Doomhead=Joker vibe?


For some reason, Doomhead really reminds me of The Joker and I think it would be cool to see Doomhead play as the Joker in a dark Batman kind of movie.

Anyone else think of the Joker whenever Doomhead appears in this '31' film?

If you think Doomhead reminds you of a different person/character, then who does it remind you of?

Yep, definitely thought of The Joker. Batman movies aren't allowed to be all bloody and ultra-violent like '31' unfortunately (or fortunately for the squeamish).

I know it's a shame that the batman films can't be rated R which is funny because the Killing Joke animation movie that was released not too long ago was Rated R.

Heck, Suicide Squad should of been rated R and I'm sure the discount version will be uncut but it still should've of been rated R.

Imagine if Richard Brake (Doomhead) was casted as the Joker rather than Jared Leto in Suicide Squad.

That would of been awesome! Plus, imagine watching Richard Brake vs Jared Leto as they try to nail the audition for the Joker role.

Jared Leto might portray the manipulative side of Joker better, but Richard Brake is better suited for Joker's scary sadistic side, so I'm not sure if Brake would have been better for Suicide Squad's Joker but definitely for a Heath Ledger type of Joker.

Thought he looks more like Dracula. Punching his own face before entering the game, *beep*

I forgot about that scene because it was funny to see that Doomhead was watching that classic 'Nosferatu' film during the sex scene lol

the dude is brilliant even when he has no dialog, like as the Night King on GoT.

So true!

However, I have to admit that the "Batman: Killing Joke" movie was more entertaining to watch than the Superman/Batman film but that's just my view.

It would be interesting if "Batman: The Killing Joke" got the Rated R live-action treatment film with Richard Brake playing as The Joker of course.

Then again I feel that The Joker should take a break from appearing in films. Let's see other villains from the Batman universe get a chance to appear in films.

Coincidentally, Brake played Joe Chill in 'Batman Begins.'

As the Joker he's perfect. He wouldn't need much make up either, just paint his face white and his hair green and his natural looks would do the rest. That insane, drooling grin at the end of 31 was more like the Joker than a dozen Jared Leto's.

reply

I saw the scene where he gets ready for the game itself and he would definitely make a VERY sadistic joker, if they ever made a bloody R Rated crime drama in the vein of scarface with the joker as the main character and had Richard brake Play him, THAT would be awesome. besides the killing joke (which is also a crime drama), this could definitely pass as the vicious R Rated joker we've all been waiting for

I got a joker vibe as well.


We have what we seek, it is there all the time, and if we give it time, it will make itself known.
