The Dark Knight The man who laughs: The Joker thread

[Art Damage]

I remember seeing that god awful movie in the theaters and the Goombas actually scared the **** out of me...well...except the part where they started dancing with each other. For some reason, Goombas were the first thing I though of. Heh heh.

How about that Mole Man from FF '94?

 

[CaptainClown]

dude that movie is awesome!
SUpermario bros = best video game movie ever


ask me why





because it has nothing to do with the game!

I wonder if THE JOKER says "Slaughter is the best medicine" @ The Gotham General Hosptial before he blows it up .

Some Saturday morning cartoon show producer is going to see that and get the wrong idea some day...

This may be thinking ahead but does anybody else love the special features and the "background" stories of how things are created on those like two-disc 'collector's sets' of DVDs when they come out? That was the initial reason I bought the three disc set when Spider-Man 3 came out...just so I could watch a special feature about how they came up with thier version of Venom.

I hope whenever TDK comes out on DVD (by Halloween next year I bet...like BB did) we get a lot of cool features on the Joker.

I bet they would even include all the viral fun we've had...

Ledger's Joker strikes me as remiscent of these three:

Lee Bermejo

Frank Miller

and Dave McKean

 

[Cagefighterkip]

definately Lee Bermejo

 

[rogue trooper]

definately Lee Bermejo

I see the carved smile of Lee Bermejo, the subtle, more serious facial expressions of Frank Miller, and the long hair, the messy make-up(or white skin) and creepy hands of McKean.

they pulled the best of the joker in there, i can see where yer seeing other artists, but in the creepiness and realism of it, i see bermejo...

Sorry to be a bugger, but i'm about to tell someone information about the 'bomb in thug' scene. I just wanted to know if this was indeed legit or if it was just a lie.

this wont prove whether or not its legit, but; all ive heard from people on these boards and at the local comic shop is that it is legit. but only time will tell...

Ah. true true. I'll keep it safe and keep my mouth shut, then

 

[ColourDeaf]

All I have to say is this

"It's all a joke! Everything anybody ever valued or struggled for... it's all a monstrous, demented gag! So why can't you see the funny side? WHy aReN'T yoU LauGhINg?!"

That's what his joker says to me

I have to agree with that.

Except for McKean's Joker. I don't recall him really having messy hair. It looked like classic Joker hair, but just very elongated and over exagerated.

But his hands sure did scare the crap out of me.

lolt:

(I can't wait to see Action Figures of Heath Joker)

As long as they never, ever go the Frank Miller route with the goons, I'm good. Honestly.

You mean you don't want a chick with nazi-boobs serving a dragon-tattooed Joker who kills the random drunk/drugged women he brings home to bone?

Why? I thought that was totally in theme with Joker's comedy. Plus, *******!

DAMN STRIAGHT

Also is that suppose to be Boss Maroni

I can do wihout that first part, but the latter certainly looks interesting. It's about time they show a Joker with some sex drive. Always thought it'd provide for some creepy moments. Besides, that druggie looks hot.

god whats wrong w/frankmiller nowadays? he was sooo good... but now, that last joker issue was appaling.

My fave Joker pic!

mmmh, that speggetti is looking really good right now With buttered garlic bread....

Really?

You can't look at his work as canon.

ASBAR is pure gold in my eyes. I havent laughed so hard reading a comic,especially a caped superhero comic, in a long time.

The way batman talks, the way he fights. The Joker being a sadistic sexual super killer, i mean its hilarious.

I urge evryone to go and read it (at least for free on the internet) and have a good time.

The Key: you can't read it and think this is nolan's, morrisons', oneal's batman.

This is the GodDamn batman!

 

[Afrigginhobbit]

Anyone know why, the the trailer, why the joker is wearing a trash bag when he's talking to Loeb saying "WHY SO SERIOUS??"

If its something major or really really spoilerish, though we are on a spoiler board, dont tell me. Just say thats it's major. Im trying to not have a lot of this movie spoiled. But im not going in blind like the non-spoilers board people =D
