Scratch

Here you will find older scratches, musings and other detritus that once were located on the front pages, but have now faded.

Filed away here to collect dust and cobwwwebs in perpetuity, links may break, facts may change and data may corrupt.

On occasion I may come down here to tidy, but for the most, I prefer to leave the past where it lies.

 

Joker

Not sure if its legit, as it doesn't redirect to the WB site like the main site The Dark Knight or I believe in Harvey Dent, but if it is, it appears we have a promo image of the Joker at I believe in Harvey Dent Too.

Whether or not it proves to be genuine, I am not sure what I make of it. Not saying I don't like it, just not what I expected. I can see why its moved away from the comics, to something more realistic, grittier, scarier and certainly more believable that Nicholson's permafix grin. I am just a bit worried that it might be a bit too horror around the mouth and this will detract from his pschopathic nature usually emphasised by the eyes, if that is indeed what they are going for.

Unfortunately when I looked at it, I was immeadiately reminded of, and have a think before you carry on reading, (spoiler text) [link]Jame Gumb [/link] from Silence of the Lambs. As such I keep having images of the Joker torturing Batman uttering "It rubs the lotion on its skin, or else it gets the hose again", and for no apparent reason I keep thinking of the awefulness of Batman and Robin, although this is probably something to do with Joel Schumacher and the wonder of the Bat Nipples. Bastard. That film will haunt me to my grave, and I will be really peeved if its horribleness impinges on a potentially awesome fim. But I digress. Do you agree?

Guess we will have to wait and see.

Edit: 24 May 2007: The image has been removed and replaced by the words 'See you in December'. You can see the original image in this popup.
