The Dark Knight - Batman Movie #2 - WickedFire - Affiliate Marketing Forum

Finally.. a semi-Summer movie that looks like it's going to fucking pwn!

The Dark Knight is the next chapter in the new Batman Begins saga.

Heath Ledger is playing Joker, and just from the trailer, his makeup and character looks fucking brilliant. He seriously reminds me of a serial killer lunatic type, but with a Hannibal Lecter edge (although nowhere near as graceful and terrifying). This puts all of those other lame Batman movies to shame... finally.

I definitely like this series better than the movie series from the 80's. Less "cartoonish" and more focused on the dark psychology of the main characters.

Frank Miller really took the comics genre one notch higher when he took over Marvel's Daredevil title in the late 70s. Comics haven't been the same since. In a way, he just extended Stan Lee's innovations in the genre--originally, comic book heroes were 'perfect'. This made them quite shallow and increasingly hard to identify with. Come the 1960's, Stan Lee introduced the "hero with angst" concept--almost all his characters had a "tragic flaw". This made them more "real". They became "heroes" which people living in a stressed out modern culture could identify with. Frank Miller takes this "cult of identification" one step further--he delves into modern psychology (with all its conflicts and stresses) and comes up with a new definition of "hero."

This reinvention of longstanding "hero" franchises also extends to the James Bond franchise. Daniel Craig's version of Bond marks a clean and dramatic break from Roger Moore, T Dalton, and Pierce Brosnan's version.

Heath Ledger is a pansy but was a good pick for the joker because he actually looks like the comic character.

But Jack Nicholson is going to be one tough fucking act to follow.

emp · 01-19-2008, 04:57 PM

Yes, Yes, YEEES!

Batman begins was already a step in the right direction, THIS is gonna rock.

thank god they ditched katie holmes for this movie. now it has the potential to really be perfect.

Pheelix · 01-21-2008, 03:44 AM

The new Batman-version is great. Bale is the best Batman so far. Can't wait to see the new movie. The trailer looks promising.

why so serious? who does do?

nickycakes · 01-21-2008, 10:50 AM

i saw the trailer last night and got goosebumps
looks like its gonna be the shit...

ECSuite_Russell · 01-21-2008, 12:36 PM

I still can't get over heath ledger as the joker, it's not a role I ever would have imagined him in. When I saw the preview I could barely recognize him, or his voice.

IronLogik · 01-21-2008, 01:12 PM

^
i was skeptical about him also, before i saw the trailer. when i saw the darker more deranged spin that they put on the character, it all made sense.

jack nicholson's joker was great: zany and homicidal. this interpretation looks much darker and more violent. he looks completely psychotic.

droplister · 01-21-2008, 02:55 PM

I cant wait for this movie, i don't like comic book adaptations, but really enjoyed the other batman they made recently.

jared · 01-21-2008, 03:07 PM

I automatically doomed this movie in my mind when I found out the villain was being played by Heath Ledger. I just find it hard to take him seriously after all man-on-man shit he did in Brokeback.

However, after watching the trailer all skepticism has been erased from my mind. Previously gay or not, he looks like he is going to turn out to be a bad ass joker. Topping Jack will be hard but from the clips I've seen he definitely has potential.

Can't wait. A movie that might actually be worth paying to see :o

geekcognito · 01-22-2008, 04:45 PM

Hm. Well, this movie has certainly kicked off to a rather morbid start. Heather Ledger was found dead in his apartment today.
