I knew that, actually. And while I think its an OK comic, I don't think "Killing Joke" shows the definitive version of the character.
I'm mocking him for taking his role too seriously. >which is something any Batman fan should be thrilled about. I suppose people thought Brando was "excessive" for his ground-breaking method acting during 'On the Waterfront' and DeNiro was "excessive" for gaining 40 pounds for his role in 'Raging Bull.' If they did those things while locked in a hotel room for a month, yeah, that would be excessive. >Now I'm not making comparisons between 'Dark Knight' and those movies, but my point is this... all I care about is how much work Ledger's putting into this role, and IMO the more the better. Whether or not you think he's a Hollywood pretty-boy has no impact on the quality of the movie. I've never seen Heath Ledger movie, so I have no preconcieved notions about him. >So I hope you haven't already prejudged Ledger. Because from my take on the trailer, I didn't even see Ledger, just the Joker. I kind of saw the Crow, which isn't the Joker at all. | |||||||
