That's pretty much what I w as going to say.
Without the bloat of an origin story, they are usually able to spin a better tale. The problem than becomes the 3rd movie when directors want to take the heroes where they've never been before.
I mean Superman 3 (I believe its 3) was the one that featured the clone Superman getting drunk.
Spiderman 3 wanted to examine Spiderman's dark side.
X-Men 3 opened up Jean's dark psychic.
Batman 3 just changed tonal completely.
