the most amoral people are ussually the ones shouting most lopudly about family values and morality. it is their costume. It allows them to be as evil and base as possible without tipping anyone off, because most the average person is fairly dumb, and half the population is EVEN DUMBER THAN THAT!

Yes, if anything 100%, but there's an interesting story there. I remember reading an interview with someone at 2000AD talking about the reasons why they created him, which were exactly as you describe. What they soon discovered, though, going to conventions and reading fan-mail, was that fans overwhelmingly took him straight, and loved him for it. The more fascist the writers made him in an attempt to try and stop the hero-worship, the more popular he became, to the extent they even toyed with dropping him altogether. |

Heath Ledger's Joker was so off the fucking charts I simply cannot even BEGIN TO BEGIN to imagine how anybody could measure up to his performance. (And talk about range: from Ennis Del Mar to The Joker — WHO has that kind of scope nowadays?). Jack Nicholson, by the by, was a PATHETIC Joker, probably the worst performance of his career (well, he did do that horseshit with Adam Sandler...), and my take on why is that he simply didn't understand the character — he read the script, which, retrospectively, was pretty goddamn weak; he talked to Burton, who obviously wouldn't tell Jack fuckin' Nicholson what to do; and maybe one of his minions slip him a Batman comic book of the shitty kind.

I also always thought nicholson's Joker was half-assed.
Ledger's Joker was good, but the Joker is supposed to be inscrutable, and the Batman is never ever aware of his motivations or what makes him tick, which is why he is such an irrational foe...Ledger's joker was portrayed awesome. Too bad Christian Bale has no real menace in his portrayal of batman, and I HATE HIS FUCKING SHIT VOICE GROWL especially since I never thought Batman had a lisp.

Adam West saved the batman comics. they were tanking in sales and importance until the TV show.

Well, at least you recognize the brilliance of Ledger. It's no contest. No Fucking contest. Nicholson might even have been worse than Leto. Doesn't matter. They're not even in Heath's fucking GALAXY. Fuckers. |

I'm gonna answer my own question: Vincent D'Onofrio. Private Leonard "Gomer Pyle" Lawrence -> Detective Robert Goren -> Edgar the Bug.

He's played a lot of different roles, but he's settled into type at this point. And he never played any of them particularly well. I mean, he's not bad, but he's not great. Daniel Day Lewis has the kind of range you're talking about. Christian Bale is not to be overlooked either. I think he's going for kind of a modern Deniro kind of thing. Or maybe Pacino. His Batman role was his most boring and straight-forward by far. Look at American Psycho > The Machinist > the Fighter > American Hustle > the Big Short. He's really quite something. There was another actor who came to mind, but I lost the thread when I was masturbating all over Christian Bale just now. Hmm... |

D'onofrio was excellent in Full Metal Jacket, but that's more because everything in that film was excellent. He did what he was told, and he did it well. Still not a brilliant performance, just a really memorable character and a particularly mind-blowing segment of a near-perfect film. Re: Shannon (that is Michael Shannon, yeah?) he's very good, but not the best out there. And yeah, Amy Adams annihilates just about everyone. Tidal Swinton is something else too. As is Cate Blanchet. But Amy... oh, Amy. |

Wait, how is Tilda Swinton linked to Jay-Z? I genuinely have no idea, or if I do I've forgotten and it's been pushed to the absolute back of my brain. I known of no degrees of Kevin Bacon between Tilda and Jay or between Tilda and Kanye. ![]() Also, I'm really not that big into Jay anymore, and I don't think I talk about him much at all anymore. He has a new album coming, so I'm fervently hoping it isn't a disappointment, so I've mentioned him recently, but it's not as though I talk about Jay Z with any kind of regularity here. Kanye? Yeah. Kendrick? But Jay Z? Not in a while mon frere... not in a while. Also shut up! ![]() |

Oh you dickhead. I'm using my phone, and the last word I typed that was similar to that was TIDAL. Haha. That is funny that I did that though. Here I thought you were going to point out some connection between Tilda (it just auto-corrected to "Tulsa" this time) and Jay Z -- like maybe Tilda was in this or that video, or is suspected of having slept with Jay behind Beyoncé's back... and I was totally going to be like, "Looks like YOU'RE the one who's obsessed... I had no clue about any of that!" Bahahaha! Also, it seems weird that the only possible explanations you're willing to entertain for this typo are that A) I've "finally lost it" due to my obvious Tell Tale Heart-level psychotic obsession with... Jay Z and his dumb music service that I don't use, OR B) "what the fuck." Dickhead. ![]() |
