If Under the Red Hood is #1, then I want Court of Owls for #2, and The Long Halloween for #3. I could not imagine any better way to handle Batman.

Dark Knight was full of it. He just underestimated Joker for quite a while.

Matt Damon as Robin.

Also, I really want a film where the main villain isn't one of the big ones. Make it like...the Mad Hatter, or Hugo Strange, or Hush.
Azrael would be cool as shit though, I'd love to see that as a movie plot.

THE BAT FAMILY. Oh man.
Dick Grayson already established as Nightwing
Tim Drake as Robin
Jason Todd as Red Hood
Then we've also got Babs, Azrael, Catwoman, Batwoman, Batwing, ALFRED, the list goes on.
Want to separate these films from previous Batflicks? Make them about family and trust. It will go miles, especially with a talent like Affleck.

I'm just really glad that we're finally getting a Batman film set in a universe with supernatural beings.

I want a more psychologically focused Batman, one that looks at how fucked up Batman is mentally and how his villains keep pushing him towards a break. I like how Grant Morrison's Batman run focused on that, though the execution was pretty poor. As much as I like seeing Batman kick ass, take names, and make criminals into quadriplegics, I think Batman doesn't get enough focus on his detective skills either. So, in short, I'd like to see a film that does things like a mystery film with a heavy focus on fucking with Batman's psyche till a 3rd act reveal showing the big bad and ending with the obligatory brawl.
In shorter, Court of Owls.

Wait, Batman is in Suicide Squad?
That's interesting.
That's interesting.
Yeah I think he's in the scene
where the Joker is joyriding or something with Harley Quinn. He rides on top of that silly looking pink lambo.
Thank you. I imagine in my hypothetical batman movie I'd have there be a breakout in Arkham as well as a murder of someone prominent in either the Asylum or Gotham and Batman has to use his detective skills to travel across the city, capturing and interrogating criminals to see who caused this.
Probably the Joker

Give me an adaptation of HUSH but where we don't know there's an imposter for most of the movie. Give me some JJ Abrams' level secrecy going into the movie (maybe even misdirection with another villain), and make it a thriller.

Aflleck directing would be amazing.
Also, I really want to see Batman step up as Bat-Dad.

Court of Owls / Robin Origin mix. Play up the whole aspect of Dick being marked as a Talon from birth, have the Flying Graysons killed when they refuse to hand him over and Bruce takes him in to investigate why the Owls are after him.
Bruce's children. ;-;
Only if they introduce his siblings first.
Yes, Bat-Dad is best Batman!

Detective focused storylines with deductions.
Bruce as a scientist, creating devices, working with Lucius.
Court of Owls.
Nightwing.
Bat dad (not literally, but being a father figure to Robins).
Batman maintaining contact with the JL, maybe a Superman cameo (even something as simple as a video chat from the fortress to the cave) to show their friendship developing.

I was wondering. Considering the kind off Joker Leto possibly is in the series, could it be that they finally adapt Endgame?!?!?
Could wok.

This. Then, kick some ass. I actually want to see Oracle's wits too. Hell, the whole Bat team!

Scratch 'finally'. Not sure why I wrote that.

I would love to see "I am vengeance, I am the Night, I am...Batman!" done in live-action, although I wonder if the scene would do that well on a non-animated platform, some might find it silly.
A Red Hood adaptation would be great. It's gruesome too, but seeing Barbara Gordon get paralyzed would be a holy shit moment but that would definitely only suit a rated R film. A lot of Batfamily love really would be fantastic.
I think it would be pretty cool if Poison Ivy appeared. Not as a main villain, but just a bit role. Honestly I would be happy if we get Harley mentioning her friend "Red" in Suicide Squad.

Honestly? Something out of Grant Morrison's run. A triolgy about the Black Glove that ends with a Batman Incorporated film would be great, it could even lead to the same kind of thing Batman did when he initially founded the Outsiders: "I'm out of the League and forming my own team, my own Bat-team!"
I just want to see Gaucho.

Oh and one of the movies opening with Batman taking down a secondary villain (like Calendar Man or Zsasz) in the first fifteen minutes or so would be pretty neat.

Do you remember there was a time when the whole world just sort of laughed at Ben Affleck and it was commonly accepted that he was a bad actor-and now for some reason he's revered? When did that happen?
Lol silly comics have fun not enjoying movies for the next 15 years or so.
- Complete Batfamily:
Dick, Jason, Tim, Babs, Steph, Cassie, Damian, even Batwing, Huntress, Bluebird, etc.
- More recent, non-Joker story lines. DKR adapted No Man's Land. Great. More like that.
- A more introspective look at the character, beyond just the trauma of losing his parents, savior complex and the Batman-Joker dichotomy.
- More detective work. It can be exciting and engaging, no matter what execs fear or focus groups might say.
He seems rather comfortable in it. White square-jawed action hero-types get chewed up and spat out with a frequency that should rightly worry any such actor.

Horror.
Oh also, can we have Batman in every film?
Also, do you know what would work? We're never going to see Batman take on smaller thugs and much detective work in the film's. A short run, Batfleck TV show, maybe 6 episodes of just standard stuff, leading to his big movie.
I'd love it!

Seriously, everyone wanting the BatFamily makes me happy. :3 Even though we probably will never get it...

Outlandish unrealistic monster villains like Clayface, Etrigan, and Man-Bat.
This here, with Affleck taking a few pages out of Fincher's book because I think his style would work well with the Court. The Scott Snyder/gothic horror kind of take on Batman is very different to Nolan and Zack Snyder's styles, and it'll look stunning.
This.
I'm bored with the same villains. Show me something else outside joker, two face, ridler, Catwoman, penguin. There's an entire legion of rogues out there. Use it!
