Michael Caine Says Johnny Depp, Philip Seymour Hoffman in next Batman
As vehemently as I was opposed to the Cher playing Catwoman rumors, I am flipping head-over-heels at the idea of Johnny Depp and Philip Seymour Hoffman becoming bad guys for the next Batman film from director Christopher Nolan.
Just what evil anti-heroes will the two be playing? According to Michael Caine who spoke to MTV News, Depp will portray The Riddler, while Hoffman waddles around as The Penguin.
Are you as thrilled about this news as I am? Two of the very best actors in the business right now putting their own spin on a couple of legendary bad guys from the Batman universe. Sounds awesome.
62-Year-Old Cher to Play Catwoman in the Next Batman?
Sometimes I love it when you guys send in news stories that you think might be of interest to us here at Pop Critics.
But on occasions such as this one, I’m wishing my spam filter had caught The Capn’s email. Or that this entire story was a bad dream.
According to a United Kingdom website named The Telegraph, 62-year-old Cher has been hand-picked by Christopher Nolan to play Catwoman opposite Christian Bale in the next Batman film.

Almost since the day Christian Bale was cast in Terminator Salvation we’ve been telling you this was a movie to keep your eyes on.

The Dark Knight – A second viewing, spoilerific review
I was lucky enough to go see The Dark Knight a second time this weekend, something that I rarely have a desire to do with most films.
In fact, I can name the few movies that I saw in theaters multiple times within a week or two of the opening: All three Lord of the Rings and Jurassic Park
Movie Review: The Dark Knight (2008) by Jason
With the help of Lieutenant Jim Gordon and District Attorney Harvey Dent, Batman sets out to destroy organized crime in Gotham for good. The triumvirate proves to be effective, but they soon find themselves prey to a rising criminal mastermind known as the Joker, who thrusts Gotham into anarchy and forces the Dark Knight ever closer to crossing the fine line between hero and vigilante.
Movie review: The Dark Knight (2008) by Mike
To butcher a famous line by Jack Nicholson, the original Joker from Batman:
“I have given a name to my Oscar….and it is Batman.”
More specifically, The Dark Knight.
I know there are movies yet to come this year that will be brilliant and amazing. Maybe the Curious Case of Benjamin Button will be a movie that warrants Academy attention.
But if there was ever going to be a time that an action-packed, superhero adventure was to win that coveted Best Picture Oscar…The Dark Knight is it. Hands down. And I wont forget to mention a Best Supporting Actor nod as well.

Movie/DVD Review: “Batman: Gotham Knight” (2008)
I’d been wanting to see Batman: Gotham Knight ever since I first heard about it. The screenshots we saw early on, and then the five-minute scene we posted totally got the blood flowing.
There was another reason to check it out. Word was that it bridged the gap between Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, due in theaters this Friday.
That’s all a thing of the past now. I’ve seen it and loved it.
