isn't it possible that the talents behind the film (nolan and crew) could craft an otherwise bubble-gum actor/actress into a believable role? i mean, how excited were you guys about heath ledger's films and acting ability prior to the joker? (g, was he on nicktoons?) he wasn't an unknown before that, he was shit before that!

yes, the halle berry catwoman film was atrocious. filled with shit and so much more. but the schumacher batfilms were, too. uma thurman as poison ivy, no fun. uma thurman as kill bill? at the very least, a believable improvement (though not hot)

so maybe eva mendes or jolie would turn out as a shit choice, who knows. but i dont think its a foregone conclusion that the movie / role would turn out bad, with the side bonus that, hey... at least there's t&a.
