Summing it up with YUMMMM!!!

Being the self-respecting geek that I am, I have always had such a weakness for the bad boys. I also have a deep and abiding love for comic book characters (and villains) turned movie magnets. The latest addition to the comic book villain turned movie star to hit my radar is Heath Ledger as the Joker in the upcoming version of Batman.

While he makes for quite a spectacle of dis-respectability, Heath Ledger looks to turn in a stellar performance as a somewhat psychotic Joker. Sorry Jack, there's something about Heath's voice that simply sends shivers down my spine. It doesn't matter how much makeup they attempt to hide his stunning face, there is little they can do to stop the appeal of his voice. Which actually makes him very attractive as The Joker.

Of course you shouldn't take my word for it. See for yourself. This movie is definitely on my list of must see movies for 2008. I can hardly stand the wait. At least after watching this trailer, I'm hoping that more people will be as eager as I am for the finished product.
