This look is definitely growing on me. I think Leto will do a great job!

I think it's one of those looks that'll work onscreen, in motion and in the right lighting, but it's not that appealing to me in promotional stills.

Exactly what I was thinking. Still hoping for the Jason Todd twist!

What's not to like? It's the joker. Originally Posted by Expletive Deleted

Reminds me as a modernization of Marshall Rogers' Joker:
Rogers' version resembles the stereotypical 70s pimp or gangster. Nowadays both archetypes have changed dramatically and Leto's look reflects that.Miller was right.

I don't think it works at all. Not menacing, not scary, just stupid. If you're going to introduce a new version of the Joker do it in a new Batman solo film, not in a movie like Suicide Squad.

How many times have we seen Joker menace Batman on screen? I guess 2 times (3 if you count Cesar Romero's Joker being menacing), but whatever. I like the idea of seeing Joker not in a "vs. Batman" situation. This will expand the character a bit.

Tattooed Joker is just not my Joker. This is just the wrong film to do Joker in.
Things I love: Batman, Superman, AEW, old films, Lovecraft
Grant Morrison: “Adults...struggle desperately with fiction, demanding constantly that it conform to the rules of everyday life. Adults foolishly demand to know how Superman can possibly fly, or how Batman can possibly run a multibillion-dollar business empire during the day and fight crime at night, when the answer is obvious even to the smallest child: because it's not real.”

I'd prefer the Todd twist. I'm not into this Joker at all. Leto might turn in a stellar performance, but those tattoos are so dumb.

Well, it's not like Joker hasn't had tattoos before (one could even argue that his classic appearance - the one most people are familiar with, has tattoos on his body, since we don't necessarily see him shirtless). Originally Posted by Joker

In an out of continuity controversial 2008 Frank Miller comic. On classic Joker having tats...no, we have seen him shirtless plenty of times (Demon Laughs, Morrison run, etc, etc). Originally Posted by Jeevanjacobjohn

Wow, this has lame written all over it. With Star Wars leaking into 2016 and all of the comic movies set to debut next year, DC should get ready to take an L.
