I trust Christopher Nolan's direction of the series. Batman Begins is easily my favorite superhero/comic book movie(right up there with the spiderman series).

I'm sure they auditioned tons of actors for the role, and they must've seen something in Heath that they liked, I'm psyched!

Now for them to cast Harvey Dent. There are a lot of actors in the running for that role as well.

Jude Law, Guy Pierce, Hugh Jackman, Jack Gylnnhall.

I agree with the opinion on Jack, but I did like Batman Begins on its own. I think Batman and Batman Returns were awesome movies with some great acting.

justinag06

Bumpage of the batman thread so no one can do a 180 on the Joker/Heath Leadger in the new film.

I have been following the news about it's production and first off some major casting news you might already know

Arron Eckheart as Harvey Dent
Maggy Gylnnhall is replacing Katie Holmes as Rachel Dawes



[spoilerbf640a353b]It also appears the main basis for the storyline is from the comic The Long Halloween, and Batman Year One look it up on wikipedia if you are interested to see more.[/spoilerbf640a353b]

Also some casting sides were released today for the film, and they show off the Joker in a few scenes. Sides are short script scenes posted so people can audition for the minor roles in the film.

Judging from the minor plot details, and dialog it looks like they are going to blow away the first movie and give the Joker the portrayal he truly deserves.

spoilers abound if you click on[=http//mirandafox.livejournal.com/]click on.

the names have been changed to try and hide the plot but it looks like these are the major players included in the sides.

Chief - Gordon
Gannon - Dent
Avenger - Batman
Kennedy - Wayne
Prisoner/Voice/Masked Thug - Joker
[spoilerbf640a353b]
looks like the scarecrow is returning also. I'm also guessing the Lau character is the Black Mask, an arms dealer to The Joker and the Mob. Judging from a quick read of this it looks like we have a pretty complex plot with Mobsters vs Freaks(jokers gang) vs Police vs Batman vs Vigilantes

on the joker, his appearance and the character in general
The rumors suggest that the joker is going to be deformed/scared to give himself a scar. Maybe like the Black Dahlia. Also the character is not going to have a comedic sense to him, he is going to be a dark sinister psychopath. A comic book's artists conception of how the joker might look in the film

I was semi-surprised, but Heath not only lived up to the hype but blew it out of the fucking water. I feel bad because Aaron Eckhart/Two Face seemed really boring, but the more I think about it the more I think it was because the Joker was so fucking great. And then I think about how it seemed like Christian Bale, Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, and Maggie Gyllenhall all seemed barely there, though again I think because of Heath.

Yeah I dont know, didn't really like gyllenhall. I know a ton of people didnt like Katie Holmes in the movie to begin with, and that now everyone hates her because of Tom Cruise, but I actually liked her in the role better. I would've rather her reprised the role, but I know that no one would have taken her seriously so I guess it wouldn't have worked. Plus I dont think Tom would've let her.

Not only that, but goddamn I saw the best preview reel I've seen to date, today.
