Third Batman Film to be Completely Shot in IMAX

By • August 26, 2009 • 1 Comment

So there still seems to be talk about the sequel to the Dark Knight, especially as buzz for Nolan’s Inception is beginning to build and that’s where the guys over at AICN say that Nolan and the WB are already making plans on the style of the next film.

Ain’t It Cool News has reportedly heard a rumor that Nolan and Warner Bros. are going to follow-up The Dark Knight with a third film and that it will be shot entirely in IMAX format.

Here’s what they had to say:

The third chapter of Christopher Nolan’s caped crusader’s saga could very well be fully shot in IMAX, not IMAX Digital – but the beautiful, stunning IMAX that we saw pieces of in The Dark Knight.

Now this is something that I’m sure a lot of you will feel is a no-brainer. Nolan blew us away with the IMAX sequences in that film – but it was a very tough process to work in. Mainly due to the limitations of how many available real IMAX rigs there are. Not only that, but lenses had to be created, adapted and God forbid one broke down. Part of the reason that Nolan went forward with Inception first – besides taking a creative break from the cape and cowl adventures… was possibly to create a few new IMAX cameras made to his specs. Once again – the cost of shooting an entire feature film on IMAX… the stock, the time it takes to reset, to load, to move the cameras… Well… it is daunting, but as Nolan proved with The Dark Knight - the difference is stunning.

Assuming this third film will happen this doesn’t surprise me at all. A few things to look at, this is a way to make the sequel different than the previous 2 films in terms on look. Secondly, you have the opportunity to make a pile more money being that IMAX theaters charge a littel extra. Lastly, you have an opportunity to again make the franchise and the third story stand out. I hope Nolan does this and Warner Brothers gives him the budget to make this movie like this. I guess as Inception nears production end later this year and the marketing begins for next summer we will hear a lot more on what Nolan will actually do in the meantime this is just an other good rumor to tie us over.
