Too bad they won't incorporate the bat-swarm scene from Year One. :-\
Yeah, I really hope his fight against the cops is as cool as it is in Year One and The Dark Knight Returns. It'd be my dream if this batman movie had involved Frank Miller as much as Rodriguez involved him in Sin City. Alas, tis only a dream.

Please take Katie Holmes off that poster.

k. thnx. bye.

(NO KEN WATANABE??!?!!!)

Why would they put that asian in it? I mean, he's only the MAIN VILLAIN.

Yeah, WTF is up with the lack of Ken Watanabe?
Well, he is listed on the credits at the bottom. It's just a lame marketing decision. After all, I don't think Watanabe is a name most Americans will recognize. Likewise with the others who are relegated only to the smaller print credits.

Hah, Alfred gets second headline credit behind Batman himself. It's the rise of the butlers!
 
The audience her at GAF is not your typical movie going crowd, especially not for a film like this one. The average American doesn't know who Ken Watanabe is, let alone how to pronounce his name. He was awesome in The Last Samurai though and I was very excited when I heard he was in Batman Begins.

Poster looks sweet!

For the record... Ken Watanabe for nominated for an Academy Award. He's also, generally, known for being a fantastic actor among his peers.

And if you look at the list with me:

2 academy award winners... I think Neeson was nominated... Gary Oldman is a wonderful character actor (and, basically, amazing)... Bale is wonderful and...

...

KATIE FUCKING HOLMES.

Please. PLEASE.

I can't speak much for Katie's, well, I guess we'll call it 'acting ability', but I can thank Sam Raimi for allowing us to see her boobies.

Cool poster, I like the previous ones more, though.

Also, I fear that Katie Holmes is going to ruin this film for me. I just HATE her(and pretty much every single Dawson's Creek actor). Hopefully her role is small...

Just checked the international release dates at the official website...hah! I'll be seeing this thing before you, yanks. :p

Fuck Katie Holmes. Seriously. I'm not gonna see this movie now because of the poster (not true).

(BTW... I'm sure she has a minor role... this will center around Wayne/Batman mostly... the size of the cast tells you this.)

Off topic, but I know everyone loves the original Batman, but I was watching it again, and Michael Keeton is -fucking- awesome as Bruce Wayne. I don't know if he plays the role accurately because I haven't read a lot of the comics, but his acting was great!

Serious, that scene where he's in Val's apartment and Joker stops by. Great stuff!

I wonder whatever happened to Michael Keaton. I don't remember him in too many more movies after that. I don't even remember his performance in the 2nd Batman

I don't mean to alarm you but you have dogs on your face
GARY FUCKING OLDMAN?! I had no idea. And Katie Holmes? Will she show her tits?

Okay, I'm sold.

Yikes. These posters are meticulously created to draw the most attention. "Katie Holmes" will ultimately have more influence than "Ken Watanabe". It's not a matter of respect, but DRAW -- that is all.

I really enjoyed Batman and parts of Batman Returns. Having read the comics, I realize why people would HATE them (Batman kills, Joker is the guy who killed his parents, Gordon is fat, Harvey Dent is Lando, etc). However, the scene above plus others (mostly involving Jack Nicholson) made it fun to watch.

He was in White Noise.

Oh yeah, he was in Live from Baghdad. That was a pretty good movie.

Otherwise, I haven't seen or remembered his performance in any of those other movies.

Why was someone laughing at my comment? Do most people actually hate it?

I'm probably the most vocal critic of the Burton flicks on the entire planet. :lol There are others on this board who agree with my assesment that they're tripe, but nobody goes out of their way more to eschew this opinion more then I. Admittedly it's sad as hell, but it's how I get my kicks. :lol
