I read today that in the Batman Begins sequel (yes, they're already plotting out the sequel when the first one isn't even out yet...or is it out yet? I'm so deprived...), the Joker will be the villain.
Read more about my Batman thoughts, which are pretty fanboy-ish


Apparently there are some names being tossed around for the role, and when I read the three names so far - as Dale so poetically says - my brain stopped. First is Lachy Hulme, who I've never heard of, so whatever. But next on the list? Crispin "Thin Man" Glover!! How awesome would that be? What could beat that?

Well I'll tell you want could beat that - MARK HAMILL. Hamill voiced the Joker on the classic Batman: The Animated Series show back in the early-to-mid 90s, and is one of the main reasons I'm such a fan of the series. His Joker laugh is just....too, too perfect. If Hamill was cast as the Joker, I think I'd mark out as big as the first time I see Starscream on the big screen in the TF movie.

Geek enough for you?

Also read in the paper that a movie is being planned about Mark Felt, who is of course the infamous Watergate "Deep Throat." This make sense. I mean, it's one of the biggest political stories in US history. It'd probably be pretty interesting to hear his side of the story, and how events transpired for him.

However, know what doesn't make sense? The fact that there's also a TV movie in the works about Jennifer Wilbanks, that lame runaway bride woman. Am I missing something here? Why is this news? Why would anyone even remotely care about some stupid woman's idiocy? And what the hell is with her fiance? You know, a good indication your marriage is going to be the shits - WHEN SHE RUNS AWAY.

Mel feels the same way.
