The dark knight trailer (new batman movie)
Dartful Dodger:
I wonder if they are going to rewrite the script and Brandon Lee a new ending so that joker dies.
Howard_Casto:
Well it's a same the man is dead and I sincerely mean that, but the movie, as well as his final performance looks like crap to me. I don't think filming is done yet and seeing how it's impossible to do a re-write (writers strike) this film might get canned indefinately. Imho this could only be a good thing as this film looks to be crap much like batman begins was crap.
I'm sick and tired of writers/directors/ect "re-imagining" batman characters. Let me put it this way... the ONLY person who can get away with that crap is tim burton, mainly because he is insainely talented. Every batman film except 1 and 2, which he did, has been crap. The joker wears purple and is a clown... he's not some emo crow wanna-be. The fact that such a dark and sinister character goes around in cheery outfits throwing about bad puns is what makes him interesting and compelling. Likewise, the contrast is what makes him scary. It looks like they are just trying too hard to give the old clown an edge, which he already had, it just requires good acting ability to portray it.
I find it tragically ironic that ledger commited suicide portraying a character that looks like the crow at 28 while Brandon lee accidentally killed himself during the "suicide scene" on the set of the crow on his 28th birthday in full "clown" makeup.

Probably don't need to.
From NY Post:
"He recently wrapped filming on 'The Dark Knight,' the sequel to 'Batman Begins,' in which he plays the villainous Joker."
Doh, didn't realize he was supposed to be in the next film as well.
Sir Auros:
Casto, have you ever read a Batman comic? I mean, since the 1970's?
Batman Begins was closer to the modern Batman than anything by Burton.
somunny:
Sorry to rain on your Burton love-fest but the 1989 Batman simply doesn't stand the test of time. It was great when it was released but by today's standards, seems as campy as the 60's TV series.
