The Dark Knight More from Ledger

[bullitt245]

Guys, if he wasn't going to enjoy making the movie and creating a character I'm sure he wouldn't do it. He said he loved Nolan's Batman, so that's all you need to know. His opinion on the Fantastic Four shouldn't worry anybody. He's saying all the things we want to hear - the Clockwork Orange comparison is great as that is one of my favorite books and movies. The vibe I get from reading the comics is similar.

Let's go Heath!

I dont see how this is much different for Bales attitude about Batman. Before he read Arkham Asylum he said he had no intrest in the character. Ledger - like Bale - is not a fan of camp and poor quality, which IMO describe most Superhero films . The only Superhero Comic Book movies that I consider really good films are X Men I-II, Begins and Superman Returns.

I actually hate comic book movies, like f***ing hate them, they just bore me sh**less and they're just dumb.

 

[StorminNorman]

lol, I love that quote actually - I love it because it shows just how special Nolan's movies are.

Ok, Ledger, 2 things:

1) gfy
2) You do the job right first and then you ramble all what you want.

It actually shows how much of an a**-licker Ledger could be.

...nah. everybody has his opinions...

 

[deathfromabove]

I'm perfectly calm dude .

your avy says otherwise

 

[War Party]

I could care less what Ledger thinks about comicbook movies. If he don't like them, that's fine. I'm just excited for The Dark Knight and seeing the Joker. I don't know why some people are getting worked up over this.

 

[Dr. MIX]

Wow, the stupidity of some of you posters... Mind-boggling... Ledger will do a fine job. That's all I've got to say.

"I actually hate comic book movies, like f***ing hate them, they just bore me sh**less and they're just dumb. But I thought what Chris Nolan did with [BATMAN BEGINS] was actually really good, really well directed, and Christian Bale was really great in it."

He means the FF4. LOL

 

[The Chairman]

Great news. I admit the "mask" comment initially tunred me off, but I wouldn't put too much thought into it.

 

[Retroman]

He hates all comic book movies? I know its his opnion but come on theres been good ones and bad ones. Just like some of the movies he's done in his career. I bet a 1000 bucks he's never watched more than 5 comic boojk movies.

As for the mask bit. It sounds like they're going make him don a prosthetic mask.He's not going to look like 'V'.

 

[Two-Face]

Well long as Ledger does great Joker in TDK I don't give a damn if he likes comic book movies or not.

That's the thing. He would work better not talking too much. So far no one cares what he thinks of comic books or movies as long as he does a good job.

Exactly.
Ledger shouldn't regurgitate his disapproval of the genre in general so much after this comment.After all he is playing the best known villains in the comic books.A man with a permanent grin on his face.

 

[SilentType]

It's a logical thing to come up in an interview, and he was honest. I don't see the problem.

Lets hope not.

The problem is everybody's discussing on what he said of comic book movies and masks and not the character or the movie.

Personally, I want to see a damn good Joker from Mr. Yawn I hate Comic book movies.

 

[Octoberist]

I don't think he meant a mask literally . . . .

exactly. People are looking too much into it.

I am sure he was flat out asked if he likes Comic Book Movies. He answered the question asked, and he answered it honestly - can't blame him for that.

 

[Two-Face]

Does anyone think that will Nolan use Red Hood origin on Joker since TKJ will insipre TDK?

How about 'No, not my kind of movies', I mean, since he's working on one that has tons of followers and comic fans?

 

[StorminNorman]

No, the Red Hood was always a fairly stupid idea IMO anyway.
