwing for a while, to become the Batman with that Beyond suit is still on the table for me.

I think his evolution is very important. The concept of Robin constantly growing as a character should be the only reason to think up any kind of story. Just like Nolan did with Bruce's arc.

The villains are confusing. There's a lot of options but it has to fit with Blakes experiences. Im liking the Black Mask/Jokers gang thing. Im liking the detective story with Nygma. Im liking the Penguin starting something underground and becoming Mayor story. Im liking Blake recruiting youngsters from the orphanage for his very own "sons of batman". Even Mr Freeze down the road as a main villain to a Batman set in the future with his new suit...

There's SO many options if ur continuing the story. That's the beauty (and FRUSTRATION) of Nolans ending to TDKR.

 

To BluRay. t: It should end with this film the way it was intended to. Leaving it with the possibilities for Blake works well as an ending, but I don't find it very interesting as a possible beginning that I'd like to see continued....and I honestly don't think that's what they wanted to leave possible with it. It was meant as an ending, period, to that cinematic world and everything involved with it, and I'd be glad to see it stay that way. I really hope that WB doesn't try to do spinoffs from this.

 

They wont, but we're just talking about where it could go. For the peeps who would like to see it carry on, even just on paper.

 

Oh I know...and like discussed elsewhere, I'd do a "Blake and the Sons Of Batman" approach....starting it about ten years after TDKR.

 

I would like something crazy.

Damian Wayne is born (yeah far-fetched that she was pregnant...and that would come alive of from the accident.But for the sake of it). Neo-Batman (JGL) knows about this after a while and takes care of him. Has he grows up , NB accepts him as his second , and givse him his own name (Robin).

2nd movie would basically be a Death in the Family spin. JGL would die at the hands of Joker , who doesnt recognize him as the real Batman so he kills him. Bruce would come back once again , much older and starting to get suspicious about who Robin really was.

Maybe its a very shhitty idea t:

I really like the way Nolan treat some of Batman myths. He created a formidable universe. Heck , i would love to see a whole movie dedicated to the League of Shadows.

 

The sons of batman thing is cool, maybe even the death in the family story. But yeah, obviously Damien cant be in this universe. Maybe if a year or so had passed from the time Bruce was tossed in the pit and his return. But thats not the case.

 

Even if they DID continue with John Blake's story, I don't think Damian should be involved as Robin. John Blake isnt Dick Grayson

 

If anything I'd want to do something where it's evolved from just one man in a suit, and to give everything a different dynamic than just what they got before with some different people.

Actually...you know what I'd like to do as a trilogy? Jump way forward with each installment. You're in Batman Beyond-ish time by the second, then way into the future by the third. That way you're really evolving the ideals and legacy of what Batman established, and spanning truly epic measures of time with each prior story really being the stuff of legend to the next.

 

I've followed Batman stories all my life. From comics , movies , tv...and i will never understand internet's love for Batman Beyond.

Can you imagine Damian discovering he was the son of the original Batman , that also killed his mother ? Kinda wicked

 

But he DIDN'T kill her, just like he didn't kill Ra's Al Ghul. As long as Damian knows that, he shouldn't be a demented and brooding Robin
