I'm glad she's on board; it will be very interesting to see how they pull this all together. I think it will be a very good movie or a steaming pile; no middle ground on this one.
Bale is not going to be back as Batman in JL, they are going to recast. What I have heard is that "If Bale is coming back and Goyer is penning, it's news to Warner Bros." The only definites that I have heard is Z. Snyder and his wife are in as producers; nothing else has been greenlit. Also, I know someone who saw an early screening of MOS and told me there is no JGL so hopefully they're not going that stupid John Blake route with a new Batman.
NO NOLAN! He did great with 2 of the 3 Batman movies, but he is not going to give fans the JL movie they want.











Not surprising. I've heard several of you maniacs approve/disapprove of this rumor, so I suspect reaction will be a mixed bag. Chalk me up to the don't really care crowd.
I'm more curious to hear Wiseguy's reaction to the rumor of WB asking Chris Nolan to taking point on Justice League and bringing Christian Bale back. I love, love, LOVE me some Chris Nolan Batman movies, but I gotta admit that I sort of hope those rumors are bunk. Nolan would do a quality JL film, but I don't think it would go in the direction I'd like to see. Oh well, back to the X-Men talk! :)
