It looks like Heath Ledger really did his thing in the new Batman movie. While checking out the Drudge Report I came across an urgent release that made this prediction. Myself, not having seen the movie cannot give my opinion on the matter. However, I would not be surprised if he does take home the Oscar due to his untimely death. I have been a fan of the Batman movies; or, at least the good ones (Batman, Batman Returns, Batman Begins). What I really want to see is how good old Heath compares to Jack Nicholson’s rendition of the role in the first Batman movie. Granted I was about eight years old when this movie came out I can still remember his most stellar performance. As a matter of fact, I think I’ll rent Batman this weekend and re-watch it. The quotes along are the best. Who can forget the famous, “Who are you?” . . . “I’m Batman” and “Have you ever danced with the devil under a pale moon light” lines? I know that after almost two decades later I can’t. I’m excited to see this movie and will be checking it out and will be providing my feedback shortly thereafter.
I really think the movie overall will be a good one and it seems like the Hollywood studios have really stepped their game up with the super hero movies. I grew up reading Batman, Spider-man (my favorite hero), Spawn, X-Men, etc. and I can appreciate a good Hollywood adaptation. I can equally despise a horrible (i.e. Hulk circa 2003).
