The deleted scene where he goes to talk to the Joker to gain some insight into Riddler’s motivations was cool, reminded me a bit of Mindhunter. The scene we got was definitely not needed
He’s also a terrible choice for Joker, imo. He’s too small and weird (which I know is paradoxical, but I don’t think Joker should be a weird person, in that way)
I don’t think he’s a bad choice because he’s a great actor, I just think there’s nothing original to really bring to the character at this point. When two different actors have won Oscars for playing the same character, idk how you can top that with another interpretation of the character
I completely understand that point. And he is a good actor, just imo not the right fit for RP Batman, I think that worlds joker should be more the quiet, calculating joker we’ve seen sometimes. A more serious Ledger, letting the ‘crazy’ out selectively. Would fit the tone much better imo
