    At this point I don't think a Robin movie is out-of-the-question.

    I gotta admit I'm dubious.

    Scorsese? Surely he's got better things to do? I mean don't get me wrong, I'd LOVE to see him do this, but I have a hard time believing he'd go for it unless he's a huge Batman fan and has had this on his Bucket List for a long time.

    That alone makes this hard to believe. WB making a Joker movie? Sure. Them getting him to direct? I have my doubts.
    Though much is taken, much abides; and though
    We are not now that strength which in old days
    Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are,
    One equal temper of heroic hearts,
    Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
    To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

    --Lord Alfred Tennyson--

    I admit, the idea of the director behind one of the most prolific gangster movies directing a film about the Clown Prince of Crime would be extremely surreal .

    He's a producer, not director. Focusing on that detail of the story is like focusing on the taste of cyanide after you've ingested it.

    Wonder Woman smashing several glass ceilings and her RT score beg to differ...

    Never gonna happen, but it would obviously have the potential to be the greatest movie ever made.

    Pre-Flashpoint, Cass went from 17 to 20, while Barbara was in her late 20's/early 30's.

    Nowadays, Cass is 16/17, and FakeBabs is in her early 20's.

    The article brings out that he'll co-produce not direct. Todd Phillips will direct.

    I wonder if they're going to keep Leto or use Flashpoint as an excuse to reboot Joker with this film?

    Who will be the villain in the Alfred solo film that takes place outside of DCEU canon?

    Yep, they made 1 good movie after 3 disappointments, meaning the avalanche of questionable ideas they have planned are all going to turn out great!

    A Joker origin movie seems so counter productive. There is so much else that needs set up and developed in the DCU and Joker isn't something that needs so much fleshing out, but I guess this might be an elseworld's story.

    Zero chance of this unless it is Damian. I still think DC/WB is scared and ashamed of the Robin identity because of the poor 90s Batman movies.

    They're obviously not gonna use Steph, Dick is confirmed as going to be Nightwing, and Jason is dead. Unless they do a movie set in the past, a Robin movie would have either Tim or Damian. And since Damian's whole appeal comes from him being a kid, and this isn't Kick Ass so like Hell are they going that route, that leaves Tim.

    The Flashpoint reboot is definitely an option but I have the feeling Leto is done as Joker either way. He was very unhappy about how much he was edited out of Suicide Squad. I also have the feeling that the Batman will be Affleck's last as Batman. I'd be genuinely shocked if it wasn't. I think we are slowly moving away from Snyder's vision of the DCEU and more towards Johns' vision.
