Warner Bros. movie exec. Jeff Robinov dropped a few little-but-big bombs  in a recent profile that the LA Times did on him. The one that’s more of a given concerns a fourth Batman movie, of which plans are apparently already in motion for (pending a discussion with Christopher Nolan.) Nobody should really be shocked by this  —DARK KNIGHT made waaaaaaaaay too much money for the puck to stop any time soon  — but I guess the real question is over how much involvement monsieur Nolan will have. Supposedly, he’ll be producing, but it’s otherwise being talked about as a reboot...and I think people ought to chill about that. I don’t think they’re going to be telling the origin over again after the whole escalation game runs its course. It’ll probably be a reboot to the effect that BATMAN FOREVER was a reboot.

The other tidbit concerned a JUSTICE LEAGUE movie, which is apparently on track after that MORTAL movie was unfortunately cancelled a couple years ago. That would seem to say that things have changed since Diane Nelson apparently ruled out a JLA movie last year. My sense is that the team movie would be treated as its own entity, in its own universe, without any direct ties to the solo flicks  — even if the same characters are featured. If mainstream fans were able to accept that the new movie Batman’s similar-but-distinct to the old movie Batman, I don’t see it being that hard to reconcile this kind of variation. And lord knows how long comic fans have gotten used to concurrent realities and continuities...

With this news, I really don't care about Batman if Nolan isn't involved in some way and I could care less about a JLA movie.

We can only hope these will be good

Finally, a reboot of the Batman series! A Live-action JLA movie doesn't interest me at all, DC's characters are too hard to bring to the big screen.

I think Batman #4 should be the Dark Knight Returns. Zach Snyder already expressed interest in it...just saying

The rumor of there being a Justice League movie is just a rumor that got out of control the person interviewing Jeff Robinov assumed there would be a Justice League movie and wrote it down look at the interviews he never says there will be one only the interviewer speculated.  This article really summed up why there will probably not be one soon and even predicted a bunch of sites would report the rumor as confirmation.
 
The bigger thing to pay attention to is Jeff Robinov said that just because Wonder Woman has a show does not rule out her getting a movie.

These reboots and remakes need to stop !!!! >.<
 
DC can barely put out a live action movie with a single character, how in the hell are they going to make a team movie, other then the newer Batman movies, V and Watchmen they have a horrible track record.

Justice League? Get going on The Flash already!

I suspect that the decision was partially influenced by the fact that the Avengers movie is getting more and more interest (granted so far it gfot some pretty sweet build-up in the form of the individual character movies).

meh on a reboot batman...yay on JLA

If Nolan isn't doing the Batman movie then i don't it would be good.But JLA movie will see

" I have dreamed of a JLA movie my whole life.  Please let it be good. "

ok...who want's a worlds finest movie before seeing a JL movie?

Batman 4 should be TDKR...or...dare I say it...BATMAN BEYOND!!!!

So a Justice League movie with absolutely no connection to the individual members films? So let get this straight. DC is doing the exact opposite of what Marvel has been doing, making a whole universe with individual movies, and instead going for the easy way and just throw them together? Pass.

Personally, I'd like to see a new stab at Batman, and I'm game for a JL movie. Wonder Woman and Flash films would be awesome too. Unfortunately, DC has said similar things many times before, and I'm not going to see hold my breath waiting for what Robinov talked about.

I wouldn't like to see someone new take the reigns of the Batman franchise. It'd be way too cool if Nolan stayed on and Bale came back and Hathaway remained as Catwoman and the Penguin, Black Mask, and Two-Face have an all out gang war and everyone would live happily ever after in the best comic to movie franchise ever! Mwa ha ha ha ha

Another Batman reboot!? That sounds a little greedy. I can totally understand DC/WB wanting a Justice League movie though, what with Marvel doing the Avengers and all. I think they should have had character based movies for some of its members before doing an all in one, but it could be good.

Am I the only one alive who didn't like Nolan's Batman films? That wasn't Batman. I don't know if you guys know this but Batman is a detective. Bale's was written as a plain old vigilante with some gadgets (loved the grapple gun though). I guess if they plan to make a stand alone JLA movie it doesn't matter. I have such low hopes for a JLA movie. After Superman Returns........I mean he's got to be the easiest character to get right after the Punisher and they couldn't do it. Who knows what J'onn, WW, and Aquaman will be like.  As a big Wonder Woman fan I'd bet my wiener they royally, no pun intended, eff her up. 
  
This is the part where everyone yells at me and I cry lol =D

Not a DC-Fan at all, plus they don't keep their promises. They're like FOX. Only character that I enjoy is Green Lantern.

Batman franchise should end with #3. It's just going to get all Batman Forever on us, and we're going to get pissed off. 
 
JLA movie sounds awesome! BUT i'm afraid that it'll be really hard/wont be well done

Could someone please explain how Batman Forever was a reboot? Was it because someone else took the reins and decided to change the overall look of the characters, added more cheese and less interesting content, with a host of melodramatic over-actors?
 
If so, I'm scared for what someone might do to Batman. Although I do think a "less real-world analog", and a take on the character set in not easily discernible time-period would do wonders for him; I love the pseudo-20s/50s/90s technology of Batman: The Animated Series. It opens up the world to the fantastic and unsusal so that foes like Clayface and Killer Croc are easy to accept, AND it would allow a more seamless integration into the worlds of Superman and Wonder Woman, making a JLA movie more seamless and acceptable as well.
 
While I do enjoy the take Nolan had in many ways, I did not see much detective work, and the backdrop city in the second movie was NOT Gotham City by any stretch of the imagination. Of course it can easily be argued, and probably will, that many interpretations of Batman have existed over the years and all are valid (except that those who truly love Batman ignore Brave and the Bold, Adam West, and the Superfriends, like "that weird dude" from high school you accidentally run into at your reunion).
 
Quick Edit: Ok I admit, that Batman started to suck starting in April 1940 and didn't quit sucking until after Crisis...so there's 50 years of suckage to account for.

Idris Elba for J'onn J'onzz & Michael Jai White for Jon Stewart.

JLA wouldn't work as a movie, imo... See the difference between the JLA and the Avengers is that the JLA has way bigger names. I mean Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman all in one movie is enough, then you add the soon to be popular GL in the mix along with the fan favorites like Flash and Martian Manhunter and now your paying for all these actors and effects... Ugh, just a lot of stuff there. 
 
Now a World's Finest movie I can get behind. We're long over do for a Superman/Batman crossover. 

I would love to see the Flash movie first.

He's shown that he's good at taking flamboyant characters and putting a modern-day twist on them.  "

This will be amazing if they can get a good cast. especially if Christian Bale will continue as the Bats.

I swear I would be rich by now if I got a million dollars for everytime a fanboy pooped on themselves in disgust whenever a company decided to make a character even more popular than they are with a movie/game/show/song/whatever. lol

Interesting.

Meh,he understands one aspect of the batman character and tries to take it too far.Personally i felt TDK was vastly overrated.His batman is just a dude in kevlar,i for one can't wait to see him go and we finally get someone who's willing to take some risks instead of playing it safe with the realism crap.Only reason i'm excited for TDKR is due to bane,had they gone for riddler or some other "realistic" villian then i would'nt have bothered.

If only a Batman movie would, someday, show the Detective aspect of Bats just a tiny bit.... "

Speaking of DC. A new glimpse at the Wondy costume right here:
