Pattern Ghost Posted October 30, 2015 Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 Scars aside, Heath Ledger's Joker didn't always smile, and he worked for me. And lots of the promo clips show the new joker with a psychotic smile. I haven't seen the smiling ones. Does it help much? Guessing not. This movie isn't really piquing my interest at this point.

Pattern Ghost Posted October 30, 2015 Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 I still think that Mark Hamil's joker was the best one. Heath Ledger was good, and that whole franchise was an interesting take on the Bat-verse, but the "Batman: the Animated Series" version is going to be hard to dethrone as THE Joker for me. B:TAS -- and the entire animated universe that followed -- is by far my favorite take on anything DC. Old Man and Pariah 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sociotard Posted October 31, 2015 Report Share Posted October 31, 2015 B:TAS -- and the entire animated universe that followed -- is by far my favorite take on anything DC. Oh, I'm a huge fan of TAS. I just like many of the other variations of batman as well. I absolutely respect your opinion that TAS is the best, but I'm not convinced the new one will stink on toast.

Zeropoint Posted October 31, 2015 Report Share Posted October 31, 2015 It wouldn't be the first time that what seems to be a radically different take on a character turns out to be good and valid. I'm thinking specifically of Robert Downey Jr.'s take on Sherlock Holmes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted October 31, 2015 Report Share Posted October 31, 2015 I'm a put off that they've turned the joker from a madman/monster/buffoon to ...sexy, in the last few films. ...That might just be you, dude.

I absolutely respect your opinion that TAS is the best, but I'm not convinced the new one will stink on toast. That's a pretty good smile. Now, I don't think it'll necessarily stink on toast. I'm just saying that I don't like the aesthetics, so I'm not rushing out to see it in the theater. I'll wait until it hits streaming or Redbox (on a coupon day) before I see it.

Enforcer84 Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 I have real difficulty imagining the Joker sitting for tattoos like that. But this is obviously not any Joker I know and/or love so meh. At least he hasn't ripped his own face off to be "edgy." Harley, is that you?
