| Ha ha ha!

That is the best / fucking worst picture I have ever seen. Ever.

Yeah, Heath Ledger plays the Joker a little differently than Ceasar Romero. There is absolutely no camp value in his performance like Romero or Jack Nicholson for that matter. If that is what you think the joker is supposed to be, you will be disappointed. He is the perfect combination of creepy and pure insanity. I wouldn't even call it dark. I would call it disturbing but well done. I heard one review say that the character of the Joker in the comic and the Tim Burton film was an opportunist, stealing and taking advantage with little regard for human life. Ledger's Joker is more of an anarchist and sociopath, out to destroy the establishment. Again, no homo.
