Best Movie Joker

Which is really what all the filmmakers are going for nowadays for some reason.

Perhaps because the movie audience at large can't stand to watch the Fantastic Four swap powers every five seconds and get stopped by a single woman holding a 9mm handgun? Or perhaps because someone wearing a bright green leotard with question marks can't be taken seriously? Perhaps it's because fanschy special effects can't save a lame plot, ala Spiderman 3?

I think one of the funniest, most ironic things about "The Dark Knight" was the Joker's catchphrase...

"Why so serious?"

The whole comic book thing turned into a movie is like.... that movie Kick Ass, you would look silly running around in tights like that.

So they have to make it look somewhat realistic, and make the characters act like they're in real life not some cartoon world where everyone is fond of mulit-colored tights.

I wasn't speaking against realism, I was just questioning Hollywood's reasoning.

For example, why go through the trouble of intricately explaining how a virus can bring dead cells back to life, and then make a 9mm bullet from a range of about 7 feet have the same kinetic force of a Louisville Slugger propelled by an ancient Roman Scorpio at point blank?

I don't get how they can really think about the biology of something, but shit all over the physics.

Hey

The T-Virus would work, if they had the virus itself

And physics are kept safe... usually. I think

Start at about 6:50.

Notice how they fly back when hit by the slug.

I'm gonna go with Ledger. Guess I'm late to the voting

I don't think that holds up to the stupid shit that series pulled out in the film after that.

Extinction really sucked ass.

Apparantly the same virus that brings dead tissue back to life, also can give the power of pyrokinesis.

BULLSHIT.
