One of the most popular videos we've done on the channel is a comparison of Jared Leto and Heath Ledger's Joker characters. At the time, we said Heath was clearly the best Joker ever and one of the greatest villains ever put on screen. But now, a new challenger as emerged. Joaquin Phoenix's Joker has made a huge splash, and I think it's time to review the new film, and compare how each Joker works on our emotions. Which should be especially interesting, since they actually function in opposite ways.
The following videos are referenced in this one:
