Sure, Superman
Returns won't be in theaters for months, and everyone involved with Batman
Begins is outrageously busy for the next year or so. Please. As if any of that could stop Warner Brothers and
Legendary Pictures (which split the budgets 50/50 with Warners, and will do the same with the films' profits) from
going ahead with planning on the next installments of their beloved Both Christian Bale (a foregone conclusion) and Brandon Routh are on board if Warners picks up their options, and it's also expected that Christopher Nolan and Bryan Singer will back at the helms of their respective series. Though it's still possible that Routh will fall right on his legendary package, it nevertheless would be a huge shock if Warner's dumped him after just one movie - even he, probably, will be back.
Obviously, since Batman Begins has already been released and all, that sequel is little further along - David Goyer and Christopher Nolan already wrote a treatment for it, and some Nolan or other (reports are unclear - they say Jonah, but give his credits as those of Jonathan) has been hired to pen the screenplay. Excellent. Let the leaking begin.

When is the "Boycott Superman Returns" website going to pop up online for angered fans just as the CraigNotBond.com website sprang to life the other day? Or the "Uwe Boll for X-Men 4" themed site?
Seriously, I want to be the #1 poster on the eventual and previously mentioned "Returns" website.
But do count me down for wanting a sequel to *Batman Begins*. With Christopher Eccleston portraying The Clown Prince of Crime. And kiddies, if you aren't familiar with Mr. Eccleston and live in America, tune in to the SciFi Channel on Fridays at 9pm starting March 17th for Eccleston starring in the import gem known as (the new) *Doctor Who*.
This message is brought to you today by the letter "S" which is the first letter in the title *Superman Returns* as well as the first letter in the word "sucks". :)
