It's fun. Why so serious?

 

[ChicageauxTiger]

Meh, who cares?

I thought it was interesting ... JERK!

 

[Darknightnomis]

I was hoping for Vanessa Redgrave as Leslie Thompkins to be true.

 

[Prison Mike]

I liked the idea of the Penguin as an arms dealer and played by Phillip Seymour Hoffman.

I liked the idea of the Penguin as an arms dealer and played by Phillip Seymour Hoffman.

Likewise.

Meh, who cares?

then stay out of the thread. no one needs to know whether you care or not.

Robin Williams as the Joker. I about s**t my pants and was ready to put Nolan in a volcano with Schumacher if that was going to happen.

Thy said he would be the son of the millionares of Gotham that lost everything. So, he flew to Russia, became an arm dealer and then, he comes back to Gotham, hired by Richard Earle to kill Bruce Wayne.

 

[Prison Mike]

is Mr. Earle back in TDK?

 

[protocida]

No that whe know...

 

[DocHoliday]

Also Joker was said to be a smaller part. A wild card that starts a mob war between Sionis and Maroni and that The Penguin was dealing arms to both sides.

 

[turtlefocker]

This thread definitely belongs in the spoiler forum....

 

[Nirvana]

The Joker having gray skin...

 

[theJ0K3R]

Rachel McAdams would of been nice.

 

[Carusos Shades]

Justin Timberlake for Two Face! Remember that one? Oh the horror.

 

[Darknightnomis]

I liked the idea of the Penguin as an arms dealer and played by Phillip Seymour Hoffman.

Yeah, this would been real cool! Still can happen in the 3rd one, hopefully.

Not likely noting Nolans admitted aversion to the character.

 

[Venom 1988]

Not likely noting Nolans admitted aversion to the character.

Which is dumb because if he can do Joker and Two-Face, he can easily do Penguin. All he is is a short fat guy, with a bigger than normal nose.

I seem to remember Ryan Phillipe strongly rumored as Harvey Dent/Two-Face.

 

[JokerLedger]

I seem to remember Ryan Phillipe strongly rumored as Harvey Dent/Two-Face.

And I wasn't opposed to that
