    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.

    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: 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.

    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?

    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.)

    Out of all of this, I'm most bummed by what has become of Tim Drake, who for years became more interesting to me than Dick Grayson. I think he needs a fun team-up with Bart Allen and Connor Kent (does he even know they're back? I've missed a lot).


    I'm always willing to give Morrison another try, despite the last two events he helmed. His hit rate is always around .750 with me. Winnick, on the other hand, I have forever sworn off. I seriously want that man back at Marvel and away from some of my favorite DC characters.


    I've enjoyed Rucka immensely in the past, but for some reason his Crime Bible stuff just never caught on with me. Sad to hear he's still using it in Detective now (and with Batwoman again! That characters whole existence/appearance seems to be tied up with Crime Bible thus far. Expand!).

    @DocSeuss: True - it's more a problem with the art in general. It's a little like whatever you see on the screen is the responsibility of the director, one could argue. Either way, I should have been clearer.

    @ Graeme: You LUUUVVVVV Batman: Brave and the Bold and you're criticizing Grant Morrison use of outlandish characters? Not that I'm directly comparing the two - Grant Morrison is a genius - Batman Brave and the Bold is one of the most retarded cartoons I've ever seen. One clearly has questionable taste if they prefer the hideous Cartoon Series over the wonderful BATMAN RIP and FINAL CRISIS.

    However, given that Grant Morrison is the ONLY reason I've deigned to buy a Batman comic book in like FOREVER, Clearly, Grant Morrison's Batman is the best BATMAN HAS EVER BEEN.

    @SnehalMarten: You might want to double-check the byline, although I can understand the confusion (it's because I write in a Scottish accent, isn't it?).


    Either way, I've got no issue with Grant Morrison's outlandish characters. I love most everything he's done from Animal Man to Doom Patrol to the Invisibles, and I'm generally well disposed to Final Crisis and (especially) Batman: RIP. I'm just saying that this new book will appeal even to those left cold by his last two works.

    There's one panel where she looks more like V from V from Vendetta than anything else, and that was a guy wearing a mask.


    "Guy wearing a mask" - for the record, the pun there is only very, very slightly intended. But I was aware of it!
