'Potential'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
everybody would be talking about how Gary Oldman's performance was so amazing, and he was just fully absolutely Jim Gordon
It's certainly been talked about here, both about TDK and Batman (heh, I accidentally type Bartman) Begins (I know ita was a big fan).
That was one of those bits of casting that had me going "Oooo-kay?" when it was first announced, but dear dog he's given it everything you'd want for Jim Gordon and more.
An interesting article on Entertainment's Greatest Voices.
Between Prick Up Your Ears, Romeo Is Bleeding, True Romance, and Dracula, I was fairly confident that Oldman's range encompasses just about anything ever conceived by a screenwriter.
Don't forget Sid & Nancy
And Rosencrantz & Guildenstern.

True dat. I just hadn't seen him in much for a while, and was worried if he'd kept his mad acting skills in shape. Was HP&PoA before or after BB? Because if it was after, I think the last thing I'd seen him in was Lost In Space and nuff said.
Note to oldies fans: Tomorrow night at 10 Eastern, TCM is showing Bombshell. In which Jean Harlow throws the definitive screen temper tantrum.
I was skimming the Dark Knight dvd, because I ain't in the mood for torture just yet, and hit a couple of Batman scenes where Christian Bale's batvoice is hi-sterically bad and unintelligible and I just flashed onto that awesome youtube mockery of it, which made me laugh even harder.
Yeah, it was weird and off-putting in a movie where the other effects were "real" to have the batvoice So oddly CG enhanced.
Is Alfred's background with the SAS as presented in the movie canon?
Actually, I believe that in comics canon, Alfred was MI-6.
