Ok, the new Batman series is officially dead.

It seems that [glow=red,2,300]Eddie Murphy [/glow] will play the Riddler!?!? [glow=red,2,300]Shia LaBeof [/glow] as Robin!?!?

 

Christian Bale and ALfred are back thankfully, but there would have to be some MAJOR acting improvement by the above actors to get a positive response from fans. I feel the series is now turning into the puff fluff of the earlier movies now.

No way thats true. A month ago they were saying Johnny Depp and Phillip Seymour Hoffman were gonna be in it. Its bogus. Nolan said he would never include Robin and there is no way they have Eddim Murphy is the riddler. 

 

Anyway the guys that would make it are all on a long vacation. Or in Bales case working on other move like the new terminator.

 

Beside Chris and Jonah Nolan's next movie is called The Prisoner. You won't see a new a sequel till 2012. Batman Begins came out 2004, The Dark Knight 2008 the next one won't be out for another 4 years.

 

The story is BS.

Casting announcements on IMDB should be taken with a very large grain of salt. I recall a few years ago they had Tim Curry slated to play the First Evil for the final season of Buffy.  It wasn't true.

 

Most of the movie buzz sites debunked those rumors- even to the point where the CEO of WB made an official statement that said he was looking forward to Nolan's pitch on a new story, but that they were not even that far yet. The British tabs that flew the Eddie Murphy/Shia Labeouf rumors were just going for traffic.

 

Having said all that, I feel it is time for you all to know something....I am Batman.

I dont think it was the moment to come out as batman wes. Does that mean I have to come out as Batgirl too??  ;D

I'd come out as Robin, but I don't swing that way...

Dude, role-revealing that early?

Yeah, he's so not surviving the night.

Right, isn't this the same UK tabloid that declared Cher would play Catwoman?

 

If it isn't stated in an official press release, ignore it.

I agree with reyler that particular tabloid hasn't been that reliable in the past about whose playing parts. I would wait for the official press release.

just a little spoof of the joker's scar story i found funny

This spoof is hysterical... it mocks the crappy voice accent that Bale was doing with Batman...

 

 

1:40 is my favorite line.

 

Hah, I've seen that before, its the greatest thing ever.
