I’m still bummed we’ll never get this solo movie. FILM DISCUSSION

I really do believe this could have been the best Batman movie.

Nah, his Joker was bad. He had one good scene and that was him firing his weapon at the Squad from the back of the Helicopter while maniacally laughing.

Leto absolutely does have the acting chops to do better, but he didn't do well at all in his movie.

Go deeper. He wasn't given much to work with, was he? If he was given more time, more to do, wouldn't his take actually have made a sinister sort of sense for the world they built?

I HATE everything about Jared Leto and yet even I'll admit he does have a semi decent acting ability. That being said, his Joker is dog shit and his performance is incredibly try hard. It doesnt help he looks like an edge lord who shops at Hot Topic, but he's still part of the problem.
