episode Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Never understood the need to replace Katie Holmes. She wasn't bad and it kinda ruined the continuity of the films and Maggie wasn't even in it that much. She didn't want to do another one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xero Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I know this more than anyone I'm the world's biggest Harley fan... but people were chucking out actresses so I thought I'd bring Faruza to the for front. If we ever do see Harley, she'll be playing the doctor in charge for treating the Joker, not who she becomes. It'd be pointless to do the entire storyline without Heath, but I could see them including her maybe near the beginning to wrap up the Joker arc. Never understood the need to replace Katie Holmes. She wasn't bad and it kinda ruined the continuity of the films and Maggie wasn't even in it that much. Like episode said. She turned it down. More realistically, Tom turned it down for her :laugh: At least the character died right? Axe that annoying story arc. JGL would be well suited for Robin although I'd be equally happy if he played Edward Nigma (aka the Riddler before he loses it) Seeing Harvey Dent before he went Two-Face was really cool. I hope Nolan shows more characters before they turn evil or whatever. Pfister's comments about the opening sequence has got me pumped. I loved the bank heist opening in TDK. My only wish for this film is to bring back more of the Batman magic. TDK was great but it didn't feel like a Batman movie in my opinion. The first half of Batman Begins was just incredible. Jumping back and forth between present day, his early 20's and even his childhood. It was brilliantly cut and to this day I love the build up to the 2nd half of the film. While I thoroughly loved TDK it didn't have that comic/batman vibe it should have had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Peewee210 Subscriber¹ Posted February 4, 2011 Subscriber¹ Share Posted February 4, 2011 I remember Christian Bale saying if Robin was introduced, he wouldn't star in the film... I also think Nolan said he wouldn't use Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George P Global Moderator Posted February 4, 2011 Global Moderator Share Posted February 4, 2011 Robin doesn't work for movies, I mean, he's gotta be a little kid first, and even then, there's been, uhh, 5 robins iirc. Now if you wanna sidestep the whole robin part and make an older Dick go right into being Nightwing then maybe it can work out better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xero Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I remember Christian Bale saying if Robin was introduced, he wouldn't star in the film... I also think Nolan said he wouldn't use Robin It was more along the lines of chaining himself up and refusing to act :laugh: However if Nolan says he's going to do Robin, then Bale and even us will be on board. The man has made enough good movies to deserve our respect. Just because Robin thus far as been a lil wimp doesn't mean he has to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnsflipper Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Never understood the need to replace Katie Holmes. She wasn't bad and it kinda ruined the continuity of the films and Maggie wasn't even in it that much. I thought she was awful compared to a grounded actor like Bale, but at the time of Dark Knight she decided not to be in the sequel, doing Mad Money instead. You can see how that went :whistle: Also I think that she used to talk more about her husband's new movie than Batman Begins, and that may have reasonably angered some people.

Gaffney Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Robin worked for the first show, terrible film Batman and Robin. He also works ok in the cartoons but the cartoons would have been better without him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not that Robin doesn't work, it does in the comics just fine and so on, but if the new movies are suppose to be realistic then no ones going to believe a little kid (no not a teenager like the other movies had), as batmans sidekick anymore. If you wanted to be realistic and stick to the movies you'd probably just skip Dick as Robin and turn him into Nightwing imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inferniac Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 'The Dark Knight Rises' D.P. Says Script Is 'Phenomenal,' Will 'Blow Your Mind'What? A key member of the crew on Christopher Nolan's 'The Dark Knight Rises' has read the script and has nothing but good things to say about it? Madness! Still, when that key member of the crew is Academy Award?nominated director of photography Wally Pfister, you can't help but sit up and take notice. The extraordinarily talented D.P. was a guest on the Kevin and Josh Movie Show (although it was First Showing that pointed us in the right direction), and he did a fine job drumming up hype while not giving away a single detail. No wonder the ever-secretive Nolan loves this guy. When asked how his director was going to top 'The Dark Knight,' Pfister unleashed this statement upon an unsuspecting Internet: "I asked the same question. I read the script two weeks ago, and he's done it. Plain and simple -- he's done it. It's a phenomenal script. He's still in the process of cutting it back because it's a very long script right now, but it's really phenomenal. And he actually had me go back and wanted me to watch, in IMAX, 'Batman Begins' and 'The Dark Knight' again. When I watched those I had read the script for 'The Dark Knight Rises' and was like, 'Dude, it is a perfect trilogy.' I think that was his intent, to work off those two pictures -- and they are very different pictures. And it's funny, we all had different opinions about which picture we like better." Batman movie news is always exciting, and while the jury's still out on whether or not this actually qualifies as news, we'll take what we can get. Naturally, a man chiefly involved in the key creative development of a film isn't going to run out and bad-mouth his current gig (particularly when the gig is as high-profile as 'The Dark Knight Rises'), but Pfister isn't some hack -- he's one of the best cinematographers working today, an Oscar nominee for 'Batman Begins,' 'The Prestige,' 'The Dark Knight' and 'Inception' (no wonder he likes working with Nolan). Heck, the man could probably shoot an amazing-looking film with his eyes closed. Naturally, the conversation turned toward how he was going to shoot the film, especially in the wake of 'The Dark Knight''s use of the IMAX camera for certain sequences: "Our goal is to shoot as much in IMAX as we can. We're going to put in on the screen, and put it on the screen big. And I really encourage everyone to see it in IMAX if they can because we're really going for it this time. In terms of the action, we are all scratching our heads right now trying to figure out how we're going to do it, how we're going to do it in the amount of time we're going to do it in. The opening scene of the movie will blow your mind." What's most surprising about that statement is not that they plan to shoot more in IMAX (the IMAX-shot set pieces in 'The Dark Knight' were incredible), but that Pfister doesn't once mention 3D. Will he and Nolan hold steady and avoid a post-conversion nightmare? We can only hope. For more tidbits, you should click that link above and listen to the whole interview (including Pfister's incredibly early, vague thoughts on Anne Hathaway's Catwoman). 'The Dark Knight Rises' begins shooting in a few months with a targeted July 20, 2012, release date. The massive ensemble, plus Hathaway, Tom Hardy and a possible Joseph Gordon-Levitt, returns. source Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamp0 Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 JGL is gonna be Robin. I bet $10 on it. No way in hell will he be Robin. Nolan has already made it pretty clear. yeah chances are he's going to be Riddler before Riddler I think Riddler was the big rumored villain because he is basically the next best known one. I think one of the most plausible characters JGL could play is Alberto Falcone, Carmine Falcone's(mob boss in batman begins) son, because there is quite an angle in the comics with Catwoman.

Rappy Veteran Posted February 5, 2011 Author Veteran Share Posted February 5, 2011 Rumour Alert Ok, remember a couple of days ago when I posted the news that Christopher Nolan and Warner Bros were scouting locations in Detroit which were described as a "water treatment plant" and "underground vault area"? Well, Ain't It Cool News have now expanded on that info, with one VERY interesting addition. According to Eaton County and Grand Ledge officials who didn't want to be identified due to confidentiality agreements, production crews from "The Dark Knight Rises" scouted locations in Grand Ledge's Fitzgerald Park last week. They looked at the Ledges as well as a water treatment plant located inside the park. Sources say the area is being considered as a hideout for Batman sidekick Robin. http://www.aintitcool.com/node/48358 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamushroom Veteran Posted February 6, 2011 Veteran Share Posted February 6, 2011 ^Probably not the sidekick Robin. Christian said he'd stop playing Batman as soon as Robin got into the script. And I'm not sure but I believe I've read that Nolan didn't want to use that character either. Also, who believes a site that actually wants Bieber to play Robin? I sure as hell wouldn't.
