am I the only one who DIDN'T think Nicholson nailed joker??

No you are not, Nicholson is one dimensional who plays the same 'mad' scthick in every film, he has zero range. His Joker is is Jack Torrence in the Shining with make up who is in One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest who was in China Town. Overated does not not even cover it.

There is a similarity in his acting style to playing psycho/quirky characters. That's why I always get why people like this think some of his performances are similar; http://sabotagetimes.com/reportage/...k-ponies-5-actors-who-only-play-themselves/#_

Not the characters themselves, but the performance playing the characters. But one dimensional and zero range do not belong in the same sentence as Jack Nicholson.

(On Jack Nicholson's performance in The Shining)
 
I thought his performance was okay, but it didn't blow me away. I'm not really impressed with Nicholson's acting style. I much preferred Mark Hamill's and Heath Ledger's Jokers.

His physique also took me out of the movie a bit, because I couldn't imagine the Joker as a portly man. The Joker in my mind has always been lean and lanky.
