Hello,
I can't believe no one has posted about this...it's a blurb about the Joker's look in the Dark Knight...I was looking for reactions and discussion based on it...but it seemed to not be posted, so here goes:
This came from anoyher website
"Dark Knight reportedly set to begin filming in London shortly, it won't be long before Heath Ledger finally steps before cameras as the new Joker. But what the Oscar-nominated Aussie will look like as the Clown Prince of Crime has been one of the big questions that fans have been wondering about. Now there are a few rumors online about what that look may be.
Although they later updated their initial report to emphasize that this is not the final design, Batman-on-Film.com has been informed by a scooper that Ledger's Joker "will have gray skin with lots of scarring."
Furthermore, Joker will reportedly wear "raggedy" garb, which jives with earlier rumors that his outfit will be more like something he's thrown together than a costume per se.
Director Christopher Nolan is said to be going for a "scary" Joker rather than a clownish one, which would be in line with the realistic approach he took with villains Ra's Al Ghul and The Scarecrow in Batman Begins.
BoF adds that Warner Bros. will likely release an official image of Ledger as The Joker this summer to ward off spy snapshots from leaking out.
Thoughts? I for one am not happy.
Okay, you want to go hyper-real, fine, maybe his skin is "off-white" (seemed to work for the Joker action figures based on TNBA) but scarring - ugh - so he's only scary because he's scarred ugh
