Nickolson's wasn't The Joker...it was Nicholson in a Joker suit - The Calico Cat Coalition Jan 22, 08:17 23
- Because he acts like that in all his other movies? -- nm - con_carne Jan 22, 08:24 3
  - Which was effective in A Few Good Men, but that's about the only thing I've liked him in. -- nm - TWuG Jan 22, 08:25 2
    - His early movies he was acting (Easy Rider, 5 easy pieces, Chinatown) - amoxy Jan 22, 08:27 1
      - Yep...and Pacino and Hoffman are getting there too -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Jan 22, 08:28
- Disagree. The writing was steller, but it needed a great performance to carry it. Ledger brought that. - TWuG Jan 22, 08:19 18
  - For me, his performance in it was like Geoffery Rush In POTC, or Ian McKellan in XMen - The Calico Cat Coalition Jan 22, 08:26 5
    - I have no idea if it's Oscar worthy, but I know it was perfect for the character. -- nm - TWuG Jan 22, 08:27 2
      - See that's the thing, I'm not saying he sucked, or wasn't even the best Joker ever...I just feel the competition in other movies did better -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Jan 22, 08:31 1
        
        and you're wrong. *shrug* - znufrii Jan 22, 08:41
    - have you been smoking your BBQ rub again? -- nm - znufrii Jan 22, 08:26 1
      - Let me guess...you are a method actor? -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Jan 22, 08:32
  - You never saw Roar! -- nm - Amy Jan 22, 08:24
  - No Brokeback Mountain, 10 Things I hate about you, A Knights Tale? -- nm - amoxy Jan 22, 08:20 10
    - Nope. Saw the first 5 or 10 minutes of A Knight's Tale. The Queen music made me puke. Very bad match. Don't care about a touching gay love story - TWuG Jan 22, 08:22 6
      - You might like the Patriot. -- nm - Amy Jan 22, 08:27 3
        
        Oh. Yeah. That was him in that. Really, really, really hated that film. Was the Last Gibson film I ever saw. - TWuG Jan 22, 08:29 2
        
        Ledger was good in Monster's Ball as well -- nm - Roger More Jan 22, 08:35 1
        
        freakin amazing in that - Epiphany Jan 22, 08:40
      - Watch 10 Things...It is one of my favorite Teen movies -- nm - amoxy Jan 22, 08:25
      - Then I feel sorry for you. -- nm - Rorschach: 03/06/09!!! Jan 22, 08:25
    - what makes me realize just how good Leger's performance was is... - Mel Profit Jan 22, 08:22 2
      - Jack's Joker looked like Jack. Ledger's Joker didn't really resemble Ledger to me at all. -- nm - TWuG Jan 22, 08:24 1
        
        Word. -- nm - znufrii Jan 22, 08:28
Agreed. Ledger..........................Romero....... Nicholson. - TWuG Jan 22, 08:15 1
- Ledger...Hamill.................Romero....... ......will need three more room for dots to get to Nicholsons -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Jan 22, 08:19
