Well… for whatever reason, people are criticizing the Heath Ledger’s look as the Joker in the 2008 release of the Dark Knight.  Whatever.  People need something to bitch about.  Yeah he’s wearing make-up and the Joker doesn’t, but so what.  At some point he’s going to have to fall into a vat of chemicals at Ace Chemical Processing Inc. in order for it to be a permanent fixture. 

But catch this tidbit on the movie.

“The Dark Knight begins with the Joker robbing a huge bank (we’ve seen photos of this everywhere). The bank is where the mob and all the gangs in Gotham keep all of their money. The Joker takes this money and holds it “ransom”. The Joker then says to the mob and the gangs of Gotham, “If you help me take down Batman, you’ll get your money back. If not, I’m going to burn it all.” This is how the Joker assembles his army to take down Batman.”

Hey… good enough for me.

Bruce: “I knew the mob wouldn’t go down without a fight… but this is different.  They crossed a line.”

Alfred:  “You crossed the line first sir. You hounded them, and in their desperation they turned to a man they didn’t fully understand….”

“… Some men aren’t looking for anything logical.  They can’t be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with…”

“…Some men just want to watch the world burn.”

Joker: “Starting tonight, people will die. I’m a man of my wooorda!  Mua Ha Ha Ha!!”
