The Dark Knight New casting rumour: Emily Blunt

[Crooklyn]

So what? Holmes still looks like she is 17 years old.

O...k..

And since Emily looks older than Holmes, we can conclude that according to you, Emily looks older than 17. Which is a good thing. Get where I'm going at?

 

[The Only Woj]

Emily Blunt, Rachel McAdams...either one could work I guess.

But who cares, I wanna know who's playing Dent.

it would be easier to accept Blunt as Dawes than McAdams, simply because McAdams is more recognizable and you would expect her to be in a unique role, not a recasted position.

Plus, Blunt would be a lot lighter on the pocket books.

I think it is you who does not get whee *I* am going, sir.

My point is so ****ing what if Emily Blunt looks older than Katie Holmes? Katie Holmes looks like a ****ing teenager. Rachel Dawes is in her mid-30s for Christ's sake.

 

[Cinemaman]

Emily Blunt? Well, she is not so well known, but I wouldn't mind to see her as Rachel though

The continuity is already screwed up with a recast. You wanna mess with it even MORE, by making the character looking 15+ years older in a matter of 3 years?

^ I'm not trusting him, he's unshaven

So? What's the problem? I am myself growing a beard t:

PLEASE...slap yourself for being an idiot. K?

For god's sake...are you REALLY serious?

Mess with continuity???? The character is SUPPOSED to be 2 years older than Bruce FFS. How old the character looks has jack **** to do with continuity, chief. The continuity would only be damaged further if they actually re-wrote the character as being younger or older. How old the actress looks has NOTHING to do with continuity in the story.

I hate to be this mean but god, that was just stupid.

 

[Cinemaman]

Blunt looks old for her age. I would give her 27-28.

 

[JStorm]

Blunt looks very old for your age. I would give her 26-27.

26-27 is old?

I'm getting old then.

 

[Maxwell Smart]

26-27 is old?

I'm getting old then.

Reading comprehension has PWNED you my friend.

Ya Rly.

Fact 1: Rachel is 2 years older than Bruce in the film's story
Fact 2: Despite Fact 1, on FILM...Rachel still looks significantly younger than Bruce

I'm sorry you haven't been outside nearly enough to notice that people look younger than they are actually are. So yes...it is possible to look much younger than someone that's older than you.

The continuity would only be damaged further if they actually re-wrote the character as being younger or older.

BB: Audience sees Rachel looking like she's in her early to mid 20s
TDK: Audience sees Rachel looking like she's in her mid 30s despite the film taking place right after BB.

Right....NO ONE'S gonna notice that.

How old the actress looks has NOTHING to do with continuity in the story.

Except I wasn't referring to the story's continuity dipsh1t.

I hate to be this mean but god, that was just stupid.

Don't worry, I have a box of Kleenex handy when the time does come for me to cry.

.......

I don't know what to say to this except...

"English, mother****er! Do you speak it?!?"

Sorry, I'm currently going through withdrawal.

What I meant is, So what? She looks older than Holmes."

My conclusion for this whole recasting thing is simple: it´s gonna be the hundredth billionth thing that fanboys freak out about like little kids who got lost from their mommies for months and then turns out just fine on the screen.

Blow-up dolls.

Damn

For some reason, every comment you make now seems so brilliant and trustworthy.

 

[Maxwell Smart]

Um......what?

I don't think I've seen a single movie Rachel McAdams has been in. So, either will work out for me.

 

[Gold Samurai]

is she taller than Bale cause thats the main thing to worry about? jk

I second this.

I personally think Emily Blunt is a great choice. Even though she's much younger in real life, looks more mature. If I hadn't check her age in imdb, I would think she was 25 to 28, because she kinda played a person who appeared to be older than anne hatheway's character in the "Devil" movie.

Whereas, everyone still thinks Katie Holmes is a teenager because she played one on Dawson's Creek for about 5 seasons. And it was kinda hard to imagine her as a DA in that movie. But I thought the role of Rachel was a young D.A. so I was able to accept it. Heck, Bruce Wayne was supposedly still in college when it was revealed she was asst. D.A.
