Yahoo had this to say :
"DC and Marvel Do Battle

Holy blockbuster, Batman! A buzzy article from the New York Times revealed that director Christopher Nolan is hard at work on another flick.
Of course, it's not like this is a huge surprise. There was no way Hollywood wasn't going to make a sequel to the "The Dark Knight," the third-highest-grossing movie of all time. Still, Nolan's participation will likely cause a huge sigh of relief among moviegoers. Remember when, back in the '90s, director Joel Schumacher replaced Tim Burton and nearly killed the franchise?
The forthcoming blockbuster (not yet titled) also illustrates the escalating battle between Warner Bros. -- which produces many movies based on DC Comics, including "Batman" -- and Disney, which recently acquired DC's biggest rival, Marvel Comics.
Indeed, both studios have a slew of superhero flicks coming soon to theaters. In the New York Times article, it's revealed that "Wonder Woman" and "The Flash," both longtime favorites from DC, are "expected to (be) announced" in the coming months. Additionally, DC's "The Green Lantern," starring Ryan Reynolds as the hero and Blake Lively as his lovely love interest, is scheduled for a 2011 release. There's even a rumor that Mr. Nolan may supervise the development of a "Superman" reboot.
Clearly DC has a lot of irons in the fire. But Marvel isn't surrendering the cineplex anytime soon. Not only does Sony's forthcoming "Spider-Man" reboot have a hot director at the helm (Mark Webb of "500 Days of Summer"), it'll also come to theaters in 3D. Barring any delays, the flick, which will focus on Spider-Man's high school trials and tribulations, will spin its way onto the big screen in 2012.
What's that, Marvel superfan? Can't want that long? No problem; "Iron Man 2" has you covered. Paramount's sequel to the surprise 2008 hit starring Robert Downey Jr. lands in theaters this summer and already has a sizable following in Search. Over the past month, online queries on the film are among Yahoo's top 3,000. Additionally, Web interest in the trailer shows no signs of slowing down. Kind of like the war between DC and Marvel."
well lets just hope that it does come to be, im hopin that they use the Riddler next, and its the same actors again, no substitutes, and its Johnny Depp as Edward Nigma. i want to see Catwoman too, but for now a movie with the Riddler seems more interestin to me, than one about Catwoman. i have a feelin that if Catwoman gets thrown in, the Nolan/Goyer franchise might lose its edge, because it might turn into some romantic garbage.....somethin that the Nolan/Goyer franchise hasnt been milkin like every other movie does..... sht even Transformers 2007 tried to shove romance down the throats of fans.... come on, its a scifi movie about aliens who can transform into vehicles and other things..... do we really need romance in a movie like that????...... anyway i hope that the sequel to the Dark Knight, dubbed "Gotham City" on some website gets made.
