Batman: The Dark Knight Rises

Wanna see a magic trick?

Heath's Joker was sooo good.

TDK's Joker was really over-the-top-- a mash-up of nearly every bad thing Joker's attempted in his comic book existence. Ledger's performance beats everyone else, but Hamill isn't far behind.

That is the most awesome picture ever, Yeller.

It's a shop.

Heath's joker was incredible, alive or dead.

Heath's joker ... was fantastic.

Heath's Joker was sooo good.

word. I see your point, he might be a little close to The Joker, but if Goyer/Nolan did it correctly. They will be able to differentiate him from The Joker quite well.

Mad Hatter is WAY too close to Joker to even be considered IMO. Insane guy with a appetite for grandiose plans in a child-oriented costume? Too close.

I always thought that Neil Patrick Harris would play the best Riddler, he is a small, witty, non fighting smart ass. He would be perfect for that role or so I think. I would love to see Killer Croc turn up in one of these movies and they could always Introduce Harley Quinn into the movies, could have her doing errands for the Joker or something. They wouldn't have to actually show him, but just have his presence there. Oh and More Mr. Freeze please!

Killer Croc is a great comic book villain. But how do you work them in to Nolan's Batworld? It's impossible. There aren't any super strength mutants so far in the world. Just skilled, insane martial artists or anarchists who use show to intimidate (including batman himself). Thinking about it, the article Advocate originally quoted mentioned Nolan's Batman didn't have any hi-tech unrealism... yet what the fuck was that bat sonar from the end of The Dark Knight? That was unrealistic tech.

Every other movie or TV show has super villains that make sense in some other reality, his joker could have existed in our world. No bullshit, realistic looking outfit, realistic looking make up and crazy in the real sort of way. It was fantastic. Fuck all ya'll.

No he couldn't have. But the skillful direction of Nolan made it SEEM plausible. Which is why he's probably the best director in the world right now. Seriously - he blew up a hospital with enough explosives arm a small nation. He also had a clairvoyant knowledge of how events would unfold, including the way cars would turn (on which roads). I loved both of the new Batman's (I don't have the hate on Josh and Yeller do) because I was able to suspend my disbelief (except for the roof fall - that made zero sense as to how they survived). But they aren't "realistic".

You know what would make for a confusing and hilarious movie? Professor Pyg.

(except for the roof fall - that made zero sense as to how they survived).

The screenplay explains what happened in that scene. Batman activated the cape's glider, and he kind of spiraled down to break the fall-- with Batman absorbing the impact. That scene made no sense until I read the script (honestly, it still doesn't). I'm not a fan of Nolan's editing.

EDIT: And to clarify, I prefer the Joker from BTAS over TDK.

Lots of this. There is plenty of nonsense shit that happens but the suspension of disbelief manages to hold.
