Jared Leto IS The Joker - - - Part 12

[Greens]

Do you think that Harley gets pushed in my Joker and then he dives in after her? or do you think Harley goes in on her own and Joker goes in after her and bring her out?

Either of those is possible. All I know is, it's going to be a great scene. Well, I don't know that but I expect it to be.

 

[The Shape]

I think Joker will bring Harley there, and when she hesitates to jump in, he pushes her in and then jumps in after her.

I think it will be a very great scene. I hope it shows a more emotional side of the joker...I know that we all love the craziness, but we have to remember that love can make you crazy and I think ( I am hoping) we see this side of the Joker....

I just wonder how they are going to introduce The Joker in SS...will it be in a straight jacket opposite Dr. Harleen Qunizel inside Arkham? Or will it go back a little further than that, maybe Batman putting the Joker away?

 

[Corysxj88]

I think Joker will bring Harley there, and when she hesitates to jump in, he pushes her in and then jumps in after her.

I think this is what I am wanting to go with.... maybe a bit of hesitation by the joker and then after he has fallen in and screaming, he goes in after her and bring her out and the transformation begins!

Harley could snap out of her haze a little bit. What am I doing here? The chemical bath seals the deal and she never looks back.

 

[DeadStroke]

I feel like they'll explain or allude to the meaning of the damaged tat.



What are your guesses or explanation of that monologue (if that happens)?

 

[Boom]

I imagine they are strictly aesthetic choices decided upon by the director and actor.

I'll be surprised if they get so much as a mention.

 

[Majik1387]

Unless the actor is a producer, his input on aesthetic choices are close to zero. And based on how Leto has changed himself for roles in the past, I'm sure he just followed through with the design aesthetics and might have had a suggestion here and there, but the overall look I'd say was the designer and Ayer's collaboration, not Leto's.

I don't think it will be explained or even should be explained.

 

[Boy Scout]

I think the tattoos will explain themselves once we see the movie and get to know the character.

 

[Majik1387]

I think they will be there just for show and have no recognition. We're not getting another version of "You know how I got these scars?" with the tattoos.

 

[OutOfBoose]

This.

 

[Broseph44]

I myself don't care if we do or don't get an explanation for the tattoos. I don't mind them, I like them. I'm set haha.

 

[Knightfall]

I'm still not a fan of what they've done with The Joker. It's just toooooooooo far a radical departure from his looks previously. I'm all for doing something new I.E. Ledgers look was very different but very true. I'm also fine with a tat, but not so many that you look like a member of the Latin Kings. Not to mention the jewelry and the shaved eyebrows ect. I'm still loving what I've seen of SS so far and I think Leto will be great, but I can't help but still feel disappointed at what we've got looks wise from arguably the greatest Comic villain ever. I mean he looks like an Emo kid had a child with a Gang member and then Miley Cyrus was spliced in. Also, I mean is this a chemically changed Joker? He doesn't look that clown white? It just could be much more than it is.

Now go ahead and bombard me with eye rolls and gifs galore but I'm not going to lie. I still think the movie will be amazing and I think Leto's Joker will be great, but honestly... Were they going for the Sexy Emo tatted abs sporting Joker to appeal to tweens or what?

I'm strangely going to defend the tats somewhat. But if you look at the original Joker's design he's somewhat based on the look of 1930's gangsters, just a flamboyant take on that.

So it's not totally out of character for the Joker to take on attributes of current-day gangsters.

My issue with the tats is I just think they are not done very well aesthetically. I don't care what it says but a forehead tat is never going to look impressive.

The body tats seems to be mostly covered by his clothes but individually they are more cheesy than intimidating. We get it you like to laugh...

Well since you asked

See I know the Joker is the "Gangster" type but it's like.. I mean Diamond earrings, tats and grillz(That we know of). I'd be fine with a tat or two but like you said, they're just blasé and to me so silly. And where does the Gangster influence stop? I mean does he wear a fitted hat next and sag his pants and wear Jordans? I don't get it..

Well since you asked

No gif? I'm insulted

 

[I Am The Knight]

No gif? I'm insulted

You're lucky you got that much out of him

 

[Broseph44]

Nah I'm at work didn't have time haha

I'm not affiliated with Mexican cartels, but I don't think that fits the description.

 

[The Guard]

The fillings/grilles, etc don't bother me much.

In different light, they look white, yellow, black or silver.

It's kind of a cool effect.

I can't wrap my head around how the "true to the character" card is pulled while simultaneously referencing Ledger. Solely judging style and physical appearance, I can't think of a more singular and unique iteration than his. Even to this day.

I get the performance was unexpectedly enthralling and re-watchable, but nearly every new aspect brought to the character was bordering on anti-Joker. You could sum him up as a "lone-wolf hobo terrorist in clownface" and wouldn't be too far off from the actual part. Who can honestly say that comes close to anyone's version of Joker?

Just look at this:

It boggles me people can rag on Leto's departure but have no problem with Ledger. I can only understand it if TDK is your primary frame of reference. But anyone else... HOW?? Am I missing some essential Joker reboot appearances? The character has remained "relatively" consistent.

Superficial tats and grills do not outweigh the blatant callback imagery that Leto's evokes of past incarnations. Even if I tried I cannot say the same for Heath.

Well thats going to get you in trouble

j/k

I will say that Ledger's Joker was so well written and layered that his look/mannerisms were embraced more because of it.

I think Ledger played one of the greatest villains ever. However, its possible one day there could be a better movie Joker. Will it be Leto? Who knows. He'll likely get to play the role more than once.

Alright, that's pretty cool.
