http://movies.yahoo.com/photos/batman-ca...5724563047.html The script isn't even written yet and filming won't commence until early 2014, but it's never too early to speculate on who might be taking up the cape and cowl as the next big-screen incarnation of the Caped Crusader.

Most actors can look good in the batsuit. It's Bruce Wayne they need to cast for.
Josh Brolin my pick for the part.

SoM should see if he could get cast for Batmite. He may be to tall for the part.

No one on that list. It should be Jon Hamm or Jim Caviezel.

Ryan Gosling seems to be one of the top picks, along with Josh Brolin. I hope it's Brolin. Ryan Gosling is a good actor but he doesn't look like Bruce Wayne or Batman. Because he's got a shovel for a chin.

Brolin has really come into his own in the last few years. His most prominent piece being No country for old men.
He also did a really good impression of Tommy Lee Jones in MIB3 and, love or loathe the film, his portrayal of Jonah Hex was spot on, even if you hated the film itself.

If Brolin does get the part it will be the first time in history that Batman fucked Ma Kent.

That's not what the article says: 'He could probably make $50 million for being in the movie 20 minutes,' my friend observed. 'And it would be worth every penny to the studio.' It was literally something a dude's friend said could happen and people started reporting it and it made it to my local newspaper. Journalism!

That's dumb. Bale isn't going to get offered $50m. Besides, I thought the Robin dude was there to continue Batman's appearances in movies, and allow Bruce Wayne to get the peace the director thought he deserved (I have said elsewhere that I loved the end of that movie).

Hasn't Lothar been married twice?
Call me a flaming girly fanboy, but I'd love the actor from Arrow to have a cameo where he fires a kryptonite-tipped arrow at Supes a la DKR.

if it's going to be a fight between supes and bats, it's kind of a given that kryptonite will play a part somewhere.
Has there ever been a comic book fight between the two that didn't include kryptonite or red sun?

There's 0% chance they're going to link the Superman/Justice League movies to Nolan's movies, because that would be silly. It would mean that at any point during the six months when Gotham was taken over by Bane, Ryan Reynolds could have swooped by and fixed everything with his magic ring.

Ben Affleck Is the New Batman
The actor will replace Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne in the upcoming untitled Batman-Superman feature for Warner Bros., the studio announced Thursday.
Affleck becomes the eighth actor to play the Caped Crusader, following Bale, George Clooney and Michael Keaton.
“We knew we needed an extraordinary actor to take on one of DC Comics’ most enduringly popular Super Heroes, and Ben Affleck certainly fits that bill, and then some,” WB president Greg Silverman said in a statement.
Directed by “Man of Steel” filmmaker Zack Snyder, the Batman-Superman feature will open worldwide on July 17, 2015, with Henry Cavill, Amy Adams and Diane Lane reprising their roles.
“Man of Steel,” released this past June, has earned over $650 million at the global box office.
“Ben provides an interesting counter-balance to Henry’s Superman. He has the acting chops to create a layered portrayal of a man who is older and wiser than Clark Kent and bears the scars of a seasoned crime fighter, but retain the charm that the world sees in billionaire Bruce Wayne,” Snyder said in a statement. “I can’t wait to work with him.”
The announcement of a Batman-Superman film was revealed last month at Comic-Con to much excitement of fanboys, who will surely be watching as the studio begins to assemble its Justice League.
The irony of Thursday’s news is that at one point Warner Bros. was interested in having Affleck direct the “Justice League” movie and his participation in this film will now spur interest if whether his casting means a possibility of directing that film.
The Boston native recently upped his Hollywood power when he won the Best Picture Oscar for “Argo.”
Affleck, repped by WME, can be seen next in Fox and New Regency’s thriller “Runner Runner.”

This is a common tactic in the Philippines. Everytime the government is in the hot seat, they ask one of the two large media companies to stage a scandal. People get distracted, and the government is off the hook.
I bet the white house's recent eid al ft lockdown didn't work, so they ask Warner Bros. to do something stupid and voila! the NSA is forgotten.

Or so some Batman fans thought when they signed a petition at "We the People" to request Affleck's removal from playing the Caped Crusader in the upcoming Man of Steel sequel. "We the People" is part of the White House's official web site where common folk can push change they can believe in.
Sadly, the petition has been taken down from the site.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murders_of_Channon_Christian_and_Christopher_NewsomThere's way too many. And the consistent pattern of media coverage: The national news media was criticized for ignoring the story because the victims were white and all five of the suspects were black; most news reports came from local media and online news sites.[46][47] I first became aware of this reading DEATH OF THE WEST by Pat Buchanan, in particular the ironies of "hate crimes", in pages 65-71.
- from Do Racists have lower IQ's...
Liberals who bemoan discrimination, intolerance, restraint of Constitutional freedoms, and promotion of hatred toward various abberant minorities, have absolutely no problem with discriminating against, being intolerant of, restricting Constitutional freedoms of, and directing hate-filled scapegoat rhetoric against conservatives.
EXACTLY what they accuse Republicans/conservatives of doing, is EXACTLY what liberals/Democrats do themselves, to those who oppose their beliefs.

So, anyway, back to Batman: I'm listening to Geektime on Sirius and people are calling in complaining that they don't like Affleck's casting, not because of how he'll Batman, but because he's too much...a pretty boy…to play….Bruce Wayne?!?  Has there ever been a time in Batman history where the whole point wasn't that Bruce Wayne was a foppish pretty boy and, as a result no one suspected he was Batman? Did something change in a reboot that I'm not aware of?
