To me that kicks ass. It is from the Dark Knight, the upcoming Batman sequel. It is an official release, so it is legit.

Go here if you are a man... yes Raisa can click too.

It starts with a pic of Harvey Dent (Two face) that slowly dissolves into The Joker.

Looks interesting. I'm curious about the weird marks around the corners of his lips, I'm drawing a blank right now if that's referring to something in the comics.

I'm so looking forward to this. Julia and I both loved Batman Begins, and we just watched it again the other night after finally getting around to nabbing the DVD (7 bucks for a featureless DVD at Best Buy), and hot damn that's a good movie. I mean, for a superhero movie it's godlike, but even just as an action drama thing it holds its own really really well. I can't wait for the next installment, and if they can manage to pull it off again, I hope Nolan and Bale do a trilogy.

I can't wait. The first was excellent. I read an interview with Heath Ledger about the Joker and was really, really fascinated by his comments on making him more like he was depicted in the comic. He referenced a Clockwork Orange to described the character, which is spot on.

sweet!

i have to admit to never reading the dark knight comics, but the lead character in a clockwork orange as the joker fits very well in my minds eye.

When I heard they were changing the suit I was a little worried but now that I've seen it, it doesn't look too bad.

It looks like... a batsuit.

You all... liked... Batman Begins?

PyroMenace · « **Reply #11 on:** Thursday, June 14, 2007, 10:27:46 PM »

The suit looks good... they did say they were going for something more flexible, but I was kinda going for a look thats less stylish. Kinda like just a ninja suit with some hard padding on it. Like what they wore here:

Something more bare bones you know. They always try to fancy up the suit as if Bruce is a model artist.

it was very highly rated, so why the shock? even most of the die hard dark knight fans seemed to like it.

JacksRag(e) · « **Reply #13 on:** Thursday, June 14, 2007, 10:41:14 PM »

First thing I thought of when I saw the suit was Guyver, oddly enough.

Why is it a guy with "Confusion" in his sounds utterly confused and misguided?

Batman Begins was one of the finest superhero films I've seen. Chris Nolan is quite the writer/director. The performances were astonishing. The set pieces were very well done. I guess if you don't like stuff like that, yes... you would end up confused at why they keep doing so well.

Wow. Someone else has seen The Guyver. Now that was a horrible movie.

If you like the concept of superheroes (and not everyone does) then I would expect you to like Batman Begins. It's so well put together, and more realistic within the confines of its fantasy premise than anything before it. What's wrong with it?

WindAndConfusion · « **Reply #20 on:** Friday, June 15, 2007, 01:01:20 PM »

Fine, I'll watch it again. But if it sucks like Heroes or Jericho, I swear I'm gonna have to kill one of you. Probably GPW. God damned pleb.

Now, wait up. You're allowed to dislike whatever you choose. It's all subjective. I'm just curious. No need to torture yourself if your mind is made up.
