Ok, I'm seeing all kinds of rumors floating around cyberspace these days regarding the future of the Batman franchise with Christopher Nolan at the helm. So, let's set a few things straight and I'd love to hear some of your opinions as well! With The Dark Knight closing in on $500 mill. Us gross, Christopher Nolan has most definitely proven himself! Even if there were some who just didn't like or didn't get "Memento", "The Prestige" or "Insomnia"... some of my favorite movies of all time, by the way! I Love a Mind F*&K Flick!!!!! But, I don't think many people can argue his talent with the success of The Dark Knight! Dark, gritty, bold, beautiful... you don't even want me to go into full 'review mode', because I could ramble on forever about how great this movie was! The question of the day...is... what will he do next?

That is the question on everyone’s lips.
The man behind the second highest grossing film of all time (unadjusted) hasn’t signed on to direct a third installment yet, and The Dark Knight’s producer Charles Roven has said that nobody has even talked to Nolan yet because he is on vacation.

You bet a lot of people want to make a third film - especially after the amount of coin that That Dark Knight has taken in ($871 million and counting!).
So how will Chris Nolan feel, and will he want to

Dude here again. I've returned to normal, linear narrative this week. (And no, I did not do that specifically so I could be in a world where Space Chimps tops a list). However, because I've become mildly obsessed with Christopher Nolan in the past few weeks, I've decided this week should be written in the style of Nolan's 2002 film Insomnia. By which I mean this is a reasonably done adaptation of a Norwegian original. This weekend, yet another contender steps up to the plate to take down the winged one. And once again, there is a failure to do so. But it was close, and it looks like next wee...

Photo: Warner Bros. Pictures Names many people seem to forget are those of the producers and while at the press junket for The Dark Knight we spoke with Emma Thomas and Charles Roven, both producers of the film with plenty to say about the cast, the crew, the locations, the ups and the downs. Thomas is not only a producer on the film she also doubles as director Chris Nolan's wife and has produced all of Nolan's films including Memento, Insomnia, Batman Begins and The Prestige. Roven has produced several films you would have heard of as well, including the recently released Get Smart and The Bank Job as well as Twelve Monkeys and is currently set to bring The Flash to the big screen should it ever come to pass. Check out what they had to say. Can you
