Dark Knight Rises Villains

Plus there are those comic fans that can't wrap their minds around the fact that Batman will beat Superman in that final fight.

I'd be surprised if there's anyone that considers themselves a comic fan that would struggle with that. People with only a surface knowledge of the chars might have that problem

There are those that think Superman should have turned Batman into paste in that fight. Granted Superman has that power, but he's not a killer. Batman knows that.

Plus the nuclear winter blotting out the sunlight substantially reduced Superman's power levels. He was still strong, but those missiles that Batman had rigged gave him a far harder time then they should have.

Plus Bruce had the exo armor, and of course he had Green Arrow ready with a kryptonite arrow.

Prep time and knowing your foe are beautiful things.

Batman truly is the Sun Tzu of superheroes.

I'll stick with a line from the Superman books, that Clark pretty much plays along with Bruce, letting him -think- that among other things, he can sneak around Clark.

Exactly my point. Batman being able to beat pretty much anyone in the DCU is common knowledge among comic folks. Hell, I didn't even read DC growing up and *I* knew that about Bats.

I think that's the problem right there.

In a Batman VS Superman fight, if Superman truely went evil, Batman would be dead before he even knew Superman WAS evil.

Now if Superman actually gave Batman time to prep for the fight, and didn't fight at his full ability (ie...here let me fight at the same speed as Flash) well then of course, Batman would stand a chance!

Anne Hathaway is a much better choice than the one in that fan cast; Kiera Knightly doesn't have the lung capacity to fill out a Catwoman suit properly.

I think she'd be great for that role. May I ask where these reports are coming from ? I'd like to check those out myself..

She makes fashion models look full bodied. I loved her commentary track from the first PotC movie where she thought the makeup crew should have gotten an award for airbrushing the impression of cleavage on her.

Actually I'm glad she hasn't gone the enhancement route to look like every other blond, skinny but top heavy actress.

I wouldn't kick her out of my dreams.

That wouldn't be bad thinking about it. Eva Green is French but she did appear (through sheer force of screen presence) to be a believable eastern princess in 'Kingdom of Heaven'.

The thing is as an actress in a big budget movie it would be simple enough for Kiera to temporarily "enhance" herself for the role and via Hollywood magic I'm sure it could be made to look quite nice. Of course I suppose it would be a little weird to see her like that in a movie because everyone knows that she has a notoriously small "lung capacity" IRL. I suppose if she was a no-name actress no one's really seen before she could get away with it easier. But then again if she were a no-name then why would she have gotten the role in the first place?

If you think about it even Hathaway is not overly abundant in the lung capacity area.
I'm quite sure they'll manage to make her look nice regardless.

IGN is where I saw it, I'm sure they link to whatever source they have.

Problem is that Superman isn't always known for using his full power because he knows what he's capable of, and hates using deadly force. If he really went evil he could incinerate any threat to him from orbit via his heat vision. Death from above, literally.

About the only times I could say Superman fought at his full capacity was in Superman 2 when he returned to Metropolis and asked General Zod to step outside. OR when Superman finally got ticked off with Darkseid at the end of Justice League and gave him the Falcon Punch, Superman style. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LoejLjTx8hQ

Great example of Superman using a micro-fraction of his might would at the end of Superman 2 when he returned to the diner to teach that trucker a lesson in humility.

Although how the people in the diner didn't do the math at that point and figure out who that quiet unassuming man was.....

Sienna Miller's Baroness costumes in the GI Joe movie were padded. Director's orders, if memory serves.

This kind of thing actually happens pretty often anyway. Just like shorter actors often wear lifts to give them an extra few inches of height on screen many actresses wear various things to give them an extra cup size or two. Directors have been "groping" over this kind of thing forever - I'm sure everyone remembers how Lucas prevented Carrie Fisher from wearing a bra on screen in the first Star Wars movie by famously declaring that "there are no bras in space".

I believe the line was "There is no jiggling in the Empire."

That was probably the "compromise" they came up with. We just saw Carrie Fisher's Wishful Drinking HBO special last month and in it she specifically mentioned wearing a bra with the white dress at first and having Lucas tell her to "lose" the bra before filming. That must have been a fun day on the set.

Imagine the fun when making the ROTJ scenes with her as Jabba's prisoner.

Wasn't there some sort of game about who got to tape or untape her or something?

fix'd, for how I see it in my head.
