    This is getting out of control. How many of you are, or no people who are going as Heath Ledger from the Dark Knight?
    Talking to my mate working in Forbidden Planet and he says they've been constantly selling out of Joker outfits, wigs etc for the past month.

    Dress up as Batman and kick the **** out of every last one of them. That'll learn 'em. Or dress up as Heath Ledger post-overdose.

    It's been 7 years so I think the world is ready.

    There'll be a lot of Joker costumes alright. If you're looking for a way to stand out from the rest, how about this?

    Ha! Way ahead of you Jango. Went as the Scarecrow a few years ago. My tip would not to use an actual burlap sack for the face. It itches the face off you.

    Even if it's as the Joker Nurse, it's still not that original.

    I'm going as Alice in Wonderland :) The Joker will be unavoidable unfortunately. Just like how last year everyone went "80s"...that's not a real fukcing costume!

    LOL

    My best friend dressed up as the Joker for a party on Wednesday night. It took him 20 minutes to get a taxi, nobody wanted to pick him up! :D

    He's already planning to use the same costume for Hallowe'en.

    i loved the joker in the dark knight but every geebag out there will be thinkin "i know ill go as the joker, no one else will think of that" which will result in thousands of jokers around the country at halloween.

    i think ill just burn off one side of my face and go as two-face. itll hurt like hell, but at least it will be original.

    My plan is make sew and staple the burlap onto a balaclava, it'll keep it shape better and not itch like a mother****er, where can I get burlap material by the way?
