Oooooooo, Clown wants to ****!

Any gifs where he's not just scowling?

Any positive or helpful remarks to make, Art?

 

[The Lazarus Pit]

I'd said before that a Lynch-helmed Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth would be a dream.

you inspired me to make a fan cast for

David Lynch’s
BATMAN​

 

[The Lazarus Pit]

I’m starting to see it. He looks a bit like Brian Bolland’s Joker to me. What movie convinced you he could do it?

Captain Fantastic
Kelly Gang
1917

Talented guy. Commits to physicality.

 

[The Lazarus Pit]

Chalamet?

 

[shauner111]

I’ll puke.

 

[AndyTrevino]

Chalamet would be very funny in a bad way probably

 

[AndyTrevino]

Like, I don't buy that he's a **** actor but he feels so wrong for Joker. Yeah Heath, Jack, and Jared all had large female followings but they didn't give off ****boi vibes like Timothee

 

[JubJub86]

Yeah. I mean admittedly I've seen not that much of his work, but making that guy scary in any way shape or form seems...shall we say, a challenge.

 

[RokMeAmadeus]

Tim of Thee Chamomile Tea legit just said recently he won't do superhero movies. I know Batman films tend to be the rare exception for those types at this point but it definitely wouldn't happen any time soon, if ever, so idk how anyone keeps bringing him up. Especially since,well, it'd be a poor choice lol

 

[Boom]

He's a talented guy but something about him really irritates me. I don't know if it's his almost cult-like following of fans, or the fact that he looks bored out of his mind all the time. Either way, hard pass.

 

[emielaen]

Lol he’s a pretty chill dude in interviews and is very talented as a lead or support. I think we’d be lucky to get him one of these films, but for Joker? I don’t see it personally.

 

[Art Vandelay]

I was surprised to learn he's 25. He still looks like he could pass for fifteen.

 

[AndyTrevino]

Less gooooo

Hear me out.

- Joker was set in the late 70s or 80s, ive heard both are possible.
- The Batman can easily be set in the early 90s considering the music and tone we've seen. Im not sure if anyone has confirmed this or not. But possible.

Imagine for me, if you will, at the end of "The Batman" it is revealed that Joker is the mastermind to everything going on. Imagine being in the theater and the last scene goes something like this......

We see Batman in victory, standing in some setting. There is something between Batman and him physically going after a group of bad guys who are still at large. As Batman looks on, we slowly see Phonexi's joker emerge and stare down Batman. The scene flashes to that famous scene in Joker of young Bruce standing over his parents. Then the scene jumps back to Joker and Batman simply staring each other down, no words, just their eyes. Phoenix's Joker slowly smiles in the same way he did to Murray before he killed him. Fade to Black.

Can you imagine how awesome that'd be? Why cast someone else at this point right? If you have an amazing Joker already, why try to convice the fans of yet another version?

WB needs to make this happen. Its too perfect. The tone of the Joker movie fits perfectly with the tone that Reeves is going for with The Batman.

Please WB, make this happen. And if you do, dont spoil it in a trailer or otherwise. Leave the moment for the cinema.

 

[Boom]

I don't want Phoenix in this.

 

[comiskeybum]

I don't want Phoenix in this.

Why? Did you just not like him as Joker or what?

 

[Rick190293]

I don't want Phoenix in this.

Me neither (even thought he was great). In fact, I wasn't crazy about a Joker in this universe. But after today's trailer? I NEED Reeves Joker!

 

[Art Vandelay]

Second post of mine deleted by mods today, this must be a new record.

 

[Boom]

Why? Did you just not like him as Joker or what?

I liked him for the version of the character he played in Phillips' film.

I want Reeves' Joker.

 

[WayneMB]

well, the 2nd trailer reassures that joker in this universe would absolutely rock
