well well well. everyone is talking bout comic super hero right now, batman, hellboy, even the hype of spidey still around, not to forget incredible hulk, and just not too long ago, iron man, remake of 70's spy comedy 'get smart' and so on….

adam west – 60's Batman… classic

since this post is about the dark knight, i am just gonna talk about that huge bat here… after adam west finally taken the role of the cape crusader in the 60's and 70's (before adam west, there were few more versions which i do not know and never watched before) , michael keaton was the first to bring batman on to the big screen in 1989 “BATMAN”.

michael keaton – Batman 1989,

michael keaton – Batman Returns 1992

i enjoyed watching both keaton's Batman, as the story line was great, the bat mobile were so impressive, PLUS PLUS PLUS, Danny Elfman's sound track was simply WOW! the movie were so ALIVE. In addition, vicky vale (forgot the actress name), and michele pfeiffer as cat woman…very nice casting. i also like Joker's side kick ~ Bob, very very cute and noti (he was killed by joker near the end of the movie). and the most famous quote in the movie ~ Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?” oh, and i just remembered, the songs from the movie were performed by PRINCE! What a perfect match all the way, even the MTV, simply awesome!….. “Oh I got a life in here…. heee heee heee heee.. haaa haa haaa. huu huuu huuu…..”

val kilmer – Batman Forever 1995

Later followed by val kilmer, and finally geroge clooney. off all these batties…. i would say keaton was the best, especially when he put up a real piece of masterclass act against the then joker jack nicholson. After the earlier batman movies, then came Batman Begins, and now The Dark Knight.

george clooney – Batman and Robin 1998

i should say both Batman Begins and The Dark Knight failed to ignite the dark side of Gotham city and thus lack of the classic nostalgic comical feel and dark humour along the movie. For those who thought the dark knight was the best of the series… check out 1989 Batman, directed by Tim Burton – the king of dark movies…. sorry for those The Dark Knight die hard fans, i wil only rate a two star for this movie. while keaton's version was far more impressive getting 4.5 stars, and take note that 1989 and 2008 are 20 years apart, see how Burton did Batman 20 years ago…. less visual effects, less make up, less gimmicks….

christian bale – Batman Begins, The DarkKnight (2008)

ledger (RIP) was really impressive in The Dark Night, but if take off the more advance make-up, then compared to nicholson, nicholson gives me more feeling of a “happy-smile-face-killer” (which the joker should be), rather than ledger's chaotic psycho.

ok… seemed my point of copy cat is drifting away…. ledger was a really good actor as the joker in The Dark Knight (sorry, i still prefer nicholson)… then, something just came up through my mind, like i have seen this joker before… after thinking, and thinking, and thinking… then i know…. leh mah….. joker's new image was copied from…
