Who's the better Joker?
Who do you think's the better Joker: Jack Nicolson or Heath Ledger. Personally, I like them both, but I want to find out what everybody else thinks! {thumb2}

Re: Who's the better Joker?
I like them both, too. In my own opinion though, I think Heath was my favorite since he made the Joker a very dark character. He made the Joker different from all the others. The others were more of a playful type, but Heath was a different one. ;)
Re: Who's the better Joker?
Although I loved Heath in The Knight's Tale, I must say that Nicholson was much better Joker.
Re: Who's the better Joker?
Heath added a dark, disturbing element to The Joker, which I really liked.
I think Nicholson completely lacked that in his portrayal of the charatcer.
My favourite Batman villian ever though? Probably De Vito, as The Penguin. I also thought Jim Carrey was brilliant as The Riddler.

Re: Who's the better Joker?
You can't compare the Heath Ledger's Joker to Jack Nicholson's Joker, they were both played in completely different ways. It'd be like trying to compare Christian Bale's Batman to Adam West's Batman.
They both did a great job of playing the character how it needed to be played at the time, with Ledger arguably having the more difficult performance and therefore deserving more credit for pulling off the disturbing role so well, and being so commited to it, that it eventually would play a part in his death.

How about Cesar Romero? He was in the first Batman movie.

I can't help but laugh my bottom off when I watch that movie. Especially with the shark-repellant spraydobie516 wrote:How about Cesar Romero? He was in the first Batman movie.

Re: Who's the better Joker?
Nicholson all the way. To be honest, I don't get whats so great about Heath Ledger in that film. I thought Dark Knight was pretty boring, very predictable...and that licking his mouth thing was just annoying. Not saying he wasn't any good, I just didn't find it anything special. I'm not a fan of when they go out of their way to look 'dark' and 'gritty'. Can't beat a bit of Nicholson, who did have kinda dark moments but also got the humour through. Best of both worlds.

Cesar Romero. Ah man. Thats one brilliant TV series, and the film? Top notch. Now THATS entertainment. I'd watch that over Dark Knight any day.

Re: Who's the better Joker?
Personally I just loved Heath Ledger as the Joker. He gave me chills being this psychotic character but still he was able to make some funny scenes. Heath's Joker gotta be my all time favorite movie character. I really wish Heath will get his Oscar in February (*fingers crossed*). He deserves it.
