Tell me you’re from BC without telling me you’re from BC
I’m not against a “gangster” version of the Joker, because a lot of the Batman lore is about the different gangs of henchmen so the Joker is as much a gang leader as anyone else. AND I’ll go out and say he was not the worst thing in that movie… but yeah they could have done a lot better with the casting. But hey, still better than Eisen-Luthor!
Honestly, Leto was fine. The “gangster” joker was just too childish an interpretation, and his dialogue was just goofy. It wasn’t a cohesive character. The design was so over the top terrible that it looped back around. The tattoos always get me giggling.
That’s what I liked about Heath’s, remove the make up, it’s just some crazy guy like Trevor from GTAV. Or Jack on the contrary who went theatrical as a show man, like a clown is, but take the make up off and he’d probably totally chill and blend in.
Jared Leto seems to have a knack for doubling-down on bad execution instead of reviewing and refining.
Let’s see Paul Allen’s Joker. Ohh I guess we did.
Is that the voice actor of Charlie the unicorn?
Ye, the crew produced videos relatively prolifically until they produced nothing for a few years. You may also recognize him from such roles as Chris Brown and an assortment of cats.
I like to think of it as “So close but so far”
If it was just a little bit different in a lot of ways it could have been epic. I think the biggest thing that hamstrung it was the sheer lack of any origin grounding to explain the why of it.
Is this more of a ‘fuck Jared Leto’ thread?
Always.
As much as he might deserve it for his personality, no, my comments here are genuinely because I just didn’t think his version was as good as others.

But the next two movies are better. :)
Actors, always promoting their work 💀 >!/jk, love all you do here!<
Thanks! Also, you should have seen me when I was promoting Barbie here in July.
I did, I have interacted with you before! Still no autographs sent my way 🥺
The coolest image of the Joker in my ranking is the drawn Joker from this poster. In the old cartoon series, he most closely resembles the embodiment of evil and inadequacy.
The 90s cartoon series is my favorite iteration of Batman by far.

maybe leto’s version should be called JONKER
While it might not be the most popular opinion, I personally appreciated Leto’s interpretation of the Joker. He’s no Heath Ledger, of course, but considering how often the character has been brought to life, I thought Leto’s performance was at least unique.
For me, it was too brief to even count as an interpretation. I don’t get how people can compare Leto’s performance to Ledger’s or Phoenix’s, simply because of how much more there is to the latter two’s, not even taking into account artistic quality or interpretation.
It was supposed to be a franchise. Honestly, it’s not like Leto was bad as the Joker, it’s his off screen antics and the rest of the movie being absolute trash that killed the reception.
But I also don’t really mind Joker being a bit of a fuckboi. There are two perfect Jokers, Ledger and Hamill, and no one will be able to top them, so you might as well try something new.
Missing Cameron Monaghan
Technically never called the joker, but yeah
I don’t think the problem with Leto’s Joker was Leto, but the production and the script
He’s not wrong. Leto joker turned a nuanced and intelligent villain into an edgy Facebook teen going through a phase. All the interesting subtlety washed out in place of “damaged” tattoos
Joker
Nuanced and intelligent
Okay, sure, we can pretend Ledger’s Joker is the only depiction of him ever.
Not You really looks like a

Where is Greg?
Leto’s joker was the best joker.
I really hope you’re being sarcastic here.
He made himself the greatest joke ever.
Agree. Second best character ever. Only Schwarzenegger’s Mr Freeze was better.
Dudes will post anything here…
