The Joker Thread - Part 1

[Schlosser85]

Yea......Anthony Starr is great as Homelander, but it'd feel a bit typecasting to have him be another crazy comic book villain.

 

[Captain Tired]

, at the bare minimum someone who hasn't been in anything comic book related in a while ala Dafoe.

Er... Aquaman?

 

[BatsAndNights]

Er... Aquaman?

I'm on like 3 hours sleep, I completely forgot Aquaman exists

 

[Schlosser85]

Eh, not like Dafoe had such a great role in Aquaman. I'd wager a lot of people don't even remember he was in it.

 

[Captain Tired]

Oh come on.

 

[AndyTrevino]

Oh come on.

They totally wasted him there.

 

[Captain Tired]

No not really.

 

[AndyTrevino]

No not really.

He wasn't exactly memorable though. All he did was play Aquaman's mentor.

 

[Schlosser85]

They totally wasted him there.

Dafoe totally seemed bored. He and Kidman were phoning it in. Not that I really blame them.

 

[Wheels]

Sure, but it's still Anthony Starr, with his face and voice. All I'd see would be Homelander doing his best Joker impression. I'd just rather we get someone who hasn't really been in anything comic book related, at the bare minimum someone who hasn't been in anything comic book related in a while ala Dafoe.

If we played by these rules all the time we would be missing out on great performances.

The only thing I remember about that movie was water.

 

[WatchProtect]

Not the face, but this suit color is exactly what I want for Joker. I would just post the comic but it's a bit different, color translation from paper to plastic made a difference I believe.

 

[hellblazer103]

Dark purple always >>> bright purple with me .

Maybe some pinstripes on the pants would be nice too

 

[AndyTrevino]

I'd honestly prefer a more magenta color or a darker purple.

 

[AndyTrevino]

This but with notched lapels, matching pants, a flower on the lapel, and gloves would be ideal for this aesthetic IMO:

 

[Art Vandelay]

I guarantee he doesn't look like how you want him to look.

 

[AndyTrevino]

I guarantee he doesn't look like how you want him to look.

How? It's a basic enough look; although maybe the blazer might be a bit more casual, like tweed or something.

 

[shauner111]

It’s too plain for me.

 

[Captain Tired]

We might not even get him in this iteration. Probably will, but maybe not.

 

[AndyTrevino]

It’s too plain for me.

I don't really think his suits are gonna be flashy or super vibrant anymore. He'll obviously be well dressed but probably not as stylized as Nicholson or Leto for instance.

 

[shauner111]

Zero chance that he doesn’t show up. It’s the Joker. There were reports that he’s actually in this movie, and that it’s a stand-in cameo. Even if that’s false, he’s 110 percent in this trilogy.

 

[AndyTrevino]

There's just something about the purple jacket, white shirt and black bowtie look on him that I just love. Not sure why.

I think you can get away with a Nicholson wardrobe in this version as a nice contrast to Pattinson’s brooding. You just have to make him more spooky and cut down the amount of gags/props.

If they DO go that route, I feel like they'd, again, tone it down a bit and limit it to ties and bowties with polka dots and stuff like that. A bit more subtle

More or less how Kane's Joker dressed, so I wouldn't really mind something like that.
