[Sawyer]

flickchick's avvy gave me an idea....

Leslie Thompkins.

 

[Eddie Dean]

"Bruce, everything you do is so dramatic and flamboyant. It just makes me want to set myself on fire."

 

[Sawyer]

I just want an entire film where Leslie insinuates that Selina is overweight.

 

[Eddie Dean]

Or David Cross as Selina.

 

[Sawyer]

With that mustache? No way.... Gordon.

 

[Eddie Dean]

Maybe, but he was born for Egghead.

 

[Sawyer]

I'm throwing Denis O'Hare out there for the Joker. The latest episode of True Blood where he crashes some chick's terrible karaoke and kills her is just such a Joker thing to do.

Leslie Thompkins.

That would certainly be an interesting re-imagining of the character. Bold. Visionary, even.

 

[Sawyer]

Honestly, an entire recast with the AD cast would be for the best.

Nothing could beat it.

 

[flickchick85]

I can just imagine this voice saying, "I'M BATMAN" -

 

[Roose Bolton]

Harry Lloyd is still my number one pick for the Joker. He's got the right look/build and I think he'd be really good at capturing the characters upredictability.

 

[Sawyer]

As long as he gets to call Harley a "horse-lord ****" and slap her around a little.

[Jplaya2023]

Michael Jai White = Batman (he's played spawn before so he's a familiar face)

Halle Barry = Catwoman (save the jokes i know)

Morgan Freeman = Lucious Fox (plays the role to perfection)

Michael Clark Duncan = Bane (same build height already played kingpin)

Samuel Jackson = Gordon (perfect for the role, currently plays Nick Fury)

Marlon Wayans = Robin/Nightwing (Was actually casted to be robin in an earlier version of batman)

The dude who plays Alfred Now = Alfred

I'll add more

Directed by Tyler Perry.


I know the joke was made before, but so has the color blind casting bit.

Directed by Tim Burton.

What joke are you referring to?

 

[terry78]

That any movie with that many black people can't be directed by anyone but Perry.

 

[Rowsdower!]

Well, to be fair, he did include "The Dude Who Plays Alfred Now."

Great actor, that guy. Maybe with the success of The Dark Knight Trilogy, he'll actually become a household name. Wonder if he's been in anything else.

It has nothing to do with the amount of black people, it has to do with the black version of white washing characters.

Unless he was casting for Stan Lee's Batman.

 

[Eddie Dean]

Here's one to chew on -

Bill Paxton as Gordon

nice sarcasm Rowsdower!

 

[Rowsdower!]

Haha, thanks.

Whenever I see something like that, it just makes me facepalm. I can accept it if someone doesn't know Michael Caine by name. But is it really THAT hard to go to IMDB or Wikipedia and look it up?

 

[Zatanna]

Here's one to chew on -

Bill Paxton as Gordon

ACK! I really... just don't like him for some reason.

 

[darthneo64]

I'm sure it has been said before, and while I really like Bale as Batman, the next guy to play him need to be about 6'3" - 6"4"...

 

[Brian2887]

No.. No he doesn't.
