Jared Leto IS The Joker - - - - - - - - - Part 18

Ok so Joker definitely needs to be in the GCS movie but I'm not sure if Leto would want to be another tangential, superficial role in a story as the Joker. I think he wants to be front and center from here on out. here's my suggestion: they can get around that by re-purposing the footage that was left on the cutting room floor for SS. he did say they had enough stuff for an entire joker movie.

We definitely know they cut scenes with Harley being joker's therapist, them kissing (when he asks for a machine gun) and that whole arkham scene in general. They cut out a lot of scenes to make Harley and Joker's relationship go from clear-cut abusive, to co-dependant and messed up but still loving so I think they probably have a scene where Harley and Joker have a falling out. That could make it so we can have the Joker in the movie without needing to make Jared play a fringe, subsidiary role/annoy him even more. It would be a win-win in the sense that it could put that footage to good use, show it to audiences who never got a chance to see it, make it serve a purpose story-wise, flesh out those scenes we only saw small snippets of and maybe even appease Leto who was salty that his work never saw the light of day. kind of like a peace offering of sorts. I'd personally really like to see those scenes fleshed out. It would kind of feel like when they re-visited the Battle of metropolis in BVS. familiar but new and interesting. I'd love it if GCS started off with the extended Harley and Joker Arkham sequence. Would be an awesome opening to the movie.

who knows? maybe the whole reason they held back from putting those scenes in the ultimate cut was because they planned to use the footage like I'm suggesting.

 

Per Ayer's word, there is no more footage to be used.

 

but we know that's not true. The scene of Joker with half of his face all burnt, that scene with Croc attacking katana, katana's eyes turning black/looking at her soul-taker sword, FlagxJune romance scenes ect. so even going by just the trailers alone, there's clearly a lot of footage they haven't shown.
as far as Joker and Harley stuff, we know the scene with Harleen and Joker where they kiss was heavily edited down to a few short clips when it was actually a full scene. you can tell from the B-roll footage. We know the scene with her and Joker in the club, interacting with Monster T was heavily edited down (again from the B-roll stuff), we know the Akhram take-over scene was a lot longer, we know that at one point, Joker slaps harleen ect.

Yup, blatant lies by Ayer

 

Unless Ayer personally erased all of the footage from WB's servers he was lying.

 

While I would like to see those deleted scenes, ultimately it doesn't matter.

No good version of this movie exists. I'm sure WB made things a bit worse by forcing in a bunch of pop songs (and we don't know who's idea that was) but the reality is Ayer made a bad product.

It's the same thing with Josh Trank and Fan4stic. No good version of that movie existed either, despite what Trank may have said on twitter.

 

While that is undoubtedly the case, that footage probably won't ever see the light of day so the reality of the situation isn't too different from Ayer's lies.

I cringed when he said it during the movie and I cringed when I read it on twitter.

 

I like that he's poking fun at the line himself.

 

On his snapchat story Jared ran into a fan at Coachella who's name was Jared Lee and had the same Joker smile from the movie tatted on his hand lol pretty cool

To be fair, Twilight won best movie at the MTV movie awards.

 

Jared Leto met Jared Lee. But yeah, pretty cool story. I'm almost tempted to get a tattoo of that Joker smile too.

I always read that as Fanfourstic. And I hate it lol

 

I agree with this. The novelization imo proves what you said. Even though it's "darker" it's not better.

 

Anyway, I feel bad for Jared Leto. He really got screwed over big time in this.

 

I'm sure he'll be okay, sleeping on his filled-to-the-brim bank account.

 

Jared Leto posted this on Instagram

 

Is he raping Batman? Because that's what Snyder would want.


I'm not even kidding either, look it up.

 

Oh, is that true ? You mean him saying "Batman isn't dark, Batman is cool. Dark would be if someone was raped in a prison" ? Because that is not the same as "I'd 100% make a movie where the Joker rapes Batman". But maybe in your head it is. Whatever excuse you need to trash on him and DC, even if it's a lie.

 

Come on, ANE, let's not derail this or any other thread with such foolishness.

Yep, Jared seems totally uninterested in returning as the Joker.

 

The worst thing about that pic isn't the ugly jewelry or tattoos, it's how Joker's skin tone looks more flesh toned than white.
