Gauge Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 The sequal to the latest batman movie is comming out in 2008 and i am excited to say that the joker is going to be in this one! Now the cast will be much the same as the first with Christian Bale, Michael Cain, Morgan Freeman, and Gary Oldman, the only question is, who should play the joker? Every fan site i have been to seem to list off their picks for the role, anyone from Heath Ledger, Robin Williams, Johnny Depp, Lachy Hulme, Jude Law, Adrien Brody, the list just goes on, some good some very very bad. Next (and obvious question for those of you who know me) who will play Harley? Some people say shes to animated to be in this series and others feel if she was gothed out a little more she could fit right in, others still (like me) are hopeful that if nothing else Dr. Quinzel will make an appearance. After all, with Dr. Crane beeing put away Arkham is going to need a new head and who better to fill it than her. This would allow her to be written into the 3rd movie where we will finally be able to see her change into Harley. Finally what are your opinions on Harvey Dent, once gothams district attorney turned insane crime boss two-face? Consider before choosing the appearance, attitude and overall composition of the character. Obviously with technology there gonna be able to fuck with things but what fun is that. With that said, here are my opinions on the subject. Harley Pauley Perette- Shes got the facial structure perfect for Harley, not to mention the innocent eyes and smile that turn her from a sex kitten to the cutest of hench wenches. We already know she can pull of beeing a blonde and she looks killer in pig tails and a white coat The only things i can see beeing a problem for her are her height (Harley is suppose to be 5'3'' but i think as long as shes shorter than whoever is playing Mistah J it should work) and her voice. They may also have to pull a tomb rader (i.e. boobs and a little more booty) to give her the curvyness) She doesnt quite have that New York high pitches sqeaky cuteness that harley does but maybe she can work on that. Brittany Murphy- While i dont personally like her as an actress i think she could add a lot to the character of harley. For starters shes closer to the right height (from my limited knowledge anyway) and is closer to the voice. Shes already a blond and with a little facial training could have the smile, not to mention shes also got the right shaped face. The accent shouldnt be a problem (anyone remember cluelss?) and shes got the cute bubbly personality that harley needs. Theses are the closest to what ive found for my Harley picks. Joker- for me theres only one choice to play the joker - Paul Bettany. Not only does he have the look, his voice is nearly spot on and hes nicely demented already. OOOOHHHH AND HE LOOKS DREAMY IN THE PURPLE SUIT! I cant say one bad thing about this guy, hes got it all for the role. Two-Face- No ideas as of yet. anyone care to share? I wouldve posted pics to show but the site is beeing a bitch and wont let me =(
Scary Guy Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 I'm in agreement with the Britney Murphy thing. Joker should be Steve Buscemi who can pull off funny and psycho at the same time. Then again he's probably too old... so in all reality I don't have a clue who should play him as I hate most of the actors of this generation. Who ever it is, Mark Hamill WILL have to voice over the dialouge, or at least the laughing part.
n0Mad Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 Actual height means a lot in theatre, a little bit in television, but absolutely nothing in movies. It's really easy to force perspective.
DJ Nocker Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 FIRST OFF NO ONE will be better than jack nicolson. 2ND If Jonny depth were to off been cast as the joker it would have sucked becuase he cant play any other role than a boring stoner like character. he isnt the type of person to play the joker.

Mark's voice just had everything from the fluctuations in the vocals to the high pitch tone etc... You're spot on about Johnny though. Carot top should play the Joker, how bout that? lol
phee Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 Jack Nicholson really was good, but he wasn't great. Mark's voice just had everything from the fluctuations in the vocals to the high pitch tone etc... In sooooo much agreement... Jack was Good.... but he wasn't frightening enough
Head Wreck Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 allways thought my ex would make a good harley. got the body and curves (but her hieght is a dissadvantage), and prone to psychotic behaviour as well as the way she is. giggling away in varying tones rather psychotically, even when she's trying to speak, and breathe in. did i say she was psycho too?
Gauge Posted August 5, 2006 Author Posted August 5, 2006 OFFICIAL Heath Ledger has been cast as the Joker <{POST_SNAPBACK}> im assuming your going off of imdb. if thats the case dont trust it. its been OFFICIALLY about 5 different people since about 5 months ago. from what i understand no ones gonna know till the trailers come out

Gauge Posted August 31, 2006 Author Posted August 31, 2006 OFFICIAL Heath Ledger has been cast as the Joker it was just released as official less than a week ago. . .and it ruined my whole friggen day
Gauge Posted August 31, 2006 Author Posted August 31, 2006 dont think i can. . .that was the one thing i was soooooooooo looking forward to in 08 and now its probably the biggest dissapointment. hes such a tool
Slept with ghost Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 to be honest i dont think there should be a second movie at all batman begins was great and a sequel qould just ruin it its not needed because batman has been around for years so we already know what is going to happen so why bother?

Everyone knows the story of Batman (if they don't they need to read more) and I figured the preequel took place before Joker and everything in the first Batman movie in the current series happened (which technically it did). So the next movie is a REMAKE of the first one, technically. Personally I'd like to see a non animated Batman Beyond movie made. The animated one was good, but I was unhappy with how they changed the ending to make it kid safe on Cartoon Network.

DarkVampire Posted September 5, 2006 Posted September 5, 2006 All I have to say is bring back Tim Burton.
phee Posted September 5, 2006 Posted September 5, 2006 All I have to say is bring back Tim Burton. I know that this is Blasphomey on a Goth Board.... but Batman Begins by Chris Nolan.... Totally beat the shit out of Tim Burtons Batman flicks
Gauge Posted September 5, 2006 Author Posted September 5, 2006 I know that this is Blasphomey on a Goth Board.... but Batman Begins by Chris Nolan.... Totally beat the shit out of Tim Burtons Batman flicks i hate to say it but i completely agree. this time around it was without a doubt the closest of any of the movies to the comics. not to mention it was so dark and so close to the comics but completely realistic at the same time. like you could go to ny and actually see batman fighting crime! ok so im a geek but really this was my fav

Homicidalheathen Posted September 5, 2006 Posted September 5, 2006 I don't think the role was 'edgy' enough for him. In sooooo much agreement... Jack was Good.... but he wasn't frightening enough
mallochai Posted September 6, 2006 Posted September 6, 2006 I'm way too late on all of this as it is... but my two cents... Crispin Glover would have made a great Joker. He's fucking psychotic.
