Dammit Matt! Don't start screwing with my fantasies!
BTW, IMDB credits her as Selena Kyle and Catwoman. It would be great if they modeled her after Frank Miller's Selina Kyle/Catwoman, from The Dark Knight series.
Oh My God, Phil! How could you fantasize about Anne Hathaway!?! I feel so betrayed! Halle Barry I could understand and support, but Anne...??
Hey Mike, don' worry about it. I do understand Phil's sense of humor. And mine's much more warped, trust me.
Though Phil's writing is definitely his own...he was writing long before we met. Besides, I strongly doubt we could ever collaborate on a script - we're both too individualistic as writers...
I'm still trying to make up my mind. I think I like Nolan's Bane. I think Tom Hardy can pull it off but I have an uneasy feeling about this movie. I trust Nolan. But then I trusted Sam Raimi and then Spider-Man 3 happened...
Though earth and man are gone, I thought the cube would last forever. I WAS WRONG.
i love the skepticism on SS involved with this movie simply because everyone else in the world seems to be sporting a huge nolan-boner over it. lets be honest. this movie is probably going to sub-par at best. its becoming a huge inception reunion and will most likely parallel spiderman 3 (if bruce wayne has an emo dance scene in a bar, im walking out). my biggest gripe with this series is that the dark knight wasn't nearly as good as everyone thought it was. it had some gaping plot holes and the lead character was the worst actor. and dont get me started about all those cockloafs who sported joker t-shirts yet couldn't comprehend the political metaphors within the film. if you dressed up as the joker for halloween or even muttered the phrase "why so serious" even once, then you deserve to be butt raped by the batarang. so maybe my gripe is more with the fan base, rather than the films themselves. either way, the newly found rumors for the dark knight rises seems to be resurrecting all of my deep seeded resentment for the first two films and their reception from american audiences (and college frat boys).

I am a big fan of CW and his films, and I really like BB, and enjoyed most of the TDK, but TDK did have plot holes and such, not to mention I thought it was too serious a film to be a comic book film. I understood Nolan's desire to make it as real-world as possible to set the stage of intensity, but when I go to the movies to see a superhero movie, I go to be suspended in disbelief not brought back into the current happenings. I got the political undertones that the Joker was uttering... I thought they were quite out in the open and not intended to be missed. I'm not one to really delve deep into politics because it gives me a giant headache but I caught the metaphors.
I still trust Nolan to to dish out at a least a summer blockbuster. I don't expect it to be a oscar nominee, so I'll wait until TDKR comes out before I weigh in on that too much.
It's only a teaser. It wouldn't show a whole lot. The first Dark Knight trailer just had a few voice overs. I'm also for trailers not giving away the farm too much too soon. My interest is peaked though wondering what Gordon's doing in the hospital.
When I gauge Bane -- I don't wanna see someone whom I dwarf play him. I wanna see someone more like Glenn Jacobs play him, and someone less like Hardy play him.
Below is a picture of Hardy, without his shirt, on set... Nolan, in typical Nolan fashion, went out of his way to cast an all foreigner Batman.
Bale -- Wales Liam -- Scottish or Irish Ledger -- Australian Cain -- English Oldman -- English
