It showed a real Joker without all the comedy and jokes, and while it is part of what made the Joker great it work even better without in the Dark Knight.


Agreed. The joker in the Nolan's film was perfect, because we were made to believe it could happen in reality. When I think of comic book joker, I think more of a dark, twisted, psycho than than a "jokester." It's for that reason that villains such as clayface, man-bat, killer croc, (and probably mr freeze and poison ivy) wouldn't work.

You guys need to check out Bronson if you haven't yet. I have a feeling Tom Hardy can pull off playing a guy who can open up a can of whoop --- on Batman.

Never saw it. Obviously I saw Hardy in Inception (like most of us), and it's hard to transition him from that character to Bane.

Watch Bronson and compare that character to his performance in Inception. You'll be shocked. Hardy has some skills.

+1 to "Bronson". Awesome flick. Put in on your netflix queue.

Oh no... this is where they always go wrong with Batman movies (besides a batmobile with pink neons)... they try to cram too many villains into one movie. That destroys proper character development and clutters the story.

They must have given up after Ledger died, knowing they'll never top his character.

I think that is definitely where they got it wrong with the last spider man.

Agreed. They had to cram so much in it felt like key events were left on the cutting room floor.

The reboot of Spiderman might be good but who knows.

Yeah, a reboot might be good, but doing it so soon is like saying "hey guys, sorry we ****** up the spider man franchise and don't know what we're doing"

".. we were really just milking the cashcow with the last two movies and we figure a reboot will bring up ticket sales for at least the next two. Sorry."

:shrug: imdb is generally the only ones I consider with any credibility http://www.the370z.com/members/frost...046t-shrug.gif

Now, if you want bad rumors I hope get squashed:
'The Dark Knight Rises' may add Joseph Gordon-Levitt to the cast. Start speculating: Hugo Strange? Riddler? Robin? | PopWatch | EW.com
