I just disagree. Maybe a few years back, but nowadays - especially with this generation - I think The Joker is way more popular/relevant than Lex Luthor.

I dunno, this generation's been raised on Smallville, and that show's gone a long way to establishing who's who in Superman's world since 01.

Impossible, Bruce Wayne is far too young. Robin doesn't show up until he is older, ignoring the fact he is robin it would still ruin the movie.

what do you mean older? Robin was around 11-12 when he showed up Bruce's life..and Bruce was in his early to mid-20's.

In my opinion, I think he would make the movie better. You can't have Batman without Robin, imo. He is the definition of the word sidekick.

Besides, it would bring some much needed comic relief to the movie. Batman is for the kiddies ya know.

I cant believe that people are saying that THE DARK KNIGHT was better then BATMAN BEGINS, oh my god.

batman begins was a much better movie.

but all things considered, the dark night is better on the strength of the joker. but when he is not on screen - you are just waiting for him to come back.

this movie can be a successful follow up but its probably going to need a stronger story this time around.

I think Hardy will be a great villain but it will be so, so hard to top the iconic clash of Batman and the Joker. It's pretty much the most famous pair of comic book rivals in history...and if they go for another more obscure villain like they did in Batman Begins (who really has a clue who Black Mask is beyond Batman fans?) it might be harder to up the ante on the hype that Dark Knight had.

I know that this doesn't matter, but they aren't - Superman and Lex Luthor are the most famous.

just couldn't let that slid..

The title applies to that line from Harvey Dent about how the night is darkest just before dawn...when the night rises. Get it?!

They probably couldn't use "Dark Knight Returns" because of the copyright issues.

But I have faith in Nolan that he'll deliver nothing less than a great movie. He's stunningly consistent.

Yeah, Nolan is a deity of dark epic gritty angstiness.

:rofl-lol:

You're such an awful poster and an even worse cupcake. Why do you persist?

Go make a thread about mustaches for the 10,024th time.

He is? I thought Batman Begins was awful. The Dark Knight was very good though.

I think Insomnia is his worst film and it's still a way-above-average genre thriller. Memento is brilliant, Batman Begins was very good (and a sigh of relief after so many shitty comic book movies), The Prestige was great fun, TDK was awesome and Inception was very engaging. He has yet to make a remotely bad film in my opinion. Following was a solid debut, too.

I persist because TDK is one of the most overrated movies of all time, and was the most overhyped because of Ledger's death. You act like it's like the best movie ever made. It isn't.

I remember reading a quote from Bale around the time of TDK that basically said if the name Robin appeared in the script he would quit the project immediately.

I think Penguin would be a good choice for the main villain if done well. Then they could introduce more obscure villains like Deadshot as hired assassins.
