Now... Brett Ratner reveals what he would do with it if he got the chance to do a Batman movie.
He tells MTV:
“As a kid, Batman was my thing. I’m a little jealous that I didn’t get to direct it, although Nolan did a great job. But there are so many characters in the Batman series, so many characters that I love, that the opportunities for spin-offs are endless.”
Did he mean to say sequels..instead of spin-off? I sure hope so because I think his notion is a terrible idea . Even though Bats has a loaded rogues gallery of villains to draw on To build an entire film around them without The Dark Knight around would be a mistake.
Remember Catwoman?
I'm afraid in Ratner's hands we would get a free-for-all ala Batman & Robin...As someone who enjoyed X-Men: The Last Stand more than most...I see where he could be tempted to do another comic book franchise...I imagine TDK in his hands though and a cold chill runs down my spine.
Ratner goes on to suggest Robert Downey Jr. for the Joker in future. flicks...
Now time for a sports break
