Maybe spoilers ahead for the DCCU movies

[User Posted Image]

This makeup just looks god awful to me. I really enjoy the Joker as a villain, he's one of the few things I like from DC, but he just looks like a wacky street thug, not the supervillian genius who has to constantly keep Batman on his toes. He's the Clown Prince of Crime, not some insane gangster.

I really couldn't be LESS excited for the DCCU.

I was so excited for the makeup reveal and then earlier today I saw this...He shouldn't have tattoos and gangster silver teeth. It's fine to change your characters, but you can never stray too far from the source material and that's what they've done now.

why so serious?

But in all honesty, I know they were trying to distance themselves from Nicholson's and Ledger's Jokers, and they certainly did that, but we can only hope his acting will make up for the terrible look.

Hot Topic is gonna have a field day...

I guess I can understand that.. I still can't get over that look though...
Though, if they went the usual way he would probably look too much like Nicholson and Ledger's Jokers, maybe this one will be a breath of fresh air?
I'm trying to get my hopes up, but I'm still skeptical~

Save for Harley Quinn, I feel like Suicide Squad is going to totally suck...

Just abandon your hopes for Suicide Squad tbh
They're basically butchering it.

Nicholson was weird wacky world, Ledger was ultra real world. They could've made Leto's Joker like the cartoons and games where it's real world but not too serious.

Like this guy. He cosplays the Joker at a bunch of cons, this look would be great. It's different from both Ledger's and Nicholson's, It's cartoon but still real world. Meet in the middle, don't you dare make my bae a street thug

I've seen him before, he's just about the greatest Joker cosplayer I've ever seen.

They could have gone with the Arkham or Injustice styles too, those are both realistic yet cartoony.

it's funny because if he had a natural haircolour you literally could not tell that it's the Joker.

I almost feel like this would be more suitable for a character who's trying to imitate The Joker...

...Kind of like what The Flash TV series did with the two Tricksters, I guess. But what do I know?

It's........................not good.

I try to tell people that the DCCU won't suck and Man of Steel didn't suck but that's not a very good impression. If they were trying to make a more realistic and modern Joker, they had it right with Ledger's design and makeup.

Maybe that's the idea. Maybe they're trying to work this as a sort of origin story for The Joker, where he starts small with his little band of goons, but slowly becomes a very serious and legitimate threat as he goes up against Batman. It's grasping for straws I know, but I want to believe there's more to this than what we see here. For one I doubt he's shirtless the whole time.

When's he supposed to be showing up anyway to where they reveal this stuff? Don't tell me he's going to be yet another cameo in BvS.

That'd be an interesting idea, but not one I really enjoy.

To be completely honest he probably is.

I wished they went with New 52 Joker and his sewed on face to show how insane he is but I guess having a "damaged" tattoo is close enough apparently.

Apparently common street thugs are insane

He looks like a psychotic gangster. If it wasn't for the green hair and purple glove and the fact that you said it's the Joker, I probably wouldn't really understand who he is supposed to be tbh
