Maybe he is The Joker after all???
February 21st, 2007 by Eoin[Edit - It turns out the picture below is a fake. With the WB logo and all I fell for it. Apologies to all and thanks to Al for spotting it. Hopefully the real images will be as good though!]
I’m not sure that this should be a separate post but I’m so impressed with this picture that I had to make a whole new post for it.
Not sure how it got under my radar until now, but it’s here now.
Ladies and gentlemen…may I present to you…The Joker!

That’s impressive alright - but I wonder if it’s prosthetics? I mean, it doesn’t actually look like him at all.. and if it’s prosthetics, will they convince in live motion or only in still images like this one…?

They’ll probably convince as much in live motion as he does.

I’m with Bif on this one. I’m more worried about how Ledger will come across in live motion than the prosthetics. I’d still say he’s the wrong choice as that could be almost any actor under all that make-up. The image is encouraging as far as the look and feel of the film is concerned.

Where did you get the image from?

It’s a fake. The image was taken from ‘The Man Who Laughs (1928)’
Check it out.

Ah, no wonder it doesn’t look like him at all then…

How on earth did you sniff that out Al?

Just a normal image search, my Spidey senses were tingling and I heard nothing about a new Bats image on the web.
Apparently this movie was the inspiration for the Joker.
No a bad Photoshop job either! Some very talented people out there.

Yeah, it’s a good job alright… nicely spotted Al!

DOH!!!!!
A friend of mine told me about there being a picture of Heath Ledger as the Joker out there and to do a Google image search for The Dark Knight, Joker. I got it that way.

Another one

You could say that in the Information Age, you need to use skepticism, critical thinking, logic and arguments as your compas points across the web.
In other words don’t believe all you read and half you see or hear, lol.

Looks like I’m not the only one falling for fakes

But it mightn’t be all wrong. Check this out. I quite like the look of this. Not as good as the fake one I posted originally but still with the right lighting this would look great.

Another fake!
