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.Comment

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".Comment

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.You must try to generate happiness within yourself. If you aren't happy in one place, chances are you won't be happy anyplace. -Ernie BanksComment

^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...

And here I thought he got it from hanging around Mel Gibson too much when they did The Patriot.Comment

Strangely, I like Tom Waits and hate Ledgers Joker.Expectation is the death of discovery.Comment

I see some of it, maybe, but certainly not enough to proclaim, "OMG, HE INSPIRED LEDGER'S JOKER!"
I've been a Tom Waits fan for years and never made any kind of correlation between Tom and TDK Joker. Then again, I actually like the guy's music, not his body movements or speaking voice.Type Two: The Mego body, not the disease.Comment

Wow! That was really something interesting.
