The Dark Knight
Out of all the movies I look forward to in 2008, this is the one I anticipate the most. But that's probably because we already have a trailer.

Re: The Dark Knight
The first one surprisingly underperformed at the box office, with a great Batman choice, yet a poor girlfriend in Katie. This one should do much better as should Norton's Hulk remake, over their first films. You are looking forward to The Dark Knight over The Bourne Mimicry with DC?stockslivevan wrote:

Re: The Dark Knight
I've lot my appetite for this one. After Ledger died, I don;t know if I can seperate the two and enjoy the movie.
The speculation about the Joker haunting him after the shoot will keep on and become part of the movies legend

Chief of Staff, 007's gone round the bend. Says someone's been trying to feed him a poisoned banana. Fellow's lost his nerve. Been in the hospital too long. Better call him home.

Re: The Dark Knight
It does effect everyone's viewing of the film, but I'm one of those who seperates the art from the artist. From what I've seen in the trailers, Ledger is totally submerged in the character that I forget it's even him. If I never knew it was Ledger playing the role I wouldn't have even guessed right. I find it amazing that there's already oscar buzz and we're only two months away from actually seeing it.

"Why so serious?"
Re: The Dark Knight
That line alone makes me want to see it. From the context, you just know that Ledger's Joker is going to be utterly psychopathic and without remorse.FormerBondFan wrote:"Why so serious?"

You can barely recognize Ledger in that role.

Re: The Dark Knight
Also Ledger's Joker laugh reminds me of the Joker laugh in the original Batman animated series.
Re: The Dark Knight
Do you mean the Filmation series with Adam West and Burt Ward doing the voices of Batman and Robin, or the one from the late '80s/early '90s, with Mark Hamill as the Joker?FormerBondFan wrote:Also Ledger's Joker laugh reminds me of the Joker laugh in the original Batman animated series.

Re: The Dark Knight
Hamill's Joker was quite camp, though. From what I've seen of Ledger's performance, his take on the character looks very different.FormerBondFan wrote:The one in the '90s with Hamill as the Joker.Kristatos wrote:Do you mean the Filmation series with Adam West and Burt Ward doing the voices of Batman and Robin, or the one from the late '80s/early '90s, with Mark Hamill as the Joker?FormerBondFan wrote:Also Ledger's Joker laugh reminds me of the Joker laugh in the original Batman animated series.

Re: The Dark Knight
Maybe to really sensitive kids who never heard of Batman, because I know I wouldn't have been scared by Heath's Joker. Even at the age of six the gruesome portrayal of the Penguin from BATMAN RETURNS didn't scare me one bit.FormerBondFan wrote:Ledger's performance could give kids nightmares IMO.Kristatos wrote:From what I've seen of Ledger's performance, his take on the character looks very different.

Re: The Dark Knight
Those who are scared of Ledger's Joker are mostly those who are scared of clowns. That's just my opinion though.
