The LA Times’ Hero Complex recently put out their ideas about reboots for the “Batman” franchise, many of which were amazing and would actually make really good movies or television shows (I think so, anyway).

Recently, MTV has put out their ideas for “Batman” reboots, and, similar to the LA Times’ ideas, many of them would make for great movies.

My favorite idea of theirs’ is “The Dark Knight Returns.” They would like for this film to be directed by Darren Aronofsky, which would be great, seeing how his work on “Black Swan” was quite close to brilliant. The quiet, naked type of feel “Black Swan” had would be cool to see in a Batman story, especially since the main character of “Black Swan” and Bruce Wayne both have a tumble down the rabbit hole due to their sanity slowly starting to unravel. Seriously, we can’t pretend that Bruce is all there; he’s just shy to becoming a criminal himself. Seeing that type of psychological examination would be great.

You can read the rest of the ideas at MTV. What ideas do you have for the reboot? Which directors would you give the reins to? Give your opinions in the comments section below.
