'Dark Knight' sequel buzz

Posted by SexiVixxEN 120 days ago
"The Dark Knight" is still on the tip of everyone's tongue. But now, instead of folks breathlessly asking each other if they'd seen it, talk has turned to speculation over Batman's next foe. Who's it gonna be?

iVillage is reporting that the Caped Crusader may take on the Riddler in "Batman 3." According to the rumor mill, Johnny Depp might sign on to play the nefarious super-criminal. But caveat emptor—this could be just as false as the one about Crispin Glover playing the Joker.

Slashfilm notes that there are additional possibilities floating around. For instance, Phillip Seymour Hoffman may play the Penguin or Angelina Jolie could don Catwoman's skin-tight suit. Truth or fiction, fanboys around the world must be having a heart attack at the mere possibility.

Still, the "official" rumor mill is just one of the ways superfans are checking in on the next Batman flick. Many seek the scoop themselves. We've noticed impressive searches on "batman 3 rumors," "dark knight sequel casting rumors," and "batman's next villain."

That last query is very telling. People clearly want to know the answer, but we doubt even the filmmakers have decided. To that end, may we offer the studio execs this humble piece of Search-informed advice: Go with Catwoman. She's far-and-away the most popular baddie and there are already a slew of searches on possible cast members including Jessica Biel, Amy Adams, and, wait for it, Maggie Gyllenhaal. Do fans think Rachel Dawes, Bruce Wayne's one-and-only, was really the Catwoman all along?

    If you know Johnny Depp you would know that he is unbelievably versatile... He has been a reasonably well polished guy in films such as a The Astronauts Wife or dare i say it From Hell... wit is all about the script... Be it Johnny or another mainstream or a first time actor it is ultimately the producer who shows us the wit... And really having Heath Ledger portray the Joker was different to how the Joker has been portrayed in previous films and even comics... That's what they were going for... Different. Memorable. Brilliant.

    I don't have a problem with any of the villains they mention but the actors associated with them would not be my choice. When we heard Ledger was going to play joker, most people were dumbfounded at the choice, and look what happened. I have faith that they will choose the right people for the part and despite what most people think, it doesn't have to be someone as huge as Jolie or Depp. Most of the actors in this movie and the first one are not mainstream, which makes for a much more character-driven movie as opposed to a film driven by the star power.

    If Rachel somehow becomes Catwoman, Batman 3 will have likely "jumped the shark" in my book. It wouldn't make sense.

    In the end, Batman is not Bale, he's Bruce Wayne. I want good actors and actresses who play their characters, not people with star power. The problem with so many movies today, and comedies are the worst for this, is the actors aren't acting anymore, they're just being themselves. Same old same old.

    Boss Zucco? Maybe. But, I think movie goers want villians that are more signifigant, ones that you wouldn't you wouldn't see in real life.

    They also need to introduce Boss Zucco into the Batman franchise.

    If you don't know who Boss Zucco is without looking him up, then you really shouldn't be commenting on who should be a Bat villain. Period.

    My love for you is so passionate and true
    I wish I could prove this to you
    I will climb the highest mountain to touch the sky
    And bring down that rainbow so high in the sky.

    Oh if I could prove to you that my love is real
    I'd swim that river oh so wide to prove
    That you are my joy and pride
    And my love is so real.

    But all these things are so impossible for me
    To do I can't climb a mountain oh so high and
    Bring down that rainbow from the sky, and no
    I Can't swim that river that is oh so wide.

    But to Prove my love is true and
    I really want to be with you is say
    I love you and mean it with all my heart!
