yep, except the gravitas-gap b/w murray and bale would be huge. that's not a bad thing in a villain, tho.

He's a great long-term, big picture adversary in that he's a villain that's sympathetic to Batman and there's some level of mutual respect.

this. it's not that he's a lame villain or ill-suited to live action, just that nolan used him badly.

superman is also a great sympathetic mutual respect batman adversary but photoshop them into the same picture and it falls apart.

it's going to be interesting to see how the avengers movie handles the thor problem.

it would be more interesting if hollywood declared an indefinite moritorium on superhero movies.

the one project my ILM buddy is working on is the Joss Whedon Avengers movie but I gotta say I'm deeply skeptical

er the one project my ILM buddy is working on that she is excited about

The article upthread makes me worried that this movie will be dominated, or at least focused on these hand-to-hand combat scenes...the bits where Batman was 'characteristically' kicking ass like at the beginning with the fakes or at the end with dogs were the least interesting parts of TDK for me.

Took me too many seconds to realize that that stood for Industrial Light and Magic, and not I Love Music.

Kinda loved the way the catwomen and batgirl fans were all coming out of the woodwork upthread. Fetishes. Fetishes we didn't even know we had.

Also reminds me of dating advice I once heard a guy give to women: "Don't date a man who has 'How to Draw Women in Comic Books' on his bookshelf."

Ol' Doc Morbs makes some movie he dislikes worth a rematch due to his commentary yet again!

sectarian chicken (mh), Friday, 21 January 2011 03:30 (thirteen years ago) link

There was this one episode where Catwoman ties up Batgirl with heat-sensitive strings, and the only way she can escape is by rolling around in water. Swear to God.

I feel like if you did that to the strung-out AH in Rachael Getting Married it would be more accurate

Elegant Bitch (Jimmy The Mod Awaits The Return Of His Beloved), Sunday, 23 January 2011 19:24 (thirteen years ago) link

is that really it? the costume seems so pedestrian, and the character looks non-threatening.

i mean, nolan's a talented moviemaker, so i have little doubt it will be an okay movie.

Daniel, Esq., Sunday, 23 January 2011 19:25 (thirteen years ago) link

maybe she's supposed to be non-threatening? i guess i don't remember enough about catwoman.

Daniel, Esq., Sunday, 23 January 2011 19:25 (thirteen years ago) link

srsly doubt that's the actual costume. guessing it's just a publicity photo that's like "btw anne hathaway is gonna be catwoman, hey stylist gin up something catty asap"

PLEASE, MOVIEMAKERS, UNVEIL THE REAL CATWOMAN COSTUME ASAP FOR COMMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS

tbh, i don't even know who anne hathaway is (i know her by name).

She's Wm Shakespeare's lady.
