 Your Pitch for a Third Tim Burton Batman Flick
With Michael Keaton's career on full rebound mode, and the Batman being a superhero with a lot of storylines during his autumn years, I feel it is very possible to do s Third Tim Burton directed Batman movie. The one rule though is it has to be a continuation of the universe created in Batman and Batman Returns.

 Re: Your Pitch for a Third Tim Burton Batman Flick
The villains would still be Riddler and Two-Face. Billy Dee Williams would play Two-Face.

 Re: Your Pitch for a Third Tim Burton Batman Flick
Is he too old now? Keaton would play an excellent old Bruce Wayne, but Billy Dee might be too old now. I agree the Riddler has to be there, and I think audiences want a good Riddler right now. Batman has not been the world's greatest detective in his last few films. Pairing him up against Riddler right now just makes sense.

 Re: Your Pitch for a Third Tim Burton Batman Flick
Pretty much. But now that Robin Williams is dead who do you cast? Johnny Depp could do the role very well, but he'd have to put in some real effort because his schtick is getting old

 Re: Your Pitch for a Third Tim Burton Batman Flick
Get Jim Carrey again. Why not? He is an actor. Get him to play it differently. More grim. More evil. Not so zany. It could work.

 Re: Your Pitch for a Third Tim Burton Batman Flick
Both Carrey and Keaton could star and make it's story like Logan style , so Batman would die in the end.

 Re: Your Pitch for a Third Tim Burton Batman Flick
I think a third Keaton Batman should explore closure for Batman similar to Dark Knight Rises, but more methodical, which is why Riddler would be the perfect villain

 Re: Your Pitch for a Third Tim Burton Batman Flick
Arkham Asylum. Hostages. Basically Die Hard with Batman. That might be too simple for Burton. I think he's lost it though, Keaton hell yeah, his Batman is still the best.

 Re: Your Pitch for a Third Tim Burton Batman Flick
Burton could pull off the atmosphere. Also Arkham feels very much in tune with the timeless feel of the first two entries.

 Re: Your Pitch for a Third Tim Burton Batman Flick
This is actually a great idea. Now that Wonder Woman has been established as the leader of the new DCU they can play around with Batman a little more. Remaking Batman Forever "the right way" or even continuing on long after Batman and Robin would give the picture a massive nostalgia boost alongside the mountainous hype that goes along with anything regarding Batman. I think people would be way more into this than a non-Affleck directed solo Batman. $155m / $435m

 Re: Your Pitch for a Third Tim Burton Batman Flick
Yeah, but Burton has just been so bad for 15+ years now. I don't see him pulling a George Miller Mad Max kind of reimagining.
Fuck it, bring in George Miller. At least you'll get an awesome batmobile sequence.
