I do think that Jack Nicholson did a great job as the Joker. Especially in a Tim Burton film that really would have leaned more heavily into the dark side, he did a great job of keeping him light.

That's Joker's best quality or most entertaining quality, is he turns on a whim and is completely unpredictable.

Ledger did a great job of making the Joker more relevant to todays world and it was a very unique spin on the character that I thoroughly enjoyed.

The part where he talks about not wanting to kill Batman to his face, that to me was the best performance of the Joker in any form outside the comics.



The Joker bathes in chaos and disruption. Ledger nailed that part. But he also gives Batman some insight into his thought process and the fact that he isn't just a chaotic freak, he understands logic and has his own set of principles that he operates inside of. You can see the revelation on Bale's face during the scene. It really is amazing.

So I guess I talked myself into Ledger. I don't think it's even close for anyone else besides those two.

Hamill gets the nod as the most comic accurate Joker I guess, but the comic accurate version doesn't translate well to the big screen so that isn't a fair comparison. He nailed the theatric side of the character, but isn't allowed to go as dark as the character can or does as it is a kids show.
