:D That reminds me of Charlie Murphy. "Wow, OJ Simpson, he got a big fuckin head man."

Looking forward to the flick though.

Yes we do. We need a Batman vs Joker story that I can watch with out feeling ashamed that I wasted 2 hours of my life. And I think we are going to get it. I saw the first 7 minutes of the film and it looks amazing.


P.S. There have only been like 6 or 7 Bat films. There have been over 1000 Bat stories in the comic world. The story has of him is not over.

First off, this thread should be merged with http://www.dubcnn.com/connect/index.php?topic=162405.0

Second, NO. Romero was a good Joker, but Jack is the best without question. To Romero's credit, he had this crap to deal with.

Well I just grew up with those 60s Batman series (the reruns in the 80s that is) and I loved it and still like it today while I never was too much of a fan of the Batman mocies - no clue why.  It´s so over the top that it´s good - to me at least. That´s why I love Romero as the Joker. 

That railor of the Dark Knight in the bank is really really great though. Definitely gonna check this in the cinema and the Joker looks really great too.

I was never really a big batman fan.  I liked the first two movies but that was about it.  But after seeing the preview for this I might have to check it out.

Kills every super hero movie period. Not that there was much to compete with. The only other Super Heo movie I can think of that was any good as a film was Superman, the first one, and if Robocop and the Crow count them too. TMNT wasn't all that bad for a kids film.

Superman is kinda classic but you cant compare it because of the technology

Technology aside, Begins has a better story and presentation than all the others. The first half alone, wth out the effects was classic.

There were only 2 Jokers. What does "easily the best" really mean? It's between a great actor who played himself in the late 80s, or a 40 and 50s movie actor in the 60s on a campy TV show. And there has only been one major motion picture Joker. It makes no sense to debate who the best Joker was. It's like debating who the best Lex Luthor was. And usng Hackman's career as proof that he's better than the guy from Smallville.


Burton's movies can't compete with Nolans. Nolan is bringing a level art and prestige to Super Hero films. Burton brought us Beetlejuice.


P.S. Keaton played a better Joker as Beetlejuice than Nicholson did as Joker. But that was Burton's fault because Nicholson played a better Joker than both in Cuckoo's Nest.
