The Dark Knight Latest Report for 5/9

[Katsuro]

If Bettany's in, who's out? One of the three other choices have to be out. Hugo Weaving, Lachy Hulme, or Jude Law. Anyways, great news Bettany is back. All this Bettany talk has quited down over the past several weeks. I changed my mind about him, after I saw his performance in Gangster No.1. After seeing that Four Jacks video clip, I have to say that was great acting by Hulme.

Why does one have to be out? Why can't they be looking at more than 3 candidates at once? I'm sure Hulme, Law, Weaving, and Bettany are all being considered, as well as a few others.

Because there's only room in roll'n's brain for three things at a time?

I'm afraid by my standards, Harvey Dent must be a complete badass.


I've never seen Josh Lucas be much of a badass at all...like ever.

 

[Batman]

I really, really, really hope Lucas gets Dent.

And while I've never been a big fan of Paul Betanny as The Joker, I gotta say... I wouldn't mind it one bit, especially seeing the Da Vinci Code stuff.

LOL. Yeah, I know. On the other hand, sometimes actors can surprise us. We've never seen Josh Lucas be a badass, but that doesn't mean he oculdn't be. Sorta like Matt McCaunaghey - before "Reign of Fire" I'd never seen Matt McCaunaghey be badass. He was uber-badass in "Reign of Fire." His character was my favorite thing about that movie.

 

[Ronny Shade]

excellent point.

But still I know Liev Schreiber can be a badass. I know Dougray Scott can be a badass, and I know Joaquin Pheonix can be a badass.

Here's hoping.

Oh yeah. Any of those guys could pistol whip Josh Lucas in their sleep.

 

[StorminNorman]

You know who else could pistol while Josh Lucas in their sleep?











Christopher Meloni

Chris Meloni could pistol whip satan in his sleep.

I take it you just got through watching SVU too?

Sadly no I just find Chris Meloni be the American Television equivilant to Paul Bettany

 

[Darth Nata]

I will be pretty devastated if Josh Lucas gets the role of Harvey Dent

Then pray hard.

 

[Ronny Shade]

Chris Meloni's got a great head.

perfect shape for comic movie. He should be in one.

 

[Katsuro]

You know... we have a Joker Poll 2.0, does anyone think we need a new Harvey Dent Poll? We haven't had one in a long time, and even if we did i'm sure people's minds have changed.

Help me list some candidates to put on it and i'll make one. Anyone who's either rumored to be up for it, or has at least a small fanbase. Right now I can think of:

Liev Schreiber
Josh Lucas
Hugh Jackman
Joaquin Pheonix
Dougray Scott

Who else could I throw up there?

Latest Bat-Scuttlebutt
Author: Jett
Tuesday, May 9, 2006 -11:39 AM CENTRAL TIME: What’s up y’all? Jett here. Our ‘ol friend “Jindrak” is back with some information for all of you Bat-fans. But first…
Let me preface by saying this: please read the disclaimer above. Did you read it? Good! Let me emphasize that part that says “unless otherwise noted, all BATMAN movie news should be considered rumor and treated as such.” So please remember, we do report rumors. However, the buzz we report comes from sources that we’ve known for a long while and have been dead on accurate in the past. The rumors are simply part of the fun and the build up towards the next Bat-flick, right? When I tell y’all to chisel something in stone, go buy the damn hammer! And please don’t think I’m being condescending here, OK? While I KNOW most of you get it, some of my dear readers don’t -- and they let me know it in their emails.
Now, on with today’s report…
I’m going to simply list several of his blurbs -- some will be quotes, others will consist of me paraphrasing “Jindrak.”
“With the inclusion of the Joker & the general public’s renewed interest, Warner know & appreciate more than ever the importance of listening to the fans & leaving Chris & David to get on with it!”
Paul Bettany is “in the mix” for the part of The Joker. As he himself recently, it’s all about money and negotiating power. It’s not lost on anyone that he’s one of the fan faves for the role.
“As for Josh Lucas and the role of Harvey Dent, I’ve been informed that Christian is very much behind Josh, having worked with him on AMERICAN PSYCHO. If the fans are just as passionate about him getting the role of Harvey as Josh is, then its a very good chance he will be the new DA of Gotham City.”
As it has been reported here and on other sites, work is “well underway” on The Sequel. In the coming months, “speculation will be rife regarding various roles within the sequel & it's plot, which is to be expected.”
So strap yourself in boys, it’s going to get wild!

I dunno about you guys but I'm warming up to the idea of Josh Lucas. I still like the idea of Schreiber too, though. I'd be fine with either one as Dent.

NO to Josh Lucas as Dent! Arrrrrrgh.....

 

[Dark Knight]

I will be pretty devastated if Josh Lucas gets the role of Harvey Dent

I agree.....I would rather have Gyllenhaal be Dent....easily! Lucas would be a very bland choice.....

 

[Dark Knight]

thank god schrebier is losing steam....

go lucas

Lucas sucks......

 

[Katsuro]

Lucas sucks......

Why?

Guy Pearce
Jack Gyllenhaal

I would prefer Liev Schreiber though.

 

[Maxwell Smart]

Liev Schreiber is my first choice still too, but like I said no problems with Lucas.

 

[Dark Knight]

Why?

none of his work has impressed me.....at all! I just don't like the way he looms or acts either......ever since I saw him in Hulk....i have always felt he sucks....and whatever movie he is in.....I refuse to see it. Saw him in Psycho bu accident......saw him in Hulk by accident...he was annoying....NEVER saw that Alabama movie with him and Reese. Never wanted to see him Stealth, cause the movie looked like it sucked anyhow.....i want to see Poseidon....because I like Kurt Russell and I want to see the effects....but once again....Lucas is in it....and he will ruin the movie for me. Lets just say there are better actors to choose from for Dent, than Lucas.

 

[Dark Knight]

Guy Pearce
Jack Gyllenhaal

I would prefer Liev Schreiber though.

I would rather have Gyllenhaal over Lucas as Dent any day of the week. I suggest you folks who have not seen Donnie Darko.....see it....and you will know Gyllenhaal can pull it off.

 

[Ronny Shade]

Rufus Sewell

 

[Dark Knight]

Guy Pearce
Jack Gyllenhaal

I would prefer Liev Schreiber though.

thats my finalist list as well

Schrieber
Gyllenhaal
Pearce

 

[Dark Knight]

i get a kick how Jetts report states...."if the fans want Lucas as much as he wants to be Dent, then I'm sure he will get it"

Huh?? I'm pretty sure most of us in here do not want that guy as Dent correct?
