I just randomly started thinking about what they were doing with the DC staples (Batman, Superman) and thinking about Heath Ledger being cast as the Joker when suddenly this thought hits me: they’re remaking the movies and the franchises so that villains have replay-ability. In Batman Begins, the Scarecrow (Cillian Murphy) didn’t die and comic readers KNOW that we haven’t seen the last of Ra’s Al Ghul (Liam Neeson). In Superman Returns, Luthor wasn’t killed. Wasn’t he? I forget. But anyways: by essentially re-doing the Joker, they’re probably going to get him incarcerated at Arkham Asylum so he can break out every couple of weeks and raise hell, which is incredibly cool. Just thought I’d share my thought with the world, in case it cares.
