DAVID GOYER: Without giving anything away, it organically sort of lends itself for one. I think people will be happy with sort of where that goes. Not specifically. Chris was originally saying he would only do the one and just the one. I don’t know. We’ll see. I was exhausted after I finished “Blade.” We ended up shooting about 90 days. I think Chris is going to end up shooting 140 days main unit on “Batman.” Who knows? I think if you ask Chris now he would say, “Just don’t ask me that question,” because he’s in the trenches. We’ll have to see when he finishes it.
The titles “Batman Intimidation” and “Batman: Intimidation Game” were on the Internet for a while. How involved were you with the title?
DAVID GOYER: Chris and I talked about it and we were determined to come up with a title when we turned in the script. Internally with Warner Bros., we knew that that would kind of set the tone. We were talking about how it would be promoted initially and we didn’t want to have the same title as any of the previous films. I came up with “Batman Beginning.” And then Chris just said, “Let’s just say ‘Begins’ because then when it’s announced you can say I’m blah blah blah of ‘Batman Begins.’” I was like, “Genius.” So from that point on, it was always that.
It was never “Intimidation Game?”
DAVID GOYER: No. I think to try and keep people away, scripts didn’t have “Batman Begins” title. But it was never that. It was always “Batman Begins.”
Where are you with “Blade Trinity?”
DAVID GOYER: I’ll deliver in early October so we’re mixing and doing sound and effects stuff. We largely finished editing. We’re still tinkering with little things.
