Well, he's got green hair and a grin, he must be the joker, right? Guys?

Yeah, not like this poser, he doesn't even have a grin.

Looks sick.
Can't fucking wait for this movie.
Will Smith told Leto never left the character the whole filming time.

Easily the worst rendition of The Joker I've ever seen. The fuck is up with those trousers? Looks like something you'd see a chav wearing back in 2005 or some shit. Ugh.
 
Looks lame. I don't really like the vibe of the current DC movies, they are trying to fuse the 'seriousness' of the recent Batman films with a cartoonish universe full of superheroes and villains, it doesn't work for me. The tattoos just seem like they are trying way too hard.
 
I don't care much for the look but I think characterization and acting is most of the battle to make it work. I didn't care for Ledger's crazy hair and sloppy makeup either, but his acting helped sell it.

The costume design in this movie is the worst in recent memory and this pretty much confirms it along Deadshot's hockey pads.

Looks like a lot of people disagree this Halloween.

For the most part, yeah. The joker has always been changing.

Yeah. it's utterly bizarre that they went with the costume design that they did, given that this film inhabits the same world as the larger DCCU (MoS/BvS). The "everything has tattoos/all the costumes and props have stupid writing on them" aesthetic being greenlighted is a truly baffling decision. Like I could even maybe understand if just Joker and Harley were done that way, but like even Deadshot's costume and gun have shit written on them. It's way overdone. Hopefully they tone it down a bit in future films.

Well, supposedly they're giving a lot of freedom to each director, rather than attempting to make everything feel like part of the same "series" like Marvel's movies.
 
Has anyone complained about the tattoos yet? They seriously are so fucking stupid looking. Still think Leto will be good, not real confident in the movie, though.
 
''This movie is going to be terrible''
''Blabla this is not the real Joker blabla''

When will you guys ever learn, seriously?

They're prison issued pants. They say Arkham on the side, they're what he was wearing in the trailer. I would assume they're what he wears when he breaks out of prison and a lackey would bring the coat, bit hard to change trousers in the middle of an escape. But idk that's just what it seems to me.

Right... that's why I said it's baffling; perhaps the next director won't want a character to have, say, permanent facial tattoos, but... the character already has them. So one director's influence carries on into other people's vision. It's... not ideal.
 
ITT: people don't trust David Ayer's design choices.

Seriously people - he's got this!

I watched this film the other night and liked it a lot. I also liked End of Watch.

Is this a sincere post? If not, is the gif meant to indicate something? Because that's some pretty fucking good framing, from where I'm sitting.
 
Kinda genius to get this out for Halloween since Harley Quinns costume is the most popular choice this year. Thinking there's going to be a lot of couple shots.

I'm confused too. Maybe it's the weird laser gun effect from the tanks?

Less permanent than this?


I'd be shocked if they didn't. Korn used to rock that style in the 90's, and that era of nu metal douchbaggery seems to be exactly what they're pulling from with Joker and Harley.

Maybe all the pictures/footage we've seen him from him is before Batman locked them up and retired.
 
Interview with Leto on the subject...

...

The actor is of course very familiar with what goes on in the head of the Clown Prince of Crime, especially as he never broke character during the shoot, something which led to him tormenting his fellow cast members in unique ways. For Jim Parrack (who plays The Joker's henchman, Jonny Frost) that included random calls throughout the day, with orders to spray paint roses black and filling a backpack with nine inch nails. "There was definitely a period of...detachment," Leto explains. "I took a pretty deep dive. But this was a unique opportunity and I couldn't imagine doing it another way. It was fun, playing those psychological games. But at the same time it was very painful, like giving birth out of my prick hole."

Revealing that he listened to 1920s gospel music and read literature on shamans while playing The Joker, Leto offered some interesting insight into this take on the villain when he said, "I always get the sense that The Joker may be much older than people think. It's something different. If you don't break rules, you're not going to strike new ground. I think I'll be cooling down for the rest of my life." Suicide Squad producer Charles Roven also chimed in by revealing that the villain's dress sense has been inspired by Mexican cartels, while he's now, "More social...a very successful and smart businessman besides being a sociopath." Director David Ayer meanwhile had this to say about how Leto's take on the villain will differ to what's come before on the big screen. "The Joker is the third rail of comic book movies. There's a power to that character, and by some freaking miracle, through the incredible things Jared has done and the photography and all the other millions of things that went into it, we've cooked up something transcendent. He's scary."
