Can't wait to see it.

If 'Batman Begins' made us forget about the films by Burton and Schumacher, 'The Dark Knight' is going to bury them to the ground.

My brother is talking about that movie every day...........
I'm sick of all my kicks.
Not only is it the new Batman movie, but it's also Heath Ledger's last movie. And what a creepy way to end the career of a brilliant actor!

I also thought that "The Dark Knight" is Heath Ledger's last movie, but it isn't. His last movie is "The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus".

And yes, I agree. He really was a brilliant actor.

I didn't know his role was recast by Johnny Depp, Colin Farrell, and Jude Law. That's very interesting news. I'm looking forward to seeing that movie as well.

Heath Deadger

Actually his work in this film looks pretty badass. I don't really enjoy modern super-hero films because they're generally complete crap, but this one looks like it might have some quality.
Can't wait either
We love you Mandy!

Yeah, I'm looking forward too! =) But you forgot to mention that TOM WAITS is also in that movie. Fucking legend. xD

Jack Nicholson = Comicbook version of the Joker
Heath Ledger = The Joker

That's the difference.

Batman isn't a super-hero character. He has no special powers or abilities whatsoever-- he's just a guy dressed as a bat who happens to be an amazing fighter and detector. In fact, most of his enemies lack special abilities, and if they do have them, they lack brain power (Bain). The penguin -- short midget who resembles a penguin, and has a criminal mind. Two Face -- good guy gone bad due to a dramatic event. The Joker -- chemically distorted into a laughing serial killer. The closest thing the Batman series ever really got to super villians were Mr. Freeze and Poison Ivy, I believe. But even at that they're nothing like Dock Ock from Spiderman or those three super bad villians from Superman II the movie. Batman has more believable characters to me. Not that they're completely believable though. I mean, who in the world goes around jumping from buildings in the middle of the night, every night?

Yes, well hopefully the producers remembered that Batman IS a comic book. If you think Spiderman and The Hulk were good renditions from comic books, I have to disagree.

This movie looks like it's going to be extemely "tricked up". Usually that is done when the storyline isn't good enough to carry the movie, which has plagued the Batman series.

Plus I have a theory. If a movie that hasn't come out is plastered all over Hot Topic, Chess King, and other mall stores that employ teenagers with black fingernail polish, usually that movie ends up sucking real bad.

[QUOTE]from philly.com
the Joker is unnervingly creepy.

Anthony Perkins as Norman Bates creepy. Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter creepy. Psychotic reptile creepy. Ledger bobs his head, bares discolored fangs and flicks his tongue to intimidate and snare his prey. Initially a muscleman for mobsters (led by Eric Roberts), the Joker by his chaos freestylings becomes the undisputed king of Gotham City's underworld.

Is it sad to see the late Ledger on screen? Surprisingly, no. While the prospect of his last complete performance gave me anticipatory melancholy, 30 seconds in I responded not to Ledger-as-Joker but to the Joker himself. Believe the buzz: This unsettling, mesmerizing performance is indeed Oscar-worthy.[/QUOTE]
