THAT IS A TREAT

It all comes back!

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 1 August 2006 20:08 (nineteen years ago)

Hmm, I believe that was when I was boycotting ILE for a month after it started.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 1 August 2006 20:10 (nineteen years ago)

I am just concerned because this role is so incredibly different from everything else he's ever done that I can't even fathom what it's going to be like.

He attempted camp in Casanova and was quite splendid.

The casting choice here admittedly blew my mind. I never cared for him until Brokeback Mountain, but he was so marvelous it's almost impossible to separate him from Ennis Del Mar.

And I think Cillian Murphy is a FOX. Clearly I am alone on this.

I think Cillian Murphy is generally considered the best looking actor of his generation. Ally's views are to be treated as that of a dangerous maverick.

casanova was not fucking "splendid." dude.

― s1ocki (slutsky), Tuesday, 1 August 2006 22:02 (nineteen years ago)

Fucking splendidly, Alfred meant.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 1 August 2006 22:03 (nineteen years ago)

he was a total eunuch in that movie. i still don't understand how they made a movie about casanova totally, pathetically sexless.

― s1ocki (slutsky), Tuesday, 1 August 2006 22:03 (nineteen years ago)

Dear, I said Ledger was splendid in Casanova, not the film, although it's the most diverting Lasse Hallstrom joint in years.

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn (Alfred Soto), Tuesday, 1 August 2006 22:22 (nineteen years ago)

and i said he was a total eunuch!

i'm glad people have stopped casting him as european dudes, it just makes no sense

― s1ocki (slutsky), Tuesday, 1 August 2006 22:30 (nineteen years ago)

You do have a point. The part of Ennis Del Mar was such a good fit in part because it suited his ropey looks and rumbly baritone. But it's just as mannered a performance as playing the Joker might be.

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn (Alfred Soto), Tuesday, 1 August 2006 22:33 (nineteen years ago)

agreed!

― s1ocki (slutsky), Tuesday, 1 August 2006 22:45 (nineteen years ago)

A low-voiced Joker would certainly be a first.

― 100% CHAMPS with a Yes! Attitude. (Austin, Still), Tuesday, 1 August 2006 22:58 (nineteen years ago)

not to mention a gay cowboy joker!

― s1ocki (slutsky), Tuesday, 1 August 2006 23:01 (nineteen years ago)

I guess his real name is "Franco"

but I'm not really sure about it

― literalisp (literalisp), Tuesday, 1 August 2006 23:11 (nineteen years ago)

As far as Casanova's go, Heath is pretty lame.

― GILLY'S BAGG'EAR VANCE OF COUPARI (Ex Leon), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 00:16 (nineteen years ago)

Alba, what generation are you talking about? If by "generation" you mean dudes that kind of look like you, then...well actually even then I think you are wrong?

Also we were wondering to ourselves last night, what exactly IS a typical Heath Ledger role that the Joker would be distinct from? He seems kind of all over the map?

― Allyzay knows where the interfacing goes. (allyzay), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 18:06 (nineteen years ago)

I don't really know much about generations, you have found me out. It's true that the people I consider good-looking are like better versions of me. Anyway, lots of people do swoon at Cillian Murphy's looks, is the point. Those eyes!

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 18:12 (nineteen years ago)

Oh no I know there are certainly ppls who do, I'm just saying that "he is considered the best looking actor of his generation" seems like the kind of sweeping overstatement that even I wouldn't approach. Well, ok, I might, but it'd be silly.

― Allyzay knows where the interfacing goes. (allyzay), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 18:14 (nineteen years ago)

I was attention-seeking through hyperbole.

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 18:28 (nineteen years ago)

Tart.

― Jesus Da n (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 18:31 (nineteen years ago)

i don't get why they're doing the Joker again; didn't "batman" cover the creation of the Joker already?

― kyle (akmonday), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 18:35 (nineteen years ago)

Nolan is doing it right this time.

"Hmmm, needs more bathos!"

― Huk-L (Huk-L), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 18:44 (nineteen years ago)

over time I've come to think that the Burton/Nicholson version of the Joker is actually pretty awful. Having watched it again recently, the first Burton Batman movie is an incredibly clumsy and misconceived enterprise (the second one is actually WAY better!)

Isn't this kind of like asking "I don't get why the Superman movie go into his origin; didn't they cover that in the television show?"

― Jesus Dan (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 18:56 (nineteen years ago)

(Basically, the fact that they're both movies about Batman does not mean that they are canonical with each other.)

― Jesus Dan (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 18:57 (nineteen years ago)

I hope the script's a little less starchy this time. No gangsters who say things like "you've never tasted desperate."

― Zwan (miccio), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 20:34 (nineteen years ago)

(the second one is actually WAY better!)

Easily the best ever. Next comes the original original Adam West movie.

― literalisp (literalisp), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 20:45 (nineteen years ago)

You think Christian Bale might drop his gravelly 7-year-old-pretending-to-be-the-boogeyman "I'M BATMAN" voice and just use his Bruce Wayne one? It's so ridiculous as is. Halle Berry gave up her African (I assume that's what she was going for) Storm accent after the first movie, so there's precedent.

― Zwan (miccio), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 20:49 (nineteen years ago)

Remember the voice modulators used in this film?

You know, I forgot how "heyyyyyy!" those posters were.

i don't understand the Returns love. that movie blew!

OUT

― Jesus Dan (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 22:01 (nineteen years ago)

not before i bite yer nose off like the penguin!

honestly though, i'm sick of almost anything burton-related these days.

i loved it as a kid.

― de latebloomer's 2015 youth crew revival (latebloomer), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 22:10 (nineteen years ago)

yeah Burton's promise has been badly squandered. He had a nice streak there for little while tho.

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 22:11 (nineteen years ago)

nothing will ever top the first batman, except maybe an appearance by bat-mite

― david allen grier (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 22:13 (nineteen years ago)

don't forget Ace the Bat-hound

The first Batman movie hasn't aged as well I as thought it would.

LIES

― PARTYMAN (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 22:40 (nineteen years ago)

batman returns would be better without the penguin.

― J.D. (Justyn Dillingham), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 22:43 (nineteen years ago)

b-b-but his lil' funeral march chokes me up every time!!!

― literalisp (literalisp), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 22:53 (nineteen years ago)

yeah the penguin shit is what sinks that film

― gear (gear), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 22:55 (nineteen years ago)

When we say first Batman movie are we talking about the one with Adam West or the one with Robert Wuhl? Because the one with Adam West is great.

― Zwan (miccio), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 22:56 (nineteen years ago)

tim burton hasn't made a film i've enjoyed in the past fifteen years, though 'sleepy hollow' was alright.

― gear (gear), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 22:56 (nineteen years ago)

don't drag arli$$ into this

― PARTYMAN (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 2 August 2006 22:57 (nineteen years ago)

ed wood is awesome.
