Suicide Squad: General Discussion and Speculation - Part 4

[NoLaNitE007]

Absolutely LOVE Letos Joker look!

Edgy, different, eerie, sinister and psychotic looking. I just wish the lip makeup goes higher up the cheek bones like in Assault on Arkham.

Can't wait to see him act!

 

[-Arya-]

Not what I expected at all, but hey I'd be lying if I said it didn't scare the **** out of me.

Can't wait to see see more on this.

It's the eyes. The eyes are the first thing I'm fixated on.

I'm fixated on everything to be honest. It's just so...different.

 

[DarkKnight88]

Uh....that's perma white!

It may be but it's not that strong thus making him look more like just a pale dude.

@Paul_Dini

That's a Joker who demands acolytes. I think Harley Quinn will fit in rather well.

 

[Sawyer]

@Paul_Dini

Yaaaas.

I think Paul Dini knows what he's talking about. If it meets with a legend's approval it must be heading in the right direction.

 

[Doc Ock]

Getting kinda nervous, not a fan of this look.

Someone respected in the industry/Batman universe>>>>some person on the internet.

[Jake Cassidy]

I really want to see Mark Hamill's reaction.

 

[The Riddler]

joker's look is just awful.

i am so disappointed. what a mess.

In regard to the legitimacy of a character, definitely

Is there anything more resistant to change and infantile than the average CBM fan?

 

[TheNextNolan22]

After this polarizing reveal, I'm rooting for Leto even more than I already was. Watch, he's gonna ****ing crush it. We've been down this route way too many times.

 

[Paradox1]

Joker looks scary psychotic

Yeah same here, I have lots of faith in him to shut a lot of people up.

 

[Roderick]

Okay after hearing Dini's opinion, I'm feeling slightly less pessimistic about this take on Joker and I'm beginning to realize that myself and some others are disappointed purely because our hopes of a traditional Joker as depicted TAS were not met.

Seeing all the designs next to each other makes me like it a tad more, I've always hated Nicholson as Joker tbh.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

More than ever I want to see what this Joker's daily routine inside prison is like.

 

[DigificWriter]

Mark Hamill's Joker remains my favorite filmic iteration of the character, but I absolutely love that they've made this new version tattooed because it just screams 'psychopath'.

If a guy is that into the persona he's adopted/created/cultivated that he's tattooing himself with things that visually speak to said persona, you know he's got to be freaking insane.

As I said in the Leto thread, this is totally not what I was expecting, but is awesome nonetheless.

 

[Quasimod0]

I have no doubt that his portrayal will be great, but I don't really like this look at all. To be honest I was hoping we would get an awesome classic looking Joker to go along with our awesome Batman.

Hopefully it will grow on me though.

 

[signalman]

All Tattoos GROSS me out. I just don't understand why people do that do themselves.
***YUCK***

Hopefully there is only one shirtless scene and the rest of time he is in prison clothes or his Purple/White Suit.
Leto "Joker Laugh" is what most important to me.

 

[AnneFan]

Yeah same here, I have lots of faith in him to shut a lot of people up.

I don't doubt Leto's ability, I just don't like the aesthetics.

 

[jerkhero]

First I had probably a pretty typical fanboy reaction (awful, WTH!!), but I'm actually kinda ok with the new Joker look. Don't care for the forehead tattoo though. Really interested to see him with Harley. (Harley will no doubt look great no matter what they do to her, because it's Margot)

Gotta say, Arkham has surprisingly good quality tattoo artist. Assuming that's where he got those pics. t:

 

[Wally_West]

Good news is for all those people that absolutely hate the tattoos, I'm pretty show they will only be shown for a brief part of the movie. He will probably be covered up most of the time, it would be pretty weird for him to be shirtless the entire time. Me thinks his actual costume that he wears will be little more traditional and will not cause as big of a s&%# storm as this pic did apparently.
