Not sure how I feel about this. Also, huge fail on bringing in Harley Quinn after the Joker - she's the yin to his yang!

Rainn Wilson doesn't come off as criminally-genius enough in any role he's ever played, and Edward Nigma is a criminal genius.

bullshit. the american office is hysterical. and i HATED it for years. a second try confirmed what everyone else was saying: this show is a subtle laugh riot. the britt version is funny too.

I think Joseph-Gordon Levitt has the right kind of face and build to play Nigma. He's too young, IMO. If Jim Carrey wasn't such a manic dork, I'd say he'd be perfect - but we all know he isn't from his stint at the Riddler in Batman Forever.

haha you know, everyone thought that Heath Ledger was going to be a terrible joker.... and he was amazing... im not knocking this at all. im actually excited.

EDIT: Also there shouldn't be Harley Quinn especially after the joker now... it should be like cat woman or someone like that?

im not exactly sure that im buying the "leak." i havent seen anything about it on any of the regular sites that would jump all over that (rotten tomatos, superhero hype, etc). i mean, when inception came out a couple weeks ago Nolan was saying how he was considering casting JGL and all that.

until i see something leaked from something like WB or on a site like Rotten Tomatoes im still skeptical.

Yea, I'm with you about the leak, but still it's fun to speculate.

Kevin Smith's daughter should play Harley Quinn seeing as how her name is actually Harley Quinn...

isnt she like 5?

but for quinn though, instead of being a fucked up psychiatrist, she should be an overly obsessed fan girl of the joker. like completely bat shit (hah) crazy obsessed.

More distressing than any casting decision to me is the fact that they're calling it The Dark Knight Returns. Unless it's about Bruce Wayne as an old man kicking Superman's ass and the script is written by Frank Miller, Christopher Nolan should be drawn and quartered. There are some things you just don't mess with.

Ooh I like where you're going with it. A delusional love affair with a dead man she hopes to emulate.

And Stuuuuu, comic book movies don't leave anything alone these days - wait til you see how they handle Thor and X-Men: First Class.

i dont know but Dark Knight Returns just sounds too corny and a total cop out. so far the titles have been good titles that have actual meaning to the movie. batman begins...duh. dark knight, well he wasnt the white knight that everyone wanted, blah blah blah just watch the end of the movie.

for the third title...something like "Batman: Dark Victory" or "Batman: Knightfall" or if this is going to be the last one "Batman: Legacy." while i doubt that the movie is going to follow any these titles actual plots they are still better then "Dark Knight Returns." if they REALLY REALLY want to stick with another batman nickname i suppose "Caped Crusader" could...kind of...i guess...work...ish...not really. but yea, i think you get my point.
