The Movie Blog: Kate Holmes Back For Next Batman. Dies?

I can’t wait!!

The guys over at Moviehole
have put up a VERY interesting comment about the upcoming Batman movie revolving
around the poster girl for “Waste of potential” Katie Holmes. Despite the fact
that almost NO ONE on the planet wants her in the next Batman flick, it appears
she will be there… but maybe that’s a GOOD thing! Here’s what he had to say:

Yep, Katie will indeed be reprising her role as Rachel Dawes for
the “Batman” sequel – as brief as her turn may be. Can’t say anymore without
being pummelled by David S.Goyer.

Ok, so this COULD be a good
news/Bad news situation. The bad news is obviously that Holmes will be back in
Batman (If you believe the story that is). However… saying it’ll only be a
small part… that COULD be FANTASTIC news. Think about it… why else have her
in there for a short time unless THEY’RE GOING TO KILL HER OFF!!! Oh man! Can
you imagine the cheers in the movie theaters across North America if that
happens! People want to see a “dark” batman? Imagine how “dark” they can make
him if his girl gets beaten to death by someone (probably the joker… but I’m
just guessing). Man, that would set up an AMAZING hate on between Bats and Joke.

So yeah, by all means bring Katie Holmes back… and then kill her. JOY!

The Movie Blog: Fantastic Four 2 Plot?

Hmmm interesting.  Let’s hope Galactus isn’t in a guy in a big rubber suit…

A couple of places around the web are reporting that the
plot synopsis for Fantastic Four 2 has been
released. I personally can neither confirm nor deny the authenticity of this…
but several other sites out there that I respect are saying it is. So there you
go.

The good folks over at Canmag gives us this outline of
the plot:

Marvel’s first family of superheroes, The Fantastic Four, meets
their greatest challenge yet in Fantastic Four and the Silver Surfer as the
enigmatic, intergalactic herald, The Silver Surfer, comes to Earth to prepare it
for destruction. As the Silver Surfer races around the globe wreaking havoc,
Reed, Sue, Johnny and Ben must unravel the mystery of the Silver Surfer and
confront the surprising return of their mortal enemy, Dr. Doom, before all hope
is lost.

Ok, now let’s just assume for a moment that this is all
legit. To me, that’s a pretty solid sounding basis for the next Fantastic Four
film. Now, we already know what the “secret” of the Silver Surfer is (Galactus),
but seeing a Silver Surfer on screen is going to be pretty damn cool… as long
as they can figure out a way to make sure he doesn’t just look sorta silly on
screen (I mean come on… you have to admit the POTENTIAL for high cheese is
there when the dude is called “The SIlver Surfer” and flies around on a cosmic
surf board
).

Also, it looks like the studio heard everyone complaining about the title
“Fantastic Four: The Next Chapter” and have apparently changed the name to
“Fantastic Four and the Silver Surfer”.

Your thoughts?

SUPER-SHOTS: A BEST SHOTS LOOK AT THE BEST OF SUPERMAN – NEWSARAMA

Good stuff!

Read the rest of the article at the link below.

SUPER-SHOTS: A BEST SHOTS LOOK AT THE BEST OF SUPERMAN – NEWSARAMA

SUPER-SHOTS: A BEST SHOTS LOOK AT THE BEST OF SUPERMAN



by the cast and crew of ShotgunReviews.com
Your Host: Troy Brownfield

S-Day is finally here! After a near two-decade absence from cinema,
Superman returns to the big screen. And to celebrate, members of the
Best Shots team have gotten together to recommend and speak on some of
their favorite Superman tales.

Up first, representing Texas, is Corey Henson.

When Troy asked me to write about my favorite Superman story, I had a
hard time figuring out what to write about. Would it be Joe Kelly’s
great “What’s So Funny About Truth, Justice and the American Way?” from Action Comics #775? Alan Moore’s “Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?” send-off to the Silver Age? Or that cool scene in JLA where the electric Blue Superman used his new powers to create an electromagnet and push the moon away from the Earth?

So who HASN’t been attached to the role of Wonder Woman?

Thursday June 29, 2006, 6:06 am

It
seems like every actress in Hollywood has been rumored to be attached
to the role of Wonder Woman … which is why we’re now importing
Bollywood actresses to start rumors about.

Cinematical brings us the latest Wonder Woman casting rumor — Priyanka Chopra, co-star of the big hit Bollywood movie Krrish. Per the site:

Apparently, Miss Chopra is popularity incarnate in
Bollywood right now, and Whedon thinks her charm might play just as
well in the West. This does some pretty serious damage to browncoat
hopefuls who have been pulling for Morena Baccarin, as Baccarin was
leading the popular rumor races of late. Some thoughts suggest
Baccarin’s newly accepted regular guest role on TV’s Stargate might
have resulted in conflicting schedules, but I have trouble believing
she’d opt for a few TV guest spots over a major motion picture. If
she’s out, it’s most likely because the Powers That Be have rejected
her for some reason. Or possibly even Joss himself …

In the comments section, a reader points out that the rumor comes from the Wonder Woman page on the Internet Movie Database, which he points out is “highly unreliable when it comes to casting for upcoming movies.” So take it for what it’s worth.
