Phenomenal actor, I saw him in both The Core and The Dark Knight & he is just a great actor. He's able to deliver and bring his A-game. I'd love to see him in another Batman and I'll for sure be checking out more of his movies in the future.

He's good, but I wouldn't list "The Core" as something with any particularly memorable acting in it.

He's good in 'Thank You For Smoking' though.

Da Joker
I actually thought he was the only good actor in the Core. Heck, the only reason I even saw the movie was because I saw it in school. Still, I thought Eckhart was the only good actor in that entire movie.

hahaha...i never thought i'd see the day when the words "phenomenal actor" were attributed to Aaron Eckhart

saw Meet Bill last night... it was entertaining...

Why? You don't like his work? He is a truly fantastic actor.

Robtard
You saw him in two movies, one being a shit flick/role, the other being a good flick/role. Yet he's a "truly fantastic actor"? I sense more TDK fanaticism here.

As BF mentioned, watch 'Thank You For Smoking", great movie and he does a fantastic job in that.

I fear that to some people, a peanut laden turd would become great if it was somehow associated with TDK.

He died in TDK, hence the eulogy by Gordon at the end.

Da Joker
Nah, he aint dead.

I saw that as a eulogy to Harvey Dent, seeing as how he was Gotham's "White Knight". I felt that they didn't want the city to know what he had become.

I think Two-Face didn't die, but I don't think he will be in the next film if there is one, considering that Batman is on the run. Two-Face just wouldn't fit into the storyline, IMO. I don't want to turn this into a TDK thread, so I'll stop there.

I thought Eckhart was good in "TDK" and I thought he did superb in "Thank You for Smoking". Apart from those two roles, he's really been a minor role actor though.

Da Joker
He was a major character in the Core as well. And I think he's signed on for another Batman movie but I'm not sure.

Röland

But The Core was a terrible movie.

Da Joker
Yeah, it really was, but he was still good in it. Everyone else was pretty much borderline horrible.

I don't think any of the actors in that movie were good.

Da Joker
To each his own, bud.

botankus
After suffering through the atrociouis, unbelievable, overacting in "Neverwas," I was through with this dude.

But in his defense, it didn't help that he was handed one of the top 10 worst scripts in Hollywood history.

chillmeistergen
Saw him in Meet Bill - shit. He isn't a good actor at all, he never has been, never will be.

BruceSkywalker

Actually he did not die. He is alive

chillmeistergen
That's right Bruce, you batter their arguments with evidence.

Da Joker
It's been left ambigious so he can return if they want him to. That's why they never definiively said he was dead.

Robtard
While he may come back, as any silly notion can be written into a script. He appeared dead after the fall, Batman spoke of him as he had died and the eulogy by Gordon at the end all support he died.

Edit:
Also remember his "you either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain" line? He became the villain, I take it that Batman willfully took the blame so Harvey could be buried the "hero". This is just speculation though.

Da Joker
They talked about Harvey dying, but didn't mention the monster he had became. Gordon could have just as well had him put in Arkham and kept it underwraps. We'll have to see what Nolan has to say about it.

Robtard
Obviously, but the evidence at hand supports a death.

We're turning this into a TDK discussion, so that Eckhart, he's only really had one impressive role, "Thank You For Smoking". I'm not ready to accept a "great actor" status on him because of that.

Da Joker
Well, all we can say is they left room for interpretation.

I'd like to see Eckhart tackle more big roles. He was fantastic as Harvey Dent...so if he returned we'd get to see just how well he could really handled being a villain for a two hour movie.

I wonder how he'd do as Captain America....

Robtard
What was so "fantastic" in his adaption of Harvey Dent? It was good, but many an actor could have done that role the same. Jeremy Piven comes to mind, he would have done a better Dent, imo.

Horribly, don't see him as the super-soldier/superhero type at all.

are they not lining John Barrowman up for that role...that will be solid gold....a Glasgow born gay man as Captain America.... laughing

Da Joker
Ugh, that'd suck. I'd like to see how Eckhart would take on the role.

jaden101
i get the feeling you'd like Eckhart in every role in every film from now on....it probably would've been Heath Ledger but you know...being dead killed that idea for you

Robtard
Bale does a superb Batman and Barrowman certainly has the superhero ass-chin for it, so why not.

Though it really isn't fair, if the studios cast an American as 007, there would be a bloodcry.

Da Joker

Was that really necessary? Eckhart is one of my picks for Captain America, as is Thomas Jane and many others. I said I'd like to see him in every role, I never said anything about he could do well in every movie. The Heath Ledger comment was totally inappropriate, show some respect and show that you have some sort of decency.

Robtard
How was it? Saying "Heath Ledger is dead" is just a fact, as he's dead.

He does have a point about you and Eckhart though, you've seen him in a total of two films, the first was a shit role/movie the second was good, yet he's "fantastic"? Just doesn't add up to being sensible, but merely Bat-mania.

Not just that. Remember when the hospital blew up, Two Face survived that. 2nd. Remember when Two Face shot Maroni's driver and the limof lipped over HE SURVIVED THAT, SO just because Two Face falls he is dead. I really do not think so. Also it is a well known fact that Chris Nolan has said that Two Face is the villain for the next film. Unless somehow he changes his mind, which he probably will not do..

none of what i said was as inappropriate as saying Aaron Eckhart is a "phenomenal actor"

so from that it can be deduced that you would think he would do well in every role

he's a B list actor at best...to call him phenomenal is putting him in the same league as deniro, pacino, nicholson, olivier, guinness etc...he's not...face facts...he's just not anywhere near as good...and he never will be

and respect is earned...i have non for Heath Ledger as an actor so i'll say what i like...whether it's offensive or not...the fact is, regarding him, is that if he was still alive, people wouldn't be creaming themselves over his performance like they are...it was good...it wasn't oscar worthy as is being touted.

but you are right...Barrowman wouldn't make a good CA...but he's a better actor than Eckhart

Okay...

1) It's implied that the hospital was empty before the Joker blew it, I'm also pretty certain you see him on the bus right as the Joker jumps in.

2) He put on his seat belt right before he said "you're lucky, let's see if he (the driver) is".

3) Were has Nolan said this?

Thomas Jane? that would be funny.

Da Joker
Nolan was saying Two-Face would be in the third movie a long time ago before Two-Face was actually set to be in TDK. I guess it was going to be set up where he'd be Two-Face by the very end so he'd be the main villain in the third movie, but that was changed.

And jaden, I don't care if you like Ledger as an actor or not, there's no reason to talk about the man since he's dead. It's borderline disrespectful.

Dammit, he's from Scotland!

Why can't he state his opinion of an actor who died?

Da Joker
I don't mind if he thinks he was a horrible actor, but I mean dissrespecting him in general, even with him being dead, is wrong.

I know what it would be. You are accusing someone of it though, and I don't see it happening as such. He's not disrespecting him as person or in general, he just doesn't show respect for his skill, as he thinks that he doesn't have that much.

Da Joker
I understand that, but he himself states that he'd basically say anything bad about Heath if he wanted to because he can, which is wrong.

chillmeistergen
In your opinion.

Da Joker
Shut up.

chillmeistergen
Well, that was pretty unnecessary. I have half a mind to report you.

Da Joker
Then I guess you'd need the other half to report me. big grin

Anyway, this is Eckhart's thread, Ledger hs one right below this one.

chillmeistergen
I'm fully aware of that.

I've commented on Eckhart, but I'll do it again: he shows no real promise of being a great actor at all, he is distinctly average, always has been, always will be.

Da Joker
When I see you in a movie that's made over $400 million worldwide, then talk about him not being a great actor.

Has he been announced for any new movies yet?

chillmeistergen
You judge the quality of acting by how much the movie makes? Oh dear.

Da Joker
No, but I'm saying I want to see you in a movie with as much praise. A lot of people believe he was spectacular as Dent, and think he should return, and some have even went to see the movie again because of him. SM-3 made $890 million worldwide and it's not close to being the best superhero movie ever.

Why would you want to see me in a movie with as much praise, you odd, odd person? Does that somehow affect the validity of my opinion? Of course it doesn't.

You've pulled this tactic on me also. What does Chilly not being an actor have any bearing with his opinion of Eckhart being an average actor?

You've admittedly seen him in two movies, yet he is "fantastic". The Core which was shit all around, you can apply your "it made X amount of dollars" logic there to see that it was, and TDK, which was a decent role, but many an actor could have done it just as good or better. It's clear you're only saying this because of the current lemming-like bat-mania that is going on right now.

Obviously, it was an error.

If it doesn't affect the quality, why bring up that stupid remark? Chill isn't an actor, ergo, he wouldn't be in a movie that made a $999 million or a movie that lost money.

Jaden's point, are all the actors in a movie worthy of praise because the movie did well? The Hispanic female cop in TDK, her role was nothing special. Should we make a thread about her because she's in a current blockbuster?

Which is completely unfounded. He did a decent role that could have been done to an equal or greater level by many an actor (eg Jeremy Piven), so it stands to reason that this "praise" is nothing more than a side-effect of the Bat-mania.

Ben Kingsley received praise for his role as Ghandi, why? Because it was done well and not many an actor could have done it.

If ya say so.

Moving on, I'd like to see Eckhart as Cap, it'd be interesting to see.

He doesn't look the part and more importantly, he hasn't done anything to indicate that he'd be good at playing the 'all American super-soldier'.

Oh god, this is hilarious. On one had we have anyone with any sense or logic saying "he's an average actor, nothing more", then we have the Da Joker saying "no, he isn't, because he's been in a really high grossing movie".

Tommy Lee Jones did an excellent job for what he was hired to do.

Sadly that was to play the worst Two Face imaginable and ruin as much of the Batman franchise as possible.

Ruin the franchise? All of the Batman movies are cartoonish and hard for me to take seriously. Whether its the Penguin, Riddler or either Joker, their attempts be serious make me laugh. But I do think that Eckhart was the better Two-Face.

I haven't seen Dark Knight, but the previews of the Joker I have seen were hardly cartoonish.

And I think it is undeniable that Forever at least marked the start of the ruin of the franchise. Being cartoonish is not a problem, being absolutely ridiculous and stupid (and also out of character) is one.

Good question, oh right it had a ridiculous Joker wannabe as Two Face...Jim Carrey as a very flashy Riddler (who also wanted to be the Joker), a very undark and horribly miscast Batman, a plot that could make you wish you would have choked on your vomit when you first heard it.


Oh yeah..and Robin. Not like in the comics ... an actually gay Robin.

It annoys me that major villains almost always die in comic book movies. Recently, the Incredible Hulk & TDK were the only movies that let the villain live.

He serves as a minder that Batman can fail. Personally, I don't care for the character much either; I hope he isn't a part of #3.

I always felt that Two-Face could be Joker level, but none of Batman's villains get as much showtime as the Joker. I warmly welcome a return from him in part 3.

If you're talking about the movies, then Batman Returns, Batman Forever and Batman & Robin are perfect older examples of non-Joker villains. As is Batman Begins and the next installment of this franchise will/should be as well.

Da Joker
No, no, I kind of mean cartoon wise and comics wise (in a way). Cartoon wise he never even appeared in 'The Batman' and only had a small amount of episodes in B:TAS as opposed to the people like the Joker and Rupert Thorne who had tons of episodes.

What do you mean?

Such an annoying troll....

He means that Dent was basically doing the same as him by cleaning up the streets, but he turned into a villain. Batman was helpless to save him.

What you just said was trolling, not my question.

How would you guys rate Eckhart's performance on a scale of 1-10?

I'd give him an 8.2 which rounds down to a solid 8/10.

BruceSkywalker
I would have to give Aaron Eckhart a solid 8.8/10. He was good. Way better than Tommy lee Jones. I look forward to an even better performance during Batman 3

Da Joker
Yep, if he returns. Now all we need is for Nolan to officially announce it.

10/10. He was the best Harvey Dent in the media to date and the second best Two Face, imo.

Have you heard any news about him returning?

Nothing yet, but I'm sure something will come out prolly next year or so. You know WB won't say anything yet until suits them

Da Joker
They'll be milking the crap out of Batman now with TDK's success. It's such a phenomenon that a company like WB can't help but milk it's success.

Is that why the Batman forum appears to be alive with speculation about who will be the villain for Batman 3 (and generally people think the Riddler) and Chris Nolan keeps insisting that he hasn't even thought about a sequel yet? Hell, even David S Goyer, who admitted he and Nolan had talked and had a villain in mind, wouldn't say who it was. Please, try to avoid talking total bullshit when people may actually know you're doing so...

Listen, I go to the Batman forum everyday. Furthermore I am giving my opinion, just like you and everyone else. If you think what I'm saying is total shiite then that is your opinion which I have no problem with. Furthermore stop trying to bait me into an argument in which a Moderator will come in and warn you because I , my friend refuse to get involved with people who think that only their opinion counts and matters. You really need to take some time and realize that every poster has their opinion and has the right to give it. I never have a problem not liking what others have to say, and you do not see me getting in frivolous ignorant arguments with other posters

How about this, Almighty Bauer: You keep your pompous ass tone in check and try talking civilly to other members. There is no need for that kind of rudeness in my forum.

I liked Eckhart i think he did a marvellous job as Dent/Two-Face he was my favorite actor in TDK next only to Heath Ledger as the Joker.

I thought everyone was at the top of their game, but Eckhart and Ledger fell into their roles. More Two-Face would be awesome for the next movie.

I wasn't objecting to your opinion. I was objecting to what I'm fairly certain is a lie, or at least a disturbing misconception. You stated that Chris Nolan had said Two Face would (as in, it is FACT) return in Batman 3. That isn't your opinion. That's a lie.

As is yours. It's your opinion that Bruce's comment is a lie. The truth is that neither of you are correct. It is merely speculation at this point.

Prove it. I'll personally mail you $20 if I'm wrong.

Robtard
Stating something as fact when it is indeed not true is a lie; not an opinion.

"Bale said he'd only do Batman 3 if he gets to wear an ass-less bat-suit." = Lie

"I think Bale should insist on wearing an ass-less bat-suit for part 3." = Opinion

See?

Here we clearly see Goldman allude that Riddler is the most likely choice for a villain, and Nolan said that he just doesn't know anything about the Batman franchise's future.

3. an inaccurate or false statement.

I'll take that 20$ now.
