Members alwaysAMC Posted August 9, 2006 Members Share Posted August 9, 2006 Wow I can't wait... ...but how can you go from Jim Carrey to Heather Ledger? I just can't see it, but I'm open-minded and Heath is talented - so I have faith it'll all work out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted August 10, 2006 Author Administrator Share Posted August 10, 2006 I think you mean Jack Nicholson. LOL Carrey was The Riddler. I have faith in Nolan's decision to hire Heath. It should be interesting how Nolan/Ledger's version of The Joker compares to Burton/Nicholson's 1989 version.

Members Hartless Posted August 11, 2006 Members Share Posted August 11, 2006 I love Nicholson's Joker, I thought he was great, but I think Heath will give him a darker side and capture the more cynical side of him. This movie is going to be awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted August 11, 2006 Author Administrator Share Posted August 11, 2006 I agree. Nolan/Ledger's Joker will be more dark/cynical instead of campy like Romero's and Nicholson's Joker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PhoenixRising05 Posted August 12, 2006 Members Share Posted August 12, 2006 OMG I can't wait for this movie. I think Ledger is an interesting decision but I agree he will capture the dark, cynical side of Joker. Everything I have heard so far about this movie, which is mostly confirmed rumors, sounds great.

Members Hartless Posted August 18, 2006 Members Share Posted August 18, 2006 Anyone else heard the rumors that Ryan Phillipe will play Harvey Dent/Two Face? Though in the Dark Knight, he will only be Harvey Dent, not Two face. I think he would do a good job, I think Phillipe is more talented than he gets credit for.

Administrator Toups Posted August 18, 2006 Author Administrator Share Posted August 18, 2006 Yeah, I heard the rumour too. There's also rumours about Philip Seymour Hoffman as The Penguin (the more traditional Penguin unlike Tim Burton's creator from Batman Returns).

Members alwaysAMC Posted August 21, 2006 Members Share Posted August 21, 2006 Haha - yeah that's my bad. I always get Riddler and Joker mixed up - I am more comfortable with Heath playing JOKER than RIDDLER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted October 20, 2006 Members Share Posted October 20, 2006 i can see Phillippe as Harvy/Two face. i hope that rumor comes to be true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PhoenixRising05 Posted October 20, 2006 Members Share Posted October 20, 2006 Phillipe would be good for Harvey. Hoffman would rock as the Penguin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricaKane70 Posted October 20, 2006 Members Share Posted October 20, 2006 I don't think I'm going to like Heath as the joker, they better not make the joker too serious, his character being wacky/crazy is what made him fun to watch. I'll give it a chance though and still go see the movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted October 20, 2006 Members Share Posted October 20, 2006 Great rumors. I was hesitant with Batman Begins but it turned out to be a great movie. I can't wait for The Dark Knight and I love the casting rumors. All are good and quite interesting choices, IMO. Not too sold on Ledger yet, but he could impress us as the Joker.

Members Drew Posted October 20, 2006 Members Share Posted October 20, 2006 it will be interesting to see the Penguin done right, and not the campy waddling baffoon Danny DeVito and Burgess Meredeth portrayed. Since reading the comics more, I've come to love the sparce appearances of the "legit" nightclub owning/arms smuggling/mob bossing Penguin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Lskreet Posted October 20, 2006 Members Share Posted October 20, 2006 Glad they are finally getting this movie started. Michael Cain was on Regis and Kelly this morning and said they start shooting in March. I can't wait! I don't know how I feel about Heath Ledger playing The Joker. Jack Nicholson did such an excellent job. I'll wait and see because I was unsure about Chrisitan Bale as Bruce Wayne, but he was good and I was impressed with the movie. The franchise is back.
