shrader Posted August 1, 2006 Posted August 1, 2006 I'm looking forward to seeing the true comic book version of the joker. Jack was awesome on the role, but that wasn't what the Joker is supposed to be like. Less comedy and more insane, pointless killings will make me happy. I have no idea if Ledger can pull off this role though.

ans4e64 Posted August 1, 2006 Posted August 1, 2006 good because the one that came out last year sucked

Mikie2times Posted August 1, 2006 Posted August 1, 2006 I'm pretty excited about this flick, though I have to say I'm not sure how I feel about Heath Ledger in the role of the Joker. I was in the camp that wanted either Adrien Brody or Crispen Glover, but since the first film was cast so well I'm willing to give this a chance. Hopefully it will rock even more than the first one. linky 732755[/snapback] Count me in. I thought the most recent Batman was excellent, and I was really looking forward to the next one.

R. Rich Posted August 1, 2006 Posted August 1, 2006 What, are you one of those people looking for nipples on the bat suit? 733179[/snapback] Ugh! No more Batman and Robin references! That's easily one of the worst films I've ever seen.
SilverNRed Posted August 1, 2006 Posted August 1, 2006 Can Heath Ledger make people forget about Jack's version of the Joker? Nolan better hope so. Otherwise this movie's dead before it begins. 733052[/snapback] All reports indicate they're going to go in a completely new direction with the Joker and make him the creepy, homicidal maniac he is in the comics. I completely trust the guys making this since it's the same team that did Batman Begins, a better Batman movie than I thought anyone could ever make. And if you thought Batman Begins sucked, then your opinion doesn't count.

But every time I watch I'm also reminded that Michael Keaton was horribly miscast...
ajzepp Posted August 1, 2006 Author Posted August 1, 2006 Jack? Jack is dead, my friend. You can call me... Joker. And as you can see, I'm a lot happier! 733059[/snapback] Loved that scene....I also loved, "where does he get all those wonderful toys..."

My vote goes to C. Bale, though....I really enjoyed the most recent incarnation.

He wasn't playing the Riddler, he was playing the Joker. Hell, even Tommy Lee Jones was playing the Joker. Batman Forever (man that title sounds horrible now) had all the villians written so that they were Jack Nicholson's Joker. Completely horrible. Batman has the best villians of any superhero because they're all distinct. Batman Returns wasn't even that good. Batman doesn't do one heroic thing the entire movie. The whole "Penguin was raised by penguins in the sewer" thing?? Good Lord!
Acantha Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 I'm sure the movie will be good, but it will never live up to the hype. I just hope it doesn't TRY to live up to the hype.
