Ohh...I like the thought of that!

This may not be a good fit, but I wonder how he'd look all prostheticed up as the classic Joker. He's probably not thin enough, but the Joker's suppose to be 6'5". I'd love to see the Joker towering over the Bat a little bit. Make him more imposing.

It'd be awesome to have the Joker play some role in the JL movie...

LOL! Armand Hammer literally "is", "Arm and Hammer"! it's no wonder he goes by Armie instead of Armand. That is hilarious! And, y'know, now that I'm thinking about it, with a name like that, he should have been bulked up and chosen to play the part of Thor.

Oh I didn't even put 2 and 2 together, you're right.

I guess there is some relevance to his ridiculous name.... his father is chairman and CEO of the Armand Hammer Foundation and his mother is a board member of the foundation. I wonder if thats the same as Arm and Hammer?

I guess there is a connection. According to Wikipedia Armie was named after his grandfather Armand Hammer who "owned a considerable amount of Church and Dwight stock in the 1980s and served on its board of directors. The company's brand name, Arm & Hammer, did not originate with Armand Hammer. The Arm & Hammer brand was in use some 31 years before Hammer was born."

Knowing that makes this even stranger then. His grandfather owned stock and served on the board of directors for Arm & Hammer and his name just happened to be Armand Hammer. Talk about bizarre.

I love strange little twists like this. It keeps things interesting!

It will, just a matter of time.

Simon Pegg is obviously just kidding around. But remember it was just one photo of Vin Diesel in front of a Avengers comic at the Marvel office that sent sites into a frenzy.

So sites will use this photo to talk about Ant-Man casting in general, even though they realize Simon Pegg is just messing around.
