The Batman Reboot Casting Thread - Part 6

[Rodrigo90]

Hmm, i see her name suggested for literally every role but what has she actually been in? Im checking out her IMDB page and i cant recognize any of her work. Then again maybe im just old. Guess im hitting that ol' crossroad that Rodrigo90 was talking about.

If it's any constellation...I'm an old 23

 

[Harry Dresden]

This thread makes me feel young.

 

[Rorschach2012]

im around your age rodrigo, growing up in the 90s and early 2000s was a great time for being a young Batman fan

Saturday morning on channel 3, B:TAS
Being a kid, you only thought B&R was nothing short of awesome lol
Many good memories of Batman
The first game I ever rented from Blockbuster was BF. I remember seeing it on the window advertising, and I ran from my family to go inside and grab a box and ran out with it

Keswick car museum in the UK. When I was 5 or 6, I climbed up the platform and jumped in the Adam West Batmobile, got told off for that lol
Then down the corridor, I saw Keaton's Batmobile and instantly crossed the red rope to touch it. Skimming my hand along the left side

Haha, don't worry, the years go by faster than you think. Sooner than you think your standing at that crossroad! Then you'll be an old Bat-fan too. t:

You lucky, lucky devil you! Closest thing i got, is i got a free batman soda at the supermarket, when the 89 movie came out!

That's right, Batman had his own soda in Sweden in 89. It tasted orange, sorta like Fanta but sweeter.

 

[Rodrigo90]

Lol
I wish they'd release stuff like that again for the 75th!

And the Batmobile was a monster to stand next to.
It was amazing, of course! But it was actually pretty intimidating as well. I felt like it's headlights were frowning at me

 

[Eddie Dean]

I want this again!

 

[Rodrigo90]

I can still remember the days I'd see that symbol, even after 89, and I'd just levitate towards it lol

Yup, B:TAS started my obsession... i had the vhs tapes, and then TNBA came out and i was obsessed with that too, I'd always watch it on Kids WB.

I had the Batman Forever game too!! But i sucked at video games and never got that far though. Still though, i loved that game.

That's seriously too awesome that you were that close to both of those cars. I'm jealous.

 

[Rodrigo90]

All the Batmobiles are now in America...but I'll never forget those feelings of touching them

 

[Rodrigo90]

And I remember very rarely just getting past the first level in BF lol

It was difficult and cryptic - I was only 4 playing it

 

[bluerayer]

I want this again!

Haha, that's awesome. If they had sold this over here my daily diet would have consisted of Bat-Cereal and milk only!

 

[Rodrigo90]

Nothing beats those early days of marketing. Nothing

Maybe there'll be some Batman Vs. Superman cereal? Or a soda? We can hope.

 

[Rodrigo90]

Won't be a patch on the old days

I loved the marketing we had for TDK. It sucked you in. Would've been way better had Heath lived, God bless his soul.

Yeah.

 

[Rodrigo90]

Zhang Ziyi for Lady Shiva?

 

[Rodrigo90]

Talia?

 

[regwec]

I would prefer Talia to be more exotic than that, if she reappears. Cotillard was abysmal, and white washing only made it worse.

I would suggest Frieda Pinto, on a preliminary basis.

I kind of agree with this. Talia and her father should at least be somewhat ethnic.

Penelope Cruz would make an interesting Talia .

 

[Rodrigo90]

Just get our Chezza for Talia

She's loved Batman since we were kids. She'd go and see BF like 10 times a day

 

[shauner111]

Berenice Marlohe.

 

[Pyro Man]

I know I've got some young folks in here but I'm thinking about people that'll be age appropriate for those parts when they'll actually be making the next solo flick (probably not til around 2019 or 2020)

Batman: Ben Affleck
Alfred: Jeremy Irons
Jim Gordon: Bryan Cranston
Dick Grayson/Robin/Nightwing: Asa Butterfield
Barbara Gordon/Batgirl: Elle Fanning
Catwoman: Rebecca Hall
Joker: No idea.
Harley Quinn: Alison Brie
Penguin: Bob Hoskins (damn shame about him having to retire)
The Riddler: Michael C. Hall
Mr. Freeze: Benedict Cumberbatch

That's all I have for now.

 

[Rodrigo90]

2019-2020?

Charlize might look like roadkill and Willem Dafoe will be 100!
