NEW LIVE ACTION BATMAN MOVIE IN 2015

[Goober]

Dan Lin: Right. The only one right now as you probably know, they’re [Warner Brothers] unveiling their DC strategy in January so you’ll hear more about that and they’ll speak about that in the new year. The only other one besides Justice League that I’m working on is the Suicide Squad. I don’t know if you know that DC comic.

So, is Christopher Nolan pretty much one of the best director/writers around now? Who's at the top these days?

Coen Brothers.

Coen Brothers.

I can go with that...been on the scene longer than Nolan, and of course, there's two of them, so that helps.

The best directors are obviously all over quality, so most of the best directors from this generation only have a few movies under their belt.

Nolan is definitely in the conversation, but I'd put the Coens at #1 right now. Nolan, Darren Arnofsky, Wes Anderson, Paul Thomas Anderson, David Fincher, Spike Jonze and David Cronenberg are coming into their own (Cronenberg turned into a completely different director this decade) while guys like Martin Scorsese, Quinten Tarantino, Spike Lee and Gus Van Sant continue to impress as the years go by.

If Inception turns out to be as awesome as it looks, then I think Nolan will be number 1.

No Batman news, I just wanted to post this Inception article, because, well...it looks fucking awesome and Christopher Nolan IS the Man. It's only a teaser article for a bigger article scheduled to come out Sunday. Hopefully that article hints at some Batman 3 news.

Bigger than Batman: Christopher Nolan says 'Inception' is 'the biggest challenge I've taken on'
January 13, 2010 | 7:46 am

On Sunday, the staff of Los Angeles Times Calendar section will be previewing key 2010 releases by Hollywood. This is an early look at one of the articles in that package.

Christopher Nolan So what exactly is “Inception”? That’s a popular question after a visually dazzling but enigmatic trailer was released for a film that didn’t exactly clear things up with its title.

Is it an international thriller? A story of madness and lost love? Or Hollywood’s very first metaphysical heist movie? The answer is “all of the above,” according to writer-director Christopher Nolan, whose follow-up to “The Dark Knight” seems to have Ian Fleming, the Wachowski Brothers and Sigmund Freud as its spiritual advisors.

“I think we’ve put a lot of different things into the pot with this one,” Nolan said this week during a break from the editing bay.

“I grew up watching James Bond films and loving those and watching spy movies with their globetrotting sensibility.... We get to do that here, not just geographically but also in time and dimensions of reality as well. We get to make a movie that’s expansive, I suppose you’d say, in four dimensions.”

The Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros. release is shaping up as one of the most intriguing releases of 2010. Leonardo DiCaprio leads a cast that includes Marion Cotillard, Cillian Murphy, Michael Caine, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Ellen Page and Ken Watanabe.

The film was produced by Emma Thomas, who is Nolan's wife as well as his career partner. She said that "Inception" is a story that requires a huge canvas. The pair didn't set out looking for a way to top their Batman epic in scope, that's just where Nolan's "Inception" script took them.

“It’s something that we had been talking about on and off for seven or eight years," Thomas said. "Coming off of the ‘The Dark Knight,’ the only thing we really knew is that we wanted to do something more personal. It seemed like the right time to do this. The fact that it’s really just an enormous movie -- that wasn’t ever really a factor in the decision. This story lends itself to a movie of this size."

A key part of the premise is corporate espionage by way of dream invasion, but motives and even reality are slippery in a film that toys with perception as its travels through time and space. The crew covered a lot of territory too, filming in six countries.

“This is the biggest challenge I’ve taken on to this point,” said Nolan, who may return to Gotham City for his next feature. “We’re trying to tell a story on a massive scale, a true blockbuster scale – the biggest I’ve ever been involved with. We tried to make a very large-scale film with ‘The Dark Knight’ and with this one we wanted to push that even further.”

If Nolan thinks this movie is his best yet, I can't even comprehend how good it is going to be.

"We'll be proud of our No. 3 slot," said Dan Fellman, head of distribution for Warner Bros., which released "The Dark Knight" and has hopes for more in the Batman franchise from its director, Christopher Nolan. "I can just give Chris Nolan a nudge that he's got to raise the bar."

Here are a few things that I’m now comfortable posting on BOF after doing some digging and talking with a few folks over the last several weeks. And remember, while I feel pretty good about the following, NOTHING is set in stone, so talk it with the proverbial grain of salt…

* While I won’t go as far as to say it’s a done deal, I’m almost certain that director Christopher Nolan has agreed to do BATMAN 3 and it most likely will be his follow-up to INCEPTION. I'll be highly shocked and surprised if this isn't the case and Mr. Nolan doesn't return.

* Look for an official announcement between now and the end of July 2010. Keep in mind that THE DARK KNIGHT was officially announced in July of 2006 -- two years prior to the release of the film. The wildcard here is Nolan’s INCEPTION. Will Warner Bros. (and Nolan) prefer to get the B3 announcement out of the way before the promotion of the film begins?

* I have to be very vague here, OK? But there’s some scuttlebutt that a major character in THE DARK KNIGHT might -- let me repeat, might -- return in BATMAN 3 (and I’m not talking about Two Face -- though Harvey could indeed return via flashbacks).

Looks like they're leaning toward recasting the Joker.
