Heath's Joker was a compelling character, but he was an awfully loose take on the character. InTheEyesOfFire posted... The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly isnt the best of the trilogy, A Few Dollars More is. Totally agree. LoveLikeJazz posted... I think Jack Nicholson is mostly cringe (Cuckoo's Nest is good) and The Shining is awful. My first introduction to the guy left a bad taste in my mouth. That was the Joker. He just wasn't anywhere near animated or loud enough. But he did a killer job in The Shining, and he single-handedly promoted A Few Good Men from a boring 5/10 film to an amazing 10/10 film in one short scene. He was even a really good pick for the Joker on paper, but for whatever reason it just didn't work. My guess is Tim B kept telling him to tone it down when he would actually try to do a decent take on the Joker. I guess that could be a hot take for me. Tim Burton movies are just bad. Just straight-up bad. I can appreciate having a quirky, unique style, but not like that. <cite>RetuenOfDevsman posted [p:979552948] in What's you...
