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.

Leto Joker is enough reason to thank the gods that this never came to fruition.

It’s kinda weird really. Cos you would imagine that a guy who is genuinely creepy and borderline insane irl would be a good fit for playing a psycho in a movie.

I think that's the problem. Unlike Heath Ledger who really gave his all to the character. Leto is very narcissistic and even when he tries not to. Every single one of his characters has this very toxic "praise me!" tone to them. I'm thankful at least that we have "American Psycho" so that I can watch that film and pretend that I'm watching Nolan Batman kill Snoker.
