There has been clamor for another installment of the Chris Nolan Batman film franchise, especially with the success of the last film ‘The Dark Knight’, which was made extra memorable by the late Heath Ledger’s awesome and timeless performance.

While many from the film like producer Charles Roven have expressed a positive attitude towards another movie - this sentiment was naturally echoed by Warner Brothers, who are looking to another money train with the release of another Batman movie - all have agreed that the reins lie with Chris Nolan and David Goyer, who developed the story for the last two films.

Chris Nolan, for his part, has refused to commit to another Batman film, citing that he is still looking whether or not there is another storyline he sees himself investing in. However, he says some ideas have been thrown around, so we’d best wait and see what happens.

The series hails from the likes of fictional action superheroes like Superman, Iron man and many other superheroes who are more or less millionaires turned crime fighters at night. With unlimited financial backing and an ego to match, they roam the dangerous streets of the world ridding it of crime as they try to do good for the sake of the many. The persona of such individuals are quite unstable for they tend to have traumatic experiences in the past which brings out their inner evils but this time turning them to good. Batman started out as a comic character that was taken to the TV with the successful series. This was the time when gadgets and gizmos came to light that challenged the show’s special effects people to produce.
The Bat-phone as an example has been given some credit for the concept of the mobile phone which is now more common than computers. The Bat-Computer has become the representation of the developing computer industry that was at the time on the electro-mechanical side. The many innovations that were inspired by such forward thinking people in the movie industry that catered to our curiosity and thus filled the need are immeasurable.

Heath’s death, weighed heavy on the film but it performed better than expected partly due to the respect many gave to him. The Dark Night had him undergoing extensive research and experimentation to take on the character of the Joker. There are talks of more films but no solid facts have yet been put on paper but the characters have expressed interest.
There have also been no digital editing to the parts he made in the film, in order to preserve his overall character. The death of a stuntman mentioned in the previous post also tainted the film yet Heath topped all issues due to his untimely death being one of the hottest actors in Hollywood to date. He lived to the fullest and died so suddenly, people were so shocked at news of his demise. He is forever going to be part of the movie phenomenon that is Batman.

• Christopher Nolan’s first choice for the role of Harvey Dent was Matt Damon. But Damon turned it down. Many actors were considered in the cast before settling for Aaron Eckheart, including hugh Jackman, Ryan Phillippe and Josh Lucas to name a few.
• One bat suit was customized with nipples much the same as in Batman & Robin in 1997, as joke. The crew presented it to Christian Bale as the real bat suit, but immediately knew it was a joke. Fortunately, he got a glimpse of the design in pictures during the pre production. Although he still wore it and posed for publicity photos in the nipple suit.
• This is obviously the first Batman film to NOT have “Batman” in its main title.
• When the press asked why they chose Heath Ledger for the Joker role, Nolan replied “because he’s fearless”.
• Heath Ledger lived alone in a hotel room for a month to prepare for his role as the Joker. He wrote a diary and kept Joker’s thoughts and feelings to guide himself while portraying the character.

The director and co- writer of the Batman Begins and The Dark Knight film Christopher Nolan is not committed to another Batman sequel, clearing up that he does not usually line up projects after finishing a film. Gary Oldman is certain Nolan will return, and Bale said he would return if Nolan did. Oldman hinted in the third film Gordon would have to “hunt down Batman”. He has also speculated that the villain of the upcoming film may be the Riddler. Nolan explained that as long as he is directing, he is not including Robin in the franchise because Bale is still portraying a “young Batman”, which meant “Robin’s not for a few films”. In addition, Nolan considers the Penguin difficult to portray on film, explaining, “There are certain characters that are easier to mesh with the more real take on Batman we’re doing. The Penguin would be tricky.”

The Batman, one of the earliest Batman movies ever made which was in 1943, left a lot to be desired, especially when it came to its costumes. The costume didn’t fit well on the Caped Crusader, and his bat horns even looked like they came from the devil itself, it looked closer to that than the actual horns of a bat. Lewis Wilson, the actor who played Bruce Wayne and Batman, was amusing, but he really didn’t do much to endear his character to peoples hearts. When it comes to the Batman films, it seems as if they get better over time, which is good news to all Batman fans out there. If you loved the previous Batman movies, then it could be safe to bet that the next ones would be greater.
