(Jack Nicholson Impression Post)
i will not speak to the complete joke that suicide squad may or may not be, as a live-action movie, but i think that 'joker as gangster-to-clown archetype' was done much better by Jack Nicholson, regardless of the ham and cheese that 1990's batman had in it, itself derived from 1960's batman.

I will also not eulogize Heath Ledger (again), sad as it was to see him go as an actor worth his chops. Others can do that, Elsewhere. Regardless, both Jokers, in their respective eras and styles, did a much better portrayal of Joker than what i have thusfar seen of Jared Leto's 'Smiley the gang-banger'.

There is of course, the voice-work of Mark Hamill and the animation-verse of Joker (alongside Kevin Conroy as the voice of Batman), but that is animation and perhaps not really part of this topic.
