Hopefully the blacklight makeup wearing street gang will be left out of this movie.

Make-up could take care of that.

He just needs a little chin putty.

I think Christian Bale is a great choice! I'm not worried at all about his accent, after all, in "Newsies", he had a heavy Brooklyn accent. Also, the villians that are "rumored" are Scarecrow and Ra's Al Ghul. I don't believe they'll be teaming up, so I believe the rumors are for one or the other. I would much rather see Scarecrow than Ra's Al Ghul. Or they could've gone with either Clayface or Killer Croc. If only B&R didn't use Bane so horribly as it did, they could've used him alone. I also believe that the Boy Blunder will be left out of this film. Thank God.

I guess sombody posted it before I could.

I couldn't be happier with this news, Christian Bale is perfect for the role. Anyone who doubts me, go check out Equilibrium. As far as his voice, I had no idea he wasn't american until I watched some extra features on said DVD, I personally love his voice.

Rumors about Bale as Batman started around the time there were talks about Batman VS. Superman film. I lost all faith in WB when they chose MgM to direct the Super-Man movie, and Aston Kutcher was planned as Batman... But today some of that faith has returned.

*Tetsu Deinonychus* · 09-12-2003, 03:06 PM

ASHTON KUTCHER AS BATMAN?!?!?!?!?!
WTF???!!!!!
ARE THEY FREAKING MORONS?!?!

**Karpo_007** · 09-12-2003, 03:09 PM

I believe they are. But it seems they have gotten some critique from angry fans and made the right choice.

*Tetsu Deinonychus* · 09-12-2003, 03:09 PM

I sincerely hope so!

He hid it in American Phsyco, and that movie was hilarious. It made me want to buy a chainsaw.

The thought had crossed my mind for him as the young Tim Drake.

Well, last I heard WB still had McG directing Superman, Justin Timberlake being courted to play Jimmy Olsen, and Drew Barrymore being hand-picked by McG to play Lois Lane. So I still think WB is made up of idiots. The fact that they might have gotten a good actor to play Batman isn't enough to restore any of my faith whatsoever. I won't believe either Batman or Superman will be any good until I see it for myself.

After all, a WB executive summed up their philosophy perfectly back when Kevin Smith was writing Superman: "Kevin, it's not about making a good movie, it's about how many toys we can sell."

*Dane E5R* · 09-14-2003, 08:48 PM

I think he was in Shaft, wasn't he? And I saw him in Equilibrium. He was good in both, and just like most the brits he's good with hiding his accent. I think he makes a nice Bats.

*That Matt Guy* · 09-14-2003, 08:55 PM

Actually Justin Timberlake would probably make a good Jimmy. That is if he could act.

*Tetsu Deinonychus* · 09-14-2003, 09:47 PM

Who the hell is Justin Timberlake?

~~Leo656~~ · 09-14-2003, 11:13 PM

Former member of the Mickey Mouse Club, former member of N Sync.... probably most famous as "Britney Spears's ex-boyfriend who keeps getting caught smoking pot with his mom at crowded nightclubs".

I don't care how many records N Sync sold... taking Britney's virginity is definitely that kid's biggest accomplishment.

Regardless, if he gets cast in "Superman" I'm gonna hire Gary Coleman to assassinate him. He'll do it, too, Gary always needs money.

Man Tetsu, pop culture seems to have completely passed you over. Where are you from bud?
