Would LOVE to see Hugo Weaving as the Riddler in the next one, he has that dark presence and intellectual voice that could really get inside the Bat's head. I mean just look at him as Agent Smith or V (V for Vendetta), he would thrive in that role!!!!

So, you're planning on making a lot of Batmans enemies Australian?

I've also heard that Heath Ledger is being considered for a posthumous Oscar for this award, the first one in close to 30 years. He really deserves it.

We Aussies are a crazy bunch =)

He really does deserve that oscar too! This was a phenominal performance by him and it'd be a crime for him not to get it.

I wonder what they plan on doing for the next movie? I think they'll bring back Cat Woman but that's just me.

nah mate, Catwoman was always a form of cheap sex appeal, it really wouldn't fit well with were they appear to be taking the movies (namely, as far as hell away from the old ones as possible).

Enjoyed film to no end.

Ledger really stole the show for that film.

HOWEVER, I couldn't really focus on the movie because of, well-

WATCHMEN!

...

...WATCHMEN!

P.S.- We'll see if Rorschach can out-crazy the Joker.

Just seen it, it was incredible, what a final role for Ledger. Phenomenal performance, genuinely disturbing and kind of how I always saw the Joker. Little hint dropped by Fox suggests Catwoman might make an appearance in the next one, which could be interesting. I know there were rumours that Philip Seymour Hoffman might play the Penguin at some point, no idea if there is any meat to that. Riddler shouldn't be next, would be too much like they are remaking the previous series, and their are better, less campy villians to utilize. problem is, some of them are a tad on the unbelievable side. Liked Scarecrow's little cameo too.

Next Villians, Killer Croc, Clayface, Ivy, Bane (they could get it right this time), Penguin, Ventriliquist/scar face, Catwoman, hell, even Ra's could come back.

either way, i wouldnt worry too much about the Joker not appearing anymore.

Right, well some people tried to answer my question... The first two tries didnt really make any sense to me, as you assumed I was asking why

It still doesnt add up, but then again a man fighting crime in a bat suit doesnt either.

Ok, Clayface, Ivy and possibly Killer Croc wouldn't work so well with the gritty realism of the films. Ventriloquist is a lame villain sadly. Bane *miiight* work, if they make the Venom a little less OTT.

For the next film they should use a villain who isn't so gag oriented, unless its the Riddler with OCD. I'd like to see either Black Mask, Great White Shark, Hugo Strange (not as the main antagonist but hindering Batman on the side).
The best choice would be Hangman though as Harvey Dent is already dead, it would make sense for Hangman to target Gotham PD.

The Penguin is just a genius gangster with one too many blows from the Fugly Stick.

His face didn't melt, it just got third degreee burns. They also had to cut off the skin on his cheeks.

Heath deserves the posthumous oscar for his role as the Joker, he made the movie for me, he made the character beleivable

Definitely agreeing with the previous post.

I was very amused by the "magic trick."

And...his reason why he prefers knives over guns.

I refuse to watch it in anything but iMAX, as such, I've got to wait until August 2nd.
Very, very tempted to see it at a normal cinema first though.

I can see refusing to watch Batman Begins in anything but IMAX because some of the scenes were shot using IMAX cameras (first time, ever.)

But are you saying you refuse to watch movies in anything but the IMAX? Because that's really limiting yourself to some crappy movies, most of the time.

Though the movie was good, it seems everyones hyping it to hell, AGAIN. This is just like what happened to Grand Theft Auto 4, the movie had its flaws.

ledger pulls of the best joker ive ever seen

too bad i cant say that for the rest of the characters

Although I disapprove of your lack of punctuation and capitals, I do approve of your opinion.

I did enjoy Michael Cain as the butler, and (of course) Heath Ledger as the Joker. I really wouldn't be surprised if Ledger won Best Actor, even though he's dead.

I think many people will agree when I say that I hated Bruce Wayne. He just seemed like the kind of dickhead that I have to deal with at school, pardon my French.

Overall, though, Wall-E will have to impress for best movie of 2008 for me, as it is the movie that I am anticipating with great... anticipation.

Brilliant movie, but it would never been good if it weren't for good ol' Heath. He was so convincing, and he had you on the edge of your seat, never expecting what he would do next.

1st Point - Yes. Agreed.
2nd Point -


3rd Point - I would actually prefer it that way, myself. Hmm... George Clooney as Batman?

I just know that someone will disturb the peace and say that Heath Ledger was an unconvincing Joker. There's always that kind of person.

i don't think he deserves an oscar for the role HOWEVER it was the best joker i've seen, between him and the script and the director, they got the joker down really well

Jack was a good joker but he wasn't psychotic enough, he was more funny than crazy

He made the character terrifying. And I loved every minute of it. This will go down as one of my favorite comic book movies, hell, one of my favorite movies!

Miley Cyrus wasn't in Dark Knight and I don't think she drinks(not sure on the drinking one) The only girl who was a main character was Maggie Gyllinhaal (Sorry about the spelling on her last name)

that's shocking, he did such a good job. Why are they trading him out?
