Bill Skarsgard should be the Joker.

Here we go. Another reboot. Might be interesting with Bill Skarsgard. But still… originality, Hollywood? Can we? Lol

 

[Johnny Utah]

He would have been a great Joker. I don't know what that thing Matt Reeves conjured is.

If it's based on the graphic novel, cool. If it's a remake of the '94 film or another entry in that universe, pass.

I'm sure it'll start described by the filmmakers like most modern movies with buzzwords.

Gritty
Grounded
Real world take
Back to the roots
Never before seen
Honoring what came before

Then studio meddling will give us a shoddy final product. See Hellboy and Morbius for examples of this.

You forgot:

Represents our truth
Won't read the source material or watch the movie'

Halo is another example of this. I think the producers admitted that didn't look at the games at all.

Oh boy Really not sure what they were thinking with this look? Brandon Lee Eric Draven is untouchable in my book, so this movie was already in trouble and that pic isn’t helping

 

[JacktheRipper]

He needs "damaged" tattooed on his forehead.

 

[Dave_W]

'Nipple eye'......

Yeah but mullets are soooo in right now.

Can't believe that after all the ridiculous sequels, this is getting a 2024 reboot and it looks even further from the source material.

Would it kill them to just adapt the book? Make it an '80s period piece and use the aesthetics of the time for these characters. I don't know why Hollywood feels the need to modernize everything -- and why their idea of modernization is face and nipple tats. Pretty much confirms they're trying to make zoomer bait with this one.

 

[Johnny Utah]

Yup looks terrible.

Exactly. Could be so good if they did that

 

[ScoutingForToys]

I know we shouldn't judge it too harshly based on so little but for crying out loud that looks terrible.

For making this crappy looking reboot=

Makes me appreciate what Lee and Proyas did so much more. It was unusually faithful for such an early comic book film. Still not quite the vibe of the book, but a lot closer than anyone seems interested in doing now.
