Christian Bale Reluctantly Commits to Batman 3

I wonder if Lucious will come back. He's kinda my favorite character (oddly enough). I mean, they kinda set it up so he could. By typing in his name, the machine broke, leading me to believe that by breaking it, it no longer "remains" at Wayne Enterprises. But they probably left it open like that on purpose.

ManOfIron.. I agree about Lucious... Any role that Morgan Freeman plays... He almost always does a kick @$$ job at it & it's often hard for him not to steal the show...

Hawk, I don't understand the last two quotes in connection to the article or Bale's comments. Could you elaborate or explain?

TheMyth you just repeated what i said lol i swear if Lucious gets "technical" and says "Well it may be broken but it's still laying in the basement so i'm not staying" I will pop a cap in a toaster! I'll do it too! Beware you damn dirty toasters!

BATS is on the run! LUSCIOUS is gone! No Tech! I kinda like that!!! We want it fresh right????

yeah...I can see why he's reluctant...i don't see how you can top the Dark Knight

I thought Revenge of the sith and Matrix revolutions were good movies. Revenge of the sith was the best of the 3 prequels and MAtrix rev. was better than reloaded, not so much the first one. IMHO

Im sure he will do another one..hes just being coy about it because, well as great a director as he is, he seems like a bit of a tosser to be honest!

I'm not ok with that?!!! Morgan freeman is a G that guy makes shitty movies good. And rhas hard to do. He was like a robin it was perfect he added that sidekick aura without being one. And that's cool so anyone agree?

The only problem I have is with the 3rd one is what will make it different then the first two I mean from the comment I read so far people want things to go backwards no more tech no batsuit just realistic Crap I mean that the problem I had with the 2nd one there was no character development for Batman in fact they made him less Batman by not meanting his mom and dad.

That the problem with these new batman movie they make batman weak

If they do Robin in needs to be Frank Millers Robin..an actual 13 year old kid thats just as confused and dangerous as Batman was/is..and isnt treated like some little brother or spoilt brat by Batman, hes trained and treated like a soldier. By the end of it he should be able to paint himself yellow and kick the shit out of Green Lantern!

or now that i think about it make robin in it but then have him become nightwing

I'm with Ror 100%. I just can't think of a single person who would be fit to play Robin.

I noticed that in some of Alex Ross's paintings, Robin looks a lot like Daniel Radcliffe, but I'm about as uncomfortable with Harry Potter as Robin as any of you are.

Shia Lebouf as Robin/ Nightwing.

First of all I just want to say that I really like batman as a character, especially when he's dark and mysterious. I really liked batman 1989 because it had that dark, serious tone to it. Then after that the sequels started getting stupid. Especially when they got to Batman Forever and Batman and Robin. They started adding in that dumb adam west shit back into it. That was dissapointing.
Then I started hearing about a new movie that was going to come out called Batman Begins where they were going to tell the story of Bruce Wayne before he became Batman, a story I know very well and like. Most importantly they were bringing that dark mysterious quality back into batman that batman movies hadn't seen for years. I was very excited about this and then I saw it. That movie, aside from ang lee's hulk and spider-man 3, was one of the biggest dissapointments in movies that I've ever seen. I've watched it over and over again, trying to figure out why I didn't like it, and it didn't make sense. I mean it was dark, realistic and was factually correct to the comics.(Something that a lot of superhero movies don't seem to get quite right these days.) Yet dipite all these good qualities that would normally make a real batman movie good, it didn't really feel good. And this isn't only me who thinks this. I've asked a lot of people how they trully felt about Batman Begins and about half of them said they didn't really care for it.
I still don't get it. It's like they got all the facts down perfectly for the movie and it was heading in the right direction, but it didn't feel like it was actually about batman. The movie made batman out like he was this dark, and serious force to be reckoned with yet at times he came off as this bumbling fool who made such stupid mistakes that the real batman, even when he was first starting out, would have never made. I understand that the movie guys were trying to make batman realistic in an attempt to bring him down to a human level that people could connect with, but that's not really batman.
The second movie wasn't good either. I liked it more only because of the joker, but other than him it still had that horendous, fake, outlandish realism to it that I can't stand. But, what can I say. Usually when I start talking like this it seems like no one's really listening to me, then they come back at me and say something like "Well obviously you're wrong because box office records with the dark knight were higher than any other movie." and you know what? They're right. People did like those movies. Box office records are a testament to that. But you know what else. People as a whole are goddamn, [frick]n' retards who can't discen what's actually good and what's not. It doesn't matter what other people say. Those movies were just absolutely terrible and I know I'm right.

deadledeadle, your opinion that the movies were absolutely terrible is fine. You didn't like them. it's a subjective thing. However, you don't get to say that as an absolute truth those movies were awful, and anybody who thinks they were good is a retard and expect people to respond positively. In fact your entire monologue was well written and thought out to that point. After that its just gets insulting.

i think Bale was signed for 3 or 4 movies and a superhero cross over movie (justice league). This was posted a while back

it is ridiculous for him to say "if the same director is in, i am in" as every actor says when asked for any possible given sequel.. since he is already signed.

This is what happens when they repeat what their agents tell them to say but at the same time contradicting themselves.

What were those mistakes Batman would never do?
