It depends on the kind of Joker that you like. If you want a serious Joker, then Heath Ledger would be the best, but if you want a lighter, yet creepy Joker, then Mark Hamill is the best.

I love Hamill the most but as far as live actual actors I'd have to say Jack Nicholson. Don't, get me wrong, Ledger did a good job but I just love the way Jack does the role it really feels like the man who would have you laughing one minute and have you collecting your guts from the floor the next minute. Ledger had aspect two down but lacked aspect one. Of course Hamill blows both of them out of the water and mounts them on the wall.
That's funny, I see them as the opposite.FourEyedPandora said:It depends on the kind of Joker that you like. If you want a serious Joker, then Heath Ledger would be the best, but if you want a lighter, yet creepy Joker, then Mark Hamill is the best.
But yeah, I get what you mean.
Ledger's Joker was great, but he was an ever serious one-trick pony. I actually find Hamill's Joker a lot funnier and even more frightening, because he is truly unstable. Ledger's Joker was an evil psychotic - a grand performance, to be sure! - , but with Hamill's Joker you never know what to expect... there's no way of knowing if that fart cushion you just sat down on is just for laughs or if it'll kill you with an explosion or Joker gas.
It's a tie between Hamill and Ledger, though with Hamill winning out because of...well, he's Mark Hamill.
Also in a Christmas episode of the animated series he sang "Jingle bells, Batman smells, Robin laid an egg. Batmobile lost its wheel and Joker got away!"
Ledger...is good. But it's too hard to compare the two.

Mark Hamill. Heath Ledger was good, but if there was one Joker that mastered how he acted in the comics, it was Hamill
Oh relax, threads get repeated every day, and this is one of the least severe offenses of repeating a thread I think I've ever seen, in fact, sometimes it's good to repeat if it hasn't been done in a long time, people who didn't see it before can see it, and new people my have a new perspective.Glademaster said:
Many people have surprising talents. And while Mark Hamill has an endless drove of Star Wars fans behind him, I will always enjoy his voice-acting more.

Are you kidding me? The Joker has been the most famous comic book villain for decades. There was a Batman comic made specifically for Japan which featured the Clown as the main villain.Fresh Prince Of =3 said:
The Joker was responsible for reviving the Superhero film genre when he appeared in Tim Burton's Batman.
Even if you haven't read the comics, you know who the Joker is.
