[batman11]

how about?

Hayden panettiere?

That would be his easiest.

 

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

That would be his easiest.

personally i wouldn't mind playing with her..

 

[donk70]

how about?

Hayden panettiere?

I wouldn't put it past him

(I had to Google that name. Man, I'm getting old)

 

[Figs]

Absolutely This is the same guy that screamed "EVERYONE" in Léon!

Love that scene. t:

 

[batman11]

Well when you're done with her...send her over to me.

 

[Two-Face]

Gary Oldman rocks.

YEAH!

 

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

Well when you're done with her...send her over to me.

nah, she's a keeper.

 

[The Count]

All he needs is the pipe

 

[batman11]

nah, she's a keeper.

Damn. I was really looking forward to it. Ahh well...

**To myself** (Perhaps I should get Oldman to play her while I sneak the real Hayden out the back)

We need some little scenes with Gary and family, he's the only average guy in the story

 

[Darkly Dexter]

He is a great actor and a great Jim Gordon, the most closest to the comic character.

Don't forget the guy who paints his face white, dies his hair green and puts on red lipstick to cover up gruesome scars.

 

[Dirt Like Me]

Nice find madsci.

It's funny how things work out, too. Based on rumors, in Begins Chris Cooper or Kurt Russell were the first choices for Jim Gordon. Which I guess would've worked out, but big ups to whoever thought of Oldman. He's absolutely perfect. I can't imagine anybody doing a better job of playing the Year One Gordon.

 

[BubbaGump]

Gary Oldman is like TAS. It's the adaptation that everyone likes.

And those who don't mysteriously dissappear...

 

[Batty Belfry]

Gary Oldman is amazing in every role he plays. He just melts into it.

 

[Symbiotic]

Gary Oldman is great. Best roles IMO: Zorg and Gordon. (although, I still think that The Fifth Element should've had a final fight between Korben and Zorg)

 

[FCEEVIPER]

Just AWESOME.

[Doc Holliday]

Man, that was definitely a good interview, but especially good writing on the reporter's part. Did anyone else notice that?

One of his less subtle performances t:

 

[itsthebatman]

He's just brilliant as Gordon. Hands down the best choice for the role.
I don't think I ever seen him in a role that I didn't like. His Lee Harvey Oswald in JFK was excellent.

Was Chris Cooper or Dennis Quaid approached before Oldman/ Glad they turned it down if so. Agreed about JFK - watched that two weeks ago and he was mesmerising.

I wouldn't put it past him

(I had to Google that name. Man, I'm getting old)

You don't watch Heroes? Best thing on telly these days.

Don't forget the guy who paints his face white, dies his hair green and puts on red lipstick to cover up gruesome scars.

He sounds 'teh realisticz'.

 

[StorminNorman]

He nails two of my favorite fictional characters - Jim Gordan and Sirius Black. Not bad for one of my favorite actors
