The Dark Knight Joker Casting Threads [merged-30]

I will never understand why Furlong didn't play John Connor in T3.

the producers didn't want him. bad rep and they wanted a better actor.

 

[Ronny Shade]

T3 was just as bad.

T3 was not that bad. (But I haven't seen Crow 4)

That depresses me. They could've at least gotten somebody who resembled him.

 

[CConn]

Nothing is as bad as Crow 4.

Well...maybe gang rape.

 

[spanish39]

It still amazes me how this thread has reached page 227, It just keeps recycling itself over and over again with bits of crap in between. Now we are talking about Crow 4 lmao! It's great

You're right, but the Crow 3 is worse than gang rape.

 

[batadz]

i dint even know there was a second one!!!!!!

 

[Victor Creed]

It wasn't all that great. It's only saving grace was the fact that Mia Kirshner was in it and she's pretty hot. She was workin the depressingly cute gothic chick thing.

 

[batadz]

it is just a proper goth film though anyway

 

[Ronny Shade]

Yeah, but The Crow 4 has David Boreanaz in it...you can't go wrong!!

I turned Crow 2 off...and I NEVER turn films off...I would rather had heated up a couple of needles and put them slowly into my eyes.

 

[Qui Gon Ducard]

In fact taht may have been more fun!

OK, when it comes to Crow movies, the guy who has seen them LITREALY hundreads of times, is king. This would be me. The first one was probobly a gift directly from God, the second one was ok nothing speacial but it had good moments that defined the character and an interesting (even if over done) plot line, the thrid movie has NO, and I say again, NO excuse and was horrible at best, but the third one came in and redeemed the series in my opinion. It wasn't a big budget, and it didn't have tons of speacial effects, but It didn't need to, the story was great, the actor where great, and it showed something similar to the first movie, what someone would realy think, feel, and do, in that situation. It was fantastical reality at its best, not as good as the first one, but much better than any other crow film thus far.

You mean the fourth.


So as someone who has only seen the first one, how should I proceed? Besides purchasing the first one and worshiping it for it's greatness and Ernie Hudson.

The others aren't worth watching unless you are bored and have Netflix.

 

[sinewave]

they haven't made a decent crow flick since the first one. at least the second one had mia kirshner in it

 

[Katsuro]

or work at a video store and get free rentals. Man, i watch so many crappy movies these days... getting free rentals is awesome. I should rent the Crow flicks, I haven't seen any of them.

Ya, lol, didn't even notice, I would edit but what the hell.

As as as far as how you should procede, check out the second one and I'm sure you'll at least like parts of it, probobly not the entire thing, but there are some exceptional parts. skip completely over number three or I swear you'll go blind (notice my previous type-o, its happening to me already!) But watch number four, it was pretty good, all except for the dumb blond ***** who can't act! But the rest of the cast was good, even Danny Trejo!

 

[Ronny Shade]

I will take your advice. Is City of Angels #2 or #3?

 

[Brian2887]

Ok... I think I've suggested this guy before, but I'm gonna do it again because that was a long time ago.


Christopher Titus: For a while, he had his own Fox comedy. Dude can do drama and insane off-the-wall comedy. Watch his Comedy Central stand-up, "Norman Rockwell is Bleeding" to see him do some serious over-the-top Joker stuff while being sickly funny. Plus, I think he's got a bit of the Joker look in him.

 

[Britboy]

He looks very riddler-ish to me.....

 

[ToddIsDead]

I think that's because he some-what resembles Batman Forever Jim Carrey.

I don't think he's right for the Joker. Funny guy though.

This choice...intrigues me.

First of all, I must congratulate you, Brian. You are one of the few posters in this thread who actually try to bring up new possible candidates for the role rather than toss around the same old names (even if you mentioned Titus awhile back).

I really liked his show on Fox. He was very funny and creative. His humor, from what I recall, is quite dark, and he does look the part. He could probably pull off the part, but I don't want to see any comedians in the role, because that just brings up the old stereotype that The Joker is supposed to be funny, which is untrue. The only comedian who I think can possily due justice to the role would be Denis Leary because he's done dramtic work (Robin Williams could've also worked when he was younger because he is also a great serious actor).

I wouldn't mind if, in some almost impossible to happen upset, Titus or some other comedian would get the part. It'd be interesting to see what they'd bring to the part.

That being said, I'd strongly prefer the role to go to aserious actor, like Bettant, Roth, Brody, Penn or even Jason Lee (who is generall regarded as a comedic actor, but is aweome at serious stuff).

 

[The Chairman]

And just because I'm bored, here's my top five once again. It hasn't really changed except some people have changed positions.

1) Paul Bettany

2) Tim Roth

3) Jason Lee

4) Adrien Brody

5) Sean Penn

 

[Two-Face]

Adrien Brody is my first choice!
