The Dark Knight

[Composer #40]

I finally got a copy of the Batman from 1989... I like the Dark Knight's joker better. He doesn't creep me out as much but I still want to blast his head off.

1989

2008

And that.

Jack Nicholson still played the part very well. even though now he's overshadowed by Heath Ledger's Joker.

Jack Nicholson had the attitude right, but the writing for him is horrible. First, Joe Chill murdered Bruce's parents, not Jack Napier (Joker). Second, they made him way too comical and Clownish for such a dark movie. That Joker would have been good in a movie for a younger audience. Finally, Tim Burton knows shit about comics and himself he admitted it because he was never able to read them properly.

[SuperFireKirby]

Wait a minute. Tim Burton wrote the script for the Batman movie?

[Composer #40]

Yes he did. Then after Batman Returns Joel Schumacher took up directing the next two movies after it (which, according to a friend, is why Michael Keaton stopped playing as Batman in the movies).

[SuperFireKirby]

Hmmm... I never knew that.

[Mike]

Yeah and of course Schumacher had to put nipples on the costumes.

*puts hand to mouth and giggles at such a silly but true statement*

[Mike]

Oh fuck yes! Warner Bros is so happy at the response to Dark Knight that they just announced the next Superman movie will be darker the same way they did with the new Batman series and they want to make 8 more comic book movies.

[SuperFireKirby]

Superman returns sucked. And I mean IT SUCKED.

[Mike]

The writing was bad and it felt way too much like a nod to the old movies by adding humor and pretty much making Brandon Routh the same as Christopher Reeve, but the ambiance of the movie was a step in the right direction. Sadly Superman didn't even throw a single punch.

[SuperFireKirby]

Superman ain't all that super anymore.
