If they retire the Joker then how will the Dark Knight Returns movie play out?

I swear that guy, as the Joker, always reminded me of my grandmother.

Nolan said it in an interview as part of his repsonse on where the third film would go.

Makes sense too, it's not like he's Paul Anderson or something, the man has made 1 sequel: The Dark Knight. He's not the sequel-kinda guy.

I meant the "Nolan made one Batman film and Begins was necessary" comment,I believe Begins is what he planned and then came up with TDK after The Prestige,Thats what it seems like in most of his interviews.

And I know theres no confirmation that Nolans doing Batman 3,but theres no indication that he wont.

I always asumed that it would be a trilogy after the ending of TDK.

They retired his number, but they didn't retire the position he played.

So you are saying the will retire his name "The Joker" and not the character?

Batman Beyond Return of the Joker live action confirmed.

More like: Beyond a Joker

right?

It's not like they retired Superman when Christopher Reeve died. Fuck the fanboys.

You mean like retiring Superman from all future Superman movies?! Now that's a maverick idea.

 

[Darko]

Fucking idiots.

I hope the Joker is reused in the next movie with a different actor.

Garfield Minus Garfield works.

Sorry, but the Joker is a bigger deal than Heath Ledger - and 'whether you like it or not', Heath Ledger was the best Joker only in yours, and probably quite a few other peoples opinion, but it's still just opinion and not some indisputable fact like you make it out to be. Personally my favourite on-screen Joker would be the guy from the Batman: Dead End short film, because his performance captured pretty much exactly how i'd always imagined Joker while reading the comics;

Boner from Growing Pains is not the best Joker.

The Joker is a signature role that a lot of great actors would like to take a crack at.

Heath elevated the role, showing that its up to radical interpretation.

Other actor in this generation and the next should and will get their chance.

I still think they should've had the cops kill the Joker at the end. I mean, c'mon ... Gotham is a big city and this guy's caused so much trouble and so many deaths, particularly of their own, they're not gonna gut him like a fish while he's helpless?

Right.

 

[Raw64life]

I do agree that the Joker shouldn't be in any sequels in the Nolanverse but to retire him from film forever is a little absurd.

 

[Ignatz Mouse]

Let the record show that we are talking about 2,431 people:lol

In Internet People that equals, like, 6 real people.

 

[tino]

Jack is better.

I demand Ashton Kutcher to play the next Joker to piss off these people.

 

[Zeliard]

JGL is playing Cobra Commander in the GI Joe-flick. A decision noone can fully understand.

lol?

It's that hard to understand that he wants a paycheck?

So watched Batman: Dead End just now and ugh...UGH! Not good. Worst joker evar
