thehefnerOh, also: I keep hearing people wondering, "How are they possibly going to top this?" I was wondering it to--and putting aside ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dryponder's compelling arguments as to how introducing Robin would fit into the Nolanverse--as of right now, there's only one major response:
THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS.
It would be a bold move, if only because you'd either have to recast the bulk of the stars or seriously step up with convincing old age makeup effects. Also, they'd need to keep the newly-movie-giddy Frank Miller from being a bit too involved, if you know what I mean. But with WATCHMEN coming out, and on the virtual heels of THE DARK KNIGHT, it strikes me as not only logical, but essential.
Also, get Brad Dourif. He's the only actor I can possibly imagine up to the task of playing old Joker. He could take what Heath did and run with it, I have absolutely zero doubt in my mind. He is that good.
Short of that, I have no idea what they could possibly bring next. But I look forward to it.
