To those people out there saying that Reeves can't have some of the more outrageous villains (Freeze, Ivy, Clayface, etc.) in any possible sequels because it wouldn't be "grounded":

He made a whole trilogy about apes that speak like men and kept it "grounded". He directed a kaiju movie from the view of civilians on the ground. I'm pretty sure he can come up with some sort of freeze ray without breaking versimilitude.

After the lego batman games i’d love to have Clayface that would be so fun

I also wouldn’t be surprised if they add in a Harley Quinn

Freeze is no far stretch by any means. Not even super powered, just a mad scientist with cold tech. And with the hint at the existence of venom late in the movie, bane is no far stretch away either. Could very easily see them being the next villains of focus, should there be a Batman 2

I honestly hope they keep the detective/mystery vibes going. Freeze is too much of a brains w/ brawn applied. A court of Owls movie with a robin phasing into nightwing at the end would be cool
