Bats, IM, Cap Am news? May. 6, 2008
Source: Cinemablend by: James Thoo


Cinemablend has reported three comic-related rumors today. Alone, none of these would probably have been enough to warrant an article, but I figure at least one must have something to it. I think Gaia figured the same thing when she gave the rings out to the Planeteers, because no way Ma-Ti gets a ring on his own. And if it's a good enough policy for Mother Nature, it's good enough for me.

First up, apparently, in Gotham, for the third BATMAN film, The Joker is out. Like completely out. No re-casting, and I couldn't agree more. Instead we'll get a film that continues with Two Face, and possibly... sees the introduction of Robin? Also: Nolan is doing a Guillermo del Toro, and getting out after 3. Boo.

Second, apparently, Marvel was really busy today and couldn't make it round to punch your childhood in the nuts. Sorry. They will however, do the next best thing and draw up a shortlist of candidates for the vacant CAPTAIN AMERICA role, with Matthew McConaughey at the head.

And thirdly, apparently one of the plot lines being pushed for the IRON MAN sequel has Jackson’s Nick Fury enlisting the help of Tony Stark in going after a terrorist called The Mandarin. And the best bit (and probably my favorite ever sentence): The Mandarin will have at his disposal, an inter-galactic dragon called Fing Fang Foom.

Of course, all of this is just rumor at the moment. So don't worry about the McConaughey thing too much. But please, please, my friends: discuss!

WHAT ABOUT.....
Anyone (everyone?) think Ryan Reynolds is too much of a wiseass/prettyboy character to play a Captain America?

Joker no recast is perfect and could only be done by Depp if they did, and as for Mr Freeze and all that, They are too outlandish and corny, but any genius could make them fit in a nolan world. Just doesn't seem important and Burton nailed Penguin in that mood the first time. Campy but Dark. As for Cap America. Paul Walker who i thought would have been a PERFECT DareDevil could pull it off. Brad Pitt was my first pice ever but he is aging and too big of a name to really be looked at as steve rogers unless the director atached is that good to make us forget all that.

The costume will be rather hard to make for the movies without the cornyness cause Cap America's costume is pointless and wouldn't really help him with much in the real world. Spidey, Ironman, Batman...all make sense with their respective attires, but Cap Am??? I don't know how they'll do it unless they Dare devil style him or something.

CAPTAIN AMERICA
Reign of Fire is enough evidence for me that McConaughey has what it takes to pull off the role.

Okay. I hope the Joker's story ark is complete. I'd be hip to the idea if it were necessary to do a Brandon Lee and have joker cameo in Bats 3. I just wouldn't want to see him as a main plot point. I'd love to see Two Face take the lead in 3. I'd love to see Paul Giamatti as The Penguin. I'm open to an intro to Robin but in passing. As for Captain America... No on Matthew. I'd prefer someone like Clive Owen or Brad Pitt as already mentioned. And what ever happens with Iron Man... I'm sure Marvel will do what is right. They have with this first one...

WHOA...PLZ NO
Please God, I will stop enabling Lindsey Lohan if you don't allow a "Robin" in the Batman movies. The only sidekick Bale needs is Oldman as Gordon.
Of course I would watch Bale mow the lawn. That guy rules.

My 2 cents for the Captain America role is....Mathew Fox of LOST? McConaughey is ok but I just don't see him in this role.

No McConaughey please. I like him, but not in that role.

Batman: I remember reading an interview when begins came out that Nolan wanted to do a trilogy, so that's no surprise. I always wondered if Nolan could pull of a kick-ass movie with some of the more cartoonish batman characters like Robin, penguin, or Mr. Freeze (not that this is a good idea, just something I played with in my mind). I really wanted the Joker to be in 3, but it makes sense to take him out rather than recast him.

Captain America: McConaughey hasn't done a good movie since the 90's, so he's a risky bet. I'd prefer Ryan Philippe.

Iron-man: i'd prefer them to focus on Iron-man rather than the avengers, but it could work either way.

TDK, IRON-MAN 2, CAPTAIN AMERICA
TDK: I'm glad their not thinking of bringing back the Joker for Batman 3, or re-casting the role, as for Robin, I don't know, I'd like to see Nolan pull off Catwoman in a 3rd film since it seems like he's doing characters already used in the previous films.

IRON-MAN 2: The idea of introducing Thor in Iron-Man 2 is great, and I can't wait to see the Mandarin on the big screen, but how will the Iron-Man trilogy end? if after 2 their making Avengers? and Fav's vision is to make an Iron-Man trilogy?

CAPTAIN AMERICA: I think I'm one of the few who likes 'The First Avenger' included in the Capt. film title, I hope they cast a good actor like they did with Robert Downey JR. and getr a good director.
