Hot Toy DX08 - BATMAN - The Joker (Jack Nicholson) - Specs & Pics

[Drakul]

I loved the "I'm melting!!... I'm melting!!.... Boo!"

Whilst in my opinion Heath Ledger was the best, Jack nailed the Joker. He did it a lot more accurately. I also prefer his laugh, I love his laugh.

But Mark Hamill... His Joker laugh is legendary.

*sigh* "You're just sayin' that cause Heath LeDGer diiieed."





I have very strong feelings on the subject.

I'm actually not! I really liked him as the Joker, I actually don't think I knew he was dead when I first saw it because I wasn't movie obsessed then.

It's pretty unfair to Ledger's performance to say the reason it gets such acclaim is because he died. People do gush about his performance, and the is a kneejerk reaction against the Ledger fanboys...but independent of that, it's like he can't be fairly judged for his performance.

Maybe if he didn't die, there might not be so much gushing over his performance, but for what it's worth, I knew I was in for something special when I heard "you're just a freak...like me" in the December '07 trailer, before all of the added interest since his death.

It was also nice to see him get the oscar. I loved to see "comic book" movie win for something besides the typical production design, special effects, or other techinical award. Some people will say it's just because he died and there were more deserving actors that year, but how is that different from the debate that occurs when anyone wins?

I have strong feelings on the subject too.

Well said, I for one think MJ was talented but because of his death everyone said he was amazing. That doesn't affect his performance just because he's dead. So I hate how people instantly think everyone who likes HL is one of the people who think dead people are fantastic just because they're dead

But yeah...

I didn't start it! I merely stated my preference

That aside, I love that movie! A christmas classic

 

[DiFabio]

I'd buy a Hot Toys Turbo Man, especially if it had an Arnold likeness.

 

[Jackhepburn]

Me too actually

It's mad how we've managed to turn a conversation about 1989 Batman into a conversation on Jingle All The Way

This is how my mind works. You could say I have a sort of, scatter-brain.

Oh look, a LOLZ cat!

 

[Jackhepburn]

Is that the Joker?

Anyway. I think there should be a special Golden Turboman thats a one of a kind given out to a random customer... wait, this aint no Turbo man thread... But who could resist '1/6 Hot Toys MMS DX?? Turbo-Man Full Spec & Official Photos' thread?

 

[a-dev]

No, no, no, no NO!




WE are not having this conversation again.

Someone should start a thread...with a poll. I don't think its ever been done.

 

[DiFabio]

Tell me more about this poll you speak of.

 

[klocket]

Oh my God!! When did Jack Nicklaus die??? And furthermore why'd the academy give a pro golfer an Oscar??

M.
