I just thought I'd do ask, Who played the better Joker? Its been all over the news so I just wanted to see some feedback.

Caesar Romero
<a href="http://media.photobucket.com/image/caesar%20romero%20%20joker/fabmartin64/joker_13.jpg?o=1" target="_blank"><img src="http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z121/fabmartin64/joker_13.jpg"></a>

Jack Nicholson
<a href="http://media.photobucket.com/image/jack%20nicholson%20joker/FloatingHeadDr/Movies/jokermoney.jpg?o=15" target="_blank"><img src="http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i151/FloatingHeadDr/Movies/jokermoney.jpg"></a>

Heath Ledger
<a href="http://media.photobucket.com/image/heath%20ledger%20joker/Adee_2511/darkknight_promo2.jpg?o=68" target="_blank"><img src="http://i508.photobucket.com/albums/s322/Adee_2511/darkknight_promo2.jpg"></a>

Caesar Romero
Well I'm not to sure on him becuase I wasn't around for him. Apparently a fact is that he still had his mustache while playing, they just covered it with make-up.

Jack Nicholson
I've seen the movie and I think he did a good job on it but to me I think it was good in his day. Another thing is I think this Joker was geared more towards the actual comics than anything.

Heath Ledger
I've seen this movie twice and it still amazes me how (personally) good he did on the Joker. I think he did a great job in trying to re-create the Joker from past appearances and made it new/interesting. Also I think that -this- Joker was geared towards a more realistic type character.

Thoughs are just my oppinions but for me Heath Ledger was the better Joker for me. :wink:

The original is the best. The original is ALWAYS the best.

P.S Thank you for confirming that you have an obsession with all things Batman.

P.P.S All things Batman related suck.

I have to agree, Heath Ledger did an AMAZING job, he made you believe that the Joker -could- be real...and the scary thing is...he proved it. He went out with a bang and it's a shame he won't get to see him impress us even further.

Personally, I like the dark reality of things. Instead of the "Disney aspect" of things that happened back in the day.

(Disney Aspect = "Poo doesn't happen")

So I would have to say that the darker version of the batman series is my favorite. So Heath Ledger's Joker is my favorite.

EDIT:
Apparently the forum censorship is turned on. :?
*changes it to the childish version of the word*

I kinda agree with Adam that it does. Not a bad thing, though, in my opinion. But Adam has to hate everything. Well, almost everything. It's like his trademark.
