David Goyer, who wrote Batman Begins, is developing a different type of story for Green Arrow.

“Super Max” is Goyer’s take on supervillain incarceration in the DC Universe. Revolving around a wrongly convicted Green Arrow being whisked away to the super max prison for out-of-control heroes and villains, the man is forced to face a number of inmates he put there.

Goyer, developing the project with writer Justin Marx, says the Green Arrow will only make a small appearance in costume - “He’s Green Arrow for the first 10 minutes of the movie, and then he’s arrested and his secret identity is revealed”. - Dark Horizons

No Obstacles - A New Yorker article on Parkour

“Parkour, a made-up word, cousin to the French parcours, which means “route,” is a quasi commando system of leaps, vaults, rolls, and landings designed to help a person avoid or surmount whatever lies in his path—a vocabulary, that is, to be employed in finding one’s way among obstacles.”
