    Even Ledger admits Jack was a huge influence. He really threw himself in that role in researching all the different takes from TV to Jack. It's almost unfair trying to pick who was better as they were both amazing yet different enough from each other that makes it harder to compare.

    if you'd take Jack over Ledger you're a mentally emotionally and spiritually retarded comic purist fanboy that isn't allowed to have opinions on acting ever again

    Nicholson was terrific as the Joker no doubt but Ledger's performance was one of the best in any movie for any role in cinematic history.

    I prefer Nicholson. Best live-action Joker imo.

    How many years ago was that revelation, it still hasn't been resolved or addressed, right? I don't remember Batman doing anything after getting the answer..

    I missed most of the Batman talk, but seems relevant.

    I think it's a toss up though. Ledger had an onscreen time of like 20-30 minutes but you felt that menace almost the while time. Jack on the other hand brought you into his world and kept you entertained with his madness. Case in point was the short museum sequence.

    Rumor: Story Details
    Spoiler: show
    Phoenix's Joker will start the movie as Arthur Fleck. Yes, the iconic Batman villain has been given a name, something not even the comic books have done over the years. Apparently, it's thought that Fleck returns home to live with his aging mother Penny before meeting Sophie Dumond, the single mother and love interest who will be played by Beetz.

    Here's where things get really shocking, though. The site reveals that Fleck's mother was "very attractive in her youth" and that she's "obsessed with her former employer." The site speculates that could be Thomas Wayne, someone described as being in his 60s and seen as "cheesy, tanned, and rich-looking" by The Joker. They then theorise that Fleck could be Wayne's bastard son, making the villain Bruce Wayne/Batman's half-brother, a unique twist on the bizarre relationship these two have.

    Um he has a name in the comics... (at least one of them does) the same name as Jack Nicholson's Joker at that. In fact him as Jack Napier instead of Joker was a huge focus of the batman series that ended a few months ago. So no the comics have done it

    Ledger's Joker wins because of this. The fallout from the Joker's actions was massive. Even affected the third movie.

    Nicholson's Joker was entertaining, but everyone in Gotham called it a night after he died lol
