With Dawn Of Justice, we'll see Batman fight Superman (sorry about the spoilers). After that, he's set to join the Justice League to battle whatever mighty deus ex machina might be required to bring such heroes together (hopefully not another weather wizard). So at home in his own movies, we should leave Batman doing what he does best - stalking rooftops and terrifying the hell out of mentally ill people and penniless, desperate thugs. In a cinematic future where every superhero film feels as though it needs to climax with a massive world/city shaking CGI threat (Ant-Man aside) it'd be refreshing to see a street level superhero thriller in which the stakes are relatively low but personal. If you really must blow up the whole city, at least make it believable. And don't have Alfred give away the ending halfway through.
