IGN compiled a list of 12 Batman 3 rumours. It's too large to embed it onto here, so here's the link.

http://uk.movies.ign.com/articles/102/1021924p1.html

What do you guys think of those rumours? Any of them take your fancy? I'll say it now, 12, 5, 3 and 2 make me want to gouge my eyes out. 10 makes me want to shoot up a post office then shave my eyeballs with a razor.

Yes please to 7, 9 is more picture perfect, but Giamatti man! Paul Giamatti! I don't think I like the idea of Weisz as Catwoman, but it can't be as bad as Jolie instead, or Miley frickin' Cyrus as Batgirl, and Shia LeBland can come back when he makes a performance that isn't identical to his entire back catalogue of films (whew, no more coal for this hate train, let's grind it to a halt).

What about you?

Micheal Caine's a believer though, telling MTV last year: "The Penguin is Philip Seymour Hoffman. I read it in the paper."
My faith in the validity in these rumors dropped by a great deal when they failed to spot sarcasm and irony from a distance of about two inches. Not that they were reporting to inform to begin with, but still.

Still, my inner fan devoured the rest of the article with glee.

EDIT: On second though, it may be that the writer of this article is a good deal more intelligent than I gave him credit, and knows exactly what he's writing. It's a much more amusing possibility.

all bunk, i expect. I for one am looking forward to Nolan's next movie, Inception.
They've given away practically nothing though, it's a true teaser. Still looking forward to it though.

What about Giamatti as Penguin? Or Cyrus as Batgirl? (^_^)

Miley Cyrus would ruin the movie, but I don't think that is ultimately too crazy of a rumour, but Cher?! Are you fucking kidding me where did they hear that rumour?!

well, i don't think i'm to good at this but i'll list the ones i found interesting/knew who the actors were. note that this is opinein, so if you want to get mad at me, i warned you.also most of these are hyperbole's.


<spoiler=the ones i cared about>12:this would make me cringe to see her in a skin tight out fit. i just think she's extremly ugly.

6. he looks like he is the caliber of actor that keanu is.

5. if they do this, kill the staff. they might make an endless chain of movies like those "bruce lee" movies that appeared after his death.

4. for some reason, i regard this one as bat shit crazy.

3.i have a feeling that she might be put in cos she "might" draw in 13 year old girls.

2.if this happens, kill me. no kill him and hang his corpse in the studio.

Iunno, I think Depp as the Riddler wouldn't be half that bad... but Shia LeBeouf as Robin would kill the series for me

Unfortunately for Mr. Bale I think a lot of people really want to see Robin in these movies. In a way, Robin is one of the most messed up things Batman has ever done (getting a teenage kid to risk his life to help him fight crime, in a way thats really twisted). While I don't hate LaBouf as much as the average person, I would say he is way too old for the role and just not right for it. I don't have a better alternative because I dont really know too many young actors. Robin should be about half of Batman's age and if the movies seem to be going with the idea that Bruce Wayne in his late twenties to early thirties? That would put Robin somewhere in the 12-16 years old age range.

Other than that, am I the only person who is sick of Johnny Depp being the answer to any role that may be described or quirky, weird, or odd? His name pops up for everything not normal. One of the reasons Heath Ledgers Joker worked so well is because nobody was expecting it.

Penguin has been done before, I'd rather see different villians.

Allegedly Christopher Nolan keeps killing any attempt of a Justice League movie so I would be ok with someone getting a shot at the Batman franchise and do a good job of it, that way the movie bosses wouldn't be afraid of Nolan's fits (IF THERE IS TRUTH TO THE STORIES IVE READ)

All of those rumores are stupid except for Jolie being Catwoman, Depp Dons Riddler's Leotard, and Hoffman Playing the Penguin.

Miley Cyrus as Batgirl? Don't make me vomit.

Cher as Catwoman? Yah, in geriatric Batman. Also, Weisz is cute, but tough she is not. Jolie can play tough. She is a great actress and she is WAY hotter than Weisz.

Shia LaBeouf is Robin? No, just no. Bale also said that when signed up for Batman that he demanded that Robin never appear in the movies. So fuck Robin. Robin sucks monkey balls.

Bale out, Worthington in as Batman? HAHAHAHAHAHA! So stupid. So damn stupid. Bale already said he is up for at least 2 more movie. He loves being Batman as he is an old school fan.

The Joker Returns? How? Who is going to top Ledger's performance and make it so similar that they don't out like a sore thumb?

Eddie Murphy to play the Riddler? Don't make me laugh. That guy is such a sorry ass has been it is not even a funny joke anymore.

I say Talia al'Ghul and Catwoman duke it out over Batman while Bane smashes everything in sight.

David. Tennant. As. The. Riddler.

I think the only way they could get away with putting Robin into the movie is if they kept it completely top secret. Cast a complete unknown, don't show him in any of the trailers, make it take everyone completely by suprise. Put up some big name villains to keep everyone's attention and fly Robin in under the radar.

Totally agree with you on that one, but do you think such a feat is possible these days with how freely information flows?

David Tennant would work very well as the Riddler.

But no Robin. Not now, not ever. Robin only got cool when he grew up and became Nightwing. Uh and when the second Robin got his little brains beaten in by the Joker in "A Death in The Family". That was awesome. Besides, Bale and Nolan are both against Robin ever being in the movies. They have both said it many times.

Not as single rumor about Bat-Mite and Ace the Bat-Hound, for shame!
That's because Ace needs a standalone film! ;)

Come now, Giamatti as Penguin! Giamatti! Penguin! I'll take that over a picture perfect Hoffman any day.

I also disagree with Jolie. I want to see a more damaged Catwoman, rather than the sexed up Michelle Pfeifer version. If Jolie can give us that, then fine but I don't think she can, she's (well for some people) too much eye candy, like playing Megan Fox for a serious role.

Agreed on Talia al'Ghul though, she needs to come into play, especially considering her father died like an extra at the start of Begins (someone had to point out that it was him to me...)

Also while Depp would be pretty much fit the part like a glove, I would very much rather see...

This actually needs to happen. It does. Tennant's type of characters could fit The Riddler perfectly.

And Jolie hotter than Weisz? Lay off the crack. ;)

Either Giamatti or Hoffman as Penguin would do just fine.

Jolie play damaged? Did you see "Girl Interrupted"? You want to see damaged? Watch that movie. She is mentally damaged to the max in that movie. She is even kinda of fugly too. Kind of like when Charlize Theron was in Monster.

Agreed on Talia al'Ghul though, she needs to come into play, especially considering her father died like an extra at the start of Begins (someone had to point out that it was him to me...)
Uh dude, that was the decoy. Liam Neeson's character was al'Ghul.

Also while Depp would be pretty much fit the part like a glove, I would very much rather see...

Either Tennant or Depp would be a fine Riddler.

As for Weisz vs Jolie? Man, Jolie any day, everyday, and twice on Sunday. Weisz is cute in a next girl kind of way, but smoking hot she is not.

I just saw one rumor about Megan Fox playing as Catwoman ...

I would love to see Hush as a villain in the next movie: it would maintain the dark elements very nicely. Hush and possibly Zsasz
