Gianfranco_Z 202 Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 (edited) First off hope this is the right place for it. Ok, so if you havent already seen the film you should stop reading this and go to see it now. It is I think one of the best films i've ever seen, Heath ledger's Joker makes the film in ways, and no it's not because he's dead or anything, it was genuinely one of the most compelling characters in any film. One part which made everyone sit up and take notice was (spoiler) when the joker had some mafia guy and he had a knife in his mouth and he says "want to know how i got these scars? well my dad came home and starting threating my mom, now she didnt like this so she got a kitchen knife which he didnt like, so he took the knife, saw me, and grabbed me, took the knife in my mouth and said 'why so serious son? why so serious'" that was so creepy. Really a must see! Edited July 25, 2008 by Gianfranco_Z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 I saw it yesterday as well. Genuinely impressed, possibly the best film of the last five years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliott 7 Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 Fantastic film, and I agree, Heath Ledger as The Joker was seriously impressive. Possibly some of the best acting I have ever seen, so convincing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.Cee 50 Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Yeah, it's just too bad he died. I would defo like to see more of him in future Batman films. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gianfranco_Z 202 Posted July 28, 2008 Author Share Posted July 28, 2008 Yeah, it's just too bad he died. I would defo like to see more of him in future Batman films. I know I have a feeling a couple of fils down the line they'll try replace with someone as similar as possible like they did with Rachel Dawes, depending on how well they can play the part.

terry26 6 Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 i really dont think that they should get anyone else to play that character but like Matt think that a few movies down they'll get someone - Heath nailed it and it's sad that we'll never get to see that again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 I can see Johnny Depp taking over as the Joker, possibly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.Cee 50 Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 I can see Johnny Depp taking over as the Joker, possibly. I'm not sure he's sinister-looking enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 I would have said the same about Heath Ledger before those promo pics of the Joker were released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry26 6 Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 i think the thing that works against johnny depp is that people already see him as captain jack and he isn't really a sinister character there if he can make the transition to joker then well done to him but it'll take something special Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fulham Broadway 17,333 Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Might have to see this now seeing as people rate it; Johnny Depps character in Pirates was copied from Rolling Stone Keith Richards, and Ledger modelled his Joker on Sid, his colleague has said http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLC3uT3aCoE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EskWeston 696 Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Fantastic film. The new Batman films have been incredible, the realism and darkness in them compared to the slapstick family versions of the previous Batman films makes them stand out even more. All the parts in the film are perfectly cast. Everyone will remember this film for Heath Ledger and it is without doubt his best performance and he completely got the Joker 100%, if you wasn't told it was Heath playing him i don't think you could guess. However if he does pick up an Oscar for the performance it is only because he died, as good as his performance is there is no way on earth he would have had a chance for an Oscar otherwise. Even if you have never liked any of the Batman films before you should see this one as just a stand alone film it is pure quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lampards Bitch Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 1 word for it AWESOME. Best Batman film for sure. Heath Ledger (R.I.P) was amazing. Spot on with portraying the Joker. Loved the Hospital part!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
