Do you think Batman 3 will be as successul as "The Dark Knight"?
As far as critical acclaim, box office, and everything else goes, do you all think that Batman 3 will be as successful was TDK?
I think it's very possible but it'll take a lot of hard work, of course. Personally, I think the one thing that'll truly make it possible is if they make the Joker return, and get someone just as talented or more talented than Ledger. If the Joker is to return, they need someone like Johnny Depp.

Not unless a half decent actor dies while making it.
I wish people would stop saying ignorant things like this. Only a small fraction of people went to see TDK because Heath died. Before he died there was a large amount of hype going around for the movie, and if he hadn't died the movie would've still broken all the records it did, and been a huge hit. People act as if the entire crowd went to see it because Heath died, and that's not the case at all.
Hahaha. Heres what Batman and Robin should have been like...

The only ignorance is thinking his death did not effect the movie sales...and assuming sales would be the same and the same records would be broken,just shows how ignorant you are...so dont come to a battle of wits...unarmed 😉

Good point.He's always making ignorant comments like this cause he is just jeoulous that TDK made so much money at the box office and blew away that crapfest Batman 89's performance box office wise.as far as the topic of the thread is concerned,if the script is as good as TDK's was,its very possible that it will be as successful as TDK was box office wise.the one thing it has going for it that TDK had is that people loved Batman Begins so much since it was the only one made at that point that did justice to the comicbook,that they were much eager to see TDK than they were BATMAN BEGINS.many people made the mistake of thinking Batman Begins was just another sequal to that crapfest Burton/schumacher franchise and because of Batman and Robin were hesitant about seeing another batman movies at the theatres.because of how awesome TDK was,I think it will come very close box office wise to what TDK did.opening weekend is guaranteed to make it a smash hit cause of TDK.as far as being just as critically acclaimed,again that all depends on the script.i totally disagree though about having the joker return though,that would be too much like a tv show if they did that,lets see two face survive that fall and have this be HIS movie.

Do you really think Two-Face survived?
I sure do.if you recall,gordon and bruce didnt appear to be all that concerned and heartbroken about it all like you would think they would be if he was indeed dead.I think knowing Nolan,he is doing with two face what he did with gordon,making people believe he is dead when he really isnt.I just cant imagine Nolan being an idiot and introducing a key villian like him briefly like he did just to kill him off like that.thats a shumacher/burton thing.I cant imiagine Nolan beig stupid like that like those two idiots Burton and schumacher.if it turns out he really is dead,my opinion on Nolan as the only great batman film director,just went down the toilet and i wont love TDK nearly as much as i do now.

good minds think alike.. I've always felt that Two Face is indeed alive and somewhere in Arkham Asylum, so he could definitely return to wreak havoc in Batman 3

no. More successful than Begins? Sure. As successful as TDK? no. As good a film as it was, imo it's ludicrous to claim that Ledger's death and the subsequent publicity had nothing to do with the success of the movie.
