The man who laughs: The Joker thread

[Why Are You Crouching Spock?]

Actually it makes sense to me now. If you'll watch the prologue again closely you'll see that the corner he is standing on, he is at an angle. So when the pull up and hit the corner they don't actually see his face, and then when you see it hit the corner and it is pulling up he hurries to put the mask on.

Yea, but wouldn't they seem him in the car mirror?

[ActuallyRobin]

Yea, but wouldn't they seem him in the car mirror?

They weren't paying much attention, simple as that. Were just concentrating on getting to the bank. Wouldn't let it worry you, but it obviously does :p

[dark_b]

in my avvy it looks like his goon said "watch out this thing is powerful" joker is like "whatever" bam "EEEEE!"i agree. he is so funny in that scene.

[dark_b]

this is to me a clown from hell :hehe:

its pure evil.

[CaptainClown]

It looks people I explain the whole viral campaign to

[Octoberist]

You know, I'm starting to think the look isn't half bad. I went from hating it to disliking it, but now I'm thinking it's rather decent, with what they're going for. Don't get me wrong, don't think I love it but I think it's actually 'working' in this film.


And first Joker wearing a pink nurses outfit, now it looks like he's in a garbage bag when he kills Loeb, wouldn't want to stain his suit. This is too perfect:woot:

Al ot of Nolan's designs are like that. They don't leave everlasting first impressions. However, they tend to grow on you: Tumbler, the batsuit (both versions), Batpod, etc.

WIth the Joker, I like the 'sloppy' look. I would like for him to wear a thicker coat of white paint on his face. But the more I watched the trailer, I was like "Hey, it's not bad".

[CaptainClown]

ya octoberist almost everything about the batman series I go. Eh its alright, well minus the joker I liked that off the bat, and gary oldman. But it really grows on you

[ronny]

Wait, who didn't like the Tumbler? The "Batmobile" from the comics is a total joke compared to the Tumbler. Who didn't like it?!

Probably one of the best scenes from the trailer...I remember watching the bootleg at almost 3 in the morning waiting for it to load on my computer and then that shot came up and actually scared the crap out of me. He looks so evil, it's pure magic.

[dark_b]

so what do you all think about the dialoge at the beginnig?

''see to them you are just a freak......pause.....LIKE ME (joker voice)''

i think it was amazing.

he really looks like he is one of the dangerous guys on the earth but at the same time he is funny and enjoys it. not to serious.

[dark_b]

Probably one of the best scenes from the trailer...I remember watching the bootleg at almost 3 in the morning waiting for it to load on my computer and then that shot came up and actually scared the crap out of me. He looks so evil, it's pure magic.this shot is IMO perfection.

i think batman just kciked hes ass. and joker just lok at him like he doesnt care.

i am telling you guys....pure evil.

meeeh there is no way that this is all acting. bale looks like a very serious guy in real life. thats why i htink he plays a lot of times a serious and angry guy. i think its the same with ledger .he is just crazy.

[Starbird]

He's probably thinking.. "Batsy....I can see your nips :hoboj:!" But seriously..I was in the theatre awaiting 'I am Legend' and the theatre was packed with adults.. and this middle aged woman did a demonic scream when that scene came upon the screen.. it made me jump... I must be a pansy or the Joker..well he's doin his job..

You do realize this is the early stages of the Joker right? The fact that he doesn't reapply the make-up makes it spread all over his face and make his entire face white.

[Magenta666]

so you think it spreads? i didnt consider that, but it makes more sence because the end of the trailer is clearly closer to the end of the movie and his face is completely white there.

[Davinder1985]

When do you think the joker crashes the party happens? Because his make up looks almost perfect there.

[Magenta666]

When do you think the joker crashes the party happens? Because his make up looks almost perfect there.

it must be early on...or batman wouldnt say "then youll love me" if they have been fighting through the whole movie...but then again you can never be sure if these things are from the same scene

[Davinder1985]

The joker must re-apply his make up at least once in the film regardless of what we herd. The prologue is the first part of the film and in the bank scene his make-up is all messed up. However his make-up at the dinner party, and also when he shoots the rocket lanucher looks really good. He must re-apply it at some point, remember there is also a scene when his looking in a mirror so maybe then?

[TheCaptain]

Something tells me we haven't seen any footage of Joker post-arrest yet... I think it goes bank robbery--> dinner party--> semi chase/batpod confrontation--> arrest--> some grand climax we don't know about yet/

the scene with the two barges

and that Joker reapplies his makeup after the bank robbery and then again after the arrest/escape. Hell, he may look totally different than the pics we've scene after he busts out of prison.

Did anyone else get a BTAS feel from the rocket lanucher clip. Joker fires the thing and then recoils and winces, almost like he didn't know how much power it would have and he bit off more than he could chew.

Reminds me of the BTAS Joker doing way more damage than he intended and just smiling and saying "Woops!"

Wait, who didn't like the Tumbler? The "Batmobile" from the comics is a total joke compared to the Tumbler. Who didn't like it?!I didn't like it at first, but then I saw it in motion and totally had a change of heart. That seems to be the way I look at things most of the time with Nolan's movies.. don't like it so much in pictures, but when I see it in motion, it wins me over. I really like his Joker a LOT more when he's in motion than just in pictures.

[CrypticOne]

Does anyone know what part of the movie is when the Joker goes into that party or whatever and fires the shotgun in the air? And why'd he go after Rachel first?

I'm really not crazy about Ledger's portrayl of the Joker. They seem to have gotten the sociopath characterization right, but I also feel Ledger's Joker is a bit too dry. It seems like they wanted to get so far away from Jack's over-the-top Joker that they took all of the clown out of him and made him into a poor man's Two-Face who laughs too much.

I'm actually glad Nolan made the Joker how he is. I wouldn't want him to be a copy of Jack's Joker, so I'm glad they took their own approach, and are creating a monster out of this Batman Begins saga. It spices things up and makes things appear more real. Personally, I'm liking Nolan's and Ledger's Joker more than Jack's.

I feel that Ledger's Joker will have a great sense of humor, be it more sadistic or sick to the audience, it will be his sense of humor.

This Joker, Ledger's, seems more into the action of things, which I love. I'm not saying prievous Joker's weren't, but seeing it on film is awesome. Him firing the tommy gun at Batman, launching the rocket, and what looks to be knifing people, looks great.

[Figs]

Oh, I definitely don't want a clone of Jack's, Joker. At the same time, I don't want a Joker who is void of what makes him the Joker. His sense of humor.


I don't think he'll be void of his sense of humour, he just won't be as silly or campy as Romero/Nicholson. They have already said many, many times in the past that he is heavily being based off of his first two appearances. He wasn't as silly and full of jokes in those first appearances. From what we've all seen in the trailer, I think he still will have some humour to his personality.

Like that scene where he is laughing his ass off while driving the big rig. Remember, what he does or says is usually supposed to only be funny to him and not others(minus us demented Joker fans). :woot: :cwink:

[Mr. Socko]

Oh, I definitely don't want a clone of Jack's, Joker. At the same time, I don't want a Joker who is void of what makes him the Joker. His sense of humor.


But to address your point, I do think the sense of humor will be intact, one that would be more on the darker side. I thought there was a bit of humor in the "You've got a little fight in you, I like that" line, as well as the high pitched "Like Me" proceeding this talk about Batman being lost into a world of freaks. And the laugh was great I think the characterization is coming off very nicely, I only wanted him to look a little more vibrant.

Although I love this darker side of him that we haven't gotten on screen before(to this level at least). I also hope it goes a bit more indepth with his humour. Hopefully, there just saving some of the really good stuff for when you see the movie.

I hope they don't spoil too much when the release a full trailer in the next 3-5 months.

I don't know about that, I was actually surprised by the amount of devilish playfulness and sadistic sense of humor Ledger showed in the trailer. That's actually what I loved about the trailer: one scene the Joker is completely psychotic, the other scene The Joker is playful, but in a devil kind of way.

His sense of humor is not as obvious as Jack or Cesar's, it's more subtle. And that's more appropriate in Nolan's movies. W/C is great because i really don't want to laugh at the Joker in this movie with his antics and actions, it's been done before, I want to hate him for thinking of the world as a joke and thinking that mass murdering is a laughing matter.

I want to laugh at the Joker's actions...but I want to be ashamed for laughing a few seconds later. In my eyes that is the perfect Joker. Does that make any sense?

[shapeshifter]

I like to think Ledger is right on with the Joker's sense of humor. In that journal he was keeping he made a list of things that joker would find funny. AIDS was on there for crying out loud. it sounds like this joker is not devoid of a sense of humor, rather he just has the sickest, most demented sense of humor possible.

[Compi716]

After watching the trailer over and over and OVER again, I have come to this conclusion: despite the odd and untraditional appearance of the Joker, I am absolutely in LOVE with him in this film. Nolan and Ledger have crafted something genuinely new and exciting, and I can't wait!

Still, I hope this movie belongs to Bale. He is my favorite, after all.

[LastSunrise1981]

I want to laugh at the Joker's actions...but I want to be ashamed for laughing a few seconds later. In my eyes that is the perfect Joker. Does that make any sense?

It makes sense, but the problem is humor can ultimately ruin a creepy character that is given a much darker treatment. I also heard quite a few laughs during the prologue preview that I watched on Youtube.

Joker's humor seems more subtle and dry, which I feel is perfect for this particular film. When I see Joker I want to be afraid of him I want him to make kids cry and have nightmares. Although I do think he will be showcasing some interesting humor that makes him The Joker. Let's not forget about him hanging out of the window of a moving police car, making a quip to Rachel, his interaction with the bank manager, his clapping in the jail, and the way he reacts after he shoots an RPG was classic as well.

[antonydelfini]

Yeah, from what weve seen so far (putting a grenade inside somebody's stomach, the bus driver scene, Rachel dawes confrontation, Nurse Joker), Heath's Joker is going to try to be funny (he's Joker after all), but we won't laugh as much as he does with his antics because he scares us more than he makes us laugh. I think that's great.

[CrypticOne]

I've been trying to master the Joker's laugh, this is no picnic. How do they do it? Is it done with computers? Or is Ledger really laughing?

[TheDarkVictory]

I've been trying to master the Joker's laugh, this is no picnic. How do they do it? Is it done with computers? Or is Ledger really laughing?

i think its just ledger laughing. no way would nolan settle for computer effects. i think ledger is just truly unhinged.

[Starbird]

I think he's really laughing..and I think it's part of his smoking voice. If that makes sense..

[The Guard]

It may well be Ledger laughing. He strikes me as a tenor, and a tenor could conceivably reach those pitches doing the right kind of laugh.

[TheBatman072]

Yeah, I can't do his laugh at all. I can do both his speaking voices, but not his laugh.

[rpenguin]

Because Nolan's portrayl of the Joker is TOO serious :cwink:

I don't think you appreciate how funny it is when people die or are horribly maimed/humiliated/disfigured.

[TheDarkVictory]

Yeah, I can't do his laugh at all. I can do both his speaking voices, but not his laugh.

sometimes when im alone in my apartment's elevator or in the shower, i try the voice. it's getting pretty close. i just dont want my roommates/girlfriend hearing me do it.

*WINNER OF MOST DEPRESSINGLY SAD POST EVER*

[CrypticOne]

I can kind of do the laugh where in the trailer its just going to all kinds of scenes and then the one of him driving, where he laughs three times. But dang, thats amazing if you can do it, if Ledger just laughs like that, thats awesome. I've been practicing but to no avail. My family thinks I'm going crazy.

oh and so this post actually has a BIT of relevance...I think Joker is almost dead on perfection in this movie. The amount of people i know who had no idea that was even him on screen makes it so satisfying, because thats what TRUE acting should do for the audience.

[Afrigginhobbit]

sometimes when im alone in my apartment's elevator or in the shower, i try the voice. it's getting pretty close. i just dont want my roommates/girlfriend hearing me do it.

*WINNER OF MOST DEPRESSINGLY SAD POST EVER*

rofl i do the same thing. When i go out on my bike for my daily go around i work on my voice and laugh. My neighbors think im nuts...oh well.

:word:

[antonydelfini]

I can kind of do the laugh where in the trailer its just going to all kinds of scenes and then the one of him driving, where he laughs three times. But dang, thats amazing if you can do it, if Ledger just laughs like that, thats awesome. I've been practicing but to no avail. My family thinks I'm going crazy.

Maybe you are. Most of us are.

[TheBatman072]

Yeah, I always do it when everybody's asleep or I'm by myself or there's a lot of noise around me.

[The Caped Knight]

Because Nolan's portrayl of the Joker is TOO serious :cwink:

Yeah man, this movie is driving me insane! I write for the school newspaper at my school and all I want to do is cover the Joker. This guy is in my mind, laughing, all the time. Then I get wild theories about the movie and what will characters do, and all this. Well, the only other person I think about more than the Joker is the girl of my dreams, but geez, why did Nolan have to make this movie so awesome? All these dark aspects, amazing acting, with the great story. Its maddening! :hoboj:

teh black around the eyes is now IMO the bestthing one hes face.
it makes it always look like a shadow. which is scarry

but would it really hurt if the hair was a little more green?in some scenes it looks like brown. even when joker is walking to rachel it dark/brown green.

and yeah i agree that this scene is straight from the cartoons.

This is so great. I love how he has no idea what he's doing... all he cares about is that he gets to see something blow up. :hoboj::up:

[Davinder1985]

Did any of you guys notice how in the prologue the joker really isn't clown like. He speaks in a completely normal voice, even at the punch line. Yet from the trailer we can really see how this changes. It just shows that Nolan is really going for character development, the audience is going to witness how this man just keeps gettin more insane and how changes himself mentally and physically. I think that shot of him looking at the mirror laughing is really a significant scene of him embracing this.

Big contrast to Nicholson who just became crazy after bathing in acid.

This is so great. I love how he has no idea what he's doing... all he cares about is that he gets to see something blow up. :hoboj::up:

That's a great observation, and true. Not a stitch of dialogue, but Heath plays that so well - he clearly has no idea how to operate the thing, nor the amount of blowback it causes (as he awkwardly recoils after he shoots it.) Instead, he's like a little kid, excited to shoot it at something without hesitation. Wonderfully played.

Yea dude during the prologue he`s tryin to keep a low profile and just fit in with the rest of the goons...He`s not going to act lyk the boss since he wants the rest of the guys to think the jokers not actually there. But if ya ask me thats still very jokerish- he`s cunning, smart, and a master of disguise just lyk batman and theres more to him than just laughing and bouncing around lyk a maniac

[Davinder1985]

Just looked at the teaser again; my bad with the mirror thing. However the idea of him become more joker like as the film goes on is really appealing to me. If we get to see him go through this transformation it would be awesome. Starting to do more crazy things, his laughing going more out of control etc. Didn't Nolan say that his joker antics would become more crazy as the film develops?

No if I remember correctly he said the Joker is supposed to be the joker throughout the whole film and as for something changing throughout the film its supposed to just be his physical appearance...mainly the way his makeup starts running and him looking more and more dimented

Some Saturday morning cartoon show producer is going to see that and get the wrong idea some day...

This may be thinking ahead but does anybody else love the special features and the "background" stories of how things are created on those like two-disc 'collector's sets' of DVDs when they come out? That was the initial reason I bought the three disc set when Spider-Man 3 came out...just so I could watch a special feature about how they came up with thier version of Venom.

I hope whenever TDK comes out on DVD (by Halloween next year I bet...like BB did) we get a lot of cool features on the Joker.

I bet they would even include all the viral fun we've had...

"It's all a joke! Everything anybody ever valued or struggled for... it's all a monstrous, demented gag! So why can't you see the funny side? WHy aReN'T yoU LauGhINg?!"

[darknight7]

I have to agree with that.

Except for McKean's Joker. I don't recall him really having messy hair. It looked like classic Joker hair, but just very elongated and over exagerated.

But his hands sure did scare the crap out of me.

Really?

You can't look at his work as canon.

ASBAR is pure gold in my eyes. I havent laughed so hard reading a comic,especially a caped superhero comic, in a long time.

The way batman talks, the way he fights. The Joker being a sadistic sexual super killer, i mean its hilarious.

I urge evryone to go and read it (at least for free on the internet) and have a good time.

This is the GodDamn batman!:brucebat:

[Afrigginhobbit]

Anyone know why, the the trailer, why the joker is wearing a trash bag when he's talking to Loeb saying "WHY SO SERIOUS??"

If its something major or really really spoilerish, though we are on a spoiler board, dont tell me. Just say thats it's major. Im trying to not have a lot of this movie spoiled. But im not going in blind like the non-spoilers board people =D

Exactly. After I first read the infamous 'Goddamn Batman' I couldn't stop laughing or reading the next issues. It's like Millar knows they'll publish anything he writes so he's just going all out.

What are you talking about? She IS my girl. :dry:

I...need to go return some videotapes.

[DaddyGrayson]

I see it now...!!!

[Batmans Spirit]

Kal El you're not Kevin SMith are you? You seem to be obsessed with homosexuality??



Nah im only kidding.

Anyone know what that comic book is?! (Above - with Joker put a smile on that dead guys face)

[DaddyGrayson]

I...need to go return some videotapes.

Yeah, I think you do... :dry:

[Stotch]

Yeah, I think you do... :dry:

[JStorm]

I think Mr. J would collapse at the competition.

How can an ugly, lanky, white-skinned guy match up to a nurturing, smart, hot redhead?

The odds are against him. :down

No I'm not (and I'm no fan of Homo) {Not that their's anything wrong with that}

I'm just pointing out the facts as I see them .

I'd never seen those comics. Does make it kinda obvious, doesn't it?

It's as clear as daylight (Their's no Gray area )

[JStorm]

Anything's possible in the comic world.

Or we could have a six-issue arc where the Joker hunts down and kills all of Harley's "girlfriends," and the writers never allude to why.

Even Batman's detective skills would laugh at that one.

This was probably one of the better designs of her I had seen in the series, period. Mostly because Tokyo Movie Shinsa animated it I think.

[DaddyGrayson]

Yes

Nah.

I'd take a lanky dude over a hot redhead, any day.

GAY!

[Ama Zing]

Bruce Timm or Paul Dini (I can't remember which, I think it was Timm) said that unofficially officially Harley and Ivy have a very, very close friendship. :cwink: And like Kal-El 8 posted, the Dini/Timm Harley and Ivy mini series all but says it directly.

[DaddyGrayson]

Nah.

Well to me they're not facts. Yeah they have a closeness but it is a close kinda sister friendship to me. And it will stay that way until something happens where the writers admit they are lovers or in a comic they are seen kissing and taking each others clothes off. :oldrazz:

[Ama Zing]

NICE! Didn't know these things.
I'm a big fan of the Harley/Ivy relationship :woot:

I prefer that it's always hinted at but never shown. There's enough lesbians in the Batverse. Unless they do a Question/Batwoman vs Harley/Ivy showdown as the ultimate fanservice.

[Batmans Spirit]

^ Yeah they can "hint" at it as much as they want but unless it is said/proved it doesn't mean anything but a closeness as friends.
Harley loves Joker - Ivy loves nobody but is very good friends with Harley in a close sister way. :) The way i see it.

[JStorm]

:funny::funny:

I'm actually curious. No, take your mind out of the gutter, and allow me to explain.

The first time I saw Ledger was in "The Patriot," and the girl I was dating, at the time, thought he was the hottest thing on two legs, as did the other girls in the group with us.

Here's my point: Will said females even recognize Ledger, and will said females still swoon at the very sight of him.

That, ladies and gentlemen, will show true fandom.

My vote: most girls will have to be told that is Heath Ledger, unless they can read.



Laugh with me, not at me.

Hell, man, if I hadn't been told that was Ledger, I wouldn't know it was him. He is UNRECOGNIZABLE. And I think some women will like him in a freaky sort of way. But overall, we all know he is an ugly Joker.

[Stotch]

But overall, we all know he is an ugly Joker.

You never know, some girls have a taste for the theatrical.

True.

I'm sure those emo girls, on the scary side of town, will love him.

However, I am also sure that the Delta Pi girls are upset that they can not read, or that Ledger is not eye-candy, in this movie.

[DaddyGrayson]

Oh I have no doubt that some women will find him attractive. And I think that makes for a believable Harley if they ever decide to introduce her.

[dark_b]

of course he doesnt look like ledger. nooen would be recognizable with this make up.

[DaddyGrayson]

of course he doesnt look like ledger. nooen would be recognizable with this make up.

I recognized Jack.

[Watson]

Oh I have no doubt that some women will find him attractive. And I think that makes for a believable Harley if they ever decide to introduce her.

I can already tell ya that I know a fair amount of girls who think he's attractive as the Joker.

He's got the same appeal as Johnny Depp had going as Jack Sparrow. The character makes him more attractive.

[El Payaso]

of course he doesnt look like ledger. nooen would be recognizable with this make up.

Good point indeed.

[JStorm]

of course he doesnt look like ledger. nooen would be recognizable with this make up.

Once, my girlfriend put on too much blush, and I could not recognize her.

[El Payaso]

I recognized Jack.

He had a Joker face to start with.

[Ama Zing]

of course he doesnt look like ledger. nooen would be recognizable with this make up.
He's not recognizable at all. When my sister first saw the trailer she said 'Wait, I thought they cast Heath Ledger? Who's this guy because he's so much better!'
She still found him attractive though. My sister's a loon.

[DaddyGrayson]

Sparrow's a little more attractive than the Joker, though. Not really a fair comparison. But I know some women will find him attractive.

[dark_b]

I recognized Jack.i am talking about the TDK make up.

[dark_b]

WB should make a spin off movie wiht ledger as the joker. it could be a horror/thriler movie.
with nolan as the producer.a small budget and some extreme scary scenes and we would have a franchise.

he could be the next freddy kruger.

[DaddyGrayson]

i am talking about the TDK make up.

It's not that different. Plus it doesn't have the perma-smile cheeks/dimples, so I'd say this make-up is actually easier to recognize someone in than the B89 makeup.

[El Payaso]

It's not that different. Plus it doesn't have the perma-smile cheeks/dimples, so I'd say this make-up is actually easier to recognize someone in than the B89 makeup.

Not with the huge black eye circles and all the lines all over the face.

Jack's make-up was made to exaggerate his already popular and recognizable smile.

Eh, maybe. Maybe it was just cuz it was Jack.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO f.... way :hehe:

[dark_b]

i knew why they add the black around the eyes. and it is perfect.

ledger looks like a clown that was in hell and came back because he was to evil.

[Stotch]

Not with the huge black eye circles and all the lines all over the face.

Jack's make-up was made to exaggerate his already popular and recognizable smile.

Yeah, I kinda agree with that. Jack's face was easily recognizable because his face was simply white and he had a smile on his face. If ledger put in white makeup and smiled, he'd be easier to recognize than having black circles around his eyes, a huge scar on his mouth, and messy white makeup.....and yellow teeth. :woot:

[Ama Zing]

Yeah, Jack's makeup was just a bigger perma-smile. Heath's covered in a mess, which a gigantic slash across his mouth and really darked eye sockets. It's hard to recognize anyone in that.

[DaddyGrayson]

I'm saying that Ledger's unrecognizable. I'm just saying it's not because of the make-up alone. He's really transformed himself.

[dark_b]

I'm saying that Ledger's unrecognizable. I'm just saying it's not because of the make-up alone. He's really transformed himself.i agree.

to concour fear you have to become......the joker. :hehe:

The voice....my god. English accent is one thing, but a daffy duck voice was totally :up::up: on my list. i'm not joking around, by the way.

......the voice. Just, the voice. Scratch the daffy duck thing off, nevermind. I'm just talking about the voice.


It reminds me of daffy duck for some really weird reason. Strange, but that's just me.

[Stotch]

His voice was Daffy Duck like, but it works in an odd way.:up::up:

Winner :grin:

[DaddyGrayson]

I don't hear the Daffy Duck.... BUT his voice is epic!

[Star]

his whole performance is going to be unreal

They hired him because he had the face and personality. They didn0t want to made him unrecognizable, on the contrary.


Yeah, I kinda agree with that. Jack's face was easily recognizable because his face was simply white and he had a smile on his face. If ledger put in white makeup and smiled, he'd be easier to recognize than having black circles around his eyes, a huge scar on his mouth, and messy white makeup.....and yellow teeth. :woot:

He did a great thing with the voice, I agree.

[Stotch]

Youtube Daffy Duck and listen to his voice, then listen to Joker's voice when he's saying "evening commisioner" and all the other lines with that kind of tone. Daffy and Joker.....are united.

[DaddyGrayson]

It's the speech impediment style in his voice that's Daffy Duck like. Like when he says commissioner, it has the 's' sound from 'Sufferin suckatash'

Alright, yeah, I can see that. :up:

[DaddyGrayson]

:huh:

Quoted For Truth. It means I agree with you. :oldrazz:
