I think Nolan will cut out scenes to make the Joker less "horrific" in honor of Heath.

I hope Nolan dont do something as stupid as that. And still, knowing Nolan, he is a perfectionist so he will not do anything like that.

What did Jack Nicholson meant by "I warned him"?

Apparently in the past, Jack Nicholson has spoken against the drug that Heath allegedly took (Ambien)

He also, wasn't referring _directly_ to Heath, as he had no clue in the clip I saw here.

He said it like a spokes person would say it to a group of people... 'well I told you so' kind of thing.

BS - totally disrespectful to the role Ledger created, and totally not in Nolan's style of directing - to mess with actors roles in such a way. He wanted a dark Joker - Ledger apparently delivered.

And as for Jack Nicholson - he warned Ledger that the role was AMAZINGLY demanding and can take the actor into a deep place. He also made a comment about the drug being used to aid the sleeping - not about Ledger's use of it.

Word is that Ledger delivered a role that is going to totally own the character. More of a "f*cked up psycho with a weird sense of humour" than a comical character. Nicholson did this to 90's levels, Ledger does it to 00's levels - a Joker for our age.

That said (and I do believe what is being said) - nobody is really going to talk ill of him right now!

The acting of Joker must be very very Involved for him to have trouble sleeping from the role!

Well look at the character its been completely reinvented and it looks really dark and scary so imagine going to work each day putting the make up on and involving yourself with the character and you would over time become the man.

SO AWESOME!!! CAN'T WAIT!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaIR9dAZRR0 Bale/Ledger Owns!!!

What rock have you been under :rofl: . But yea it's awesome.

I remember Jack Nicholson's joker died in the end...

Would be wierd if Heaths also dies in the end. :o

He won't die at the end. I still don't understand why Burton killed him off, stupid if you ask me.. :pinch:

Burton's Batman films continued very small plotlines - but were "one hit" stories. That's why he killed off Joker - audiences at the time expected clear endings.

Don't see how it would be "weird" if he died? Don't read too much into things.

But I doubt he will die - probably be left in Arkham, as the character still has value.

LOL, he get's like this - wetting his pants over whatever 5-minute fad. It's kinda sweet really :)

:laugh:

Yeah I would imagine they wouldn't kill him plus with Harvey Dent in the same film I would see 2face being important in the third.

Why repost the posters but anyway its a shame and wouldn't be surprised if the film is put back.

I said it was a bit Chilling... did you miss that?

Man, but I think I am confident that his acting as Joker will be very very good & praised now! It looks GOOD!!!

    • Password Safe 3.72.0

      By Copernic · Posted

      Password Safe 3.72.0 by Razvan Serea Password Safe is a password database utility. Like many other such products, commercial and otherwise, it stores your passwords in an encrypted file, allowing you to remember only one password (the "safe combination"), instead of all the username/password combinations that you use. Once stored, your user names and passwords are just a few clicks away. Using Password Safe you can organize your passwords using your own customizable references—for example, by user ID, category, web site, or location. You can choose to store all your passwords in a single encrypted master password list (an encrypted password database), or use multiple databases to further organize your passwords (work and home, for example). And with its intuitive interface you will be up and running in minutes. PasswordSafe was originally designed by the renowned security technologist Bruce Schneier and released as a free utility application. Password Safe 3.72.0 changelog: Fixed bugs Improved font scale handling - should resolve font size issues on high resolution displays. GH1749 In the Master Password Setup window, "Show Master Password" is no longer truncated on some displays. GH1092, SF1595 Size and position of main window is now correctly restored on scaled displays. SF1630 Keep password expiry date when both password and password expiry are changed; don't clear a non-recurring expiry when the password's changed. SF1628 Custom values can now be copied to the clipboard in read-only mode via Ctrl-C and right-click->Copy Value. New features GH1196 Dark display mode support: Password Safe now supports the system display mode, as well as setting the mode directly via Manage->Options->Display->Display Mode. This change also updates the general "look & feel" of the app to the current Windows theme. Known limitations: The Date picker and keyboard shortcut controls do not switch to dark theme The Customize Toolbar dialog does not switch to dark theme Custom Field support has been added to the more advanced features: Filters XML and Text import and export Comparison, Sync and Merge databases SF938 Custom field values may now be selected by name and copied via a "Copy Custom Field Value..." submenu in the entry context popup menu. SF936 Notes and Custom fields layout now overlap, selectable by tabs, resulting in a more compact and less cluttered layout. SF935 Autotype: Specifying '\v{name}' in the autotype text will cause the corresponding value to be autotyped.

    • Google DeepMind AI Control Roadmap: When Alignment Fails, Defense-in-Depth Takes Over

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      Google DeepMind published a document on June 18, 2026, that may be the most consequential admission yet from a frontier AI lab: alignment training alone cannot guarantee that AI agents will remain under human control, so structural containment must be built before more capable models arrive.............. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318758/20260620/google-deepmind-ai-control-roadmap-when-alignment-fails-defense-depth-takes-over.htm  
    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By Taliseian · Posted

      I've got a SoundBlasterX G6 that I use in my streaming setup. Sounds great to me and I've had zero issues with the ancient software package so far in Win11. That G6 has 7.1, Dolby, fully working SPDIF and since it's a USB device it's outside of my rig so I don't have to worry about EMF distortion. Looks like for now this is a pass for me as I think I have better hardware....
