I visit the "Batman-on-film" site quite a bit. It's an excellent site for Batman related movie information. They've already reported on potential actors for the Joker and made some good points about the Joker character. I hope in the next movie they make the Joker truly twisted, evil, with a little bit of scary thrown in. The Joker isn't really "funny". Yes, he may make some amusing comments/quips, but when he really turns it on, it's psychotic. Jacks' Joker in 1989 was ok, but to me he never seemed to capture the Joker from the comics. He was just playing his regular "crazy Jack" role. Also, if you think about it , he was probably indirectly responsible for the rest of the Batman flicks villians being "over the top" and not true to the comic character. Devitos' Penguin...come on. Jones' Two Face...too Jack like. Ahnulds' Freeze...who knows what the hell happened there. I always thought if he would have played it like the Terminator, cold and straight, ihe would have done a nice job with Freeze. All of them were trying to be like Jack in a way.
