Jared Leto IS The Joker - - - Part 12

[terry78]

They're not gonna kill him off, he's too iconic. I still don't know how Burton was fine with doing it.

It's going to be awesome to see a version of The Joker in more than one film finally.

Because Burton gave zero ****s, which I liked.

Hopefully, the ultimate edition of BVS will have Leto in it.

I like how his green combed back hair hangs when he's distressed or angry and he combs it back when he's collected.

I loved how he fixed his hair right after slapping Harleen. A narcistic maniac who cares about his looks while doing evil things is just really scary (another good example is Bateman in American Psycho).

Leto learned well from Bateman.

Burton later regretted it.

If they were killing this Joker off then Ryan Gosling would have the role instead of Leto.

I forgot the reason he didn't take the role is because he would have had to sign a 3 picture deal.

Now my question is, in what point in time does this take place in comparison to BvS?

 

[Corysxj88]

I'm guessing afterwards...but I would bet my money, we are gonna get flashbacks in this movie, so it might be before and after...and maybe during...

 

[Knight-Tale]

Its after BvS but you clearly see some scenes as flashbacks showing Harley's origin as a psychiatrist etc

 

[The Shape]

I'm also guessing the Batman/Joker/Harley chase scene is a flashback to their prime.

The main story will be after BvS. The White House scene confirms that.

 

[Bat of Gotham]

At first I wasn't sure about the tattoos, but I don't even care anymore. I'm completely, 100% sold on this version of the Joker.

And that grenade scene... perfection.

 

[The Shape]

Call me crazy, but at this point, I actually like and appreciate that tattoos on this Joker.

His whole aesthetic is not something I would ever have expected or asked for in terms of my preferred Joker look, but it all seems to come together really effectively and impressively, especially with the way Leto is playing him in what we've seen thus far. Also seems to really fit the tone and vision for this movie.

 

[The Apocalypse]

I'm really hoping Leto can pull this off. I haven't had a problem with his look but all we've really heard are one-liners from him.

 

[The Guard]

He's an interesting combination of the classic character with a more gangster feel (including a dash of the opulent gangster from the Golden Age), and the more recent, horroresque incarnation from the comics.

I kinda love it.

I'm surprised this isn't one AstroZombie's quotes in his sig.

“The opportunity to take on this nearly Shakespearean character — that’s what graphic novels and comic books are becoming, right? [He’s] this beautiful disaster of a character — what a big challenge.”

Such is often the case with movie trailers.

That is fair.

We heard and seen far more of Heath's Joker when The Dark Knight trailers dropped. Or at least it seemed like it.

 

[Corysxj88]

Yeah, I would have liked to here more than just sounds, laughs and one liners from Leto. I'd like to here him converse with someone. I'd like to see that scene of him and Dr. Quinzel out in the street when he smacks her and points the gun at his own head.

 

[terry78]

Trailers are different nowadays than they used to be. I think they're trying to play up the force of crazy nature he is in these. Like Bam, he's in, he's out.

 

[The Shape]

That is fair.

Mostly one-liners from Heath's Joker in the TDK trailers, too, though. However, he was more heavily featured in the TDK marketing because he was the main antagonist and the big/new conflict for Batman.

Suicide Squad is an entirely different beast in terms of what it's about and how its characters need to be marketed.

 

[craigaat]

His laugh is awesome. Very creepy.

 

[Slade W]

I am really looking forward to seeing him in a full scene.
