While I think it is very creepy, and cool, I'm thinking my kid may have to sit this one out, and that will kill him. I had trepidations about taking him to see Begins. I'll just have to wait and see...
I'm sure Mattel will market the hell out of this either way, making it even harder to tell him "It's too scary buddy."

PG-13 or not, I'm thinking the Joker may be too frightening for my kid. I'm not saying they should change it to suit me, but they are walking a fine line with going too dark for kids under 12 or so. The major Batman fan in me loves it, loves the respect for the material Nolan has. The dad in me says "oh crap. My kid is really going to want to see that, but it will give him nightmares for a month'.

i hear you Chris. we had this thread before on the old board--i'm NOT a Dad, but i would love it if they could ramp down the intensity just a touch, but that pic of Ledger--while admittedly VERY COOL--doesnt seem to be going in that lighter direction. hell, that picture gives ME the creeps.
again, it feels oddly inappropriate for them to make action figures (which of course they will) of The Joker when he looks like a character out of Se7en.

While I certainly understand your point of view as a dad, as a non-dad I gotta say I'm totally psyched about this. Maybe a little selfish, but I hope Nolan will make the Joker a total raving lunatic. While I have much respect for Nicholson's portayal as the Prince of Crime he just wasn't insane enough, if you know what I mean.
feel I the need to reiterate that along with the pretty stock "Gotham getting
poisoned " plot the whole pre-costume buncha stuff falling flat for me is
what cinched my "average" rating----
Now...regarding The Dark Knight...
With the pre-costume stuff outta the way and one of the sickest criminals
in the DCU starring in this Dark Knight flick
EVEN tho' I'm more a fan of "light-hearted" Batman stuff ala
Nicholson's portrayal I STILL will concede that if Dark Knight can give
the Joker a persona akin to Hannibal Lecter, a creepy "adult contructed"
persona that is truly engrossing----then I'd be curious
to see this Dark Knight get darker than lighter----
Of course the one thing that'd concern me in that scenario is keeping
the intrigue of the Batman characters full force for smaller children in pop culture,
but as someone pointed out in that other thread on this subject----that's
what the Batman TV shows are for I guess"No. No no no no no no. You done got me talkin' politics. I didn't wanna'. Like I said y'all, I'm just happy to be alive. I think I'll scoot over here right by this winda', let this beautiful carriage rock me to sleep, and dream about how lucky I am." - Chris MannixComment

Wow that's pretty creepy, I have wondered how they'd handle the Joker as he could camp things up.
I can't bring my son to these regardless so I'm not really that bummed out, the first Spider-man freaks him out. I do feel for dads on the fence but as a silver lining maybe it'll turn out to be not so bad.
People ask me why I like the FF movie, it's definitely because I took my son to it.Places to find PlaidStallions online: https://linktr.ee/Plaidstallions
