Dude, different Cat Woman. That movie was NOT about Selina Kyle. Or, obviously, Batman.

I do not need the written code of a spiritual belief to act like a decent human being.

Yeah Halle Berry as Catwoman...not a good movie...and she didn't fit the role. No one comes to mind on who would be a good Catwoman...

Let me brainstorm:

1) Keira Knightley? Possibly
2) Mila Kunis? Eh...she could pull it off
3) Olivia Wilde? She is one foxy lady! ;)

I see this casting as basically the return of Katie Holmes. All she added to the first movie was some eye candy and now they have Anne Hathaway to do that for the third. If this movie turns out as well as Batman Begins it will be an accomplishment though people will complain because it won't be as good as the Dark Knight.

I'm thinking Bane is probably the secondary villain. He just doesn't seem like someone to carry the movie. He's the scarecrow or two face for this movie.

I like Anne Hathaway just fine in BRIDE WARS or LOVE AND OTHER DRUGS, but as Catwoman? That would be like sticking Claire Danes in, I don't know, a Terminator movie.

Well, depending on where they wanna go with Catwoman. She's always been bit more freewheeling than Batman. Frank Miller aside, she's not doing this out of vengeance or rage; she dresses up in costume and swings from rooftops because it's fun.

Knightfall.

Bane's whole point in the comics (utterly ignored in the movies and even the DCAU) is that he's Batman's intellectual equal as well as having 'roid-rage level strength. He figured out who Batman was, where the Batcave was located, and manipulated events to exhaust Batman and alienate him from his allies before moving in for the kill.

I can easily see him playing the Big Bad and hiring Catwoman as a pawn to seduce Batman. She's the one who wouldn't cut it as a real villain; she's amoral, not evil.

This would also give her the chance to pull a Heel Face Turn and rescue Batman --redeeming herself enough for him to let her get away just this once. . .

Oh I don't think Catwoman is the big bad either. I think she's even less of a villain than Bane is. She's probably just going to be making a few appearances to mess with Batman and do a bit of a love triangle thing. It's already rumored that there's at least one other love interest to be cast.

You guys and gals realise this is a fake? Right?
It's based on a comic cover with Hathaways face PS'ed on.
She won't look exactly like that in the movie.

I don't have a problem with casting, Nolan has always done a good job with his casts. People said Heath Ledger was wrong and look how that turned out. The same thing was said Joseph Gordon Levitt in inception as well. Hathaway has long since broken away from the Disney roles that made her famous so we'll just have to wait and see what they do with the role and how it fits in the movie.

Plus I still think Catwoman and Bane are minor baddies. I like to think that we'll get a Two-Face is behind it all cameo towards the end of the movie.
Of course I could be well off on that one.
