Hot Toys- Batman Begins:Batman Demon & Scarecrow spec and pics

[DiFabio]

You were slurping a little too much Ledger ____ before though bro. Just saying.

 

[wbss21]

Naw, I wasn't. I was just trying to defend him because Devil and few other knuckleheads don't know how to show a little respect to the deceased. I never said he was the best actor ever, and I never claimed he was great in any films other then the ones he was great in. People just be hatin' on Heath because he stole Jack Nicholson's thunder or something.

See, I don't even know how this happens.

I looked back in this thread and we were all talking about how bad the character of Rachel was in Begins and TDK. That and of course Maggie Gyllenhaal.

Then it somehow turned into a Heath Ledger memorial/praise thread.

I then went into the Hot Toys 1989 Batman thread and noticed the exact same thing. I just don't understand how the conversations always turn into Heath Ledger/TDK Joker, I really don't.

Probably because they've pinned up too many Ledger posters that a normal life is no more.

We're still in the beginning stages of this syndrome, this is what will inevitably happen next.

Denial:


Peeps here aren't going to believe this, but I'm actually friends with Heath Ledger. He didn't even die. He was a recluse and decided he didn't want to be in the spotlight anymore and faked his own death.

I talk to him every now and then, he's a few rooms away in the special detolf I created for him.

Ya man same thing happened to me. When I left everyone was Gallic about Maggie G then I headed over the Tron threads, then came back hoping to see how ppl where getting just scarecrow or demon bats and how much but instead there's nothing but back and forth Heath Ledger talk. I'm not hating on Heath by no means but I wish there was something else we could talk about over here. Guess not though Heath Ledger/TDK Joker is somehow bound to come up in every thread and destroy said thread for a time being I guess

How are you getting this bud? And what exactly is retail for this? All I can remember is ppl jammering about what they would and wouldn't pay for this set but have yet to hear a solid price

 

[Maglor]

This thread has got everything, a little trolling, a hint of bigotry, a splash of nerd rage and a fistful of joker. What's not to love.

You.........

 

[Maglor]

How does me pointing out your obvious, delusional worship and nut hugging of Heath Ledger equal hating myself!?

I think YOU might hate me since I'm sane and not living in crazy world with you where Heath Ledger is "teh best and most greatest actor EVV-OR!!!1!!!".

See I'm unbiased so I can be honest about things. Heath Ledger gave a great and memorable performance in TDK as The Joker. And he gave a great and memorable performance in Brokeback Mountain. But he also made a lot of crappy movies in his career where his performance was garbage. Ledger didn't have a long list of great films and great performances on his acting resume. And anyone who says differently (like you) is clearly on his ectoplasmic balls.

So enjoy the ghostly sack ride Egon Spengler.

you really can be an insufferable SOB Devil.


This guy you're picking on has given solid arguments. He's not arguing that Heath is the best actor ever. He's just saying that he's a great actor. He's mentioned other movies than TDK and BB Mountain, but you haven't acknowledged that once (unless I missed it). He also has made the point that the material in the movies you list as 'sucking' was at fault, and Heath did the best he could with it. As soon as he was given a better role he ran with it. It's far more logical to assume that trend would continue than to assume that he would be given more lame roles in lame movies. Still speculation, but I'm just sayin'.

 

[DiFabio]

Maglor, you do know that this Ledger Joker crap is all your doing don't you? Not all across the board but in this particular thread.

Well, logic escapes certain individuals, lol.

Yeah.. you missed it.

By that rationale EVERY actor is a "great actor" then. Jamie Kennedy is a great actor it's just the material in the movies EVERYONE lists as 'sucking' was at fault, and Jamie did the best he could with it. Right?

Well, logic escapes certain individuals, lol.

Especially when they have Heath Ledger's ghostly balls in their mouths.
