1. Badass, simply badass. Based on "Batman Begins," Christian Bale might be the best Batman yet.
I know it's blasphemy to say so, but I stand by my opinion.

2. Throw me on the pile too, cuz I agree...
Maybe it's just the better material, but this franchise is running on all cylinders.

24. Blasphemy or not, it's a stone cold FACT.
Now, to be fair, he does have the advantage of being cast
in the BEST BATMAN MOVIE EVER. So that's a real leg-up on
the other contenders.

If Keaton had had a film like THAT to portray Batman in, who knows?

:hi:

I am so looking forward to this.

It will be bittersweet though, with Heath's death.

22. I understood exactly what "there" meant
I heard a lot of people remark that some of the scenes in "Cloverfield" were in bad taste, and I hear what they're saying.

23. Jayzus Crist!!
Look at that supporting cast!! I thought the frst one was good, how are they going to get everybody the screen time they deserve?

Keep Oldman lowkey as Gordon and remember sometimes less is more and we'll do alright.

25. I wish the movies would stop referencing "Dark Knight"....
...unless and until they give us the real Dark Knight movie. The Frank Miller one.

30. Read it for yourself...
...while there are a few comic books that are better-written, there are few that were so influential outside the realm of comic books.

I happen to think it's pretty darned good myself, but of course that is a subjective determination.

33. The original "Dark Knight Returns" was excellent, a classic
But Miller later went on to do a sequel that, like most of his more recent work, sucks big hairy elephant balls.

31. Bale's a little young for that...
But in twenty years and a ton of make-up, he would kick ass.

32. When you said they went "there"
I thought you meant they had featured Heath Ledger in the poster...

Thankfully, they didn't, and it's a great poster.

34. I've seen one with Heath Ledger, and I don't think it was photoshopped.

Let me do some digging.

Edit: Nope. Photoshop.
