I think we can safely add Alan Tudyk’s rendition to the ranks.
He even has the N we need!

I didn’t like the Joker in the Harley cartoon. In this series, he seems like a dude nearing retirement age.
To be fair, he isn’t the main character and I like what they did with he and his newfound family. It was very entertaining. He changes towards the end as well, but again it is all about Harley’s world of which he is only a tangent.
Joker, best Mayor or Gatham City.
No love for Alan Tudyk?
When I started watching Harley Quinn I was like “They didn’t get Mark Hamill for the Joker?? This is a travesty!” But he does do a very good job with the role, and Clayface is just fun.
Clayface and Bane are highlights.
Alan Tudyk definitely does Joker a service as well.
I agree wholeheartedly.
When Bane went to Italy to fix the pasta maker I thoroughly enjoyed that entire story line.
The writing on HQ is superb.
I love the show and it’s cool to see a relationship between two people of the same gender be portrayed as loving and a real partnership. I hope they never decide to do a breakup episode, even if they get back together by the end. I don’t think Harley and Ivy should ever stop loving each other.
I like to think Alan and Mark have the same cosmic acting energy whatever that is
King Shark never fails to make me laugh. Ron Funches is hilarious.
Yes, I was very excited when King Shark spoke. I thought, “I know that voice and I love him!”
First saw him in Powerless and very much enjoyed his onscreen persona.
Too new, most people haven’t seen it. I’ve barely watched half a season of HQ and he’s not in it much.
2019 was the start and I’ve happily watched all four seasons. A fifth season is on the way.
I don’t know, but when I first caught it I loved it and have spread the word amongst my peers. I am older, so maybe I am out of touch with what the young folks are watching (my nephews have seen it). Alan Tudyk plays both Joker and Clayface. Joker is in it quite a bit, but they fade him out for a few reasons. Then he comes back.
They also use so many other celebrity voices. You’ll think, “Hey, I know that voice!” Indeed you do. Ron Funches and Tony Hale are wonderful in their roles.
So keep watching and you’ll see a lot more of him. That is, if you like the show. I think it’s excellent and well worth the time.

Holy shit he’s the voice for clay face???
Yes. Hilarious character.

I’m not against a “gangster” version of the Joker, because a lot of the Batman lore is about the different gangs of henchmen so the Joker is as much a gang leader as anyone else. AND I’ll go out and say he was not the worst thing in that movie… but yeah they could have done a lot better with the casting. But hey, still better than Eisen-Luthor!
Honestly, Leto was fine. The “gangster” joker was just too childish an interpretation, and his dialogue was just goofy. It wasn’t a cohesive character. The design was so over the top terrible that it looped back around. The tattoos always get me giggling.
That’s what I liked about Heath’s, remove the make up, it’s just some crazy guy like Trevor from GTAV. Or Jack on the contrary who went theatrical as a show man, like a clown is, but take the make up off and he’d probably totally chill and blend in.
Jared Leto seems to have a knack for doubling-down on bad execution instead of reviewing and refining.
Let’s see Paul Allen’s Joker. Ohh I guess we did.
Is that the voice actor of Charlie the unicorn?
Ye, the crew produced videos relatively prolifically until they produced nothing for a few years. You may also recognize him from such roles as Chris Brown and an assortment of cats.
I like to think of it as “So close but so far”
If it was just a little bit different in a lot of ways it could have been epic. I think the biggest thing that hamstrung it was the sheer lack of any origin grounding to explain the why of it.
Is this more of a ‘fuck Jared Leto’ thread?
Always.
As much as he might deserve it for his personality, no, my comments here are genuinely because I just didn’t think his version was as good as others.
I would love to remember Suicide Squad fondly, but LA Joker ruined it for me. I can’t think about that movie without seeing his sick grill in my head.
But the next two movies are better. :)
Actors, always promoting their work 💀 >!/jk, love all you do here!<
Thanks! Also, you should have seen me when I was promoting Barbie here in July.
I did, I have interacted with you before! Still no autographs sent my way 🥺
The coolest image of the Joker in my ranking is the drawn Joker from this poster. In the old cartoon series, he most closely resembles the embodiment of evil and inadequacy.
The 90s cartoon series is my favorite iteration of Batman by far.
The Jo ^n ker
maybe leto’s version should be called JONKER
Missing Cameron Monaghan
Technically never called the joker, but yeah
While it might not be the most popular opinion, I personally appreciated Leto’s interpretation of the Joker. He’s no Heath Ledger, of course, but considering how often the character has been brought to life, I thought Leto’s performance was at least unique.
For me, it was too brief to even count as an interpretation. I don’t get how people can compare Leto’s performance to Ledger’s or Phoenix’s, simply because of how much more there is to the latter two’s, not even taking into account artistic quality or interpretation.
It was supposed to be a franchise. Honestly, it’s not like Leto was bad as the Joker, it’s his off screen antics and the rest of the movie being absolute trash that killed the reception.
But I also don’t really mind Joker being a bit of a fuckboi. There are two perfect Jokers, Ledger and Hamill, and no one will be able to top them, so you might as well try something new.

I don’t think the problem with Leto’s Joker was Leto, but the production and the script
He’s not wrong. Leto joker turned a nuanced and intelligent villain into an edgy Facebook teen going through a phase. All the interesting subtlety washed out in place of “damaged” tattoos
Joker
Nuanced and intelligent
Okay, sure, we can pretend Ledger’s Joker is the only depiction of him ever.
Where is Greg?
