+Majesticmerc MVC Posted March 24, 2009 MVC Share Posted March 24, 2009 there is already talk that they might recast the joker. just because he died does not mean the character needs to. :blink: Very true, but Ledger's Joker is quite a high benchmark. I wouldn't want the job (aside from the monies) out of respect and not making the Joker look bad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't want the job (aside from the monies) out of respect and not making the Joker look bad! there's a thread about it over at superherohype. it's also a possibility they may try some form of cgi to have heaths face. sort of like they did with brandon lee in the crow. i don't think joker will play a "huge" role in the next batman, if there even is one?

Dick Montage Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 It's certainly do-able. Heck they did it years ago on Gladiator. Plus as most comic fans know - a "persona" can change from person to person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lamp0 Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 I doubt we will see Joker again in Nolans Batman. But there's no doubt we will see him in someone else's interpretation of Batman. I'd love to see Darren Aronofsky do as he was supposed to do one before Nolan did Batman Begins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lqv2015 Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Replacement maybe. CGI? Definitely no. If it's completely CGI, it takes away the greatness of a real actors. If it uses Heath unused footage, then the Joker's acting/screen time/story is only limited to what is available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless it's a quick explainantion of how he's forgotten. This isn't the Scarecrow we're talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well Nolan will only probably do one more. But a Batman film with a new director doesn't have to be a direct "sequel" or a complete "reboot". Nor would it require a direct sequel follow up.

Xero Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 As much as I love the character and how much more they could have done with him. I hope they don't reuse him. Heath's performance was a masterpiece. Not saying no one could top it, but you don't wanna downplay his role. It will be the role he'll be remembered by. However I do see the problem with him being alive at the end of the film. A quick cameo type deal to wrap up the character wouldn't work. I think I'd prefer if it were set years later and the Joker escaped and hadn't been seen. If they did recast him, it would take away from the movie as throughout it everyone would be comparing him to Heath. Nolan will do one more and then I think they will have a different take on Batman. I doubt Bale would return for a fourth. I'm happy with a trilogy can't expect them to make tons of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they definitely shouldn't milk the franchise like they do with a lot [read: most] films nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xero Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Yea the first 2 were epic. I rank them quite high on my favorite movies, but like Majestic said, I'm hungry for more. One more would be just right. Same goes for Bond, I hope they make it a trilogy. I wanna see what happens with Mr. White dammit! It doesn't have to be better than Dark Knight, I just love what Nolan does with Batman. His universe for it is so incredible, it could be Batman learning how to play Xbox and it would still be ****ing sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

curme Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 (edited) I finally saw TDK a couple of weeks ago and thought it was boring. "Batman Begins" was better IMHO. Where was the FBI when all of these banks were getting robbed? And I didn't find the two-faced guy's transformation into a bad guy very believable. There really didn't seem to be any compelling motivation or reason for him to go nuts like that. It wasn't very well written.

I don't think The Dark Knight is a boring film, or that it's better than Batman Begins. But I do agree with some of your other points. It seems "realistic" in many ways, but then unrealistic in others. I also don't think the pacing was always that great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
