Still More Nolan on Batman 3

Apparently making the publicity rounds for the DVD/Blu Ray release tomorrow, Christopher Nolan talked to USA Today and had this to say:

...most third acts in Hollywood stink. Look at the disappointing threequels for The Godfather, Superman and the original Batman. The conclusions weren't much better for the more recent Shrek, Spider-Man and Pirates of the Caribbean.

"I don't know why they're hard to do," Nolan says. "Maybe there's so much expectation to them. But I wouldn't want to do one if it weren't going to be as good as the first or second. That's not respectful to the fans."

And:

"The worst thing you could do now that you've gotten the plane back in the air is mess up the landing."
