Well, I like it.

I hadn't seen the normal one. My friend linked me to the Joker one yesterday, and the puzzle was only about a third done.

Is it just me, or does anyone else get the feeling they're going to try and make The Joker a badass? I get that vibe from the Marilyn Manson-style makeup. I really hope they don't do that. The second movie is always worse. Batman > Returns. Forever > Robin. Begins > Whatever this one's going to be. Besides, the Scarecrow is my favorite villain.

The Joker was always a badass. I don't know why you'd want the TV show version.
The thing to remember is that he's a criminally insane murderer. I like the vision they seem to have with all the scarring and the looney make-up over it. It fits the whole, REALLY MESSED UP but WOOHOO ISN'T FUNNY? sort of thing that was done really well in books like The Killing Joke.
The whole idea behind the Year One and Dark Knight Returns inspiration is making things a bit more brutal and realistic.
Even the Scarecrow was given a big shot of realism.. and it worked ok, despite his shabby treatment towards the end.

I have high expectations after Begins. I just hope Batman is given more to say than a bunch of dry one-liners and cliches.. or nothing at all.

Yeah I was forced to go to the second one and fill in my email address.

Does this mean I had a part in unlocking the magic?

There's a difference between the Jack Nicholson badass Joker and. . . that. He seriously looks like he belongs in a nu-metal band.

Cool.

Very. I especially liked watching it appear as I did a find and replace in notepad, first of all the "ha"s the all the spaces. Zooooom!

Is the Joker supposed to look so depressed?

He looks too much like Baron Samedi from "Live and Let Die", I think.

This new one looks too emo. It doesn't look like a permanent smile, just a bad make up job. They should remove the lips, too, if they were going for the ugly.

I believe this guy looks more insane and dangerous than emo Joker, by far:

by **Chrono Crow** » Sun May 27, 2007 10:39 pm

My thoughts exactly, Fan. It's like they're trying to modernize the Joker. Idiots.

by **Dusk** » Sun May 27, 2007 11:08 pm

Yeah, you're right. Let's just get Jack Nicholson back.

Geez.

by **catastrophile** » Sun May 27, 2007 11:09 pm

He is supposed to be disfigured. But that picture looks terrible. And I doubt it will make it to the screen in that form.

Chelsea/Glasgow smile?

The new Joker picture guy reminds me of when I used to put make up on my cousin Nick and I used to smear the lipstick on his face.

Surprisingly, he grew up to be straight.

Out of protest.

Just for the record, I have nothing against a new actor playing the role. It's not attachment to Nicholson himself, but what his face looks like, because It looses some of the right impact. The Joker is not only deformed, he's twisted.

For sure.
But you know, he's not going to be staring at the camera with that expression for the whole film.
Have you ever seen an interview with Heath Ledger? He's a little manic.
Actually, I know a guy that went to school with him. As often happens with people you go to school with, they have very similar speech patterns - very fast almost-mumbling with little to no enunciation.
He's not going to play it as some depressed emo guy.
Christian Bale has said he's really impressed with the way he's doing it.
For what it's worth.

Christopher Nolan wrote:Batman has some of the most extraordinary characters in pop culture. We wanted the Joker to have the grandest entrance possible.

I'm fairly confident this movie is in good hands.
They were spot on with their casting for the last one... except for.. whatsername.
