Biiiiitch more. Biiiiiiiiiiiiitch more.

 

Did I step back into middle school or something? What is this?

Are you seriously trying to just shitpost on DLP? I mean I know this site's been degrading over the last few years but I thought we had a modicum of standards.

 

That Joker looks like Marilyn Manson with green hair.

 

Bitch bitch moan moan. How dare you not conform to high standards on MY DLP?!? How dare you not share my outrage at the new Joker design? I demand you back my position of disappointment and derision on the first of six character designs for this movie. Clearly this movie is going to suck; I apologise sincerely.

 

If you want to defend it, though God knows how you even would, try using your words. All you've done is repeated "bitch."

 

Defend it I shall.



One of the most iconic and celebrated images of Joker from 'The Killing Joke'.

What are you annoyed about? The tats?

Come back if the movie comes out and he's acting like Jack Sparrow.

 

I don't really see anything wrong with it, Mr J has had loads of different incarnations, and I think Jared Leto has the props to pull off what looks like a properly fucking mental Joker.

 

Bitchy bitch bitch. Moan?

Jesus. If you're that shattered about the new character design, maybe you should just avoid all new super hero movies on principle. It'd be a real damn shame if you were to be disappointed whenever they don't just copy what someone else has done before.

 

I think you have a point TheWiseTomato, but you really went about expressing it in the worst way possible.

 

I agree that the picture of the Joker looks horrible.

I have a mental image that the Joker has a certain degree of class in himself. That pic Hugplx linked to shows the Joker in a suit.

This Joker? He has tats and fake teeth. He looks like a 2-bit gangster with makeup. Do not want.

 

Regardless of how the overall 'image' makes me think about the movie (mostly more ambivalent than anything else) I would love to have been a fly on the wall in the creative meeting that decided the "damaged" tattoo on the forehead was necessary.

 

The best Joker I've ever seen looks like he escaped a mental asylum and stole a suit from a shop.

That pic is of Leto after getting his makeup done. Wait for the damn movie.

 

Besides the fake teeth (ugh) it looks about as bad as all character reimaginings. That is, bad until we see it in action.

 

Did people lose their shit before watching Dark Knight?

 

Which part of the Dark Knight contained a re-imagining? I must have missed it.

 

You're being facetious, it's cute, but I'll answer anyway. While not as drastic as Leto, Ledger's Joker looked like a homeless crazy person.

Wildly different to the campy, 'kempt' iterations we'd had in the past.

Was there any kickback?

 

I'm not being facetious. You're trying to support a good argument by using a terrible example.

Ledger's Joker was played excellently. That doesn't make him a reimagining. The style was the same as canon Joker and (depending on what Joker you're looking at) so was the characterization.

 

The question pertains to a time before we watched DK, not after.

I asked if there was any kickback to his image before people saw the movie.

My stance on the current issue is to stfu until we see the movie. If it's terrible - very much unlike Ledger's - then by all means, get the torches and pitchforks.

 

Ledger's Joker is as close a real life rendition of the classic Joker look as one can get. I don't see your point.

 

So I saw 50 Shades. I'm baffled that some countries (including Poland) are giving it an adult rating. The average music video shows more, except maybe for nipples.

Gotta say though, there were a few good laughs in there. The business meeting where they discuss the contract ("What are buttplugs?") or when Chris goes "I don't make love. I fuck. Hard." The only way the delivery of that line could be more hilarious is if Jar Jar Binks did it.
