Tim Burton's Batman 3 (2015)

[spideyman101]

I know this probably won't happen, and with Nolan's arrival it'd be stupid. But what if Tim Burton came back with new actors (and a white Robin)... and no Two-Face... and made the 3rd Batman film he planned before Schumacher took over?

Have it based on the events after Batman Returns and even have Danny Elfman come back with the famous score? Try to reboot that series to then do a 4, 5 and 6... or at least finish the trilogy and just make a 3 and then let Nolan continue with his seperate series...

It would be nice for some continuity. Officially separate Schumacher's films from Burton's...

On a side note... I bet you some main-stream, ignorant people out there are thinking, for some reason, that out of all the Batman films that they're ALL part of the same series and the timeline is something like this...

Batman Begins
Batman (1989)
Batman Returns
Batman Forever
The Dark Knight
Batman & Robin


And some nerd (who doesn't know too much about the comics or films) has put together a big timeline like this:

Bruce Wayne has become Batman and must fight Ra's Al Ghul (Liam Neeson) and Scarecrow (Cillian Murphy) and because of escalation must then fight Joker (Jack Nicholson) and once that's over he must deal with Penguin (Danny DeVito) and Catwoman (Michelle Pfeiffer). Then he is faced with Two-Face (Tommy Lee Jones) and Riddler (Jim Carry) with the help of Robin (whatever his name is ) and then faces a recurring problem when Joker (Heath Ledger) is discovered to be alive and still at large (and this time worst than ever!) as well as Scarecrow (Cillian Murphy) who has rose in the ranks again... and Robin has gone on vacation and cannot help! After this problem is over he then goes on to fight (with Robin) Freeze (Arnold Swartzenegger), Poison Ivy (Uma Thurman) and Bane ( ? )...

I can just about bet you there's some poor soul who's done that...

anyway... I think sometime in the future after Nolan's third Batman film, Burton should possibly come back and finish what was started with a 3rd Burton Batman film... then continue Nolan's films (and make it known that they ARE seperate "universes".

just a thought... I know it won't happen... just something to keep this nerd thinking...

No way! I'd much rather they do this. With DC making PG-13 animated movies why not bring back Burton to conclude his vision in this format? they could get all the original actors to do the voice acting and use an animated style that translates their visuals to the screen. Plus that way Gotham could be even more vast and their won't be any physical limitations for the actors. Even bring back Elfman I think that would be better. Burton did start out in animation after all so in a sense it'd be right up his alley.

sounds like you put a lot of work into this theory hmm

 

[Superwoman Prime]

I'm not sure Burton wants to return to the Batman franchise. He's moved on.

 

[Soundwave88]

I'm not sure Burton wants to return to the Batman franchise. He's moved on.

didnt Burton lose his rights to make anymore batman movies?

 

[Superwoman Prime]

Well yeah.

He could hypothetically go back to Batman. Not necessarily for a blockbuster film... more along the lines of an animated feature or series. There's no bad blood separating him from the franchise, since he did make $ for WB.

But it'll never happen.

 

[The Joker_1000]

The most I'd want him to do would be to make a animated series with him using the dark & gritty universe he created in his movies. However, Nolan is doing too good a job for Burton to be needed right now, if he were to be needed ever again for a Batman flick.

 

[Reflectionist]

I'm almost wanting, in my head, to see Nolan attempt a collaboration with Burton............ For a movie adaptation of DKR. Bring back some of the '89 cast. Everyone's about that age now...

 

[The Joker_1000]

Hell no, Nolan is doing fine on his own, don't bring backl anyone from the old cast, let Nolan do it his way.

 

[vanzetti]

i would just like to know his plan for the third movie, wasn't it going to be batmans redemption after the events of returns?

 

[DaRkVeNgeanCe]

I really appreciate your approach, but its never going to happen. Even after 89 Burton said he was done with Batman, the only reason he came back to do Returns is because WB told him, make it your film, make it a Tim Burton film (after months of pleading with him). 89 made so much money WB didnt think twice, they just wanted to cash in, plain and simple.

 

[RobC]

^ The Truth.

Ditto for Batman Forever.

 

[The Joker_1000]

It's too bad that we didn't get to see Burton direct the entire franchise.

Tee supposed Ghostbusters 3 solution, eh? Wouldn't have a problem to see that at all. A conclusion to the Selina/Bruce romance is LONG overdue

 

[BatmanForNever]

Actually I don't think anyone would assume that being as how the Joker died in 89...and this Joker just from pictures is obviously a different take on him.

It's obvious to even none fans that it's not in the same continuity.

 

[Majik1387]

I made a poster with sort of a similar idea not too long ago.

:shameless plug:

 

[Superwoman Prime]

Majik, I like it. Not without its curious points though. What would Penguin be doing there? He's dead. So is the Joker. Thinking you should've taken that last step in creative control and called it Batman: Resurrection.

 

[Majik1387]

lol I thought about that, but I did keep those two things in mind.

 

[RobC]

Oooooh, he's got an idea as well, let's hear it Majik.

IMO a 3rd Burton movie would have been a waste, it'd only have divided the fans even more, can you imagine a movie where Burton had even more creative control? Batman would wear a gimp suit or something. Not bashing Burton here, he did a good job, but BR is truly not a Batman film. And before you start, yes I know WB told him make a Burton movie, don't flame me...

 

[Majik1387]

Well, my Joker and Penguin idea would be more of a psyche thing with Bruce/Batman, due to a gas from the Scarecrow.
I'll explain my idea later.

[Reflectionist]

Pfft, Penguin had a very small role in Batman Returns, as far as the story goes, and Bruce's personal arc. Bruce was suspicious the entire way through. The story with him is more the love story between himself and Selina.

 

[Majik1387]

Okay....

 

[Reflectionist]

Okay....

Well, it's just a thought. Sorry.

 

[Bruce_Wayne29]

I like the idea of the animated movie and to tell you the truth it surprises me Warner hasn't thought of this already. Get Keaton, Elfman and the rest of the gang back. But I would rather get a DKR live action film directed by Burton with all of his cast.
