batman dark knight

[skinjim123]

is anyone looking forward to this sequel of batman begins. I am personally interested how well heath ledger (RIP) will portray the joker compared to jack nicholson of batman 1989.
here is the trailer for the new film YouTube - Batman - The Dark Knight Trailer HD

[General J Matrix]

I cant wait, loved BB

[Con-oh-ley]

When I first saw the trailer I was a bit skeptical, I wasn't a fan of the new Joker look. However in later trailers it grew on me and the personality that Heath Ledger presented through it of him rather impressed me, since, well. He's my sorta villain. Unstable and evil =).

So going to see it when it comes out.

[HASSARD2004]

yaay, a new Batman film

[skinjim123]

im still not sure i loved jack nicholsons portrayal when i was a kid and it scared me. Christopher nolans portrayals of batman havent really convinced me that much either compared to tim burtons. and of course you can never beat danny elfmans batman theme

[HASSARD2004]

There was only one Batman....Adam West

"I didn't need molded Plastic for my physic, pure.......West."

[BethGoth05]

Jack Nicholson IS The Joker. Period.

[Turtle]

yea now the Joker looks like some phyocpath not like Jack Nickleson played it just a mad man lol

[SIM89]

Looks great, and im sure Heath does a top job as the joker.

[d1j]

Yep am definitely looking forward to it. I really like the Batman movies.

[Mr A]

I enjoyed Batman Begins rather a lot so I'll be sure to go and see this one. =]

Says a lot. ¬¬


I guess I'll go...

even though I was never a batman girl.

Couldn't stand the dude. Stands around in his cape all day, glaring.

l can't wait to see this one, and the good thing they keeping the dark theme.

batman 10/10
batman returns 9/10
batman forever 3/10
batman and robin 0/10
batman begins 8/10
batman dark knight looks to be 10/10 but i still think jack nicholson is a better joker than heath ledger

[Tawton9]

How do you know Nicholson is better than Ledger? You havent seen the movie? Basing it on a trailer?

Lol Ledger looks like some emo Nickleson was a better Joker

[General J Matrix]

To be honest I really like the new image Batman. Dont get me wrong, I grew up with the first two Batman films and loved them, before it went silly with the likes of Mr Freeze/Robin and co, but this is the best image.

Bale is a great actor imo who is never recoginsed for his work at the level he should be. Some of his greats include American Psycho, Equilibrium and BB. I've not actually seen 3:10 to Yuma or The Prestige but I'm sure they're equally as good. Terminator 4 will also star Mr Bale

Coupled with the new darker Batman image, I hope they make another two or three! However, if someone like Shia LaBeouf ends up as Batman after Bale, please shoot me!

You choose top is Nickleson and bottom is Ledger

[skinjim123]

i choose nicholson and also i do believe (leaving out the joel schumacher batman films) that tim burtons films are/were better than the chris nolan films because tim seems to capture the darkness of batman and its comic world

[Maus652]

Tim Burton has a reputation for dark, more macabre films. So I agree with that statement even without seeing the other batman films other than once when some of it was on t.v. once. Not sure which.

As for the darkness of the comic world. I'm not so sure Batman was really that dark a comic. The Joker was kinda creepy, yeah, for a villain, but overall, Batman was just. Dull, imo, not really so much 'dark'.

Unless you count the fact that he wears black, a lot of it appears to be dark in New York or wherever it's set, and the Joker's in the shade sometimes.

[HASSARD2004]

As the film draws nearer, i thougt i'd bump this before someone makes a new one

I know i said that i won't be seeing this film, but after seeing the critical acclaim Batman Begins got and i'm also hearing that The Dark Knight is also critically acclaimed by reviewers so far (IGN.com gave it 5/5 ), i've thought about purchasing Batman Begins on DVD, and if i like it, i might purchase the old Batman films aswell
So basically, if i like BB, i'll probably go see this one...

In case you didn't know, The Joker is a psychopath. That's why he's locked up in a mental institute

They're all terrible, all up until Batman Begins.

Batman '89 was god awful, and not even the great Jack Nicholson could have made it 'good'. In fact, he is one of the reasons why it sucked. But I'm sure I'm the minority on this one..
