Two new Batman Dark Knight Posters

Michael: … Third, Gary Oldman makes the best damn Gordon ever, right out of Batman Year One!

Ronando: - I agree. I think Oldman’s a good choice, but primarily only based on Year One Batman, but he needs to have white hair and white stash in order to be the commissioner in future flicks.  Overall… even with my jaded cynicism I’m very pleased with Ledger as The Joker.

Yes, I HATED JACK NICHOLSON as the joker. That’s right. I said it.

1. He was fat.Â
2. He wasn’t the joker.
3. Everyone in their friggin mind was nuts to like him, except you of course you… you can like him. He wasn’t scary. He was too much into the costume. But that’s not his fault, stupid whatshisname’s fault… Burton! That freak. That necrophiliac freak has some sort of love affair with dead people. Just look at his work.

Freeman as Lucius Fox is ok.  Though Fox is a bit younger in real life… but I like Morgan, yet … he just doesn’t nail it. Something’s lacking in his performance as Fox, but that’s alright since Fox’s a background character and we’re lucky to even have any part of the comics in these damn movies with all of the artistic licensing that’s going around in their production.

Bale is good as Bruce Wayne, good as Batman… no complaints there. But… the uniform… it’s a stretch. Nolan is taking a more practical stance on Batman. They have created their own universe, they aren’t following the comics when it comes to the uniform and the batmobile.

See… there are two ways the movie gods can do this. One is that they can follow the comics and stick to tradition, to a certain extent and yes.. yellow spandex on Hugh Jackman would never ever work. Or, they can launch from the comics and go their own route, which is at the risk of pissing off comic enthusiasts. We go to the friggen superhero movies expecting to see the comics brought to life, and whatthehelldoweget? Some necrophiliac’s interpretation of a superhero with stupid, idiot BOMBS in the Batmobile’s hubcaps. Idiots. Yes, I’m talking about the stupid 1989 Michael I’m not Batman Keaton movie.

Batman Dark Knight is having it both ways. They take what they want and…  in fact they all want it both ways (can you say friggen organic webshooters??), so they take what they want which is

1. A Batman name and lookÂ
2. The jokerÂ
3. Supporting cast and location i.e. Gordon and Fox and Pennyworth in Gotham
4. and a skeletal outline of a story, i.e. Batman traumatized billionaire boy fights crime with an eye towards techno fashion and emo capes.
5. Then whatthehelldotheydo?? They then add in their own shit to make it transition, in their opinion, into the real world. i.e. The Tumbler (which is acceptable) 2) electo – cape… (which is… acceptable only because the cape is a kind of a mystery in the first place. We never really know much about it in the comics. In fact, I only read once where Batman had the ends weighted with something to be used as a weapon when he swung it around.  Friggin ripped open a guys nose when he did that. I loved it) 3) body armor, 4) trained by ninjas 5)… guns! Someone tell Nolan that Batman isn’t supposed to use guns. Even in Year One.

So, Nolan and every other superhero movie maker wants to recreate their own univers. Stupid.Â

HERE’S AN EXAMPLE OF SOMEONE MAKING A MOVIE WHILE STICKING TO THE COMICS
The guy’s name is Sandy Collora. And he’s done the best job so far in depicting Batman.

Michael:Â I don’t mind the changes from the comic books anymore. You know why? Because nothing - absolutely nothing in comics - is or ever HAS been “bible”. It’s an illusion.

Look at the original Batman. F—er carried a gun in the 40’s when he started!! That’s where they got the idea from now. Every decade or so the character chagnes w/ the times. It’s evolving mythology - what you remember of Batman is probably the 70’s version and that’s cannon to you but not to anyone else. We all come in that way - ie Hal Jordan is/was the best Green Lantern ever, always will be but guys from the 80’s think Gardner is great and the 90’s, Kyle Raynor. It’s whatever you are exposed to first.

It’s evolving mythology. As long as they keep it smart and thought-out —- I mean you can’t tell me seriously that Bob Kane wouldn’t have Batman wearing battle armour if he knew it existed. It wasn’t an option when the character was created.

Think of it this way - the characters are not just characters, they are myths. Myths are ideals, they teach us to embrace ideas and ideals we have/we need, and they need to adapt it to the times.

BTW I used to like the original Batman by Burton - and it was amazing at the time, in context, but it doesn’t hold up. Other movies do, that one doesn’t. IMO.

Ronando: … I hate you when you make a good point.

Alright, everyone knows that the movie is in full production. Everyone’s excited and we want to get our hands on every image and video we can buy, steal, grab, swipe, dodge and duck to get on our site. Ethics be damned!

So, here’s our favorite Brokeback friend Heath Ledger who will be playing the part of The Joker.

Nahh, that’s not what he looks like in the movie.

THIS is what he looks like in the upcomming Dark Knight movie.

Wicked!

And here’s Harvey, our favorite DA!

You just gotta love him.
