The Joker

JOAQUIN PHOENIX MIGHT MAKE YOU FORGET ALL THOSE OTHER JOKERS

We didn’t think the Joker could get much creepier than Heath Ledger’s brilliant version, but Joaquin Phoenix has major potential. His Joker starts out as a frustrated stand-up comedian who can’t catch a break and turns to criminal activity – and eventually criminal insanity. There is no Batman in this film – it’s all about the Joker and we bet there will be some twisted humor…

CHRISTIAN BALE: BRING UP THE JOKER AT YOUR OWN RISK

Christian Bale looks like a time bomb ready to explode. He’s had this stern, controlled look on his face since The Dark Knight opened and the spectacular boxoffice results did NOTHING to change it! The fact that his mother and sister charged him with some sort of abuse in London deepens the mystery. They certainly didn’t show up at his premier. We think Christian is sick and tired of fans asking him for autographs and talking incessantly about scene stealing Heath Ledger. If anyone asks Bale one more time “What was it like to work with Heath?” he’s going to GO POSTAL! We just hope cameras are there.
