I could listen to Jack talk about anything. What a charismatic and hypnotic person.
His voice does have this strangely soothing sound to it.
R0gue0ne Nicholson's co-star from 'Five easy pieces'-- Billy Greenbush was far more magnetic an actor!
What's funny is, he NEVER does these sorts of things. You'll never see him do television interviews, so the fact he was so into these featurettes is pretty cool.
Jack has such a cool calming collective voice.
when he talked about Kobe after his passing and got emotional that really broke me down
Jack Nicholson said in an interview that portraying the Joker is among his favorite roles. And his performance was among the highlights of the film.
The joker had more character development than Batman in the film
@@brandonb3174 So I've heard.
Really? Aww we’ll that’s great to know, cuz he was amazing. Although the things in his mouth to make him smile big was very painful for him. Which lets b honest I’m sure anyone would feel
As good as Jack was as the Joker, I always assumed (incorrectly) that given his star status and somehwhat prickly public persona, this role was just a paycheck to him. It is fascinating, and satisfying, to learn that I was wrong and not only was he really involved creatively with the development of the make-up, but that he also clearly was invested in getting the character from the comic books to leap from the page and not be silly. Fantastic.
Isn’t the Joker supposed to be silly on some level?
@@knightofarkronia8652 Yeah but not comic silly for the film -- not Romero silly. That's not a dig at Romero, his Joker was right for the 60s TV show. Batman '89 was expressly trying to lean away from that and more toward the tone of the Dark Knight Returns graphic novel. Nicholson understood the assignment, hence the debate over hair coloring. His Joker was "real-world" silly yet fiendish, deranged.
He respected the comic and the fans. Fantastic.
If you know Jack, you would know that he is really 100% in his movies and acting. One of the greats
Dude grew up reading the Batman comics and had huge respect for the joker 🃏 😊
The fact that Nicholson was so attentive to the lighting aspect of the hair shows he is a lot more than what a lot of people give him credit for.
1:30 love how invested in the role he was, and how right he was about the hair and other aspects of Joker.
the performer really makes the character, the best example being heath ledger's joker. if someone else played that joker, it would be absolutely nothing like heath's, almost everything memorable about him was made up by him. the lip licking thing he does was actually because the prosthetics for his scars would come loose, and he had to lick his lips a lot to keep them in place, and he decided that he could implement that into the character by emphasising that his face is scarred
"when you look at the drawings..." even better to hear that he was actually using the source material
@@bigmikeystyle I think jack’s the closest we’re gonna get to the golden age joker from the 40s-early 50s because that’s the version he grew up reading
It's great to see how much thought he put into the original look of the Joker from the comics and how it would adapt to a film. He was right about the green wig!!!
Yes, it’s very similar to the blue in Batman’s cape. It seems more like a lighting effect at times rather than the cape itself being bright blue.
“You ever dance with the devil in the pale moonlight” - Jack Nicholson 1989
@trueman mann It's a quote from The Joker in Batman the Movie (1989) xd
I always ask that of all my prey, I just like the sound of it BANG!
Why is it every time I come for you, someone always gets in the way!
I’m only laughing on the outside my smile is just skin deep, if you see inside I’m really crying, you might join me for a weep!
Ahhhh VAAAROOOOOMMMMM!
Yes, I’ve watch the first ever Batman movie way too much. Memorized all the jokers lines as a teenager😂
Interestingly enough, the guy that kills Bruce's parents says "by the pale moonlight".
Tommy Wisseau*
What? - Michael Keaton 1989
"What's with that silly grin?"
Joker:"life's been good to me"
used to think it was a tragedy , but it's a comedy
@@NitpickingNerd Life is a comedy to those that think, but a tragedy to those that feel.
in the german dub he says "I'm standing on the sun side of life" :]
“What if we say no?”
Loool
Jack's always had something of a maniacal smile anyway, so pretty perfect fit for Joker. Just enhance a bit and away you go.
Rekaert
O b
Why oh WHY couldn't Tim keep him alive at the end, so he could reprise the role alongside Michael Keaton in this new "Flashpoint" movie?
maniacal but not eccentric, not really a match
"My Ballons, those are my Ballons! HE STOLE MY BALLOONS!!! WHY DIDN'T SOMEBODY TELL ME HE HAD ONE OF THOSE.....THINGS!!!!"
Im going to need a moment or two alone boys...
SvendleBerries “Get outta here!”
Bob.
Your Gun
I still feel sorry for him in that scene! 😂 ... the way he says “my balloons” ... poor joker ☹️ haha
What are you laughing at?!?!
"You look fine"
Jack: "I didn't ask"
*THUG LIFE*
The look he gave her😂
NEVER RUB ANOTHER MAN'S RHUBARB.
I remember being sent to the principal's office in fifth grade for saying that in class.
@@kevinsullwold2388 Hahaha!!!! Thats epic man! Good for you!!
I always preferred "Bob, I'm of a mind to make a mookie." even though, or perhaps because, I didn't know what the hell he was talking about.
Best comic movie line!!!
@@kevinsullwold2388 😂😂
I got in trouble in the 3rd grade for dropping the F Bomb. Only I was just quoting The Mighty Ducks, "...you mess with the whole flock."
What the hell could she think I was talking about anyway?
"I have taken off my makeup. Let's see if you can take off yours."
That was actually a lie the Joker said.
The moment that immediately follows that is interestingly badass.
I like Jack's interpretation of the character, how he notices the smaller details (elongated facial features, the black hair with the green sheen) from the source material that help translate the character to the screen
He’s just such a natural for the role. You can tell he put a lot of his heart into it
How he wasn't even nominated for an Oscar is beyond me.
They don't nominate comic book characters unless you die a tragic death
who cares... Oscars are rigged anyway... all politics
The same reason Pacino wasn’t nominated for playing Big Boy Caprice!
@@sdprazak Actually, Pacino *_was_* nominated for playing Big Boy Caprice (Best Supporting Actor - 1991).
At the time, no one in the Academy took super hero films seriously. They were more of a niche kinda genre. Of course everything changed when The Dark Knight and MCU came out
Letting Jack Nicholson playing the Joker was the GREATEST decision ever made in movie history. He killed it with that performance. He was frightening AND funny at the same time and the best live action version of a literal comic book super villain. Absolutely without competition.
It made people take superhero comic book movies seriously.
Until Heath Ledger comes along. Academy Award material.
He was terrifying to me. Never funny. I don’t see the Joker as a funny character. He is a villain who murders people with no remorse.
@@allanmckenzie5961Heath isn’t the Joker to me. He did his best, but Jack is perfect in the role.
This man, the good old Jack, is One of the best actors whose ever played on the screen. He lived his roles.
So true.
Up there with any of the best.
Brando. Bogart. Cagney. Stewart. Heston. Wells. Astair. Chaplin.
Jack is 100% up there with any of the greats. You can name anyone.
jack is hella respectful to the makeup artists and their process, nice
*you wouldn't hit a guy with glasses would you?*
The pen is indeed mightier than the sword
*takes glasses off of face and hits you with it* yes but I can hit a guy with glasses
*italian slaps across the face so hard the glasses fall off*
Yeah i would
You idiot you made me!!!!
"You don't want that level of clowning" Jack is an absolute nut and genius
Michael McMullen you never go full clown
@@radarlovedr he was no Simple Jack
The prosthetic smile really works well. It augments Nichloson. The same way the laugh and the mania do. It all works together very, very well
Man I loved this joker's attitude coming up lol. "😕 I didn't ask" haha
I remember the cinema exploding with laughter at his sass!!!!!!!
In my opinion, Jack was the best Joker. The suits he wore before and as the Joker in the movie are my favorite style. I think Jack Nicholson was the overall definition of the Joker as he was funny, crazy, ruthless and in a way smart.
“THIS TOWN NEEDS AN ENEMA!”
I like him already
Who doesn't ?
Most memorable line for me from the movie, even more than the "Dance with the devil in the pale moonlight" line. Perhaps because it's so funny, and more applicable now to most cities than ever before.
Jack Nicholson’s Joker literally gave me nightmares.
ATV STUDIOS man me too.i had one with 3 jokers.i was in a restaraunt with family and 3 jokers were in a booth behind me 1 was heath ledger the one who spoke was nicolson and the other was violently mentally and physically retarded.in a straight jacket slamming his head around and laughing as hard as he could.nicolson knew i was batman and was pretending. sarcastically like he didnt know. talking about how he would kill batman and his loved ones.i acted like nothing was wrong not to alert my family and calmly left the place.got them to the car and they left.then it was down to me and the jokers in town and one of them got the drop on me with a submachine gun then i woke up
wnerk o wow
You dream like Lovecraft, wnerk o.
that's a fucked up dream man
Same! I walked in on the scene with the handbuzzer around the time it was released to video and had nightmares about it for days!
All this time I thought he just wiped white makeup ONTO his face for that scene
I used to think the same but once I sat down to watch a rerun and noticed something unnatural about that tone, then it hit me.
Honestly, I think they could have just done that and gotten the same effect.
that would be too easy
@@MasterMacLeod:
Actually, your suggestion seems much more practical and would´ve rendered the same effect. I believe they really over thought that one. But hey, what do we know, right? LOL!
@@sashakuznetsov6752 I mean I kind of agree with the way they went. The joker painted his face to look like normal skin so you want it to look like that. If it just looked totally natural then it wouldn't be as unsettling or authentic.
Jack Nicholson best joker and Michael Keaton best Batman 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
It's really sad that Jack Nicholson doesn't get much attention and isn't active anymore. He has a very very unique voice and character. A man like him should be there on the big screen every year. His sense of humour is incredible, and imagine him in horror movies as a serial killer.
he has probably received a lot of proposals but has rejected them because he didn't like the script or the character. given his status he can afford being super picky.
He was at the Lakers game on Friday 12 May 2023 with his son. He looks great.
He was considered at one point for a major role in Silence of the Lambs. Three guesses as to which character.
@@alecjones4676Clarice Starling 😂
He's retired.
As you can see, I'm a lot happier now.
Life’s been good to me
What if we say no?
Dylan Wharepapa-Pera Well, Tony, nobody wants a war. If we can't do business, why, we'll just shake hands and that'll be it.
@@professordimension7176 Yeah?
Dylan Wharepapa-Pera Yeah.
11 people are either ledger fans or haven't ever heard of the healing power of laughter
Michael Taylor lol
I'm a ledger fan but I respect Jack's joker cause it was the first aside from marks that I had ever witnessed and scared the piss out of me, now ironically enough I want to be cast as joker one day
.......wrong.
You can't make an omelette without breaking some eggs.
Jack was a better joker.
@SheMakeThatBackMove You are right.
Nicholsan he was in his prime time no wonder he did a phenomenal Joker
Ramiro Garcia he's also half crazy
THAT IS REQUIRED TO THE JOB NO MADNESS NO JOKER
He wasn't. He was 50.
ThanossGaming robert de niro and al pacino was also making badass movies from their 20's till 60. jack was really old at 51 or 52 when he was playing the joker but was energetic and now at 81 he won't be able to play that type of role cause now he doesn't have the energy like he did in his 20's to 60. jack is the bestest actor in history, he is exactly like the comic joker. willem dafoe and bill skarsgard or alexander skarsgard and joaquin will look like the comic joker but the sad thing is, joaquin phoenix joker looks like heath ledgers joker and a rip off movie called it starring bill skarsgard, the comic jokers do not have red nose or red paint on nose. the comic joker is like jack nickholsons joker with green spiked up hair and purple suit and white or greyish white face paint that covers his faces and ears and neck. respect goes to jack and heath
He’s been playing the role his whole life
I love Jack Nicholson’s Joker and will always be one of my favorites!
Jack is a true Hollywood Legend! He did a flawless job as the Joker!
Jack,Heath & Joaquin all three actors did a fantastic job playing the joker.
Eh, they were all mediocre at best. But if you want to see something really special, Leto's performance was the best hands down. I hope you can sense the sarcasm dripping from each word.
@@arkhambricksskylar you had me for a minute not gonna lie lol
@@arkhambricksskylar Tbf, Leto's Joker started the whole "society" meme. Gotta give him credit. That's a pretty good meme.
Jack Nicholson was the greatest Joker in all of Batman history.
He’s my favorite live action joker, but my favorite joker is mark hamill. Jack Nicholson is the best live action though for sure!
Jack is my favourite actor. But I am not agree with you. Heath ledger did the role better for sure..I like Jack's version of joker too
Im sorry but have you seen the dark knight
Unknown Me ledger was sooooo overrated purely because of his death. Jack was way better and way more geared as the joker was in the original comics
Fuck off Heath ledger is the best ur a fake fan
What I love about Nicholson’s Joker, aside from his overall performance, is how the design is near 1:1 with the source material; in particular, he’s the only live-action Joker to have a literal permanent smile, which is just expertly realised.
That’s not to criticise previous, or later, iterations but it an element of the character I really admire the team behind Batman ‘89 for incorporating… also, if anyone was going to pull it off, Jack Nicholson man (at the time) to do so.
I love hearing how Jack gets how the joker should look live action and how he really wanted to look like him.
Hat down to Jack Nicholson, and to the teem and Tim too. Respect and most of, all love them all. Epic movie, still my favourite Batman
Jack Nicholson is still one of my favorite Jokers. He did such an amazing job
🃏
I love Jack playing the Joker . I honestly think he was the best Joker. Jack is a Great Actor , even in his other movie The Shining and Wolf .
The scene at 2:10 where he goes “woooo, woop, woop” Scared me as a 4 year old! I literally hid behind my moms leg!!! Hahahahaha 🤘👽
Best joker hands down. Best actor in Hollywood too. Miss him being in movies. He was soooooo great!
I wish Jack did more interviews in his time. Absolutely fascinating performer.
One of the coolest scenes was when the Joker stood out in the open with total disregard for his own life when Batman fired twin machine guns at him from his Batplane,the Joker pulls out a revolver with a ridiculously long barrel,fires ONE shot and causes the Batplane to crash! Awesome
The new Batman movies seemed to have forgotten Batman is based off a comic book ideal, Jack's portrayal of the Joke is the best
The guy who did this makeup went on to do makeup and creature effects for all of the Harry Potter films! He also worked on Empire and Return of the Jedi and and ton of other classic films.
this is still my favorite batman movie and its because of jacks performance
The best Joker (2020) still is = Jack Nicholson period
Jim Cameron preach!!
To each their own some says it's Jack some says it's Ledger and Some says it's Mark but one thing the 99% of us agrees on is that Leto sucked ass
i agree make that from (2019)
Agreed Now let's have other Batman rogues get their screen adaptation.
Nicholson is the BEST! Number ☝️
What is it about that magical smile specifically Nicholson joker and shining movie every time I see it can’t help but smirk
His laugh is naturally maniacal and I love it.
Jack Nicholson 💋ist ein perfekter Schauspieler. Erst heute habe ich Batman, natürlich mit Jack Nicholson und den zwei Schönheiten; Kim Basinger und Jerry Hall angesehen.1989 wie die Zeit vergeht !! Wir schreiben das Jahr 2024.
It really is fascinating to hear how makeup works and how the actors work with makeup and if they can't work with this or that and then how it all comes together it's just amazing
This was the highlight of Jack Nicolson's career, his best performance 🃏
The other actors play good Jokers, but The Joker played a superb Nicholson!!!
Interestingly enough in the Movie Jack Nicolsons Joker Kills Grissom who was played by Jack Palance who was the host of the 80’s Ripley’s Belive it of Not. I always thought that if anyone else could do that show justice in future editions it would have been Jack Nicholson.
God I love jack, so creepy
TheRubberStudiosASMR oooopoooo po
Yup he creeped me out when I was four
TheRubberStudiosASMR so true!
TheRubberStudiosASMR yeah, I like his twisted sense of humor in A Few Good Men
They didn't need much make up and stuff, his grin and eyebrows are already perfect! xD
I love that nicholson of all people seemed to be the only one who read a batman comic
Why would ANYONE dislike this?
@waterside this video
Batman Was One Of Them
Why would ANYONE care if somebody thumbs up or thumbs down a video.
@@zebunker exactly
Because we live in a society maaahhrria
My favorite live action Joker... because he didn't try to use some weird voice ... just his own.
"...wait'll they get a load of me..."
Aesthetically he was the best joker. And he had that charismatic & commanding quality. His was the only one that didn’t focus primarily on the psychotic/ insane aspect of joker.
Ironically, as time goes on in holywood Joker just becomes a parody of himself; all thats left is the mania, no actually interesting quirks or qualities of his own beyond being a crazy wild guy
Nicholson made himself the best deal for this movie, he took a small paycheck for the role but gets so much % of Merchandise sold and he made far more and probably still does
The best Batman
I totally agree 👍🏻👍🏻
@IPA SOLÉ, with absolute certainty
with the best suit, the best car and the best girl
Indeed. It was enough Comic Book, but enough realism at the same time. The newer ones were too dark, and the older ones too campy.
@IPA SOLÉ no to both
My fav and Best of all Jokers
Mr. Nicholson
Still my favorite joker.. he nailed it
Jack in my opinion best Joker ever and could still recap this roll no matter how old he is
Don't forget
...your lucky deck!
My friend, your luck is about to change...
RememBAH!!! Youuu......are my number one.......UH-GUY!!!
Jack is my favorite actor of all time. I'm so glad that he played the Joker. No one else has done it better.
Nicholson is still the best live action joker as much as I like ledgers version Jack just totally captured what the joker is like In the comics
"Of all the actors to play the Joke, Jared Letto was one of them" -Stephen Colbert
-I've thought that Letto's Joker was really Knightwing
It's been done in the comics.
If that's what they were going for...
Ledger's Joker is severely overrated, and Leto's is severely underrated.
Nah
i love that Nicholson saw this as a serious character AND a comic book character
I found this Joker more creepier and that's a good thing
I was a whippersnapper when Batman came out and was hyped up tO f**k....i think it went beyond the hype and delivered PERFECTLY, best Batman.
Nicholson, the only actor who actually was the Joker.
morlvol Leger was actually the joker
No, he was nothing like the joker
@@Vis1786 u r talking about ledger or nicholsan
@@theunderground98 Ledger was nothing like the Joker of the comics, completely overrated
Mriganabh Kashyap Nicholson, ledger wasn’t the most comic book accurate but he still had the same basic goal, chaos. He wasn’t a cliche villain who just wanted to fuck the love interest like Nicholson. Though I do think he is a bit overrated, the valeska twins are the definitive live action version of the character in my eyes
I LOVE Jack Nicholson's Joker!! They both did great in Batman! Oh, he was just fantastic!! My favorite classic Batman movie, cause it gives Joker his background!! 😍👌
People don't realize this but Tim Burton was everything when it comes to fantasy style movies, everything
1:21 imagine if you saw that standing in your hallway
No disrespect to Ledger or his memory, but his Joker always felt to me like as if he was an evil villain who liked putting a Joker makeup on. Jack Nicholson to me was the Joker. From his voice, the way he spoke, his facial expressions to his acting, he would have been the ultimate Joker if the makeup department was as advanced as today or maybe his makeup a little different. Same thing with Batman. I haven't seen anyone nail it as much as Michael Keaton.
I always felt that Nicholson managed to take what Caesar Romero had built upon playing the Joker and using that as his template, took it to its logical extreme. He did on screen what Romero couldn't because the censors and writers of the time simply didn't allow for him to go all-out. But that in no way diminishes Nicholson's performance-he basically took ownership of the part and left a solid foundation for Mark Hamill to work with when that actor did the Batman Animated Series.
Totally agree. Both Jokers (as actors gave great performances). But Jack was the true 'Joker' in the sense of the character. Heath played an incredibly iconic and original character but Jack was closer to the role of the Joker.
Finally I met someone who think like me!!!
U are not the only person I've heard that. But what I've said which I get a lot of hate for, which is a bit similar to your comment on Jack. Is that Burton's Joker was perfect during his time. And Ledger was perfect for this time. But younger people my age will still say Ledger is the best not even seeing that other film. I overall think they were the perfect person for that time period. Jack portrays the classic Joker
I agree completely.
Jack Nicholson undoubtedly had the best performance and appearance, it's not even a question when one actually examines the behavioral history of the character.
"Love that joker"!😂
He steals the spotlight in everything. Even his brief scenes in Easy Rider
I don't think anybody can deny that Jack Nicholson pulled off an absolutely amazing rendition of Jack Nicholson for this movie.
A brilliant and great Joker, period but also brought to life by wonderful costume designers.
Para mí , este señor fue el mejor Guasón , le quedó muy perfecto el papel ,tenía la cara adecuada para el personaje .
Fucking great Joker. When he was being serious and his eyes were scary but his mouth was still smiling....genius
Jack - closest for comics
Ledger - craziest and realistic
Romero - funniest and hilarious
Leto - most stylished and romantic
Hamil - best voice of joker
Monaghan - jerome: most chaotic jeremiah: coldest
Phoenix - ???
Leto flat out sucked
most crazy
Leto's gimmick had potential but the actor himself just wasn't fit for it. If someone like Ryan Reynolds had that gimmick he would probably nail it.
Phoenix- Most interesting and Shakespearean/Poetic. Has the best motivation.
@@kylemcintyre4182 yeah mate he was bloody awful. Looked like a cosplay guy
For me, Keaton will always be the one true Batman, Nicholson will always be the one true Joker, and the '89 Batmobile is the only Batmobile, period. There were good moments in other Batman movies, and I left the '66 TV show out, but nothing beats the '89 movie.
Jack nicholson is the true joker
There is no true Joker.
@@SpydeyDan exactly
No
Yep. Ledger was nothing like the Joker in the comics
well said he is the true joker
"Never rub another man's rhubarb!!!"
He is still the best joker. His smile and look without make up could still play the joker.
3:10 I appreciate this guy ironing his shirt for an interview. I mean, I doubt he pulled that shirt from the bottom of his hamper or anything.
He did a great job; I actually really liked his suits and hat, they were sharp !
“This town needs an enema”
all work and no play makes jack a dull boy

The shinning 1980
The Joker and Batman, as characters, have aged well. The fact that people still debate, citing objective points, who played their roles better in the original vs. modern movies is a testament to that.
I honestly thought they just painted his face that’s all....
Oh c'mon his mouth was stretched like 6 inches dude there was no way I was believing that was his real face
@@dennydarkko I always though they attached a wire or something and actually pulled his mouth and he just enduring that pain during filming
Fun fact Rick Baker and Nick dudman did Jack Nicholson/The Joker's prosthetic make-up
Before they were starting to film this, Batman's creator Bob Kane himself said that Jack Nicholson should be casted as Joker.
*cast
Batman was created by bill finger, Bob Kane wanted to make a rip-off, bill finger came up with everything we know about the character today. So don’t give bob any credit about batman, it was all bill
Can you imagine the pressure of the makeup artist designing the Joker?
Jack’s joker still scares me after 30 years
Jack! You are the one and only Joker ever! Letcher was awesome to step into your footsteps and now we all hope Phoenix made it too.
Jack Nicolson is the best Joker in terms of the psychotic version... whereas Heath Ledger was the more narcissistic planning villian.
I dunno Ledger's was preeetty psychotic if you ask me. Also narcissistic would mean that he has an excessive interest in himself or the way he looks. I don't think that accurately describes Ledger's Joker xD
@@Beneficialitificul Joker has always been, to my understanding, a balancing act: 50% clown and 50% psycho. Nicholson came fairly close, leaning a bit more to the clownish side, whereas Ledger leaned far to the psycho side with a greatly reduced clownish side.
@@donaldwatson7698 Agreed!
Na...... Jack is better. Only Aussie say heath is better. Rest of the world don't give a damn
@@donaldwatson7698 Yes, totally.
There was little clownishness in Ledger's Joker but a whole lot of dark'.
His Joker was anarchic - which he basically says so himself, or another character says about him, in the film.
While there's at least one line in that film where someone says something to the effect of "He just wants to cause chaos"...
The effort. The time. The planning. Nowadays its literally oh we can green screen that and add some vfx later on.
