Rumorville: Batman 3 villain's revealed!

saw this article today about Batman 3 from Yahoo! Buzz, the article is talking about who will be the villains and the celebrities who will portray them in the next install of Batman. Got really interested coz this is one aspect of the Batman franchise I really look forward to. Even from the cartoon series to the old movies, I am always fascinated who Batman's villain's came to be. I like how there is a story behind each villain's character; what made them evil, how are they connected to Gotham city and its society, how the interact with other villains and how they position themselves as Batman's enemies.

By the way, I love the Dark Knight movie. I've seen it on its 4th day of screening already feeling bad and sulking how much of I looser I am having missed it on its first day. tsk tsk. (btw, I blame my movie buddies for this- they're all gone; we used to catch movies this big on the first day of showing!) As I was saying, I loved the movie-best Batman movie ever! I was not crazy at all about Batman though; his character took a back seat and was pushed to the shadows my Joker's character. Kudos to Heath Ledger for doing an excellent job! In this movie, I liked how Joker was portrayed as Batman's equivalent. It is like one cannot exist without the other- "they complete each other" as Joker has said in the movie.

For the next film, I would really love to see Johnny Depp, I think he will shed new light to Riddler's character. Angelina Jolie as Catwoman made me meow! why not?! she would look hot in an all black, skin-tight suit. Phillip Seymour Hoffman as Penguin, hmm...could be; he is a really good character actor and I believe he will do a good job as well.

My problem with this is I've seen them all in the previous Batman movies; are there new villains who will come to life in the movie?
