You get your own solo movie and you get to turn up in fun crossovers. It's a dream gig. Then it turns out the role gives you a whopping 15 minutes of screentime and you're never called back. Imagine being a Chadwick Boseman You get a huge comic book role that youre signed into for years. You get your own solo movie and get to turn up in fun crossovers. Its dream gig Then it turns out youre being introduced in a huge team up movie and theres 12 other heroes to compete with. Youre only given like 10 minutes of screen time when all is said and done. Oh and btw were introducing Spider-Man along with you, but dont let that phase you. Youre important too. Also your solo movie will make you a champion and symbol for your race worldwide. No pressure. I walked out of Civil War and black panther was my favourite character in that very bloated movie. Now obviously those are different circumstances and its never all on the actors shoulders for how a role ends up being received. But it think its a nice counterpart to having some tough odds standing to them. As far as Letos joker. The question in my mind all comes down to how did he play the hand he was dealt? The costume? Writing? Story? Editing? Its hard to say what Leto was dealt and what Leto played. that movie was such a cluster fuck From a hundred different angles. But at the end of the day his actions behind the scenes are telling to me. He was dealt a shit hand and played it poorly. But it worked out great for Boseman. He's been in three crossover movies and is now working on his second solo movie. Leto left Joker to be...Morbius. --- Kind Regards, Darmik <cite>Darmik posted [p:928613153] in Is Leto's ...

Darmik 10/11/19 2:37:49 AM #65:	The thing with the Joker is that he only should need a single scene to stick out so you can't even really blame the small screentime. Look at any scene of Jack Napier Joker and he's amusing and fun to watch. TDK Joker was introduced to the world in the beginning bank robbery scene. That already painted a huge picture into what that character is going to be and he only says one single line. That clip was shown off long before even the first trailer. Hell I don't think there's a single scene with the Joker in TDK where he doesn't stand out in some way. Even when he isn't in the movie you can feel his presence working its way in the background. Leto Joker is a dime a dozen unhinged gangster with clown paint and tattoos. This world already establishes him as being around for a long time and he would need a total retcon to be interesting. The guy got to work with the Mad Love story and it still sucked. Everything about it was a failure. The script could be the issue because he didn't really have any good lines to work with but it's not like I look at the character and see potential there. Birds of Prey is probably a better movie without him. --- Kind Regards, Darmik <cite>Darmik posted [p:928621247] in Is Leto's ...

SRR Capdown 10/11/19 3:53:02 AM #69:	Honestly, the SS Joker's design wasnt that bad. Especially, when you consider all the cut content that explained it. He's supposed to be a post 'Death in the Family' Joker, where he's kidnapped and murdered Jason Todd/Robin. As a result, Batman literally smashed his face in and came very close to killing him. His lack of smile, grills and hand tattoo, are a result of him physically being unable to do so. The Damaged tattoo on his head is supposed to be a visual reminder to Batman about how close he came to killing him. As much of a message about Batman's psyche as it is about Joker's. I still dont think the design was great, especially as an introduction to the character. It would have been a cool change if we actually got a whole film about it and saw the transition from a more classic design to the design we got.

I still dont think the design was great, especially as an introduction to the character. It would have been a cool change if we actually got a whole film about it and saw the transition from a more classic design to the design we got. But it is a lot better when you consider the stuff cut.</quote> Nobody cares about any of that. They could have integrated all that in a way that didn't make him look like a pile of silver and bright green vomit. He looks terrible and acts obnoxious. And he's not even funny or anything.

greatmonkeybaby 10/11/19 2:09:30 PM #75:	Darmik posted... The thing with the Joker is that he only should need a single scene to stick out so you can't even really blame the small screentime. Look at any scene of Jack Napier Joker and he's amusing and fun to watch. TDK Joker was introduced to the world in the beginning bank robbery scene. That already painted a huge picture into what that character is going to be and he only says one single line. That clip was shown off long before even the first trailer. Hell I don't think there's a single scene with the Joker in TDK where he doesn't stand out in some way. Even when he isn't in the movie you can feel his presence working its way in the background. Leto Joker is a dime a dozen unhinged gangster with clown paint and tattoos. This world already establishes him as being around for a long time and he would need a total retcon to be interesting. The guy got to work with the Mad Love story and it still sucked. Everything about it was a failure. The script could be the issue because he didn't really have any good lines to work with but it's not like I look at the character and see potential there. Birds of Prey is probably a better movie without him. I see what you mean au_gold posted... It was definitely the script. action52 posted... SRR Capdown posted... Honestly, the SS Joker's design wasnt that bad. Especially, when you consider all the cut content that explained it. He's supposed to be a post 'Death in the Family' Joker, where he's kidnapped and murdered Jason Todd/Robin. As a result, Batman literally smashed his face in and came very close to killing him. His lack of smile, grills and hand tattoo, are a result of him physically being unable to do so. The Damaged tattoo on his head is supposed to be a visual reminder to Batman about how close he came to killing him. As much of a message about Batman's psyche as it is about Joker's. I still dont think the design was great, especially as an introduction to the character. It would have been a cool change if we actually got a whole film about it and saw the transition from a more classic design to the design we got.
