The Dark Knight Well....this is intresting? (Joker news)

Joker in a small role ? WOW that blows

So much depression in the forums. What the hell did you people expect? Godamn, man. Sheesh, the movie about freakin Batman for crying out loud, no villian is going to have a huge role. The Joker will have a role to play and as I said before, we'll probabley see more of his handiwork than the man himself. Which is going to be awesome and make The Joker mysterious and frightining. It'll be truthful to the comics, so chill.

Plus things change in Hollywood. Nolan may write the part as being small, then WB may say 'Damn you Nolan! Make it bigger!" That's when Nolan roundhouse kicks the CEO of WB and Nolan gets what he wants...

 

[Boom]

Actually, I withdraw my previous comment:

That's my Joker right there.

No,Joker and Batman is a rivalry built on equal footing,Joker isn't some mob boss that sits in the background
If your happy with this possible small role then fine but don't tell everyone else how they should feel

 

[Mr. Socko]

Amen Hunter! If Joker has a small stupid role I'll disown this movie. But I hope this is all one big stupid rumor. WB will keep Nolan in line, and WB knows the Joker sells.

Hey Boom, who's that?

 

[Boom]

Hey Boom, who's that?

Josh Lucas, one of my favorite actors.

That first photo. Picture him with chalk white skin, dark red lips, slicked back green hair, and dressed in an Alex Ross tuxedo.

*Drool*

josh lucas would be great. he'd be a choice out of nowhere... established... but the stuff he's done is not really joker stuff. like romantic comedies. i'd love to see him try on the role for size.

 

[Babs Gordon]

wasn't he rumored for dent though?

 

[Boom]

I see where you're coming from, but personally I wouldn't be worried about it. The guy has fantastic range as an actor.

wasn't he rumored for dent though?

Yes, but remember, Cillian Murphy originally wanted to be Batman, and was offered Crane instead. Lucas might be offered the Joker role instead of Dent. Just wishful thinking on my part.

You sound like you in love with him Boom

He's a decent actor from what ive seen and not typecast so he can play a diverse role without someone labeling him

 

[The Fallen]

Who knows what's gonna happen? Nolan works in mysterious ways...

 

[Boom]

Well I won't make an avatar, personal title, and signature dedicated to him, unlike another member who shall remain nameless .

 

[Mr. Socko]

Lol. Nolan could change the plans anyday. Pre production for Batman 2 has not even started yet.

 

[Rynan]

Oop, Missed.

 

[Mr. Socko]

Well if you want to go that far then why not ever show the Joker, till the last 5 minutes. He can do mysterious murders and they can show his face the last 5 minutes when Batman finds him

Name a Batman comic where Joker is the main villian and he wasn't focused on or shown as much as Batman...

 

[Hunter Rider]

. Also, if you remember, the post said not to take "Small and Mysterious" as a cameo. I think he'll have a role, like Scarecrow and Ra's. And I'm content with that.

Thats fine but i and many others are not,Joker is a character who i feel needs to be reintroduced and not some random killer,dialogues between Joker and Batman are part of their rivalry and they need to interact with each other in order to capture that essence

 

[The Fallen]

I think the 'rivaly' thing can happen. As the Joker does his thing (killing ect), Batman will have a increasingly more difficult time trying to figure out who the Joker is and why he does what he does. Slowly Batman will start to go well... baty and this life as Bruce Wayne will suffer as a concequence. Bruce will be preocupied with the Joker. It can work.

 

[Mr. Socko]

The Joker is Batman's GREATEST threat. He needs to be shown ALOT in the movie, confrontations with Batman, show him killing other people, fighting Batman, etc

 

[Hunter Rider]

Well I won't make an avatar, personal title, and signature dedicated to him, unlike another member who shall remain nameless .

Heh so no "_______" for Joker Damnit! sigs for you then ?

 

[The Fallen]

Well the Joker is rumored to be on trial in the third, so we can assume that Batman catches him, and the Joker will put up a fight...

 

[Mr. Socko]

I'd much rather The Joker on trial at the end of Batman 2, throws acid in Harveys face, then escapes from Arkham in Batman 3.

Oh look more denial.

 

[Boom]

No. I'll just freely express my desire for him to land the role .

Man, to me, this sound awesome. Seeing less of Joker makes him so much scarier... John Doe of SE7EN is one of the best villains in film history, and he was barely in it. We saw his handiwork, we felt his presence. Imagine the Joker being a shadow, a laugh in the dark. Build and build until he's in the spotlight.
