The Dark Knight The Man Who Laughs: The Joker Thread 2.0

Also, right as Joker enters the bus to make his departure, he closes the door and then makes an interesting movement/gesture, which to me, looks some-what like hes pointing back at the bank manager...

Never noticed that.

I never noticed Joker doing any gestures after he closed the door...I'll have to watch it again I guess.

The only thing I saw The Joker doing once he got in the bus was hoping over the seats.

I'm disappointed in you guys.

Right as he closes the bus door, he turns around and ties a knot around the inside latch. What's he tying, you ask? The little string attached to the grenade in the bank manager's mouth. He ties it so he can freely go drive the bus, and once he does, the tied knot will pull on the grenade trigger as he drives away.

 

[Boom]

You'd think the Bank Manager would be smart enough to, oh I don't know, pull the grenade out of his mouth and throw it as far away as possible.

finally someone agrees with me . jeez , some people treat it like it's ****ing batman and robin .....

I third this notion.

 

[DaRkVeNgeanCe]

i personally didnt think much of ANY of the spiderman films. seriously, im not a big spidey hater or anything i just thought even spiderman 2 seemed pretty pants.

Compared to batman begins, they seem even more amaturish! i saw spiderman 2 again recently and, well i didnt rate it that highly even when it came out but..man..time hasnt been kind to the spidey franchise... it was cringeworthy at times.

When the dark knight comes out the gaps gonna be even bigger i expect

theyre two COMPLETLY DIFFERENT kinds of films and characters. I still think SM2 is the best Marvel film made so far, with Iron Man and X2 right next to it!

COMPLETELY DIFFERENT? come on lmao they're both comic book super hero movies, involving a guy trying to keep 2 separate identities, who don a costume to try to remain anonymous..but i do admit that both films tell different stories, with begins concentrating on the origins of Batman and Spiderman 2 dealing more with peter parker finding it hard to juggle his duties of being spiderman and living his normal life.

One involving a kid bit by a radioactive spider who then aquires spider-like tendencies and fights crime with his super-natural powers, the other involving a wealthy traumatized man who merely creates a suit to fight crime.

 

[GlasgowBat]

merely?

besides, it seemed to me that fox made that suit.....

 

[Yurka]

You know what I mean.

 

[GlasgowBat]

i do. but i also enjoy being a pain.....

 

[Yurka]

lol, I like you.

 

[Schlosser85]

The Spider-Man movies are intended to be lighter in tone than Batman Begins/The Dark Knight.

i agree with what your saying both films have different stories but like i said, they do share the theme of a costumed hero fighting crime.. they are not 'COMPLETELY DIFFERENT' as someone said.

Im glad people are seeing the obvious!

 

[The Caped Knight]

Mr.J looks pissed .

 

[Beanjuice]

these promos need to be located asap

i believe this one is the one used for the why so serious poster

 

[Crook]

That first one is used in the recent banner, I believe. Only the second is the unseen promo art.

 

[Beanjuice]

not os much, different angle, different hair, that one is unseen too

 

[JokerCam]

hmm been thinking about this recently:

Michael Caine said in an interview that the joker only applies his make up once throughout the movie so i detreiates like his sanity as the movie goes on. If this is true, wouldn't his facial hair be noticeable after a while? very nit picky i know but just thought it was a bit of a flaw.

he was suffering from some pretty severe gunshot wounds...

Not a flaw, the Joker has shown Facial hair before? Check out the 'tache!

He has to put it on atleast twice, since

Spoiler

he takes off the make-up to pose as a cop

right?

 

[ronny]

Possibly. Or he may just apply fleshy make up over the white stuff and look incredibly ill and corpse like as a result. But in all the activity no one notices this cop with the discoloured face.

 

[Ragdoll0138]

maybe he can only grow a mexistache, preventing it from being seen
