So apparently, Jack Nicholson is "furious" because they didn't go to him for advice on how to play the Joker.
"They never asked me about a sequel with the Joker. I know how to do that! Nobody ever asked me," Nicholson said. "It's like, in any area, you can't believe the reasons things do or don't happen. Not asking me how to do the sequel is that kind of thing. Maybe it's not a mistake. Maybe it was the right thing, but to be candid, I'm furious." IGN: Holy Hong Kong Phooey! Didn't think he was that egotistical, as if he invented the Joker. |
I heard the new cartoon "The Batman" does improve in later seasons, but Joker is still pretty lame... Bring back Mark Hamill! And get rid of those damn dreadlocks!
Regarding the anime, hey, if the 90's animated series eventually became more and more darker, (Batman Beyond Return of the Joker uncut edition.)imagine the possiblities now that Kids WB isn't breathing on Bruce Timm's back, AND you add in Satoshi Kon to the mix! Plus three great animation studios to make it look good. I don't see why its a bad idea, unless people hate anime in general... It would take a major writing/direction screw up to make this into garbage, and so far Timm hasn't seem to falter at all, along with Satoshi Kon. As for ol' Jackie, Sour grapes anyone? Yeesh, he's acting like he's a thespian in the role or some shit. My respect for the man has plummet to a bottomless pit. |
It's hard to know if Nicholson is being serious with that quote... he is known for being pretty dry. If he was serious, I guess he didn't bother watching Batman Begins and doesn't understand it was a reboot of the franchise. It's not like Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer or even Adam West (LOL) are angry that Christian Bale didn't ask them for advice.

Awesome. It's a great poster.
I changed the text, though. |
Ah, didn't catch that before. Either way, yes, disgustingly good poster!
|
Indeed. I'm using it as my wallpaper right now. =)

Did you guys know that Two-Face is in this movie? Look at the casting list, Harvey Dent. He was played by Tommy Lee-Jones in Batman Forever.
Maybe Two-Face is the next villain in the sequel? |
I read an article somewhere (trying to find source) saying to watch him throughout the movie, because this is the only chance we'll have to see him as a person, and Nolan put a lot of time into developing the character.
It's likely he'll be the next villain, and I'm glad he's being developed in advance! Viral marketing FTW here! |
I heard rumours about the next sequel will be Batman vs Superman. Any thoughts about it? It was also an advertisment in the movie "I AM LEGEND" with Will Smith.

The concept of a Batman/Superman film has been kicked out a lot in the past few years, but I don't think any of them have ever gotten past the drawing board stages.
Justice League, however... Quote:

YouTube - Batman: Gotham Knight - First Look
Preview of Dark Knight's version of the Animatrix, coming out before the film on DVD, with animators like Bruce Timm and Satoshi Kon on board. This 9 mins preview is from the new Justice League New Frontier DVD animated movie from the creators of DC animated universe. |

Gotham Knight is coming out on July 8. source Also.. Batman Begins coming to Blu-ray on July 8 !! Quote:
Awesome! I was wondering when they were going to release Batman Begins on Blu-ray. ( Was this planned before the downfall of HD-DVD? ) I wish they'd release all this a lot sooner than a little over a week before The Dark Knight comes out. |

Leaked Two-Face pic!
Spoiler:
Man this is gonna be one effed up PG-13 film. |
That looks fake to me. Partly because of the graininess, but mostly because that looks like CGI and not makeup, and they're not going to just CGI half the man's face.
|
The pics's originally from CRB.com, a pretty respected and in the know site (they have some decent inside sources, though most of their best breaks have been about Batman comics, ie the skinny on Bruce Wayne's departure from the roll of Batman months before the Batman R.I.P. arc was announced).
Obviously, we'll see what happens. It could be a concept design, it could be a fan manip. |
Hmm, I'm voting "fake" as well. Seems too gruesome to me... Of course, I am used to the Animated Series version with the blue face, white hair & yellow eye. LOL. And the original picture of Eckhart would have turn to up in order to debunk it (like the fake Joker picture that was circulating around, everyone thought it was the real thing).
|
Well that might be it considering as in a recent article Eckhart was saying how gruesome and disgusting the Two-Face look will be and how shocked people will be when they see it.
""I can tell you that, basically, when you look at Two-Face, you should get sick to your stomach. Being the guy under all that, well, that was a lot of fun for me. It's like you would feel if you met someone whose face had pretty much been ripped off or burned off with acid. I can't talk about it beyond that because I don't want to give away too much of the plans by Chris." Source: Eckhart on Dark Knight's Two-Face - Superhero Hype! |
Interesting quote... If it is indeed the real deal, it's going to scare the crap out of all the really young kids that see the movie. LOL. Anyway, my general opinion is that anything's better than the pink Tommy Lee Jones makeup.
|
Awesome pic. I vote real, but early concept. This movie is going to be pushing the PG-13 rating to the fucking limit, and I love it.
Oh ye gods... What I wouldn't give for an R-rated Batman film... |
I could understand why that guy went crazy after that.
God this movie looks promising. |
I originaly was not looking forward to seeing another joker.. If any one remembers the batman movies of the 1990s they might remember the first two were pretty serious with out going overboard, once Michael keton was gone they became campy..
Batman begins was great so hey I'm sure the late mr heath leger can pull this off. The reviews are good!! |
