Re: Batman 2 Discussion
Please, please, PLEASE....
Ask just about anyone who loved "Batman Begins" what they thought the flick's "weak spot" was, and I bet you money they'd say "Well, Katie Holmes, obviously. Her character, partially, but mainly just her blank stare and entirely unconvincing performance. Why do you ask?"
And then you could answer, "Well, not only is she (apparently) not returning for the sequel, but in her place we might get the bubbly ultra-hottie known as Rachel McAdams."
It's all rumor and conjecture at this point, but JoBlo and Batman-on-Film.com are reporting that, yes, the "Wedding Crashers" cutie is in talks to play the role of Batman's (unimportant) girlfriend in "The Dark Knight." Word is that it's a pretty slim role this time around, which is fine by me, and also that Ms. McAdams would probably enjoy sticking to roles a little on the meatier side, but there you have it: Katie Holmes out, Rachel McAdams (maybe and allegedly) in.Helen: Everyone's special, Dash.
Dash: [muttering] Which is another way of saying no one is.Comment

Re: Batman 2 Discussion
I remember seeing that character in the movie and thought it was cool. I always like when they throw in other characters into the background.i was reading a comic of batman and batman begins had another bad character in it, goes by the name Victor Zsaz(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zsasz), he was the one pointing the knife at rachel and the little kid while the microwave emitter was going off

Re: Batman 2 Discussion
Aaron Eckhart as Dent? Maggie Gyllenhaal as Dawes?
Friday, February 2, 2007 - 5:00 AM, 5:47 PM: Back in July, BOF reported that Ryan Phillippe was in the Harvey Dent/Two Face mix. Here's what he had to say recently about the role via IGN: "'I think they may have talked at different times to my representation, but no decision has been made. It would be fun.' When asked if he was shutting the door on that possibility, he replied 'no.'"
Looks like Ryan would love to land the part, but...
My friends over at LATINO REVIEW are reporting that 38 year old Aaron Eckhart may have recently emerged as the front-runner to play Harvey Dent in THE DARK KNIGHT. They also mention another candidate for the recast Rachel Dawes: Maggie Gyllenhaal.
Eckhart, who was once linked to the role of Jim Gordon during the Darren Aronofsky/Frank Miller YEAR ONE days, would be a HELL of a choice for Dent if this comes to fruition. I like Eckhart for Dent over Jamie Foxx or Ed Norton -- I certainly give it a thumbs up! As far as the 29 year old Gyllenhaal as Dawes, I guess she's be OK. She sort of favors Katie Holmes in a way, as pointed out by several BOF'ers.

I think we're getting close...
Eckhart: "We'll see"
Author: Jett
Thursday, February 8, 2007 - 3:53 PM CENTRAL TIME: Now this is interesting. BOF'er and past BOF contributor Kris Tapley has the following to report in his BLOG:
I managed to get a "we'll see" out of Aaron Eckart regarding his potential casting in THE DARK KNIGHT later in the evening at the bar. "We'll see" is well and good, but "Where did you hear that?" really raised my eyebrow. I think it's the best rumored casting for the Harvey Dent role we've come across since Liev Schreiber, so here's hoping Nolan lands him for the part.
I concur with my friend Mr. Tapley in regards to Eckhart as Dent...
BTW, Mr. Eckhart is kicking *** in BOF's latest "BAT-POLL," getting 55% of the "Dent Vote" so far. If you haven't voted yet, GO VOTE FOR YOUR CHOICE FOR DENT. Hell, you never know who may be paying attention to this site

Re: Batman 2 Discussion
Bittersweet news.
Eckhart, Gyellenhaal TDK update
Author: Jett
Saturday, February 10, 2007 - 6:01 AM CENTRAL TIME: IGN MOVIES shot BOF a heads up in regards to their recent TDK update. According to the report, Emily Blunt is not/no longer in the running to replace Katie Holmes as Rachel Dawes. However, Maggie Gyllenhaal is a very strong candidate to join Gotham's D.A. staff. Also, it's looking more and more like Aaron Eckhart will be cast as Harvey Dent. IGN says: "Sources indicated that both Eckhart and Gyllenhaal are at different points of negotiating for their respective roles -- things are "coming together" we were told -- and that it is 'definitely possible' that they will end up playing those roles."
IGN included a bit of a downer by reporting that there is nothing to indicate that Morgan Freeman will return as Lucius Fox. Says IGN, "Freeman's reps at the William Morris Agency advised IGN today, 'Nothing's been consummated.'" I'm sure I speak for all Batman fans in saying that Mr. Freeman -- and Lucius Fox -- has got to return!
