Finally! Someone else with my feelings towards the trailer and Ledger's performance/voice... not to mention the pictures I have seen of him so far... bright pink/orange smile and his hair is brown with lime green highlights....................... just awful! ❌

So what and Ras Al Ghul was Caucasian not Arab you dont expect the characters to look exactly like the comic book characters. What exactly is wrong with his voice, what did you expect?

It might work in the context of the movie but I am skeptical as of right now. The Joker is always fun in a psychotic and sadistic way. This one seems to be far more serious. I wonder if he will even be allowed to do anything truly theatrical and zany? 🙁

Well heres the problem. I liked Burtons Joker but I just couldnt take him serioulsy. The Joker is a pychotic murderer and eventhough he can be funny his evil should instill fear.

It seems what Nolan is trying to do is trying to make him funny but at the same time instill a sense of dread.

I like Heath's voice, when you think about it, his voice should sound a little F'D up from havng his face cut open. lol

I'm happy with everything so far that i've seen/heard on the whole except little things that bug me such as The Joker wearing white make up rather than being 'bleached' by acid, i can't help but be bothered by things like this but they don't ruin the movie so everyone should just watch the movie and roll with it, im sure the character WILL be there.

Yeah that is a bit of a bummer.

I think I found another trailer , it was on youtube and (while there were a lot of fanmade ones clogging the place up) this one say's it's 'leaked' and does look like it....

YouTube video

Thoughts ?

Meh cant get it to work!

Ok looked it up on youtube myself. All I can say is im not sure....there are alot of fake trailers going around.

I'd say it's fake but the Dark Knight logo at the end is well done. The trailer doesn't feature the Joker Card thats featured at the end of begins/whysoserious website though and the speech sounds "fan-made"

It is but we must have realism, mustn't we? But like I said I'm still opened minded but things are bugging me no doubt. 😉

Is he even cut? I can't tell. It doesn't look like he has anything wrong with his face whatsoever and that he just put on lots of eye makeup for the dark circles, white makeup for his face, and lipstick for his lips. I don't see any cuts or anything.

There is obvious facial scarring in the picture of him holding a knife to Maggie Gyllenhaal. And I LOVE the fact that he puts make-up on instead of being scarred by acid. It's a lot less stupid that way.

I think him putting on a bunch of makeup makes him lame. I like the idea that he was disfigured that way not that he actually likes dressing up like a clown

Um... that is what the casting director's job is... to put the best actor for the role in that role... the director should try and find someone who best fits the role, not someone who is popular at the moment, even if they chose them because they are a wonderful actor (as Liam Neeson was) doesn't necessarily mean they will still fit that role properly.

I thought Cillian Murphy did a great acting job as the Scarecrow, but I still do not see him as Jonathan Crane, he was too young and too short, LOL!

And Michael Caine will never be Alfred to me... once again, great actor but not right for the role... as was Tom Wilkinson... I mean come on, he's British not Italian!

There just seems to be a HUGE problem with Nolan and his casting choices when it comes to this franchise to me.

Yeah Alfred's a cockney in Nolans world, i can imagine him saying "orwight Guv'nor" to Bruce like Bart Simpson does. "Kippers for breakfast Aunt Helga"

I like how him putting on make-up has to do with his state of mind, not some freakish accident. I think the fact that he dresses like a clown all the time adds to his madness.

That makes a lot of sense... Good point...

So when does it come out?

I think it's lame and it should stay the way it's supposed to be. The Joker is the Joker because of an accident and his appearance is a part of that one bad day he had.

What's next? Two face is just gonna tape a mardi gras mask to the other side of his face to demonstrate his madness? I mean is it REALLY that much for them to make the Joker look like that as apart of his accident? It's just another thing Nolan is changing to make Batman more "real" and I personally think it's lame because there is no real reason to do it. Joker was a psycho without having to put on lipstick and makeup every morning.

The Dark Knight comes out next July 18

What the heck, I can't see the whole trailer. On the good quality trailer, it stops half way through, right before Joker speaks, so I still haven't heard the good quality of his voice.
