    Does this mean it will only be played in IMAX theatures or will he just use better cameras so that is will look better in IMAX.

    I seriously doubt they would only show it in IMAX as at most of the theatures I have seen there is only one IMAX screen for a theature of 30 screens.

    Only one person can successfully play the role of catwoman.

    That person is Tracy Morgan.

    Pray to whatever gods you believe in that Megan Fox never be involved in Batman.

    I'm really hoping for Catwoman to be in the next film- it makes sense with bats now skirting the wrong side of the law- but I really hope toe-thumbs isn't involved. That's almost a deal-breaker for me.

    This rumor makes me miss the Miley Cyrus rumor.

    "Which sounds like something that belongs in a litterbox."

    From your lips to Gods ears, Meredith.

    All I'm going to to say about the subject of who Catwoman should be can be summed up in this video..

    @se7a7n7: Glau is great lookin and a great actress, but I gotta agree with Dash that she just doesn't have that certain cinematic je ne sais quois. She's like the Ted Danson of punching robots and aliens.

    @se7a7n7: Thanks! Now I just wasted half of my morning watching Summer on Youtube! The scene from Angel of her dancing actually brought a tear to my eye.

    Summer is glorious and has amazing presence. If she were Catwoman I would be there. Casting Megan Fox would mean I would skip the movie altogether.

    Summer kicks ass and everyone knows it.

    Why talk about a hot chick who kicks ass makes you thing about Ted Danson is another story.

    I am going to take the high road and say that giving Megan Fox the opportunity to work with a director of quality like Christopher Nolan will be a good thing for her career.

    Never took you for a Megan Fox hater, Meredith. Is it because you don't want her stink on the film?

    @NerD!!! - R.O.A.C.H.: It'll never happen. Acting aside her look wouldn't fit in with the world they've created. But going with the Jennifer's Body leitmotif of the day I would say that I could see that Amanda Seyfried possibly pulling it off.

    Well, the IMAX rumor isn't credible for purely technical reasons. And the Megan Fox rumor is only credible if Nolan isn't directing.

    @Darklighter: to say nothing of profit reasons. Wikipedia suggests there are only ~160 IMAX theatres in the US. releasing a movie that can only be seen in that few venues is a surefire way to guarantee fiscal failure.

    @zerofritz: No kidding. Not to mention the 1 greatest fault with IMAX cameras that Nolan himself addressed during production of The Dark Knight:

    They're really fucking loud, and make shooting dialogue scenes very difficult.

    Part of me is saying: HELLLS YA!

    The rational side (not infected with lust for women with a freaky streak) is saying: Woah! She's not exactly the bestest actress in the world, hotness aside (not that it stopped Julie Newmar.) And hopefully it won't be as bad as the litter box worthy Catwoman.

    Damn. Another fight between lust and intellect (or at least in my case, intallact.)

    Finally,
    Which sounds like something that belongs in a litterbox.
