We honestly couldn't tell at first!

Mickey Rourke looks like he stumbled out of a cardboard box and into the tanning bed!

Mickey caught some fake rays at a tanning salon in Los Angeles this weekend and didn't bother to spruce himself up for the occasion.

We hope he bathed!

He claims he was "The Joker", but we don't see it!

Mickey Rourke was seen celebrating Halloween at Voyeur nightclub in El Lay Thursday night.

You don't look like the Joker at all! Where's your red face paint and green hair-dye?

Looks to us like you're channeling an overzealous "Tony Montana"…or your former self!

He wouldn't even apologize!

After reports surfaced of an inebriated Mickey Rourke firing back at a reporter for claiming that he was dating Evan Rachel Whore, he unleashed a few unkind words.

And now, he's defending them!

"She's a good friend, that's it. And tell that f***ot who wrote all that shit in the paper I'd like to break his f****** legs," Rourke said last November.

When he was asked about the statement on Sunday, he refused to take back the statement.

"I don't really give a f***. Life's too short," he said. "I have more gay friends than any 50 straight people I know, so I don't really give a s***. I meant what I said."

Oh, really?!

Considering he called Sean Penn "one of the most homophobic people I know," we think his ignorance may extend further to the point that he does not know the meaning of the word.

Look it up, sugar!

We're positive he didn't get any play! Well, unless the girl was BLIND!

He's not THAT bad!

When the option to Phil Carlo's book The Ice Man: Confessions of a Mafia Contract Killer expired last month, the author denied renegotiating with Transformers producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura.

The reason? Turns out di Bonaventura was trying to woo Channing Tatum for the lead role.

Says Carlo:

"I had to turn him down. I really hated the idea of Channing Tatum. I told di Bonaventura that this is not the guy to play one of the most feared killers of the 20th Century. I think Mickey Rourke would really be good. He's got that sense of danger, and there's a similarity between the two. But it's not Channing Tatum."

The film follows Richard Kuklinski, a notorious contract killer who worked for the Gambinos and bragged about murdering over 200 men. He garnered the nickname Ice Man by blurring his victim's time of death by chilling their bodies in an industrial freezer.

If Mickey Rourke doesn't work out, what about Gary Busey?!

You may want someone that's almost really insane!

Mickey Rourke got so hot at a performance of Guys and Dolls that his shirt melted right off of him!

Seriously though, he looks a little roasted, doesn't he?

Here's Mickey working his best Brooke Hogan meets There Will Be Blood meets Hollywood strip crackerjack!

Eww!

What is going on with Mickey Rourke's chest?

Are his pecs pumped or does he have B-cup boobies?

We can't help but be grossed out by Mickey's physique and outfit as he dined at Cristoni Pizzeria in Beverly Hills yesterday.

Do us all a favor Mick and stay indoors with your shirt completely on!

Mickey Rourke in character on the set of Iron Man 2!

He plays Whiplash in the sequel to the hit film.

The character sports a power pack on his chest that looks similar to the one used by Iron Man (Robert Downey, Jr.). "The technologies are definitely related, and that's part of the core theme of the film," says director Jon Favreau.

To us, though, he looks like he belongs in Pirates Of The Caribbean 4!

Whiplash's alter ego, Ivan Vanko, is a Russian who, Favreau says, "has constructed his own version of a suit." Among the creative alterations: a pair of whips, powered by the suit's glowing chest piece, expected to keep Iron Man cracking.

Whiplash "is going to light them up," says Rourke.

This first image of the character shows the villain making an appearance at the Monaco Historic Grand Prix.

Iron May 2 comes out in May of next year.
