Re: Batman : The Dark Knight

Was worried for a second that that meant they fucked up the mythos and made Harvey Dent become Joker instead of Jack Napier. I think I'm just too jaded by other comic book movies.

Heath Ledger is now the creepiest Joker ever. Mark Hamill still does the best Joker voice, though

Re: Batman : The Dark Knight

He's damn near unrecognizable. The Joker finally seems "bad."

Re: Batman : The Dark Knight

I like the grittier, darker ... Dark Knight movies they are turning out.

I stopped watching Batman after the first with Michael Keaton. Batman Begins took the spot as the best Batman movie for me.

When everything started to go Neon lights (including the friggin guns), that's just too much garbage to take in.

That Jokers poster is fake I think. I read it somewhere.

Fake or not, it's still gross.

Re: Batman : The Dark Knight

Yeah, that was a fake, I just found the source image it was photoshopped from:



Still looks better than the actual one. Actor's name was Conrad Veidt, he appeared a silent film adaptaion of Victor Hugo's "The Man Who Laughs"

Re: Batman : The Dark Knight

No wonder he was unrecognizable. I couldn't figure out if he had false teeth in or what. That dude is nearly as creepy as Nosferatu.

Re: Batman : The Dark Knight

Let's try this whole thing again.
