I just loved Batman Begins. Very few things wrong with it. But I swear to you this is the exact conversation I had on a radio Interview I did last week. A station was asking me about the new title “The Dark Knight” and if I thought a sequel would be any good. I basically said this:
“The movie will be amazing if for no other reason than Christopher Nolan is still directing it. That guy is just fantastic. I really… I really don’t see how this thing can miss, as long as they don’t pull the crap from the last bunch of Batman movies and start playing with the Bat outfit, you know… adding nipples and what not… and they have to get rid of Katie Holmes”.
So I almost had to laugh this morning when I read the following from the good folks at Cinematical:
they’ve stumbled upon some Katie Holmes dirt via Sympatico. Turns out, the actress has already begun training for her role in The Dark Knight, after being told she would need to be ready by January. Aside from taking on a strict diet, Holmes is keeping herself busy with a ton of yoga and kick-boxing. Unfortunately, it appears as if her role in the sequel will be pretty large.
And…
Batman’s costume will be altered for the sequel, in an attempt to mimic the changes Bruce Wayne would make as time evolved.
Why? Why whjy why have Katie “curtain rod” Holmes in this at all?!?! And if you MUST have her… why not just kill her inthe first 5 minutes?!?! I HATE these reports. Now I’m in a bad mood. Me kicking this kitten is on YOUR head Christopher Nolan!
