    I think that's what he looks like all the time. If you've seen Lost, he looks the same way.

    I just read that Aaron Eckhart has signed on to make a third Batman. I guess that answers the "Is Two face really dead?" question.

    Ledger's performance was the single greatest I've EVER seen. Period.
    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V

    yeah me too. I'm actually watching it right now. I downloaded a hand-held bootleg of it. Just to watch while I wait for the DVD. the quality actually isn't that bad considering. though I can see me making another trip to the theater because it was that awesome.

    off-topic rant:

    I've seen Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi many times. And I gotta say that Billy Dee Williams is HORRIBLE in them. He says his lines so poorly. especially during the attack on the death star in Jedi. Go back and watch them and really pay attention to him. it's bad. Token black guy to say the least.

    But I can't be a complete hater, he did star in the single greatest commercial ever made:

    I know you've been against this. I really think he could have been built up better in Dark Knight to be the main villain in the next one. He wasn't. but you need him somewhere (hopefully in a bigger role than Scarecrow) because at least he's established. I still contend that the ONLY villain left that would fit into this "realistic" Batman that Nolan is doing is Riddler....and even he's a bit of a stretch.

    goodluck to nolan writing in gordons motivation to cover up dents death from batman, his most trusted ally... not to mention a role for him in the new movie that isnt a stale repitition of what he did in TDK... still doesnt make sense to me...

    maybe he signed on for a flashback sequence (im not gonna give up this battle!)

    I'm not even talking cheesy! it's bad acting!!!

    and from a character standpoint, HE BETRAYED HAN SOLO!! Down with Lando!!

    Episodes 1 and 2 are the biggest piles of horseshit ever. Ep3 has some moments. The Emperor is my favorite character from the originals so it was cool for me to see him be prominent in ep3 and turn Vader to evil. that being said, ep3 has a lot of crap in it is as well. I only own the original trilogy.

    first off, whatever Nolan decides to do, I can see it working. you make good points, but the gimmick of him leaving riddles might not be able to sustain in this realistic setting. it's right up Adam West's ally. but I don't know about here. I mean I'm sure they could make it work somehow.

    I don't care too much for Batman Forever but one thing I did like was how they made Riddler obsessed with Bruce Wayne. Unlike Ledger's Joker, who was always in control, I think that this Riddler would have to be more "weak-minded" and crazy...but still cunning in other ways.

    and speaking of Batman Forever, having Two-face and Riddler in the third Nolan movie together would be the same as in Batman Forever.

    ok the cover up... maybe not... i guess batman would still willingly be taking the fall even if dent was alive...

    but repitition... come on... how can he not? we saw both sides of 2 face already... and he was a pretty sane reasonable villain in TDK... killed the people responsible for rachel... i guess towards the end he seemed to be losing his grip on things moreso by going after gordon and his family... whos left for him to go after?

    will he just keep going after the corrupt cops of gotham? or does he have some grudge against batman now? whom he owes his life to?

    guess i just cant picture what will happen so id rather write him off alltogether...
