well...

they should have come to there senses right after seeing the dam trailer

 

[MaskedManJRK]

that was a bit too creepy.

I dunno...I think Insomnia is creepier. Sly at least had some sympathy going for him, his character in Insomnia was just a manipulative, murderious bastard.

hes not TOO OLD!!!

 

[Shedhut]

cmon stop it please.
1. he is too old.
2. he has no joker spirit. whatever he acts he will always be the sad clown type of guy which doesnt cover the whole Joker attitude.
3....he, uhm, is too old...*runs away*

Robin Willaims is a possible candidate for the role of the Joker. He is able to portray a dark grim character. He acted very well in the dramatic role of Walter Finch in Christopher Nolan's Insomnia. Jack Nicholson was perfect for the role of Burton's Joker in BATMAN. Christopher Nolan would like the Joker in the batman begins sequel someone you hate. A villian that is totally pure evil. No jokes, just insane. Robin Willaims has proven he can accomplish such a role in Death To Smoochey and One Hour Photo. Robin Willaims is a chameleon. As much as I am interested to see him on screen as the Joker, I think an unknown may yet to be found for such a role. Lachey Hulme would also be an excellent casting choice for the Joker. I think Christopher Nolan and David S. Goyer will continue to develop themes from THE LONG HALLOWEEN. Robin Willaims would be fasinating in thwe role of Joker. Nice pic of Robin Williams as the Joker though.

xwolverine2, the truth is that you are not willing to look at anyone else for the role. you're set on robin williams and you're going to be very disappointed when 2008 comes around. you're too busy defending him against what everyone is saying about him, when EVERYONE ELSE IS RIGHT.

he IS too old.
he DOESN'T look the part
(and yes, there IS a difference between looks and age)
he IS typecast in family comedies.

here is my honest openion: i'm sure williams could provide us with a unique take on the joker. he'd probably be fine and would look and act crazy. but there are so many that fit the part so much better than him. and nolan knows that. we definitely need a younger, taller, and thinner joker, and judging by the fact that bettany and hulme are "front runners", we're gping to get that.

my vote's still for hulme.
xwolverine2, i think you're just a hardcore Doubtfire fan.

Damn Jim Carrey! Why did you accept the part as Riddler in Batman Forever? *sigh* Carrey would've been perfect for The Joker, he looks like The Joker, he IS The Joker.

 

[El Payaso]

he looks like the joker =/= he is the joker, necessarily.

 

[Doc Holliday]

Are you crazy? Nicholson was great!

He's rated among the top 50 greatest movie villains of all time by the AFI as the Joker.

 

[StorminNorman]

Jack Nicholson was a great villian and a great 1940's Joker. Sadly the very old-school Joker is not THE Joker in my mind.

That was my problem with Jack. He did play a good villain, and he was a fairly faithful interpretation of one of Joker's incarnations, he just wasn't the Joker that I'm a fan of. I prefer the modern Joker to the older one, the loner sociopath over the mob boss with henchman.

That's why you wouldn't CAST Robin Williams if you're Batman director. Williams is great actor but I don't want him as Joker.

 

[fabman]

Whatever Christopher Nolan does! It will be the right thing! Even if he'll cast Paris Hilton as The Joker, it will be a good flick

 

[El Payaso]

No, it won't.

Just another example of...

When Analogies Go Wrong. Coming to Fox this fall.

Here's the difference with me:

Okay, Christian Bale was casted as Batman--now, there were other actors out there that could have done the role some justice, but Bale was the one who could do it best. Why? Because he GETS THE CHARACTER. Robin Williams, in his interviews, showed that he understands the character, while the other guys haven't said s**t.

WHAT!?... i was a bettany fan then i switched to robin. i def. wouldnt mind if they could find some one who both has the looks,and persona for the joker.

EVERYONE ELSE IS NOT RIGHT, its an opinion ok!..... yours is no better than mine.

i hate doubtfire....

what!? who says he couldnt play that type of role?

 

[Two-Face]

What the hell are you talking about? Don't put words in my mouth. I never said he couldn't I just don't want another Nicholson type of Joker. I want tall skinny younger Joker.

 

[FCEEVIPER]

......................

Too old, get over it.

 

[Doc Holliday]
