The man who laughs: The Joker thread

[DangerousInc.]

Boy this thread has really gone off topic. Anway I think this manip http://www.darkhorizons.com/news07/070517o.php looks more like Nicholson as Joker on Ledger.

I don't like Batman 89' outfit on him.

[Mr. Socko]

WTF am I missing something, I don't see the '89 outfit on him...

All I see is a small grainy headshot with a terrible resolution

[Mr. Wooden Alligator]

As far as a cut smile goes, I was thinking something like what Captain Vidal got in Pan's Labyrinth when Mercedes slashed him with her knife...and yeah, I just saw the movie. Behind the times, I know. :whatever:

Hi,

If I remember correctly, in the comics, the Joker does not have a real name. His true identity is a mystery. It was Tim Burton, with Batman 1989, that came up with the identity of Jack Napier, and one episode of Batman: The Animated Series also named the Joker as "Jack Napier".

Do you think Nolan is going to continue this thread? Since Nolan wants a realistic Batman, it would make sense to give the Joker a real name. The guy wasn't born as "the joker" or named "the joker" by his mother. haha.

If Nolan does continue this, it's strange how the movie versions of Batman continues to insist on calling the Joker Jack Napier when I don't believe the comics have ever done this.

[Johnichi Chiba]

I don't think Joker will even have a backstory in this movie.

Greg3 things i want to you to do for me.
1.watch B89 and BB again. watch it 3 times if it helps.
2. think about both movies for at least 2 hours.
3.than come here again and read what you wrotte.

if you will have luck you will notice that BB is a restart. you will notcie that BB is not connected to B89.

thank you.

[Steelsheen]

in one of the spoiler threads its been mentioned that Joker will already be The Joker, there wouldnt be a true origin tale for him, but more of a tale between how he and Batman became the worst of enemies as they are now in current lore.

[IamtheBatman]

God, I hope Nolan doesn't use Jack Napier this is ain't Batman 89'. Please, Nolan no Napier or backstory.

The reason TAS called the Joker Jack Napier was because when it first started up WB wanted it to have as many connections to the movies as possible, that's why catwoman was blonde and Penguin was drawn with the mutated hands. Though, now they've shown Joker's name to be Jack in the comics.....still though I'd say the chance of Nolan using that name for the Joker is probably lower then 10%

[dark_b]

there is a bigger chance of having schumacker as a cameo in TDK than jack napier.

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

You know what..perhaps we should see some detective work and have Batman looking at his file..even if he doesn't show up as jack..would be nice for batsy to know whom he was.

You can't give him a "problem to solve" and then immediately give him the "answer" before he's had a chance. I realize you were just trying to be a dick but come on, have it make sense.

Anyway, there's also no connection between B89 and TAS and they apparently did it there. The question is: If Nolan feels obligated to give Joker a name will he opt for one that's been commonly used?

[regwec]

I actually liked Jack Napier as a character much more than Jack Nicholson's portrayal of The Joker. I especially liked his outfit, which I think would be perfect for a less flamboyant Joker.

[IamtheBatman]

How did Burton come up with Napier.

What was the name of the real life killer Zodiac? Of course he had one but no one know what it is.

See, Joker not having a real name in the movie can be realistic.

[bunk]

Wait, he had a first name in Killing Joke right?

[Bond]

Wait, he had a first name in Killing Joke right?
It was Joe Kerr, but later in the story The Joker admitted that that was not a fully accurate backstory, because he likes to have "multiple choice" or something like that.

That would be a great line to have in TDK. I'll try to see if I can find it..

EDIT: I found it.

"I mean, what is it with you? What made you what you are? Girlfriend killed by the mob, maybe? Brother carved up by some mugger? Something like that, I bet. Something like that...

Something like that happened to me, you know. I... I'm not exactly sure what it was. Sometimes I remember it one way, sometimes another. If I'm going to have a past, I prefer it to be multiple choice! HA HA HA!

But my point is... my point is, I went crazy. When I saw what a black, awful joke the world was, I went crazy as a coot! I admit it!

Why can't you?"

I could of easily trimmed that down to only the 2nd paragraph, but I couldn't resist. ;)

How did Burton come up with Napier.

It's a play on jack-a-napes.

[Mr. Socko]

Lol, I was thinking the same thing. I just saw Pans a few hours ago. But I still don't want Joker having a cut smile.

Yeah I think he realises that Einstein. His question was that because the only time Joker has had a name beside Red Hood or Joker it was Jack Napier in B89 & in a episode of BTAS so it was a fair question to ask that if TDK uses a real name for Joker would it be Jack Napier seems that is the name that has now been established as Jokers real name even though it didnt happen in the comics. I understood it, sad you didnt!:whatever:

[IamtheBatman]

It's a play on jack-a-napes.

I mean the the whole character. Wondering, if it came to Burton off his head.

[Mr. Socko]

I'd say it's become quite canon that his first name is indeed, Jack. The last name I'm not sure about. In '89, it's Jack Napier, in TAS It's Jack, and in the Hush series when they show Joker's backstory he is refereed to as Jack a few times as well, but they never say a last name.


Anyway, he won't have a backstory in this film.

[Keyser Sushi]

Lol, I was thinking the same thing. I just saw Pans a few hours ago. But I still don't want Joker having a cut smile.

Well, there's still a chance that he won't. Until we actually see him, nothing is 100% certain.

[TripXyDE]

there were indeed MANY comicbook instances when Joker's name was revealed as Joseph Kerr (Joe Kerr)
i prefer THAT over Jack Napier

as much as i loved B89... i considered Burton's alterations as sacrilege...
Jack Napier????? as cool as Burton maybe as a film icon, he has NO RIGHT to alter a very important character such as The Joker & inject it with his own shallow interpretation of what his & batman's origins

"Jack Napier" is a product of some director's arrogance & disrespect to the source material

[StorminNorman]

I would rather Jack Nicholson himself be in the movie

[IamtheBatman]

Forget, Jack that old man.

[Bond]

Forget, Jack that old man.
HOW DARE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Keyser Sushi]

You...

You do realize that Tim Burton didn't WRITE Batman '89, right?

Do the names Sam Hamm and Warren Skaaren mean anything to you?

[Batman FREAK]

Also...

Is this thread really happening?

[Seen]

I have an idea:

What if, inspired by the "I believe in Harvey Dent" campaign, WB releases the first official Joker pic in the same vein, but instead of a poster campaign, it's a mug shot? I know AICN's fake pic of The Joker had a similiar theme, but what about something like that? I'm thinking visually akin to the Sirius Black poster in Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban. Perhaps with some Joker-esque graffiti or something.

Anyway, just an idea.

Scooper 'cired' wrote in with an interesting bit:
Hey, I work in a comic book store in Southern California, and Friday we found these hidden Joker cards all around the store. It looks like a guerilla marking campaign from Warner Brothers. The cards seemed to have these words rubber stamped onto them and they all say I BELIEVE IN HARVEY DENT TOO! HAHAHAHAHAH! on them. I think they're pretty awesome.

Anyone entered their e-mail and the code?

I personally wouldn't, as who knows - it could be some kinda scam! - but if anyone else did, I'd be interested to know what happened.

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

In all honesty..i wouldn't try..sounds like a good way to launch a virus.

I don't wanna try :D

At least until I don't know if it's official...

[ghost_x]

I haven't received the email!

[fabman]

So, nothing happens?

[ghost_x]

you get a screen saying 'you have 5 minutes to play the game' it's actually really cool, defiantly joker vibe. It's got me pumped.

where did you find it?

It would be cool if you received a Joker picture... :D

I just tried www.iebelieveinharveydenttooo.com after I read the news on the home... but I don't think it's official! It's registered by Domains by Proxy, Inc., don't think it's by WB.

no clue. i recieved mine like two minutes after i send the email. :huh:

But yeah, i also suspect a fan doing this.
But maybe, maaaayyybe it's really from WB and the fact that they didn't register it under their name is supposed to add to the Joker flair?? A far stretch, i know. :csad:

Don't you guys think it's way too early for WB to do something like this? This is the kind of stuff you see a few months before a movie's release. It just doesn't seem like they would start this kind of promotion more than a year before the movie is released. I don't know, but it smells like a scam to me. A very quickly thought up and well executed scam, though. But I could be wrong. And I kind of hope I am, because I love this idea.

I hope SHH can get confirmation on this thing.

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

I still think its fake..

Do not be taken in by this... until its announced..stay away from it.

[ghost_x]

When the Spiderman 3 website was first put up they had a first person view from a camera lens tracking black spiderman in the rain. I don't think it's too early for anything.

I agree. But if Warner Bros ARE starting an underground marketing campaign this early, then "The Dark Knight" could end up being looked back on as one of the best-hyped films ever, depending on where the marketing goes from here.

I don't know. Something about this tells me it's not fake. This would go well with what Ledger said about the Joker. "A total anarchist" and all that.


The new pixel I got is inbetween the E and Y of Harvey at the top of the banner at the top of the letters. And the pixel keeps eminating gray, square ripples.

:woot: :woot:

[TheBatman072]

It's a tiny little square inside the picture of Harvey with the black around his eyes and the red smile. Like if somebody erased

And now I think there's a few more around the picture.

You think that over time the pixels will get more and more until the Dent picture is gone and THIS is how they'll reveal Joker?

[tasking]

I'll de-lurk myself for a moment.

I couldn't get my email to come either.. I even tried again, all I got was a message saying something like "Trying to cheat a cheater... You make me smile."

Meh.

[TheBatman072]

I didn't get it in my email, but I got something that said "Bulkmail" or something like that.


And the reason I think it's not fake, is becuase I don't think some computer nerd would bother with the cards in the comic shop. He would just throw the site out.

That would be ****ing awesome. It did say something about peeling away the skin. Maybe they're going to peel away Dent's face.

They may even peel dents face away to reveal two face, I know he's probably not going to be in this movie. But how good would it be if the Joker is like revealing the secret and ruining Dent's campaign.

[Keyser Soze]

The longer you stay on the site, the more pixels appear. I didn't have the bottle to stay for long, in case it's something virus-like, but I'm just throwing that out there...

[McGarnagle]

I think what's happening is, every time someone enters in a set of coordinates, another pixel from the picture is either removed or defaced, possibly meaning there's either another picture behind the defaced Dent poster that we're meant to reveal, or one that's being created with each new pixel.

Here's what it looked like when I did it, with the strange pixels circled. The pixel with the little grey box around it is the one that appeared when I entered my coordinates:

I think I'm gonna change my vote here. I'm leaning more towards real now. We just got the Harvey Dent page a few days ago. Now I'm no web design expert, but I just don't see how some nerd fan could come up with the idea, buy the domain name, design an entire flash site, distribute the playing cards(which, according to the report, looked like the words had been rubber stamped on, not actually written. hmm..), etc. all in the past few days since the Harvey Dent page showed up online.

So yeah, I'm thinking it's real.

Still not putting my email adress in there yet though.

[TheBatman072]

Yep. There's definately more pixels. And the gray square ripples I guess tells you which was yours.

"...peel the skin off his face one piece at a time..." could be the pixel thing.

[xx The Joker xx]

Wouldn't it be cool if it revealed the Joker after all the pixels were in place. Like some sick and twisted Joker campaign poster. Didn't WB say they would reveal Heath as The Joker in the 'next few weeks', a few weeks back?

[Agentsands77]

Well, this sounds legit to me. If it's not, it's a cool idea that WB should have come up with on their own.

[batdoyle]

so, after the splat happens, and it points towards the pixel in between the 'e' and the 'y' on 'harvey', its starts sorta flashing. ive tried clicjking it etc but it does nothing. does it do anything for anyone else?

[TheBatman072]

This is funny. Maybe WB purposely made this look "unofficial" so it would take people longer to sign up and thus making it longer for Joker to be revealed.

All it does is flash.

Well, this sounds legit to me. If it's not, it's a cool idea that WB should have come up with on their own.

It's definitely a good idea. Whether it is the real deal or a fanboy hoax, whoever made it deserves kudos for going to the trouble, and instigating such hype and anticipation. So long as it's not a virus, that is...

[fabman]

Only time will tell. I'd love it this was an idea by WB, but I dunno, I seriously doubt it. Just like the cards, could be just some fans sending a pic of cards they made to SHH!

[batdoyle]

thought so.......

just dont understand (at the minute), why a big splat would appear, a grey box, then it would cause a small splat to appear there and flash............odd....and then nothing.......odder

[The Joker]

I love it.

I love the whole idea of the Joker somehow screwing with Harvey Dent's campaign. I want Joker to be causing as much trouble as possible.

[fabman]

Calm down. We don't even know if it's legit. I'd say fan-made at the moments. Same with cards!

[DangerousInc.]

Wow! Several more pixels have appeared already. Real or fake, we're gonna find out what's under there pretty damn quick!

[TheScarecrow]

It's not real.

WB hasn't registered it's name.

It's not part of Warner Bros. site.

It doesn't have the WB or DC logo's on it (or any of the other terms and conditions they'd probably have to put on there if you were to put your email address in).

Stop putting your emails in there!!!

I leave for work in half an hour. I'm away for four hours. I wonder how many pixels will have changed by the time I get back?

In all honesty though, I don't think anyone would have time to design something this elaborate only a few days after the original Harvey Dent page appeared online. I think it's real, but I could be very wrong.

[batdoyle]

and also, the page was registered days BEFORE the official harvey dent page went online

[ghost_x]

Heres a good question, who would sacrifice getting a virus, for an amazing exclusive picture of Ledger as the Joker?

[uchiha_itachi]

this is pretty cool, fake or not.. im loving thehype behind the film :D

"You can contact viruses from just looking at web pages." - Another rumor that is spreading around. You cannot contract a virus just by looking at a web page however can contact a virus if you were to download a file from that web page.

"You can contact a virus by reading your e-mail." - Not fully true, by just opening an e-mail message to read its contents you can not contract a virus, unless that e-mail message contains an attachment and you were to save that attachment to your hard drive or another storage media.


Those are some pertinent virus myths, I thought. :cwink:

[ghost_x]

Both those are true. I wasn't worried about viruses, I was worried about giving my email to a scam site. I don't think thats the case though

[ghost_x]

[Agentsands77]

If this is a scam, or some fanboy joke, it's a darn good one, and they did it fast.

[ghost_x]

I think they did it before! apparntly the domain was registered before the Dent Campaign site was released. It's obviously real...or these hackers are from the future?

[uchiha_itachi]

the plot thickens^

[Spidro Man]

There are more and more pixels everytime I check that page...i wonder if we're going to see anything special...

nothing is 100%.
it looks like everything from joker is fake.

[uchiha_itachi]

thats the theory

[Noir]

I think I've finally got the plot together.

this movie is like "The Killing Joke" but instead of Gordon being Kidnapped and the Joker trying to drive him insane he is doing this to Dent.

The facts seem to point to it:
"I Believe in Harvey Dent too." Could The Joker believe that Harvey is going insane after one bad day?

Heath Ledger said the Joker was going to have a clockwork Orange feel to him, in the movie "A Clockwork Orange" the protagonist Alex rapes, pillages, and plunders. Could Joker being this stuff to Harvey Dent or his wife?

[Mr. Thing]

We won't get whatever's under there until everyone who gets an email puts their coordinates in.

[Juggernaut33]

If all this is a joke, it could be the work of only one person...

LEX LTUHOR!

[ghost_x]

Can someone get a printscreen of the site with all these pixels gone and post it?

[neobido9999]

I think I've finally got the plot together.

What if this movie is like "The Killing Joke" but instead of Gordon being Kidnapped and the Joker trying to drive him crazy he is trying to drive Dent crazy.

The facts seem to point to it:
"I Believe in Harvey Dent too." Could he believe that Harvey is going to be insane after one bad day?

Heath Ledger said the Joker was going to have a clockwork Orange feel to him, in the movie a Clockwork Alex rapes, pillages, and plunders. Could he being this stuff to Harvey Dent, maybe even his wife?

I completely agree. Dent is this high profile outside comeing to gotham to stop crime, so the joker makes an example of him

[Hartter]

You can't cheat a cheater. You make me smile.

Has anyone replied to the Email Address? You get into a creepy convo with the Joker its cool!

[Juggernaut33]

And that would explain why he would be the one that would burn Dent's face during the process.

Nolan uses RFK as a codename for the film and the joker says something about a kiss ... just a thought

[ghost_x]

You sure Riddler's not the villain?

[Klidokrator]

That was just what i was thinking

[SlyGuyTtjn]

Not jim carrey... Please.. I like him, I thought he was "ok" but I hate Batman, until the last film.. I love darker movies. (ie. Spider-man 3)

[Noir]

You sure Riddler's not the villain?
I wish he was :csad:

[ghost_x]

But Jim Carreys not the Riddler? nor was Tommy Lee Jones Two Face?

[SlyGuyTtjn]

I was soo little the last time I saw (whichever Batman) had Two-Face.. I remember he like fell in some green stuff and got burned, and then came out, and he kept flipping a coin?.. idk.. But then him and the Riddler went to Bruce's mansion, and f***ed it up.. I think.. Right?

[uchiha_itachi]

you didnt really see how two-face got made. part from some fat guy throwing acid, harvey blocking half his face with paper and batman jumping through a window.

[odiin]

You're confusing Two-face with Joker there. In the film we see on TV that Maroni threw acid at Harvey's face and Batman tried to jump in and stop it but as too late.

[dark_b]

trolls are getting smarter everyday.
coul befake.

lets hope for the joker pic.

[superkong 500]

I wouldn't hold my breath on it. But if something does appear then great. A joker pic I don't know...

Imagine if it was a ledger mannip.

[ghost_x]

Did they ever explain why Batman just leapt through the window? How did he know they were going to throw acid?

[fabman]

Well, at least then we know what's behind Dent!

[ghost_x]

Surely something is revealed by now? Can noone see anything yet?

[SlyGuyTtjn]

Yeah my bad.. as I said it was long ago.. But this new marketing campaign (or it's fake..) is awesome.. I wanna know what's behind it.

[odiin]

Did they ever explain why Batman just leapt through the window? How did he know they were going to throw acid?

How DARE you bring logic and reasoning into a discussion about a Schumacer Batman film! You deserve to be taken out back and shot!:woot:

I hope it isn't a bunch of pixels.
Imagine a picture of Eckart as Two-Face.

maybe, i just hope when i get back from work theres actually some sort of picture at least starting to form

[ghost_x]

I hope it isn't a bunch of pixels.
Imagine a picture of Eckart as Two-Face.

I said that. Two things would make me happy if they were revealed, one would be if the pixels reveal the same picture of Dent but as Two Face. The other would be if it revealed a picture of the Joker in the same suit as Dent but with the American Flag all ****ed up behind him.

[SlyGuyTtjn]

Theres definetly soemthing under there, the top left area is black underneath and the right is white

you can see what appears to be light grey too.

why would WB show two face? wouldnt it make more sense to show joker?

[Noir]

why would WB show two face? wouldnt it make more sense to show joker?How does it make more sense to show a picture of the Joker in a Harvey Dent ad :huh:

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

You know what..your right..the clue is in the peeling away the skin line..

it may be a picture of two face..but why release him before the joker?

[Mike_D202]

Did anybody see the pixel that was highlighted on the page? (by an animted square).

http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n28/MikeD202/weird.jpg

[fabman]

I don't think we'll see Two Face in ANY official pic!

Could be a new pic of Batman!

[ghost_x]

Knowone would of thought they would release a picture of Dent before anything, yet they did

[Juggernaut33]

How does it make more sense to show a picture of the Joker in a Harvey Dent ad :huh:

It is most probably that the Joker is going to drive Harvey Dent insane (the same way as he did to Jim Gordon in The Killing Joke), so it is kind of a metaphore.

[Bond]

Has anyone noticed the e-mail that it send you?

It's from tragicpast@ibelieveinharveydenttoo.com.

Tragic past.

Like The Joker maybe?

And also... maybe this is the other side of Two-Face saying he believes in Harvey Dent too?

[ghost_x]

It doesn't sound like the Joker to mention a tragic past if he had one. I think it refers more to Dent

[Klidokrator]

and why then Harvey is painted like the Joker?

[dark_b]

How does it make more sense to show a picture of the Joker in a Harvey Dent ad :huh:joker is the main villain in TDK ....dent becomes two face at the end of TDK.

:huh:

ok again how will two face look will be a suprise. at least this is what i think.and even if it isnt two face is not in this movie.
so again why show him before joker?
makes no sense to me.

[Carmine Falcone]

It doesn't sound like the Joker to mention a tragic past if he had one. I think it refers more to Dent

Dent had a tragic past?

[dark_b]

That shows the pixel that you unlocked.

I just hope tat behind Dent is the Joker and not any dumb schoolgirl named Jessica or anything Else

[Mike_D202]

So everytime a person visits the site, a pixel is unlocked? Why doesnt the hype! or BOF post the damn link?! Or even AICN?!

[ghost_x]

who said that?

should I of emphasised the word 'thought' for you? :o

[ghost_x]

Dent had a tragic past?

ummm ye? I'd consider an abusive father, quite tragic :o:whatever:

[The Last Meatbag]

I have a pretty good feeling we're going to see the Joker.

[Klidokrator]

But why to infom us about his smile if he is not the Joker?

[Lunar_Wolf]

I have a pretty good feeling we're going to see the Joker.


Yeah same here. I mean look at Dent's face, quite clearly done by The Joker himself. And it could be Joker exposing his tragic past.

[Klidokrator]

But why to inform us about his smile if he is not the Joker?

[ghost_x]

Maybe Dent had some connection to Jokers history

God if its not the joker then i will turn to satanism!:hellboy:

[Klidokrator]

Maybe Dent had some connection to Jokers history

Maybe he stole his girlfriend!:woot:

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

Or maybe it just has to do with Dent wanting to bring him in.

[The Last Meatbag]

It probably just has to do with the fact that the Joker wants ****ing anarchy in the streets, and what better way than to cripple an exposed Justice system?

[DOO BEE]

jokers history in the killing joke was tragic if you ask me.....

and nolan did say they are pulling from that!


but gotham is corrupt as we all know, and by the way it was in BEGINS, falcone describes who was in his bar, now he doesnt mention dent or anything he actually states people who are in his line of work, now what if the new crime boss has dent under his finger on black mail, and joker is aware of this secret....

like ra's on to scarecrow on to falcone

new mob boss onto joker... on to dent

in that sense....


so new boss send joker out on a job to out dents past stopping him from becoming DA... so thats maybe the baddie plot for TDK

and to that dent wants joker off the streets for the purpose of peoples votes (as he tells bruce and all the important people) but he really wants joker off the street as he is the only one with power to out dents past hmmmm

my guess..... better then nothing you know




what do you think?

[donk70]

Or maybe it just has to do with Dent wanting to bring him in.
Maybe Dent is using The Joker's crime spree as a platform to get himself elected DA in the movie...........


:cwink:

[ghost_x]

I don't know why, but i'm starting to think the whole Dent campaign posters fake. I zoomed in and it's a really badly edited picture of Eckhart. The way it's super imposed on the background it really amateurly done, it's choppy and the edges are not smooth.

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

but it links through the batman site!

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

I know, I know, but as people have pointed out the address for BB was different. I'm sure it is real, it's just such a poorly edited picture, it just doesnt sit well with me

[IamtheBatman]

Maybe, Dent and Joker are on the same page. And when Dent is elected batman get's joker.

but its an official web site. its WB. look at superman. extreme bad photoshop job with official pics.

Have you seen real campaign posters? Most are done in a style similar to Dent's.

[DOO BEE]

I know, I know, but as people have pointed out the address for BB was different. I'm sure it is real, it's just such a poorly edited picture, it just doesnt sit well with me


nothing perfect mate...

but i am sure WB just hired a really bad artist to do this simple poster.... and i am also sure we are not in thwe world of batman coz waynes money would have paid ofr the best....

but as we are in the REAL world... the artist is just poor.... but hey send ur resume if you can do better

lol :woot:

[Noir]

I know, I know, but as people have pointed out the address for BB was different. I'm sure it is real, it's just such a poorly edited picture, it just doesnt sit well with me
Well I think it may be made to look horrible, most political campaign posters look horrible.

[SpiderB]

Does someone else think that the pic behind the Harvey Dent poster is gonna take days to come by.

I think we'll have a pretty good idea of what it is by sometime tomorrow, but yea, that's still a hell of a lot of pixels to unlock before the picture even starts to become clear.

I'm sure somebody could do the math and figure out exactly how many pixels the picture is made up of.

[donk70]

I said that about a week ago..

We're thinking along the same lines.

Picture this: The Joker is holding Gotham "hostage" by robbing banks, jewlery stores, art galleries, ect ect, and Dent (a narcisistic lawyer who olny cares about his position in society) promises that if he is elected he will bring in The Joker. The city hears this, elects him, and Dent gets his man (with Bats help, of course). During the trial, a pissed off Joker douses the left side of his body with acid........


Que: Batman 3

[union_jak]

Well I've tried 2 email addresses and neither got anything.

Check your Spam Box.

[DOO BEE]

the joker i think in some way if he is helping dent it will be cool ot see joker waiting in the shadows of dents office... as he confronts him about a recent media interview and talking about joker as if he is the cities sewer rat king, joker gets angry and confronts dent... and is continuously talking of how batman did the scaring to his face and dent shows no care at all... and therfore joker has extreme hatred for dent and scars his face later onin the movie some how but we have joker screaming "who cares now dent!" after he does it... hmmm?

i dunno thought it was cool in my head
