The Dark Knight - More Joker and Teaser on Page 5

Moviehole.net reported that Rachel McAdams (Wedding Crashers) is in line for a role in the upcoming Batman Begins sequel, The Dark Knight; the Batman-on-Film.com site speculates she may be up for the role of Selina Kyle, aka Catwoman.

Raph's Girl note: Catwoman?! I'd rather have Talia in the movie than Catwoman....bad enough that Joker and TwoFace are gonna be in it....

But wasn't it kind of hinted at the end of the first movie that the Joker would be the first villian (I could be wrong it's been awhile since I've seen it and I might be getting mixed up)? Not that I would complain if they did Catwoman instead but I just find it kind of odd.

I don't really care if Catwoman is gonna be in the movie actually. As long as her real name ain't Patience Phillips, I'm cool with it.

I'm quite sure some people would say it's a waste and that the movies do not need to focus on characters who have allready have movie time.
Me I'm not one of those people hahahah Allthough I'd rather see madhater or clayface or killercrock anyday over jocker again.

Exactly!! I'd rather see Clayface on the big screen! The guy that played him in "Birds of Prey" could reprise the role! Killer Croc would be awesome.... Mad Hatter not so much cuz of the upcoming American McGee's Alice In Wonderland movie coming out...

But if it's got Joker at least have the decency to have Harley in it... Ooh maybe Rachel McAdams is playing Harley?

But theres no need for harely yet.....This is the begining of batman and the joker so why would she come along so early? I want to see the tension between Batman and the joker build before she ever comes in.

Plus I think its great that there brining in Joker, but if you payed any attention to begins he will be just one of a huge cast of villains so it wont be just him.

Harely could still be in it. Remember she's a psychologist. She could be trying to help people who were effected by the fear agent. All those people effected say their fears. That's like the origin of The Joker, Penguin, Catwoman, Mad Hatter, Riddler, Copperhead, Killer Moth, Orca, Ventriloquist, Poison Ivey...and possably others. They all become what they fear...

Well I'd rather see characters like the Joker and Two-Face done justice instead of the raped version of them in the other movies.

Well I take that back only Two-face was raped. Joker was okay, some people liked him I think it's quite dated. But yeah either way we knew Joker was going to be in it from the end of Begins. So I'm looking forward to this.

yea like I said I don't mind it but I do hope they keep going and I would love to see harley also. I'd also like catwoman to have the new long with the big ears I think the design like that is beautiful.
I really want to see clayface and killer croc though at some point.
Clayface is just to tragic to never have a movie made of him.

Well, yeah, the whole movie is dated. I look at those as a typical "over-saturated" comic book translation that stopped after the sequel. These movies are meant to be taken seriously, and be long standing interpretations. Still, if there is anything the old movies got right, it was Catwoman.



If they can beat Michelle Pfeiffer, I will tip my hat to them and have a drink in their honour. They'll be damned hardpressed to pull that off in my eyes though, but hell, Batman Begins took a character I had written off as a joke, and made him the greatest in his field once again. I wish them luck,

I can't imagine anyone besides Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman. Especially not Halle Berry.

And there's no better Batvillain than the Joker, so I'd love to see him. Best villain ever. And Harley should come later, not at the beginning, since Bats needs to capture Joker first for Harley to first meet him, if they want to pull off Harley as she is in the book. It would make a great ending shot actually, seeing Quinzel go home and apply her Harley makeup.

HOW DARE YOU TO QUESTION LORD DOOM'S PARAMOUNT MANLIHOOD YOU ANARCHIST SCUMBAG?! HIS DOOMNESS MIGHT BOAST ABOUT IT WHENEVER AND WHEREVER HE WISHES, AS IT IS HIS HOLY PRIVILEGE. NOW KNEEL AND BOW BEFORE DOOM AND HE MIGHT MERCIFULLY SPARE YOU ANY UNNECESSARY ANGUISH BEFORE I BEHEAD YOU ON THE MAIN PLACE OF DOOMSTADT, LATVERIA!

Back on topic... yeah, I think Joker is the best villain in Bat's universe. He's an absolute must in that movie. A real psycho with no extra superpowers - that makes him a perfect counterpart for Batman. Too bad Jack Nicholson is too old to play him once again, tho' - I loved him in Tim Burton's movie. I don't know how I'm going to react to the newest incarnation.

Well, they certainly made her sexy, but her origin in Batman Returns? Awful.

She was a secretary who got pushed out a window, got licked by a bunch of cats and woke up with ninja-skills and 9 magical lives...somehow.

Ugh. And people hated the origin from the Halle Barry movie.

I didn't see it, but what I read was that there's an ancient cat god who gives powers to a new woman every generation, and Halle Barry was to be the new Catwoman or something.

John Rogers is an idiot. It pains me to know that he wrote the script for the new Transformers movie.
