The fact that there will be another Batman film in Christopher Nolan’s presumptive trilogy is assumed by just about everyone, despite the fact that there has been no formal announcement of the film. But in the runup to the release of Nolan’s Inception, which opens on July 16, there is already some talk about what the next Batman film might look like.

Wally Pfister is the cinematographer responsible for all of Christopher Nolan’s features from Memento on, and his photography was one of the things I liked best about The Dark Knight. He captured Chicago-as-Gotham with a simplicity and clarity that was very uncharacteristic of most superhero films. Now he’s talking about possibilities for the third film, including the option of 3D. Hint: don’t expect Batman 3D.

Cinematical spoke to Pfister when the Dallas Film Society presented him with the Star Award for accomplishments in cinematography. The site promises a full interview in which Pfister explains the “mutual disinterest” he and Christopher Nolan have for 3D. But they do quote him saying,

What Chris and I have talked about is doing something cool and something interesting…Brad Bird was [saying] ‘you’ve got to shoot the whole thing in IMAX!’ I was like, yeah, I’ve talked to Chris about that.

There’s also another comment, which seems to refer to shooting more of this upcoming film in IMAX:

But I think Chris is game for doing something interesting like that, Lord knows that the 3-D fad might pass by the time that summer comes around.

AICN, meanwhile, got a few more of Pfister’s comments from a tipster. Both the cinematographer and Nolan are disinterested in digital cinematography and very much prefer to shoot on film. That’s the root of their disinterest in 3D, which Pfister said is “great for like amusement park rides like the ‘Honey I Shrunk The Kids’ ride at Disneyland.” Pfister also called 3D a distraction and not realistic.

The appeal of IMAX and the disinterest in 3D both come from that love of shooting on film. While 3D lacks realism, shooting in IMAX has huge latitude, and captures incredible detail. The downside to IMAX is that the cameras are bulky and loud, and the format is expensive.

FYI, Batman on Film is saying that Warner Bros. will officially announce the third Batman film in July. Which isn’t that much of a deductive leap, as Nolan hasn’t been interested in talking about Batman while he finishes Inception, and that movie is released in July. Plus, there’s that little Comic Con gathering in San Diego. So expect more news in July.

I saw that yesterday, but the picture was from far away and couldn't tell the figure quite well. It looks to fit the look of the vehicles, but I want to see it in action in a trailer or something

 

[CollectorEmtee]

Yeah, me too. At first I was a bit surprised/dissapointed that Batwing will be in Nolan universe and I hope he won't take it too far this last time.

Its starting to grow on me slowly and the fact that Nolan likes to have all Batman gadgetry based on reality somehow keeps me calm...

Never really liked Anne but this is the first pic where I think she looks hot:

She looks ok, but if they where going with that look it would have been better to cast Ashley Greene.

 

[CollectorEmtee]

Ashley Green? Meeeeh........She is nice looking but don't think she have the experience they needed......Just look at the actresses they were choosing from....Ashley didn't even get close...

 

[Orange Splice]

Same here. I wasn't interested in the Batwing (despite LOVING it as a kid), but you are right about Nolan's path to have everything pretty realistic/logical in terms of design. I really can't wait to see this film. It is going to be tough to follow The Dark Knight, but I am sure the film will be a blast.

Looking good! Can't wait...

 

[Chandler_90]

I literally can't wait for this film, the news that there is going to be a 6 minute clip added to IMAX releases of MI4 has also got me massively excited.

My one real wish is that Nolan goes fully IMAX on it and downscales to fit regular screens.. as a full IMAX res copy on Blu Ray is the stuff dreams are made of imo

 

[CollectorEmtee]

I think he won't go fully IMAX as its impossible for some shots. Seen mostly IMAX cameras on sets although few 35mm were present too. But he definitely want to raise the bar and use IMAX as much as possible.

I like this Nolan comment: ”We’re looking to do something technologically that’s never been done before”.

Probably not, as you've said it could be technically impossible..

Either way I am immensly interested to see the results!

 

[CollectorEmtee]

Tell me about it! Shame I won't see the IMAX prologue....Fingers crossed for online release...

Don't see why people want to see Bane so bad he has the most leaked set photos of the whole movie.Batman could be wearing a new suit or anything.
