Default First pic of Heath Ledger as the Joker

Wowzers

It was really hard for me to see what the heck Chris Nolan was doing casting him, but this could be interesting...

Well, mostly it was because I was fresh off of seeing Brokeback Mountain and had never seen him as evil, in like, anything. Just had never really been impressed with him.

I would trust Christopher Nolan with any casting decision though, as he's my favorite director. At first glance, I was like WTF because of my predisposed thoughts of the joker.

This will obviously be a darker version of the joker.

No joke. Hes going to blow the Nicholson version away. Nolan is going to have Joker be the sick, twisted looney he is instead of Burtons im kinda bad but I still dance to prince.

I hope you're not hating on Nicholson's portrayal of the joker, which I thought was great. The tone of the Batman comic series and its characters has varied constantly since its creation. I don't think a darker version of the Joker is necessarily more correct than Nicholson's portrayal. I really liked Burton's first Batman, though I thought the 3 Batmans after that were terrible. Christian Bale's portrayal was a little too dark for my tastes, but I'm still open minded about the subsequent movies.

My favorite depiction of Batman is actually the 1990s cartoon series. I think that series found the happiest medium between darkness and campiness.
