warning: said film still promises Heath Ledger as Joker.

― Huk-L (Huk-L), Friday, 16 February 2007 04:54 (seventeen years ago) link

I know he’s too old to play either the Joker and Dent, but a slightly younger Ray Liotta as seen in Something Wild or Goodfellas would’ve been perfect…

Haha Ray Liotta has a fucked up mouth

Back in the pre-Michael Keaton Days, Ray Liotta was my choice for Bruce.

Supposedly, a Gyllenhall is replacing Mizz Cruise as the wuv object.

Tim Burton should've had Ray Liotta play both Batman AND the Joker. Duality DO YOU SEE etc.

well checking imdb it seems i haven't seen one Aaron Eckhart movie, no wonder i hadn't heard of him.

Never really heard of Heath either. Doesn't have much of a joker look about him i must say.

why is thread titled thus, when the movie is called Dark Knight ?

― Ste (fuzzy), Friday, 16 February 2007 13:19 (seventeen years ago) link

1) Aaron Eckhart was in Erin Brockovich & Paycheck (VERY KEY to understanding his Two-Face)
2) Heath Ledger was in Brokeback Mountain and Ten Things I Hate About You (VERY KEY to understanding his Joker)
3) "Batman Begins II" is a more informative thread title than "Dark Knight."

Someone get Neil LaBute to doctor this script so it turns the movie into a 3-man bro-fest where they're all trying to fuck w/ Vicki Vale.

...and where Batman punches women in a bear suit and gets stung by bees

no i meant the "In the Company of Batmen part" ..

or is it just an ilxism

― Ste (fuzzy), Friday, 16 February 2007 13:44 (seventeen years ago) link

Because Eckhart's first big film was Neil LaBute's "In the Company of Men"

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Friday, 16 February 2007 13:46 (seventeen years ago) link

Check out Aaron Eckhart's filmography, Ste.

Or have Andrew ruin the pun.

'Thank You For Batmanning' would have been my choice, but ech what the hell.

Aaron Eckhart's Paycheckmate!

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Friday, 16 February 2007 14:04 (seventeen years ago) link

You know what'd be great? More Gotham cop action. You know what'd be even greater? A Gotham Central TV show.

YESSSSSS

If the success of Heroes is any indication, it (mixing quotidian cop shenanigans with extraordinary spandex shenanigans) could work, too!

You know what'd be great? Adam West's writers, and not trying to make kiddie pulp into Hamlet.

also fight scenes that aren't edited with a Cuisinart

You know what'd be great? For folks to realize that funnybooks can work as films without being all WHIFF BANG ZOW and ridiculously campy.

for some reason the phrase "more Gotham cop action" rings heavily homoerotic in my mind

― TOMB07 (trm), Friday, 16 February 2007 15:29 (seventeen years ago) link

yes Dave, but Dick Lester & Chris Reeve are dead, and did the guy who made Tetsuo ever come to Hollywood?

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Friday, 16 February 2007 15:46 (seventeen years ago) link

good point

― temporary enrique (temporary enrique), Friday, 16 February 2007 15:47 (seventeen years ago) link

Adam West's writers

I think Tom Fontana already did. Only instead of Batman, H:LOTS had Yaphet Kotto as deus ex machina.

grrrrrrrrrrr

― David RER (Frank Fiore), Friday, 16 February 2007 16:39 (seventeen years ago) link

Does that mean the special episode starring Robin Williams = the GC Joker arc?

― David RER (Frank Fiore), Friday, 16 February 2007 16:39 (seventeen years ago) link

And Bayliss as "Gay Zen Cop with an Internet Page" = Half A Life.

I am excited for this, but still disappointed they didn't give the Joker role to Crispin Glover.
