Balls nasty."? *weeps* I guess my brain just was processing all the Millermania sweeping Hollywood and assumed that a switch to Dark Knight meant Dark Knight Returns. Good casting calls for Returns, Jason! Clint is a great one for mr. Batman and while Sean Connery begins to annoy me (and by begins, I mean, has annoyed me for innumerable moons, now) he would make a good Green Arrow. Superman doesn't matter, although it's critical that he gets the beating of a lifetime. :) Yeah, the problem with the Speed Racer clip was indeed that it took itself far to seriously, despite the obvious camp involved in it. Grrr.. I like Christian Bale as a young batman, but I dunno... he might not age all craggy faced like Clint!

I agree, it's FAR too serious to be anything but a mockery of itself. Ahhhh Dark Knight! I think they went with that title specificly to put distance between these movies and the movies from the 90's. (bad guys on roller blades... booo.) Someone will do Returns one day, one can only hope they do it as close to frame by frame as possible. Even on a level of the first Superman where they got the basic tone would be amazing. Slice and Dice. Clint Eastwood? ! ? ! :) If Batman were packin heat maybe.... although in DKR I believe there is a scene where Batman sports a sniper rifle. I think they should wait until Christian Bail gets old then do the film :p Or a complete unknown. That Speed Racer clip sucked. I agree, it’s FAR too serious to be anything but a mockery of itself.

The movie is nothing (directly) to do with Miller/Jansen/Varley's "The Dark Knight Returns." Batman was called the Dark Knight before that particular series came out in 1986 (though you can blame it for a lot of the "dark" aesthetic that took over a lot of Batmanity including this Nolan/Bale movie series). But if they ever do film that, they need to cast Clint Eastwood as Bats, right? And Sean Connery as the Green Arrow. Superman doesn't age, so he's no fun. Yeah, what Howie said.

If you remember really hard, this would be the third Batman movie they said is loosely based on the dark knight, albeit the firs that took its name. Just to get things back into the positive... i DO think it will be a great movie. Just not the one 20 years after batman retires or the one featuring superman is tearing the arms off of any archers.
