Can he do it, /tv/?
>>68148275
Ledger wasn't a good Joker, he was a good psychopath in clown makeup.
>>68148392
Isn't that the definition of the Joker?
It might be interesting at least.
This joker cares much more about his appearance than previous ones, so we've got something going on.
If we're going to meme like the first response and say Hamill is the only joker, then no. If we're going to be reasonable and ask if we can get a memorable performance out, then maybe. It all depends on how the rest of SS shapes up. I'm not expecting much right now.
>>68148275
Leto is a fucking meme. This is going to be shit, probably worse than BvS but normies will eat it up because of muh Harley.
>>68148516
At the very least they've got a pretty good cast and a potentially fun amount of elements to work with (the actual SS, Joker, Batfleck). Cringey quippage aside, I at least think it might be a fun watch
If nothing else we might get a few good memes. Let's just hope they have a longer shelf life than the shit memes BvS gave us.
>>68148602
It might be fun though. BvS had a darker theme, that's why WB had to tell the production crew to reshoot Suicide Squad because it wasn't fun enough for the audience.
So can we all agree that
Ledger = great character, poor joker
and Leto = great memes, meme joker?
>>68148392
So he was a good Joker, then.
>>68148473
>The Joker
>Joker
he was missing something y'know.
>>68148392
Wow, you're so deep.
You totally understand comics, and how the Joker is "supposed" to be.
The best Joker is Nicholson one.

>>68148275
he will be a good actor, in a good costume, in a terrible movie. Wasted potential just like everything else in recent DC
>>68148473
>>68148748
kinda but Ledger's Joker didn't seem to have much fun and that's the whole point of the character.
>>68148473
Ledger never showed any class, he was crazy for crazies sake.
Joker is theatrical he is a showman, he wants all attention on him.
Ledger walks into a room: rambles and talks like a mad man
The Joker walks into a room: greets everyone like a well mannered showman but ultimately wants to kill all of them and is out of his mind.
Thats how I see it anyway.
>>68148771
what exactly is good about this
>>68148636
>might be a fun watch
I doubt it, but I watch a fair amount of dark comedies that a PG-13 rating won't let them go for.
It will probably be watchable, and it can't ruin anything good because nothing good exists (unlike TFA), but I will probably end up okay.
I know the bar scene the trailers have is getting some hate, but it could be okay. I like when they sit the actors down and have them joke a bit in character. Especially with the actors they have, I'd be surprised if they didn't slip some improv in somewhere. The shaving conversation in Last Tango in Paris was great.
>>68148814
I dunno, when Batman was beating him up in interrogation he was laughing a lot, he seemed to enjoy fucking with Batman.
Leto looks fine though. I'm interested to see his take on the character.
>>68148275
>LOOK AT THE TOP OF HIS HEAD!
>>68148392
>muh generic /co/nvention
Fuck off back to /co/mblr you anti art pleb
>>68148880
Not much, the best Joker scene in that movie is when he fries the guy with his electricity hand zapper thing. That was the "oh fuck" moment.
>>68148875
>Joker is theatrical he is a showman, he wants all attention on him.
Did you not see that part when he crashed Wayne's party and told his "wanna know how I got these scars?" story?
He was talking to everyone there like he was on stage.
>>68148926
i think the only scene in that movie that really conveyed comic book Joker was when he was filming the bat-imposter while making fun of him
I think he seems fine so far in the trailers.
>>68148275
Isn't the Joker supposed to be older than Batman and very ugly? I don't get what DC is trying to do here.
Someone like the Green Goblin actor would be much better.
>>68149005
Thats the very scene I was talking about when mentioning how he "rambles on about "LOOK HOW FUCKED UP I AM" speeches.
I promise everyone after Leto and even a few other actors in the future play Joker we will all look back at Ledgers Joker and see a great character but ultimately NOT the Joker.
>>68149099
it's not the original Joker, it's Jason Todd
>>68149099
>"20 years in Gotham, how many good guys are left"
>"how many stayed that way"
Joker is older than batman, since when does an old guy have a perfect hairline, dress like a clubber and get tattoos?
>teeth busted by the pry bar beating he took from the original Joker and has to have grills now
>went nuts after beeing tortured by the real joker
>has a DAMAGED tattoo on his forehead, well, you know, because he was DAMAGED by the original joker
>has a dead robin tattoo on his arm
>shoulder scars from bullets coinciding with the old robin suit
> J tattoo'd on is face, just like Jasons brand
the tattoos could have also been done by the original joker, to brand Jason and solidify his new position as acting Joker, while being a taunt to batman whenever he see's Jason/Joker.
>HAHA, JOKE'S ON YOU BATMAN written on his old suit
JASON TODD IS THE NEW JOKER
Was Brandon Lee a better Joker than Ledger?
>>68149099
Leto is 44 years old
Affleck is 43 years old
>damaged
>>68149314
>le Leto plays characters his age meme
fuckoff with this
>>68148275
He looks like Macaulay Culkin with some edgy tattoos.
>>68148771
>Nicholson is the best Joker!
>Connery is the best Bond!
I want dads to fuck OFF.

>ledger just painted his hair and his skin
>fight club mentality
Ledger wasn't a Joker.
He'll have to be unbelievably good to surpass the fucking awful look they've given him.
He doesn't look threatening in the slightest really, just the pure visual representation of Cringe.
>>68148516
>>68148602
>>68148636
I think SS overall is gonna be really good, but that Joker is gonna fall flat.
>>68149672
And yet he was the only decent one live action one.
Leto can do it.
Hes a much better actor than Ledger and the small amount we have seen in the SS trailers have been 100% spot on. The character design is not great imo but nobody will give a fuck if he nails the character like i think he will
>>68149234
Whoever did this is pretty autistic.But thanks for the info!
>>68149637
If only
>>68148275
At this point, does anyone honestly care?
I'm so unbelievably bored with superhero movies. They've been beaten to death at this point. I want monster movies or historic epics or something ANYTHING to make a comeback.
>>68150295
>At this point, does anyone honestly care?
The majority of our country, yeah. Capekino reigns supreme.
>>68150295
This, I feel like the only people who give a shit are paid to give a shit and make articles about every new movie and new design change or the people that always follow this garbage.
>>68150394
Agree totally. Every single movie that comes out now is preceded by a bunch of D-list/internet "celebs" saying...just saw the new *animal/machine/funny name* - *man/woman/robot* movie and it wuz AWWWWESSSOMEEEE! Best movie this year zomg!
Then it turns out to be dog shit. These things are so bland now and people hype them to fuck because they're paid to.
There is no 'doing it.'
They're literally using the mysticism surrounding Ledger's character and death to fuel this Joker. Both in marketing and writing, you can clearly see.
At best he'll be a carbon copy, which is a shame since Leto is such a good actor.
>>68148729
>WB had to tell the production crew to reshoot Suicide Squad because it wasn't fun enough for the audience
you're retarded if you actually believe this shit
>>68148875
Animated series Joker is the only depiction to ever really capture the Clown Prince as he's truly meant to be.
posting GOAT Joker.
>>68149790
He wasn't. Nicholson was a great Joker. Leto is apparently a pretty good Joker from what I've seen in the trailer.
>>68150542
>tfw Ledger's death is still bringing money yo WB
Did they kill him?
>>68148814
It seemed like he was having loads of fun. He was laughing like an absolute madman for half the movie

Nicholson is the Joker.
Like Reeve is Superman.

Its true though, after the disaster that was BvS, WB had no choice but to make Suicide Squad more "fun".

spotted the bullshit
>>68148875
Walking in on a mob meeting showing them a magic trick. How is that not a show?
>>68148275
no he looks retarded and acts like a try hard fag
>>68148814
Dressing up as a nurse fucking around in a hospital and than blowing it up. That doesint sound like fun i guess.
>>68149637
He has the perfect chin/jaw for it.
>>68151736
Not to mention that smile on his face when he managed to turn Dent to accept his ideology.

>Hipster Assessment of Ledger #265: Move the Goalposts
>By now you've probably failed to convince anyone that you even believe your own contrarian arguments against Ledger's performance. They're wising up, and you have to act fast. Now it's time to confuse your opponents with the proposterous assertion that Ledger's performance should not be topped but forgotten as a flawed aberration that missed the point of the source material. Since the source material in question is a comic book character with innumberable interpretations it should be very easy to make the the concept of an objective Joker as nebulous as possible. If you shitpost with enough brevity, your fellow anons will be too smarted by your wit to remember that they've never read a single comic in which the legendary clown sported a tattoo on his forehead reading "DAMAGED" either.
>>68148392
idc about >muh comics
ledger joker is goat, the acting was top tier
>>68152155
+1000. people are pissing on Ledger just to be contratrian. The plot was retarded "getting caught was part of my plan" but Ledger's acting was top notch.
>>68149637
>this will never happen
JDIMSA
Heath was goddamn amazing, however the character in the movie was more a Riddler pushed to limits rather than a Joker
>>68148275
Jack nicholson already did
>>68148392
Ledgers Joker was better than anything ever presented in a comic.
MOM'S
>>68150295
>Historical epics making a comeback
People were complaining about BVS, The Hateful 8 and The Revenant being too long so I wouldn't count on it.
>>68148275
Jared Leto will be so good it will justify Heath Ledger killing himself.
>>68149234
1: I wish this was true, I was certain it was until I saw BvS, WB aren't smart enough to do something like this.
2: The fact that they sculpted the bullet holes onto the figure says a lot though.
3: Damn that figure is shit.
>>68148875
>Ledger never showed any class

RAP GAME CLOWN PRINCE
>>68154172
GONNA
>>68151693
That's the closest thing to a joke in that film and its still equally as dark as the rest of it all.
By the way I love TDK, I think Heath acted his fucking heart out and the character on screen is fantastic and menacing.
Its just not Joker in my opinion.
>>68150649
Is that Cesar Romero?
>>68149637
YOU'RE OUT JOKER, OUT OF YOUR MIND!
>>68149637
FORMULA?
>>68154807
your opinion doesnt matter because he was the joker in that universe
This Joker seems more like the Riddler desu
Leto's joker feels terrible just looking at this picture

>Neutral Facial Expression
That isn't Joker at all

Yes.

He was almost perfect.

You do if you are taking the time to go in these threads. Go fuck off and enjoy whatever movies you do if you don't like superhero stuff. Its not meant for you, so stop bitching that other people are being catered to.
