The question for the last two weeks in the movie industry was only one: will “The Dark Knight” pass the $600 mil barrier? That record is held by Titanic, which also holds the record for the best gross worldwide.

As you all know, the movies industry is dynamic and that debate is still hot but there is another one hotter. The new rumor is that Batman 3 is imminent and several names can take the stage in the next installment. First name involved in this rumor is Johnny Depp. He will be playing the evil “the Riddler”. A source, cited by many publications says that Johnny Depp and Philip Seymour Hoffman are the next villains for the bat guy: Johnny’s a pro. He’ll be able to take direction from director Christopher Nolan and still make the character his own. And what better Penguin is there than Philip Seymour Hoffman.”

Another name that seems to be related to this sequel is Angelina Jolie. Her name is attached to the leather dressed Catwoman. That should be interesting but only if Angelina will gain some weight.
These rumors are quite OK and hopefully we will see those names in the upcoming installments from this awesome franchise under Christopher Nolan guiding.

This was by far the most wanted movie of the year. And I’m not saying that because of Heath Ledger’s death. Batman is a loved franchise and the trailer from last year made all the fans curious for this installment. With a great director, Christopher Nolan, and talented actors like Christian Bale, Heath Ledger, Gary Oldman, Aaron Eckhart, Maggie Gyllenhaal, and the titans Morgan Freeman and Michael Caine, this movie made history. In terms of grosses, the movie broke two records which were attributed to Spiderman 3: Best Single Day and Best Debut Weekend. On Friday, The Dark Night made an astonishing $66 mil at the box office, while the entire weekend gathered for the first time around $155 mil.

If we are to judge after the IMDB rating, the movie is looking very good with a 9.7 rating from almost 47.000 votes. I’m still waiting to see this movie, but, until that happens, I wish you a enjoyable ride in seeing this movie. I can’t give ratings, but I will say Kudos for this excellent results.
