On a talk show George Cloney even said he played the character as if he was gay, that was why they had the nipples. Christian Bale was a much more realistic version, dealing with terrorists and poison gas things that could actually happen.

This is a more realistic portrayal of the Batman world, not Tim Burton's disneyworld colored spectacle of a movie. A real sociopath might really go to Kmart and slather some halloween make-up on his face, and then go run amok on the streets killing people. That is far more disturbing a thought, than some guy falling into a vat of magic toxic waste that turns their face into a cartoon. Puh-leeze. This is the reason people like this new envisioning of the Batman movie. Because it seems more possible- therefore, engaging- yet outlandish all at the same time. Batman Begins blew other comic book movies right out their glowing water. And The Dark Knight is going to be awesome in it's own right.

But to be honest, the press and promotions can exagerrate on things but that's what makes us want to watch the film, correct? Before anyone judges on what Heath Ledger will or won't look like just wait until the film comes out. But you don't have to listen to me, as I'm only 16! Just on a friendly note, don't judge a book by it's cover. Basically, I think that everyone should be grateful that they’re even starting afresh.

because he apparently doesnt know anything about batman.

but the supposed official image looks ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE, he looks really fat
and he isnt even smiling!, i agree with Bob , if warner bros have been scouring
the internet they should go with something more like:

http://www.mansonusa.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=47798

or better yet :http://www.themovieblog.com/archives/Heath-Joker.jpg

because those look much better, if at least more sinister

oh and even though tim burtons were great .at least when i was a child,
forever and ‘and robin’ sucked humongous @?}!

I mean, if I wanted to keep a character's look a secret, what better way than to placate nosey photographers by having somebody wander around my set looking exactly how they expect? Having seen the Conrad Veidt photoshop poster (http://www.mansonusa.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=47798), I want nothing more than to see a Joker that looks like that.

I wonder, with all the debate over the mysterious presence of Anthony Michael Hall on the cast list, if the unnamed character he is to play is actually the Joker, and we're all being deliberately mislead. The selection of a controversial actor to announce as playing the part, someone glaringly inappropriate, someone all us fanboys would vehemently disapprove of...only to pull the rug out from under our feet at the last moment.

The Forever suit had nipples...NIPPLES for God's sake. I'm going to have to say that Begins is the best of the batman movies, as it brutally kills the campy crap that was too prevalent in the previous iterations. Dark Knight looks more promising than any of the other sequels of old. What’s with the guy that thinks that the Batsuit in Batman Forever is better than the grounded,
