While I don’t really like the Court of Owls, they would be appropriate for this universe, considering what the previous film revealed about the Waynes.

Ooo I hadn’t thought about that, but yeah I can see how that could work

Pleaaase Ra’s! Since this is newbie Batman I feel they could introduce him in an interesting way… though it may just be like Batman Begins, so… they might not go that route… hmm :thinking:

I feel like he’s too inexperienced currently to go after the Court, no?

One reason I hate the actual comic story is that I can’t buy a seasoned Bruce being essentially beaten by the Court of WASPs. So that would be an improvement.

I feel like scarecrow could be such a cool character to add an even greater horror layer to the film. Also, since part of what I personally enjoyed about the first movie was its lack of mysticalness and magics, I feel like it can keep that dark, gritty vibe without adding too much out-of-place whimsy.

I’ve always thought it was telling that Scott Snyder originally pitched Court of Owls as a Dick Grayson Batman story.

The problem I have with doing the Court of Owls NOW is because we just went through a movie all about political corruption with Carmine Falcone. It would feel repetitive to do that again.

As for the sequel…that’s a tough one. The world crrated by Matt Reeves has a realistic tone, but it doesn’t go hyper-realistic like the Nolan movies. And we still have room to do some more out there and stylized stuff

I think it would be interesting if they tried to use Mister Freeze. True, it kinda goes in a more science fiction route. But if you connect his past to the Wayne family, we could further Bruce coming to grios with who his parents really were as opposed to his idealized version of them

Mister Freeze deserve to get another chance, drop the ice puns, he can be a cruel, cold & menacing villain. :chill:

His backstory can be portrayed as pretty heart wrenching too. Take away the puns and the cartoony-ness and it could be pretty dark and intense
