[Molossus]

Paul Molnar starred as the Joker in Patient J and recently got himself an audition for Batman Begins 2! Check him out on imdb!

[Two-Face]

Auditioned for Batman Begins 2? really? why not BOF or SHH not picking up on this.

[warren_sparta27]

i'd rather Hulme

[lujho]

Please, no. His performance was far too cartoony.

[titan101]

Please, no. His performance was far too cartoony.oh,im sorry,you must be talking about someone else...

[lujho]

oh,im sorry,you must be talking about someone else...

Maybe you saw a different Patient J than I did. The one I saw had someone trying a lame Mark Hamill impression that would look immensely silly in a serious movie.

[lujho]

point taken,but that's the ONLY bad thing about his performance.

Huh? That was all there was to his performance. I'm sorry, I just don't see Joker speaking/acting like that (or looking like that for that matter) in a proper movie. It just didn't seem like a real person.

[StorminNorman]

I agree, if Paul Molnar is Ebonics for Paul Bettany. :up:

[Mr. Socko]

MY GAWD! He tried to sound like Mark Hamill and ended up sounding like an evil Michael Jackson.

His performance was pretty good for a fanfilm, it was actually great for a fanfilm. Yeah, he was a little cartoony, but a very evil type of cartoon character. His look was matched nearly perfectly with the comic book Joker but the nose was way too long and so was the chin, they looked really fake.

I agree, Joker shouldn't look like that in a blockbuster movie. More of a fanfilm look or even for a tv show.

There's no chance Paul Molnar will get the role, he should stick with Aaron [can't spell last name]

[StorminNorman]

I dont know, with a filmography as respectable as this: http://imdb.com/name/nm1288012/ I may be tempted with Mr. Molnar.

[Mr. Socko]

Actor - filmography

Patient J (2005) .... The Joker
Intergalactic Idol (http://imdb.com/title/tt0443321/) (2003) .... Boba Fett
Aquanoids (http://imdb.com/title/tt0338726/) (2003) .... Aquanoid #1

LMAO!!!!!!:up:

Well Nolan is looking for a no-namer

[StorminNorman]

He made an excellent Aquanoid #1, I must say :up:

[Two-Face]

Every time an actor is rumoured to character they always say fanfilm actor for that character example "Clark Bartman for Bruce Wayne/Batman" :down:

[Mr. Socko]

Every time an actor is rumoured to character they always say fanfilm actor for that character example "Clark Bartman for Bruce Wayne/Batman" :down:

And Clark Bartram didn't get the job and never will. Like I say, Fanfilms and pro films are entirely different. Bartram did a decent job in Dead End but he would be terrible in a feature Batman film.

He made an excellent Aquanoid #1, I must say

LOL, he's perfect. No one will know who he is. Talk about the exact opposite of a Nicholson :up:

[Two-Face]

Same goes for Paul Molnar as the Joker.

[Mr. Socko]

Molnar is a makeup and creature designer...stick with behind the camera stuff.

I don't even know if he's worthy enough of applying the makeup on The Joker, let alone be the Joker himself.

[StorminNorman]

If Paul Molnar truly got an adition to be in BB2 (which I doubt) it should be to play meaningless cannon fodder, perhaps he could be the first victim we see of the Joker, oh the irony.....JOYGASM!

[Mr. Socko]

He could be Random Thug #4.

[Molossus]

What you guys dont understand is that an actor has range, just because of what you saw in Patinet J, DOESNT mean that that is all Paul Molnar can do. He obviously impressed Nolan's team enough to land an audition. I mean hell, Bale is dancing and seeing in Newsies, but you dont see that in Batman. Plus the direction of Patient J was ment to be a direct version of the Joker from the comics, very animated, crazy, featuring all the moments of his career.

Again I must ask this:

Auditioned for Batman Begins 2? really? why not BOF or SHH not picking up on this.

[Mr. Socko]

Give me a link to where it's even stated that Batman 2 has had auditions. I don't believe it, Nolan isn't even finish with his other film right now but he's doing auditions for Batman 2...

[StorminNorman]

hmm....one of the best young actors in Hollywood (Paul Bettany) or....Paul Molnar.

Tough choice.

[Mr. Socko]

Bettany, a good actor, or the makeup guy...

Decisions...decisions...

[Two-Face]

It's BS.

[trustyside-kick]

Bettany, a good actor, or the makeup guy...

Decisions...decisions...

Decisions? Okay...Bettany. :)

[Mr. Socko]

Decisions? Okay...Bettany. :)

I was heading more towards the makeup guy:up:

Hey we better hope Guard doesn't read this thread because he's friends with Paul Molnar

[Warhammer]

Paul Molnar?

I think not, I would like Bettany better, or even Hulme.

[Warhammer]

lol.

[explode7]

Dude that paul molnar guy looks scary as hell!!!

[Mr. Socko]

Only in that pic. The main pic of him on his myspace account looks very professional. He's shaved and wearing a suit.

[explode7]

Me no care sign this dude up for Joker immeadiately Nolan he has the perfect look for the joker IMO.

[StorminNorman]

Me no care sign this dude up for Joker immeadiately Nolan he has the perfect look for the joker IMO.

People people people - looks dont mean nearly as much as acting ability - look at Cilian Murphy. He was fantastic in beings, yet he look nothing like either Craine or Scarecrow. The same goes for Liam Neeson as Ras.

[Mr. Socko]

Me no care sign this dude up for Joker immeadiately Nolan he has the perfect look for the joker IMO.

Yeah...he looks like the Joker so he should get the role....

MY GAWD! The resemblance is uncanny!!!

[StorminNorman]

the scary thing is give them the same type of hair and I could see them actually looking like each other.

[Mr. Socko]

ok that went wrong...

I want a redo

You know what, make Cillian Murphey make a face like that and..... :D

Thanks, I saw the pic on PaulBettany.net and I thought it had a real cool look to it.

[Mr. Socko]

You like my new avay?

[warren_sparta27]

spongebob pirates = t3h awsome

[Molossus]

Paul has about as much credits as Brandon Routh and look who he is playing... Paul, like Chris Reeve is more involved with theater. Patient J is one hell of a performance and Paul's resemblance to the Joker is almost uncanny, plus he fits the age and height, being 31 and 6'4. Plus, he is related to the actor who played in "The Man Who Laughs" oddly enough.

Also, I dont think Nolan is just going to pick an actor and go with him, he is going to meet and audition many people untilk he finds who's right.

[Molossus]

http://www.planetmolnar.net/actor/actor.html

thats his site, there are some funny pictures there, the one at the bottum in the red shirt, looks like Cillain Murphy funny enough.

[Boom]

I have a great idea.

Don't cast this guy.

[StorminNorman]

Wow....just wow....:up:

Wow, is he really related to Conrad Viedt, or are you just pulling Socko's tail?

Also looks a little like Tom Welling to me. This guy really ain't that bad but his chances are slim going against Bettany. While Hulme, IMO, really isn't a butt load of competition.

I have a great idea.

Don't cast this guy.

LMAO!!!

Wow....just wow.... :up:

I knew you'd like it :up:

The Goddamn StorminNorman is wondering why Socko is refering to himself in the thrid person now.:down :)

[Mr. Socko]

Paul Molnar is good...but I'd much rather this guy....

So...who else does this scare?

[Batty for Bats!]

[StorminNorman]

I want to be Maxie Zeus, my qualifications are that I have no qualifications, Nolan cast me please.

[Mr. Socko]

You're a complete unknown...I'm sure you'll get the job!

[DGrayson]

How do you get an audittion for the bat-man movies? just curious.

[Mr. Socko]

Go to the audition building when they're doing it and apply. It's probably going to be in Hollywood California. They usually post things like that on SHH(when auditions are held)

[The Guard]

You have to admit, Molnar pulled off some crappy lines pretty well. I mean, PATIENT J had just abysmal writing compared to mose fanfilms.

But the man was clearly not imitating Mark Hamill, or he would have done a better "Mark Hamill". That was his own Joker interpretation, with bits and pieces of several Joker incarnations, none of which are identifiably Hamill's. Newsflash: The Joker was depicted as a laughing maniac YEARS before Hamill got ahold of the character.

And someone want to point out the "cartoon" in his performance to me and why that moment can't be applied to a more realistic version of The Joker, who is frequently depicted as being over the top and playful?

If Molossus says Molnar got an audition, I'm inclined to believe he did/will (as will many), though I wouldn't look for him to land the role in the Batman sequel.

I thought the guy did a fantastic job in Patient J, however I am one who wants a more experienced actor to play the Joker - one like Paul Bettany.

[Molossus]

to THEGUARD

I thought the writing was fantastic, Dave Hammond and Aaron and Schoenke really did an amazing job.

I wonder who the Dave guy is?? And what else he has written??

[Seen]

The level of irony and self-effacing in this thread is too much to bare. :)

[Katsuro]

Paul Molnar is good...but I'd much rather this guy....

So...who else does this scare?

It sure as hell scares me. the tripod.com logo scares the bujeezus out of me, but that's only because a tripod logo killed my mother, and raped my father.

[Babs Gordon]

why are you side-stepping the question about the audition? if you want to prove anything to fan-folks then you have to substantiate your claims.

the man could be a useless talent. not all actors have the range bale does and not all actors are cut out for roles like that. brandon routh is a rare exception i think... this sort of thing does not happen all the time with a great deal of success. it's a risky venture to cast an unknown of molnar's experience.

[Shoemeister]

In terms of Patient J, Paul Molnar was good. A nice tribute to the character and a well done short film.

As for the sequel... NO ONE STARING IN THAT *****PILE AQUANOIDS WILL EVER COME CLOSE TO BEING IN IT! EVER! I SAW IT! BELIEVE ME! AHHHHH!! Plus, he doesn't have the range. kthnxbai.

[HughJackFan420]

hey why don't we go with a more credible actor like...oh i don't know...HUGO WEAVER???

[Babs Gordon]

that's weaving, hughjackfan ;)

weaver is a hot dog company.

[The Guard]

It's not like they'd just hand him the role, people. An audition is an audition.

[kytrigger]

It's not like they'd just hand him the role, people. An audition is an audition.

Exactly, while right now I am a fan of Bettany, I would like more then 3 people to audition for the role of Joker. There might be someone out there that is an unknown that could nail the part.
