In addition to the Angelina Jolie as Catwoman story, there are now rumblings that WB has already approached Johnny Depp to play the Riddler and Philip Seymour Hoffman to play the Penguin in the next Batman movie.
This isn't the first time the notion of Hoffman as Penguin has cropped up but personally, I don't really buy into any of these stories. Its just too soon to be talking casting for a movie that's most likely three years away. There probably isn't even a story yet (never mind script) and I'm sure Nolan, Bale & company would like to take some time off and do another project (like they did with The Prestige) before thinking about diving into another Batman movie. And if past experience is anything to go by Nolan tends to avoid big name stars like Depp in favor of solid actors who aren't household names and can thus more easily disappear into their roles.

Want to throw in my two cents about Maggie G.:
Yes, she's ugly. But that isn't why Batman loves her.
She is Bruce's longest friend, she's intelligent, and she is perhaps the only person who truly understand and can sympathize with his plight (other than Alfred, of course). In addition, she loves Bruce for Bruce, not for Batman and not for his money. something that Wayne doesn't often get.
Now, why Harvey loves her?
Um... you got me. Has a thing for ugly chicks with law degrees?
Now, why Harvey loves her?
Um... you got me. Has a thing for ugly chicks with law degrees?
I don't think she's ugly. Seriously, while I don't find her to be particularly attractive, I do think she's nice looking, and if Bond can fall in love with Eva Green in CR, why can't Harvey fall in love with Maggie G. :v )
The other thing that should be noted is that Harvey is only a prosecutor. If Rachel was some exotically gorgeous goddess, she might come across as out of his league, and in a Nolan-directed realist film, we wouldn't want that. :v

Good point. But Harvey is a pretty famous prosecutor- he IS Gotham's White Knight.

I agree, Dan...and as a bonus, I'll ignore your 1,047th swipe at my girl Eva X-(
Poor Maggie's getting piled-upon, here. She's not a classic beauty, true enough, but IMO she's a vast improvement---in acting chops---over the much prettier (and vapid) Katie Holmes. Maggie looks like the girl next door...and I rather liked the way she put some curves in her evening gowns. I think she did have appreciable chemistry with both Bale and Eckhardt, and is one of the many, many things that made TDK the astounding success it is.

Good point. But Harvey is a pretty famous prosecutor- he IS Gotham's White Knight.
) That's not exactly something he puts on his cv. I mean, he's described by Wayne as Gotham's 'White Knight' because of the ferocity which which he attacks his job and the importance connected to it, but he is still, at the end of the day, a lawyer rather than a billionare playboy or gangster.
I don't know, I guess that I would expect Wayne to have all the babes, and someone like Dent to have someone who isn't as beautiful but is alot more intelligant and substantial. Rachel fits the bill; while she's not great looking, she is still IMO pretty nice looking, and is someone whom you could have a conversation with, as opposed to some of Wayne's girlfriends. I can't say that I'm surprised that Dent ended up with her.

While she isn't exactly supermodel material, I found Maggie G. to be quite attractive (and a good actress), far moreso than Katie Holmes and her perpetually crooked smile, actually.
But as to her really understanding Bruce Wayne's plight and motivation, I didn't quite see it that way. The scene where she says her goodbyes to Alfred and gives him the note would suggest that she really doesn't understand Wayne's motivations all that well; or at least she doesn't appreciate what he's going thru to protect Gotham. Her disagreement with Alfred about what Bruce was doing seemed selfish and personal to me.
In fact, the dinner scene with Bruce, Rachel, Harvey and the ballerina and the scene where Dent implores Batman not to turn himself in would suggest that even Harvey Dent was able to better understand - and agreed with - what Batman's motivations really are.
That's interesting. Also a good analogy over here would be PM Gordon Brown (zero charisma, introspective and troubled and unpopular) cf Blair or Milliband (wiry, fun types but flakey).
That Aussie writer is at it. He's reworked ideas from a Wall Street Journal Article and passed them off as his own in a less intelligent manner. Here's the original piece.
Oh and this is the best review I've read so far. It articulates a lot of the problems I have with the film far better than I ever could, although I actually admire the film more than the writer does. But it is still a miserable mess of a film. And the comments left by irate fans of TDK become increasingly deranged. Aaww, did the nasty film cwitic not like your movie. There, there. )

You're missing my point, Tony. I agree with you - Rachel doesn't agree with or understand Bruce's ways. But the point is that Bruce believes her to be the only one close enough to him that could. This is why Alfred doesn't give Bruce the note - Alfred doesn't want Bruce to realize that she wasn't capable of understanding him, instead allowing Bruce to believe that she was.

Well, I liked the review. Good that a film can provoke this high-level of discussion too. I did feel there was a lot of stuff crammed in, it's like the film had to get through it all, ticking off the various action/emotional/new villain unveiled.

You're right that inflation is a factor here but given the fact that these movies are all fairly recent releases, and that Batman will probably end up making much more than even Spiderman 1, I think it's kind of a moot point.

Even if you put that arguement into play, TDK will more than have adjusted to the inflation difference from 2002 by the time it's finished its run in theatres...handily.
I think that it's safe to say that TDK will finish at or close to 500 million dollars domestically when all is said and done. Spider-Man 1 and TDK are too recent to look at in any other way.
Even when Spider-Man fanboys use that excuse of it being number one outright because of rising ticket prices, I ask them, what about SUPERMAN The Movie then? Shouldn't it be the ranked higher than Spidey 1?

) It's funny to think that DK is meant to be a realist film, yet all of the main male characters are quite good-looking. I mean, Eckhart is alot better looking than Guiliani, who would be alot more realistic as a District Attorney, which strikes me as yet another reason why Nolan's desire to make the Batman more realist (although I did love Batman Begins) is a little silly. (And yes, I'm not suggesting that DK should be completely and totally realistic, but BB was presented in a completely and non-fantastical way, yet there are aspects of both Batman films which are not all that realistic. That said, though, I'm not really complaining, since I like Eckhart alot and I would certainly prefer him to Guiliani. ) )
and is someone whom you could have a conversation with, as opposed to some of Wayne's girlfriends.
You'd be surprised about the intelligence of some models, Dan - some are quite adept at making conversation.
And I gather you're basing this on personal experience? Night, I'm not sure if you understood what I was saying, which is simply that IMO Dent would be attracted to a different type of woman to the girls that a billionaire playboy like Wayne would hang out with, who are IMO the epitome of bimbos; the girls in BB being an example. Rachel strikes me as alot more substantial which is why I presume he's attracted to her.

Why, oh why, did DK have to overtake one of the greatest comicbook films of all time (that's right, Tony, you can't deny its brilliance )? Ah, well, there's still the first Spider-Man film. DK hasn't overtaken that yet, and who knows, maybe it's done as well as it could and it'll soon be going to DVD? :v
I will say this though, Rogue, Spider-Manmay lose its title as the most successful-ever comicbook film, but it will still be the most successful-ever superhero film. )

I thought it was good, just not a masterpiece. It's proof that IMDb's ratings system is extremely flawed, and they need to change it.
Furthermore, my girlfriend doesn't even give me the option. She doesn't ask; all I get is 'My ass looks fat', and I have no say in it.
Maybe Ledger's death has a hand in the rating, but I don't know. I mean, Wall-E, which I saw over the weekend I really didn't like and it has similar superlative ratings on the imdb. No one died during the making of that. Or maybe it's all in comparison with so-so stuff like Hancock.
What are they saying on abm or the equivalent website? Are the Batman talk boards bigging the film up or are there reservations?
