No way lol. Ledger was awesome because his performance fit the look so well. The make-up was sloppy as was his mannerisms. The way he was always hunched forward. The way he dressed. It all fell into place despite his Joker looking no more different to comic Joker than Leto's Joker.

Like Ledger before him, all Leto has to do is have his performance match his look. Easier said than done I know. But he does that and he'll be just fine.

Heath was good because his clothing and style resembled the Joker we all know and loved but at the same time had a unique spin on it which fit within the Nolanverse.

What they've done here is tried way too hard and even if he did a performance which "matched his look" I don't think it would be very good. It's just a good look even if he wasn't playing the Joker.

Least Heath Ledgers was good on it's own and respected the comic book version at the same tikme

Comic Joker and Ledger Joker don't have the same style at all. Ledger had a very disheveled look. Fuzzy hair, scars and messy face paint. Comic Joker was usually dressed very dapper with (usually) a neat hair do. Yet Ledger managed to capture the very soul of the Joker while giving it it's own spin. That's what I meant in my first message.

Leto has a big task but a similar one nonetheless. Capture the spirit of the Joker while also giving it his own spin which matches the look.

fuck you talking about?
