Thread: Wait's '79 = Ledger Joker? Fascinating!

    Bat Wait's '79 = Ledger Joker? Fascinating!

    This really tripped me out. If indeed this was Ledgers inspiration I am completely fascinated and impressed beyond words. Crawls the skin in that god kooky / spooky way....

    1970s Tom Waits is my ultimate fave. This is a strange mirror, though.

    As a huge Tom Waits fan I thought Ledger's performance was a lot of fun, but I absolutely kept seeing it as cross between Tom Waits and Jeff Goldblum's physical mannerisms from mid-transformation in "The Fly".

    That was FREAKY. Oddly enough, just last night I was flipping channels and landed briefly on "A Knight's Tale". I told my wife it's hard to believe THIS guy played the Joker, and I wondered just where he got his take, his mannerisms, his voice from. And today, I apparently get my answer!!!

    wow, all this time I could not figure out what it was that seemed familiar about the Joker.

    That's incredible. I had no idea he was doing Waits, but there's no question.

    ^It's an odd movie...but it's a lot of fun. I like it a lot myself. The love interest and her weird hair styles bother me a bit, but other than that...
