Thank goodness!

(I had a FEELING that it wasn't Heath Ledger....not skinny enough.)

Also, if you look closely, his "back hair" (brunette) doesn't match the rest of his hair (green.)

But HOLY CRAP I would pay so much to see a Batman musical. That's just too hilarious to pass up.

....Speaking of musicals, in case anyone was wondering there's already been a Superman musical....

Joblo did this response to the fake Joker in its logo today.

Um, Vi...that was Heath Ledger.

Just not as the Joker...?

Somewhere else, Vi was talking about Robin Williams and his Disney relationship.

Seem's he's okay with the Mouse House now, as he's just signed up to star in what is ostensibly a follow-up to "Wild Hogs":

"Robin Williams has signed on to star opposite John Travolta in "Old Dogs," a Walt Disney Co. comedy being directed by Walt Becker. Also joining the cast is Travolta's wife, Kelly Preston, and daughter, Ella Travolta.

"Dogs" is a buddy comedy revolving around two best friends and business partners whose lives are turned upside down when they find themselves in the care of 7-year-old twins."

Can't you see the eventual DVD two-pack now? "The Travolta Wild Hogs and Old Dogs Edition!"

Still, I wish Robin would go back to animation....meaning Disney animation. I doubt he would ever set foot within five miles of DWA, but you never know.

It reminds me of some old incarnation of Michael Jackson, like, maybe five or six facelifts ago??

Suprise!

Not.

But what about the ACTORS?

Post by **Ben** » April 27th, 2007, 7:20 am

They'll be back.

They're currently playing the hard to get line. Saying "oh it's the end of the line for me" or "Well the story would have to be good" or "I'd love to do more but we'll have to see" is basically chit-chat for "Sony better hike up our pay to stupid figures".

That's all. And when this comes out and does massive business, then Sony will pay them what they want and we'll have a few more films.

Sadly, I wish this had been sorted before the end of 3 comes out since they'd be in a better position to let more threads loose into the next ones.

I have a feeling this will feel very "closed off" at the end, while leaving the door open ajar, but not the wide open "come on in" that we got at the end of 2.

Can't be! That is some of the most dissapointing news I have heard this year. They should have stopped after 2. 2 was an improvement on 1, and 3 might be better. But they should stop at 3. They're flogging a dead horse in my opinion.

I have mixed feelings...

But mostly I agree bawpcwpn, 3 is ENOUGH.
