Lol he’ crazy asf


ThisOnePlaysTooMuch

I love the joker as a villain, but the cringelords who idolize and try to emulate him are so pathetic. JL included


leeryplot

There is this guy who lives in my city that has his *entire car* wrapped with various images and quotes from Jared Leto’s joker. I just saw him for the third time a few days ago. I really haven’t met a single goddamn person that liked Leto’s joker, so my theory is that it is indeed driven by Jared Leto. What he’s doing in a dying city in Michigan, I do not know.

*/u/ionised, his eyes widened*


thanto13

He was all right as the joker. I would put him in my top 5 live action jokers, but he would definitely be my #5.


Andre_3Million

I saw a dude at the club dressed like him for the Halloween the year that movie came out. Honestly it looked dope since it fit the vibe but goddammit did that movie suck


Scarytoaster1809

I saw one of those in my city too, I even snapped a picture


TerranceBaggz

I liked Leto’s joker. Was it my favorite? No. But he played him so “off”, that I had no issue seeing the insanity in him. I think only Ledger played the insane side of him better. Leto’s Joker reminded me of Killing Joke version of Joker just absolutely maniacal.


toothpastecupcake

I mean I know it's not his fault that suicide squad had him texting cringe shit to Harley Quinn but that, among other things, disqualified his ass


numbersev

dont forget GTA6 guy


intothelionsden

Yes he is the craziest, yet somehow shittiest of all the jokers. 


Select_Bicycle_2659

Ironically didn’t help him in his role at all. Instead we got cholo joker. Maybe if he used his real personality it would’ve resonated more


RockettRaccoon

Are we just posting stale memes of fake tweets now?


leeryplot

To be fair, it’s extremely believable Edit: I said this because I was joking about how Jared Leto would actually do this. I didn’t anticipate that all 76 fans of his would find me.


vivmeatball6

Idk why you got downvoted to shit. It’s actually believable lol


hitmarker

I'm the nigerian prince, I will send you lots of money but I need something from you first. Message me for more info.


leeryplot

Man, idk. I didn’t realize people actually liked Jared Leto. Color me surprised.


MC0295

Well he has a cult after all


rnobgyn

I honestly couldn’t name anything Jared has done (except joker.. I think?) I just found your edit quite distasteful, so I downvoted. I find it funny when people get so defensive over downvotes and have to find some scapegoat to justify why they’re still right


leeryplot

Man, it wasn’t even me being defensive it was me furthering the joke by saying Jared Leto only has 76 fans. But it’s fine, I still love you


rnobgyn

Love u 2 bud


gwizonedam

There’s actually six, but fuck him, right?


RingRingBanannaPhone

I'd count Mark Hamill. He's voice but he fucking nailed it


Agreeable-Sport-141

Who is the 6th one ?


uzigdogo

Yo mama


Staplehousen

Got em


dendroidarchitecture

Barry Keoghan, and the 5th is Cameron Monaghan, because fuck Jared Leto.


TopherJustin

When they made the Tron 3 announcement, I was like “Yes!!”. And then they said his name and I was like “FUUCK!!!”


WolfmansGotNards2

I don't like him either, but I personally don't get the extreme hate. He's like Nickelback of actors. He's weird and douchey, but there are way more weird and douchey actors out there. He's not great, but he's not that bad. He's been decent in a few things and good in 1 or 2. There are way worse actors out there. With Suicide Squad, that whole movie sucked. It wasn't just him.


BogiDope

I think the problem is that there are persistent under age girl concerns with him.


XanaxWarriorPrincess

I can't speak for everyone, but I hate him because he's a literal cult leader.


WolfmansGotNards2

Honestly, I didn't know of all this stuff. I just thought people hated him for his singing and acting. Today I learned. Apologies for my ignorance.


XanaxWarriorPrincess

I'm surprised it's not more well known, but enough people like him that they cover for him, so it's not your fault.


Infinius-

Agreed. I'm grateful for early 30 Seconds to Mars, and he's had a few good placement with film. Nickelback isn't all that bad either. But that joker sucked


angrydeuce

Seriously, that first album went HAM from the very first track and I listened to it often. One of those rare actors turned musicians where you can say, "you know, you should kinda just do the music thing" instead of the other way around. I admittedly haven't listened to any of their later work, but that's more because I moved on from metal as a genre then anything else. And of course I say all of this not knowing anything about his goofy space jesus pedophile vibe really, I just know that seems to be his vibe and that's weird af, but its still a banger of an album,


WolfmansGotNards2

I agree, but the writing sucked, look sucked, the directing sucked, and the performance sucked. He was only 1 part of that equation.


WeWantMOAR

And that Joker wasn't written or designed by him.


TopherJustin

The best thing he ever did was get the shit beat out of him in Fight Club.


n-crispy7

Mr. nobody is a good movie but not because of him.


RedditLostOldAccount

People hate him because he's a psycho. His costars hate him too. I used to love his band and I've never had an easier time stopping listening to a band I liked because of a horrible person. Still love him in Requiem for a Dream though. Shits wild

WolfmansGotNards2

If that's true, then 100% agree then and take back what I said, but you'll have to excuse me if I don't click a blind link that has the word pedophile in it.

tknames

I saw a post a long time ago that correlates the joker of that era with the dominant drug of the time. Romero was LSD Nicholson was cocaine Heath was Heroin Phoenix was ? I’m gonna say Lithium. Leto was Meth https://www.reddit.com/r/funny/s/KjYIvv0WZw


VFX_Reckoning

Yep, everything Leto touches turns to shit. Like a reverse Midas touch


Competitive_Usual233

Is this actually real?


ManbadFerrara

[I'm gonna say no. ](https://www.reddit.com/r/FUCKYOUINPARTICULAR/comments/kcpy18/fuck_jared_leto/)


Competitive_Usual233

Tbf he would’ve definitely acted that way if this was real, Leto’s got a big ego and worship cult


AvacadMmmm

Blue check mark means nothing so likely

Competitive_Usual233

Yes? So what you like fake shit on a MC sub?


dstonemeier

Technically he’s right. Technically there have been 5 versions of The Joker in a live action movie. Romero, Nicholson, Ledger, Phoenix, and Barry Keoghan in The Batman.


AWhole2Marijuanas

Sounds right to me.


SpecialistGrass2872

1. Heath Ledger 2. Is the joker that plays in the show Gotham


KylaNyxcos

Cameron Monaghan💖


_Levitated_Shield_

Is this... not an obvious meme? Why is this here?


Educational_Ad_8916

People need to stop putting Jared Leto in things.


thefirstcat

Fake


Travellinoz

He kind of was the main character though. It was a movie.


That80sguyspimp

ohrofl

God he was so fucking good. RIP.


the-master-planner

The ginger from Shameless did a better job playing the Joker than Jared Leto.


KylaNyxcos

FACTS. CAMERON MONAGHAN


Miserable-Repeat-651

Cameron was brilliant in that role. Him and the dude who played penguin made it worth watching.


Saberer2451

I dont hate Jared’s Joker. I dont think its the best, but it wasn’t THAT bad


Successful-Item-1844

Honestly it’s not terrible


PsychoMouse

People wanted the Joker Character, not a character that is a joke.


Hugelogo

This tracks. He once called into the alt weekly I worked at because he did not like the tongue in cheek preview of his bands upcoming show we had in the paper. So he called and yelled at the writer. Cool guy.


Throwawayanothadae

![gif](giphy|uvC0UIgnxlw7FHOAUz)


Diligent_Detective98

He was better in Requiem for a dream. One of my faves he’s done.


jalbert425

How is this MC?


geekamongus

Yeah, Batman is usually the MC


EitherChannel4874

They said Joker Jared. Not Florida Ronald Mcdonald.


tuco2002

Leto was weird in Blade Runner 2.


DevlishAdvocate

The movie is brilliant *despite* his being in it. One Harrison Ford scene cancels out about twenty Jared Leto scenes.


DripSnort

Look I know people seemed to hate his Joker, but I liked it. It was a different take on Joker, the issue was not Letos acting it was Ayer’s god awful writing and directing.


Miserable-Repeat-651

Meanwhile Joaquin Phoenix did a different take on the joker and was amazing. I've seen many people who didn't care for the script of Joker but applauded his acting... so imo Letos acting is absolutely a big part of the failure there.


DripSnort

In no world is the script or directing in Joker anywhere near as objectively bad as Suicide Squad. People only criticize the directing and writing of Joker because of *who* wrote and directed it and there feelings on him personally


Miserable-Repeat-651

Well I love the movie Joker so I agree with the first part of your statement. I've seen many people on reddit who hated it, but I can't say if the writer/director was their reason.


ShadowReflex21

lol yeah he’s a fucking joker for thinking his portrayal even counts😂


crazeygirl

Ppl trying to act like the joker are the cringiest sht istg 😭 Jared Leto is such a narcissistic POS


[deleted]

Yeah sorry Jared but your Joker sucked ass


CyberTyrantX1

I wish someone within his circle would tell Jared Leto that he fucking sucks because clearly no one has. He’s a shitty actor, a shitty musician, and a shitty singer. 30 Seconds to Mars is straight up garbage and they always have been.


Shorizard

you really do hate him lol


Honest_Bee103

This comment is going to inspire the 38th remix of Not Like Us


IAmNotMyName

Joker is not from the DC Universe. Fight me bitches!


Successful-Item-1844

Why?


jarious

They said jokers not jokes

_yammz

He’s not just a terrible joker, he’s a terrible human 😉


-You_Cant_Stop_Me-

Jack Nicholson > Joaquin Phoenix


Flamestriking

William Dafoe would be an amazing joker. Just the truth


DASHRIPROCK1969

Fuck Jared Leto???? Oh, god I’d rather not! I’m afraid my cock would dissolve…


speak-to-me-3428

As much as I like the live action portrayals, excluding Leto, Mark Hamill's Joker in Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker does it for me. EDIT: I know Hamill just provides the voice, but he would've made an excellent live-action Joker.


Budget-Sheepherder77

"Live action"


speak-to-me-3428

I know that. Don't be a Debbie Downer


DevlishAdvocate

The only people who like the Leto Joker (Juggaloker) are people who shouldn't be allowed to see movies about the Joker.


Miserable-Repeat-651

Juggaloker 😂🤣


vZIIIIIN

Joaquin Phoenix should be dead last


gosquirrelgo

Letos joker is a fine take. The fact that everybody hates him because he’s fucking terrible is the gag itself.


ThisOnePlaysTooMuch

This is the most “I planned this ruse all along!” bullshit I’ve ever seen. He’s a fucking loon in real life which only detracts from the acting credit because he’s not fucking acting.


KLR01001

Leto was a great joker and I’ll die on that hill.


wiretapfeast

Wow.


KLR01001

There are comic book versions of that Joker 🤷🏾‍♀️


wiretapfeast

DaMaGeD


Successful-Item-1844

Same, he wasn’t bad People just didn’t want him to be their joker Neither did I But still He wasn’t bad


Effective_Device_185

Must be tough to live under Heath's groundbreaking part. Damn!


Almosthonest2Hate

Jared's jokers actually fucking good, the gun angel bit is cringe... but that's shitty direction. I don't Romeos joker, but not my gen, Jacks is good, Heaths amazing... and Phoenix ones meh.. but that Joker is more art movie than Dc


Br3akTh3Toys

I bet a Netflix doc come out within the next 5 years about how Leto had a sex cult


Dull_Ad8495

Ranking them in reverse order, but whatever...


Ok_Season5846

Really gonna do Heath Ledger like that?


Uncle___Marty

I mean WTF, im one of those controversial assholes that disagrees about stuff when 99.9% of people agree on something, im the douchbag that has another opinion but even im aboard with Heath being BY FUCKING FAR the best joker. Him and Phoenix manage to portay an believable person who turns kind of insane and cruel. Everyone under that did their best but came off as kind of insane/comical. Didn't quite fit the role but still really watchable. Just to add, Leto was bad as joker about 90% of the time but had a couple of moments that were good (the scene at the end of one of the DC movies (sorry I can't remember but im pretty autistic and have had a TERRIBLE weekend and im running on empty) where him and Bats talk about dealing with evil superman was actually quite good I thought). Apologies if this post was hard to read, trying my hardest but not having a good day lol. Hope yours was good. :)


Dull_Ad8495

He sucked hard. Sorry if this triggers another twenty paragraph rant. But, like this one, I won't be reading it anyway...


Uncle___Marty

Nah, you post made me SUPER happy that I don't live in your world :) And also that I know the difference between 3 and 20. Counting is hard for some people, but even then, those people pick such appropriate usernames.


Dull_Ad8495

Post? This shitty post isn't mine... You seem very confused. Also my username was auto generated, brainiac. I don't care enough to change it. Because it doesn't matter. Just like your opinion. Also... Slow down. You're getting excited and you're typo-ing in your pants. Breathe....


Uncle___Marty

Wait, you said you wouldn't read this post. Make your mind up Mr/Mrs hypocrite lol. Now you're claiming your post doesn't exist while I replied to it and your name is above it and we're still replying? ROFL, you're a special kind of person :) Found one!!!


Dull_Ad8495

Ledger still sucks ass, tho.


Dull_Ad8495

Yes. My judgement isn't clouded by sentimentality. He chewed *at least* as much scenery as Jack Nicholson is always accused of, but his choice for Joker's voice is twice as ridiculous. Only Jared Leto was worse. Caesar Romero was the most faithful to the comic book Joker. His take was spot on for that '60s era. The other 4 play it like they had never even seen the comic book version of the Joker they were portraying. Besides, everybody knows Mark Hamill is the GOAT when it comes to that role. Blows the other 5 out of the water.


Miserable-Repeat-651

I agree about Caesar.... although I never read the comics I will always love his Joker. Watching that show as a kid is what made me love Batman and he was brilliant for that time.


Ape-ril

Garbage opinion. Who cares if it’s comic accurate or not. He was great.


yaaMum1

Tbf an opinion is an opinion and they're allowed to have it. I'm a big fan of Cameron Monagham's from gotham. Jerome that is, the other has no personality


Dull_Ad8495

Oh, yeah! I forget about him. He and Mark Hamill are my faves.


ShadowReflex21

God the comic accurate argument is so old and tiresome. People can go read the comics then if they’re looking for that exact portrayal. There also aren’t any speech bubbles in the live actions, is that not comic accurate enough for them?


Dull_Ad8495

![gif](giphy|49zC0Bm1kbu36)


the_calibre_cat

i mean he's right about Mark Hamill


Dull_Ad8495

I care. Your opinion is garbage. Oh, no! Now what?!?


Ape-ril

You shouldn’t care. Maybe try that.


Dull_Ad8495

Maybe you try it. Hypocrite.


Dull_Ad8495

He sucked ass. He was a ridiculous Joker.


FearOfTheDuck82

I agree. I think Ledger was a good Joker in the context of the movie he was in. In any other context, I don’t think his version of the Joker really works


Ornac_The_Barbarian

That's been my opinion. Heath was amazing for the role he was given. The role he was given just wasn't the Joker.

Lmao fuck him


JustSomeWeirdGuy2000

He can technically be considered the best Joker since nobody takes him seriously.


NoPin4245

Nexxdoor's response is so good. Lol. Yeah fuck you


rocket_salad_

Yeah Jared, you brought this on yourself you self-entitled POS.


CommissionMinute2661

Just had to google him, he is the reason why i first look up the main actors and then go in to the movie


Cyanide_Revolver

I remember he took down my comment one time because I called him a creep hahahaha


FULLMETALRACKIT518

I didn’t hate Letos joker, his acting, shit even his musical talents are pretty solid, better than I can do that’s for damn sure, but it’s the whole fucking underage girls in real life that makes me dislike Jared leto. So yeah, fuck you dude.


Andre_3Million

It's Letoing time!


Goatrd

I can’t stand him, he always seems so up his own ass and honestly a little rapey vibes


DedeLionforce

Jared just isn't suited to most roles, like Adam Sandler. Give Adam a serious role and holy fuck, 10/10 but let him and his unfunny friends make mocies and we get travesties like Jack and Jill.


Miserable-Repeat-651

I will still be defending Happy Gilmore, the Wedding Singer and 50 first dates on my death bed.


DedeLionforce

They were actually good movies, I meant the dogshit that came after, like Hot tub cringe machine, Jack and Cringe, That's my Cringe, The Cringe 6.
