UZI Suicide 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2007 I've liked everything that has come out about this movie so far, but I can't get over how awful the new batsuit looks. And I'm not really sure how I feel about the fact that The Joker is just a guy in makeup instead of following the traditional Joker storyline. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheech Tremendous 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2007 And I'm not really sure how I feel about the fact that The Joker is just a guy in makeup instead of following the traditional Joker storyline. I concur. There's never been a definitive recounting of the Joker's origin. The most accepted version is the chemical burn, but from Wikipedia: No recounting of the Joker's origin has been definitive, however, as he has been portrayed as lying so often about his former life that he himself is confused as to what actually happened. As he says in The Killing Joke: "Sometimes I remember it one way, sometimes another... if I'm going to have a past, I prefer it to be multiple choice!" In Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth written by Grant Morrison, it is said that the Joker's insanity runs so deeply, that he recreates himself every day. He could have a different personality with different quirks and mannerisms whenever he sees fit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brett Favre 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2007 It looks like the chemical burn and he just tries to fix himself up a little which makes sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bobobrazil1984 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2007 Those pictures are fantastic. Apparently those were supposed to be used for various viral schemes, but someone leaked them all out beforehand. They are way way clear. Though I'm not crazy about Joker being all make-up he does look psycho. Love the scene where he's kicking Batman - they just need a POW! apparently WB went apeshit, the photos are being yanked from SHH posts, AICN pulled them, etc. I think i'll save myself some copies for posterity just in case!

Brett Favre 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2007 So it's official that it's all make up? It looks like he has the scars. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bobobrazil1984 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2007 i dunno if its "official" but in the photos, the makeup only covers his face and his neck and hadns are flesh colored. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lil' Bitch 0 Report post Posted August 18, 2007 I have a bad feeling about this, but I'm trying to hold judgment until the film comes out. Maybe Nolan will actually go back to the beginning and Joker's origin won't be explained at all since he's just some crazy guy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZGangsta 0 Report post Posted August 20, 2007 Love the look for the Joker, this movie is going to rock. I like this evolution of the Batman suit too, it works for this world. The only thing I'm not fond of is the symbol on the chest seems too hidden. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brett Favre 0 Report post Posted August 23, 2007 Rumored info regarding the Joker and his face or whatever: I read some rumor that the Joker has a permanent white face because of the chemicals, but then he puts on skin makeup, THEN he puts on white makeup to cover up the skin makeup so when the white makeup comes off they'd figure that he wasn't the real Joker. If they do this well, that could be pretty cool, showing how cerebral and insane he is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lil' Bitch 0 Report post Posted August 24, 2007 That'd be cool. I still remember how they did that in the first Batman film. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scroby 0 Report post Posted October 19, 2007 Is there a link or something I'm suppose to click on, on the whysoserious.com site or am I suppose to stare at the pumpkin? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boner Kawanger 0 Report post Posted October 19, 2007 Stare at the pumpkin until the candle burns down, but that might be another week or two HINT HINT;) It's probably counting down to the release of a teaser poster and/or more stills Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robert 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2007 About the poster, there are two rumored posters: 1. Batman standing next to his Bat-pod thing, with Joker cards reigning down on him. 2. This one is pending MPAA approval: The Joker holding a crushed bat, and it is a very graphic image. It might just be a full picture of the Joker with the bat, or just his hands. As for the footage, no word on what the 7 minute footage will be, theories range from the following: 1. A fluff making-of piece about how filming with IMAX cameras helped change the way the movie was filmed. Have something footage from the robbery, or the image of The Joker in-front of the blurry mirror. 2. The famous Wizard Wolrd footage, that Nolan didn't want getting out because it wasn't done editing or having effects being added. 3. The Comic Con stuff: The man delivering clues then killed, the scavanger hunt, and the Joker crime scene. Those are most popular ideas going around the internet.

Robert 0 Report post Posted October 31, 2007 Well, we got all the clues and we got a new picture of The Joker. I had the pic, but it doesn't work. The picture leads to a new site: rorysdeathkiss.com. From there, the new game is some picture thing. If anything, the camera looks like the same camera from the cover of The Killing Joke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
