Jul 17 2007More, Better Looks at Joker
Yes, someone has gotten slightly closer to the set of The Dark Knight and grabbed even more shots of the anticipated villain. Until Warner Bros. supplies us with the quality and quantity of pictures expected from Sears Portrait Studio, expect more of the same. This one gives a better idea of the costume and the manner in which Joker requests sexual favors.
In addition, this Chicago Fox affiliate nabbed some additional Joker footage where he's standing around. I won't be happy until someone gets a "nip slip."

he looks more like those first pictures of the joker that came out, and less like the second one that was supposed to be official (with the white makeup and red mouth and scars).
i liked the other way better.

It would be really cool if they had a Bob character like from the 89 Batman and it was Jake "I wish I knew how to quit you..." Gyllenhal and they could gay it up as the bad homo version of batman and robin.
Oh well, I guess we would need Joel Schumacher for that.
Frown.

Only Ledger could make a pixelated and blurry shot of himself look timelessly cool.

I don't think it's Heath Ledger. Neither is the other guy in these 3 videos. Filming the Joker skating around the block, wtf?? Chris Nolan's pulling our legs.

I guess I'll have to take back all the terrible things I said about the Joker's look because he looks pretty damn cool in this shot. Now all I can hope is they changed the stupid origin they had planned for him originally.
8. Rick - July 23, 2007 2:58 PM
what origin are you talking about?

I thik a lot of people are gonna be surprised by Heath Ledger! I hear everyone saying "He'll never be as good as Jack Nicholson!" Who do you have to compare that to...Cesar Romero?? I'm kinda sick of hearing it. Give the guy a chance. When I heard Micheal Keaton was playin Batman I laughed, but most concider him the best Batman(i'm goin with Bale myself).
11. Rick - July 26, 2007 5:31 PM
you're crazy dude! the face that Micheal Keaton puts on as Batman, along w/ the voice and the way he was mysterious about it, overtakes Bale's Batman. I'll agree w/ that Bale is a better Bruce Wayne, but never a better Batman than Micheal Keaton. ......my opinion

Don't get me wrong, I loved Keaton as Batman...I just like Bale better. My point was, that you never know until you actually see Ledger as the Joker. He might just blow Nicholsons Joker outta the water. He's sure as hell creepier lookin the the previouse Jokers. I also think Crispin Glover would have made an excellent Joker!
