Will Nolan Return for a Third Batman Movie?

The Los Angeles Times has posted the first part of its three-part interview with Batman Begins and The Dark Knight director Christopher Nolan in which he briefly addresses what will determine whether he'll be back for a third film:

Well ... let me think how to put this. There are two things to be said. One is the emphasis on story. What’s the story? Is there a story that’s going to keep me emotionally invested for the couple of years that it will take to make another one? That’s the overriding question. On a more superficial level, I have to ask the question: How many good third movies in a franchise can people name? [Laughs.] At the same time, in taking on the second one, we had the challenge of trying to make a great second movie, and there haven't been too many of those either. It’s all about the story really. If the story is there, everything is possible. I hope that was a suitably slippery answer.

Keep your digits crossed.

Are there even anymore villains left from the Dark Knight series?

Plenty

[love_that_reefer]

Not from the dark knight series. There are the normal villains like the Riddler, Poison Ivy, the Penguin and other but were not in the Dark Knight series which I thought they were trying to do going forward.

[HollywoodLeo]

I didn't know the "Dark Knight" series was separate from the general Batman comic.
(That's not sarcasm)

That shows you how much I read the comics.

Hey, I stopped a long, long time ago but I used to read them and don't remember anymore from the series. The characters loosely based on the characters in the dark Knight series. Oh well, as long as Nolan is writing and directing I am all for it. If not, please stop.

Oh well, as long as Nolan is writing and directing I am all for it. If not, please stop.

About sums up my opinion as well.
