    I don't think anyone we can give our true opinion about him being Joker until he actually gives out the "Joker smile". We need the "Joker smile", Nolan!

    Btw, Ed Norton as Hulk? Eh... not too sure about that.

    Technically Ed Norton as Bruce Banner.

    I had a feeling this was going to go down while I was in dallas and not on a computer. I think it might be worse than I thought it was going to be. I don't need a purple tuxedo and revolvers with bang flags, but this is just way off the mark. Something like this would have been perfect:

    Hopefully, the characterization is more on the mark.

    Good finds dockerland. I wish Maggie Gyllenhaal was in it from the get go... Other than that the series has tickled all my fancies.

    Norton's forehead suggests he'd be a better casting for the Leader.

    Umm I thought everyone could of seen that. It has footage of Thank You For Smoking in it for god sake :p

    I thought everyone would have understood it was fan created when posted. I just actually thought it was one of the best I have seen in some time.

    It might be fake, but it's a damn good fake. Had me fooled at first.

    I'm also really hoping they make this so intense that it's almost a horror flick. No one's ever really made the Joker as frightening as he should be, not even Nicholson. He needs to be far more disturbed/psychotic than a clown that makes bad jokes as he shots someone.

    I believe they're leaning on Killing Joke for this flick - with Harvey Dent being the focus instead of Gordon - really good idea if true.

    I wish that once Katie Holmes opted out, they'd have scratched the character. Bringing in "lookalike" Mags was a poor decision in my book.

    Here's hoping this one really works - it has the potential to be the best out of all of them if done right.

    If you think about it, Heath Ledger's name is pretty depressing.

    Wasteland tombstone?

    I wish they would never have casted Katie Holmes in the first place. She doesn't even fit the bill for the film. She's an average (compliment) actress with the model quality looks (in some people's opinion.)

    The rest of the film was built around good actors with very little play on their particular beauty. The whole dark setting and more realistic (for a fantasy movie) tone to everything should have made for the genuine love interest to be a more compelling actress.

    My only gripe about the first one. Oh, and I love Liam Neeson and hope that Rā's al Ghūl is not a dead character.
