Glad someone else feels this way! Deep down inside I was praying that her character was the one to die and not Aaron Eckhart.

I find Maggie Gyllenhall insufferable.

I am quite surprised with the Bane choice as villain because Nolan doesn't seem like a cgi kind of guy when it comes to actual actors but we'll see. I read a report a few months ago that the main villain was supposed to be Hug Strange and I am still hopeful that he is.

indeed! I love the Dark Knight, one of my all time favorite movies, but Maggie Gyllenhall is absolutely hideous. she always looks like to me like a flapper whose breath smells.

Hathaway is definitely hot, but I have trouble picturing her as Catwoman for some reason.

yeah, but when I heard Ledger was going to be the joker (after all his crap movies besides BBM) I was very skeptical.

Nolan does a good job of making his actors work in their parts. that Juno chick was pretty good in inception and I couldnt stand her before.

Liam as Rha's was good, Heath as Joke was great and Aaron was Two-Face was pretty awesome.

For whatever reason, she seems too LARGE to play Catwoman. I'm not sure she is, but she looks physically imposing. I think part of Catwoman's mystique is that she doesn't look like she could **** you up.

Very true. I do trust Nolan because The Dark Knight was ******* amazing.

Right. Dude did well with Batman Begins and knocked it out the park with Dark Knight.

I don't see any reason why he would all of the sudden turn his Batman franchise into teh suck.

Huge +1.

Juggernaut was one of my favorite Marvel characters. When I first saw that glimpse of him in the X-Men trailer I was like, "who's that skinny guy running through the walls?" And then I was like, "wait a minute," and hit rewind and watched with a slowly-dawning realization that they had murdered the Juggernaut. It was even worse when Vinnie Jones opened his mouth. Why couldn't they have just CGI'd him like the Hulk? He may not have looked real but at least he would have been the size of the Juggernaut.

Anyway, it will be interesting to see Nolan's take on the muscle-bound Bane.
