I'd pay Mark Hamill and Kevin Conroy to replicate the interrogation scene from The Dark Knight. Update: Thank you Kevin Conroy for decades of joy and entertainment as the caped crusader.
did u know the reason he licked his lips was because the prosthetics for the scar on his lip kept peeling off, so he licked it so he wouldn’t have to keep getting it re glued, and then slowly it just became apart of the character
Hammill's portrayal works because its focused on the eccentric joker in the comics. Ledgers works because all of the eccentric over the top bits were strippes away just leaving charisma and psychosis. Leto's doesn't work because they tried to combine those two things and it made the character weak as it tried to straddle to very different worlds.
TPDManiacXC626 I hear Hamil's Joker in those lines. He starts off gleeful as if he's experiencing an epiphany. Then the last line is slow dark and methodical with him showing his trademarked grin at the end
Heath made his portrayal of The Joker his own. It was great because it was different. It was more of a "if The Joker were a real person" adaptation of the him. But Hamill's voice captures the personality from the comics the best and that's the one I'll always prefer. I don't see why there has to be a rivalry between the 2. Both are perfect in their own way.
Heath Ledger did it great for making it his own. That's the only thing I loved in the Dark Knight Trilogy. I didn't like Baan Begins or The Dark Knight Rises. just The Dark Knight.
I think there hasn't been a bad Joker, all of them are great, from live action actors to voice actors, all of them have done a great job in their own version of the character.
I watched the Superman side to side with Batman every day after school as a kid. It's hard not to smile. Catwoman and Harley Quinn were my role models, not because they are criminals, but because Harley is so free and Catwoman is so self sustaining.
The current voice of the joker Troy Baker he still young n sounds almost exactly like Mark but a younger version, look up Troy Baker Joker n watch the video where he reads the killing joke monologue
SuperBabyMario0C I've seen that video, and I own Arkham Origins. And I have to say... he NAILED it as the Joker! Plus I also think he's a really talented voice actor in his other works like Sergeant Matt Baker in Brothers in Arms, Arkham City where he voices Two Face and Tim Drake/Robin and Joel in The Last of Us.
@@Taliesyn42 And that's not what the Joker is supposed to be. He doesn't kill people for fun, he kills people to show the world what a joke it is. Or is that the same thing? Maybe that is what the Joker is supposed to be and that line from the Three Jokers is another shit taken on the Joker's legacy.
Peter Parker Recycle Bin thank you.. I’m getting so sick of people saying Mark Hamill is the best in the line up with all the other people who’ve played the joker in live action movies. Doesn’t make any sense to me.
With only three words, Mark Hamill demonstrates why he was so effective as The Joker: The aggressive sharpness on the word "why", the aristocratic sound of the vowel in "so", followed by the playful and genuinely curious inflection on "serious?" encapsulate everything that makes his interpretation of The Joker so memorable. He didn't have to think about the delivery, it intuitively sprung from his deep familiarity with the character, and in a couple seconds he embodied a demented genius that takes great joy in his evil, and knows that he's probably smarter than you are. Fucking brilliant. Thank you Mark Hamill.
Now with all the isolation and how fucked up things got after the ewok party you gotta wonder if specs of madness (preferably Brand J) would show up in the new star wars saga version of mark hamill >..
Hamill helped make the Joker great. It's the great actors and storytellers that make the character great. The character alone is garbage. Think about it; a clown that kills. It's super cliche. But the people who poured their lives and careers into Batman and his villains really elevated Joker to cultural icon status.
Mark Hamill, unsurprisingly, nailed why Heath's Joker was so damn unique but so damn good. The one word he used to describe it in particular, "joyless". I never realized it but that's why he was so good. The Joker, simply by name, makes one expect someone full of joy and humor, but in the Dark Knight, while he had a sense of humor, there was no joy left in him. He was clearly just a man, as opposed to other Jokers, who seem like they aren't really part of the human species.
Mark: (provides a thoughtful, passionate, and thoroughly well-put answer to a completely botched question) Him: i was just hoping you'd say "why so serious?" Me: (facepalm) WHY DIDNT YOU JUST SAY THAT?!
Mark Hamil is the best Joker, if you only judge them by the voice. Both Niccolosons and Ledger get higher approval from me because they just acted so well, but Hamil and Conroy have, in my mind, the prestigious distinction of being the only 2 voice actors who do their role SO WELL, that they hold up to the live action versions. It amazes me that Hamil, just as an off the cuff joke, does 3 words, and sends fangasms through every person listening. Lets put it like this. Everything a casual fan associates with the Joker is Hamil's. When I asked all my friends to do a Joker laugh, all of theirs resembled the one Hamil did. The Batssss with the extreme emphasis on the s, all of the things that have become integral to the Jokers vocal identity. Also, Hamils Joker in the Arkham games has the additional distinction of a role so effectively portrayed, it is cinema quality. Hamid is and will always be my favorite Joker
Joshua Gill Mark Hamil was the best animated joker but Heath is the best live action joker and its practically impossible to say one is better than the other given that Hamil portrays the comic joker better while Heath was better at portraying the darker version of joker.
Hes a good voice actor but by far the worst person to play the Joker. So far hes the only actor to play the Joker one time before they stopped using him.
Ledger: Why so serious? Hamill: Do we look serious? (Starts laughing) Romero: (laughs with hamill) Nicholson: (laughing at completely other joke he just thought of) Baker: (smiles 'til it hurts) DiMaggio: (silent laugh and red face) Monaghan: (torn between two punchlines) Phoenix: (starts dancing) Leto: (wasn't invited)
Ledger's why so serious: *Creepy and, Terrorizing Hanill's: Comic book style Both are legends until Joaquin Phoenix joins them... And then Jare- you know what never mind...
The way Mark answered that tasteless question (considering how recent Heath's death was at that point) was SO warm, reverent and full of respect. A decent and professional man, Mr Hamill is. :)
Asking that question was very brave as the room could’ve turned on him, real hard but the minute Mark actually did “why so serious” I lost it! so good! so iconic!
Wow mad props and what a class act Hamill is. He could feel threatened by someone else's Joker but instead takes the time to praise it. That there, ladies and gentlemen, is a class act and a man confident in his work.
TPDManiacXC626 Troy Baker does an excellent job and is a damn fine voice actor in general... but I don't like his laugh as much as I do Hamill's. It's what defines the Joker in my opinion, but my opinion is just an opinion.
laz kar Very true. I wonder how sore Hamill's voice must be after talking and laughing like that for almost twenty years of acting. Still, I hope that Baker has a good run as the new Joker, he does a bang-up job that makes the Clown Prince of Crime come to life. His performance in Assault on Arkham was particularly great in my opinion.
What a classy guy and great performer?! Just gives the people what they want on the spot, that's true showmanship. Thoughtful stuff about Ledger as well. Mark Hamill just became a little cooler in my mind, which I didn't think was possible.
I wonder ehat kind of roled Mr Hamill would have taken had he not sustained an injury. It's weird that he couldn't even find roles that had few physical specifications or didn't require good looks. He's a very good actor. It's just so sad he's not in more movies.
You guys are a little harsh on the guy. I mean cmon, I know it's youtube but fuck. have some compassion. The guy was obviously very nervous. Any one of you could of messed up just like he did. Standing in front of 200+ people AND Mark Hamil, a legend in the business, isn't exactly the easiest of feats.
but he really couldn't have done worse. No one's knocking him for being nervous or fucking up, it's how badly he fucked up that people are making fun of and rightfully so. Bitch.
Among fans, there tends to be a lot of "competition" or argumentation about why someone is better than someone else. In contrast, I really loved seeing Hamill show such respect for Ledger. I, personally, found both to be tremendous, iconic performances, and I prefer to avoid arguments about who is "better".
Wow, the best animated Joker saying the lines of the best live-action Joker is something that I never thought was needed but was definitely deserved. RIP Heath Ledger, the GOAT Joker of live-action Batman films, and Kevin Conroy, the GOAT of animated Batman and the entire DCAU
omg something just hit me, it would be so hilarious and awesome at the same time if we would like get all the jokers that have been done, sitting at a table and then swap stories, in some parallel universe xD
This man, such a gold heart, such love for his fans and we love him as much. Not many people become such an iconic figure. He never imposes, always wants to know about how we find his plays, and if people knew how hard he tried to save Star Wars from the pool of shit they were headed. Should have listen to the only one Luke Skywalker, a wise master indeed. Thanks to him, the force is with us forever.
The fact that he thought about it for a second, realized it's what the fans wanted and delivered the line; just to put a smile on everyone's face, is why he's the GOAT.
I liked Hamill's and Ledger's interpretations for different reasons. Mark was amazing at producing an insane comical flirty joker, while Heath provided a serious and realistic take on the joker.
As much as I love Ledger, I am gonna call him out on the whole "original take" on the Joker because something struck me as familiar about it although I couldn't immediately place it at the time, I am really surprised no one else saw the similarity (or at least no one commented on it, if they had): I thought the rendition was highly reminiscent of the 1994 movie The Crow as played by Brandon Lee before he died. Even the LOOK of the Joker seems to be a technicolor-ized version of the Brandon Lee character .,... Anyone else see the similarity? I think Mark's Joker is more unique. I remember being SHOCKED that it was Luke Skywalker voicing him when I found out many years after the series was long gone.
Well I always felt his look was that of Brandon Lee's Crow, but his laugh was actually similar to Cesar Romero's Joker laugh. The 60s Batman comes on IFC all the time now and I was watching some of the episodes and Romero's laugh struck me as to how much Ledger sounded like him. Now the way Ledger acted was very original.
UpRoaryus he means original interpretation of joker not that the entire character is original every actor, screen writer, or director takes from others in some small way. Cinema and books have been around for so fucking long that it is nearly impossible to be trully original anymore because what ever can be imagined has mostly likely already be done. The take on the joker is what he meant by original because every joker since then has been more comedic or campy.
It never ceases to make me laugh listening to the dude struggle to say what could’ve been much simpler: “Would you please do a line from The Dark Knight with your Joker voice?”
So brilliant. Mark Hamill is THE man. (With all due respect to Mr. Ledger, who did an amazing job with an onscreen, grittier interpretation of the Joker).
Hey, Hamill himself just gave out the same love to the tragically deceased. The Lector comparison is one that never crossed my mind, but it really does fit.

If Heath Ledger were still around, Hamill and Nicholson could have a little Joker get together and stage it as a nod to the comics having 3 Jokers.
I would agree on that. But if any of them decides to retire, then invite Cameron Monaghan to the list.
Joaquin Phoenix could make this happen

Hanill's: Comic book style
Both are legends until Joaquin Phoenix joins them... And then Jare- you know what never mind...
*Hamill
Raziq Daniel Oh my bad. I accidentally typed Hanil
Cameron Monaghan also deserves to be on the list too!!!
IMO Heath Ledger's Joker is superior to all the rest as far as on screen performances go but Mark Hamill's Joker voice is the best ever!.
1:47 a great example of a nerdgasm. "YES....YESSS....YESS!!!"
That gave me chills. Mark Hamill will always be my original and favorite joker.
The way Mark answered that tasteless question (considering how recent Heath's death was at that point) was SO warm, reverent and full of respect.
A decent and professional man, Mr Hamill is. :)
...it was 3 years since his death...
Asking that question was very brave as the room could’ve turned on him, real hard but the minute Mark actually did “why so serious” I lost it! so good! so iconic!
Wow mad props and what a class act Hamill is. He could feel threatened by someone else's Joker but instead takes the time to praise it. That there, ladies and gentlemen, is a class act and a man confident in his work.
I wish they let Mark Hamill say the "Why So Serious" line in the Arkham games
I'd like to hear Troy Baker say that as his Joker.
TPDManiacXC626 Troy Baker does an excellent job and is a damn fine voice actor in general... but I don't like his laugh as much as I do Hamill's. It's what defines the Joker in my opinion, but my opinion is just an opinion.
laz kar Very much so, I just we he could imitate the perfect laugh...
laz kar Very true. I wonder how sore Hamill's voice must be after talking and laughing like that for almost twenty years of acting.
Still, I hope that Baker has a good run as the new Joker, he does a bang-up job that makes the Clown Prince of Crime come to life. His performance in Assault on Arkham was particularly great in my opinion.
laz kar I'll be looking forward to that should it ever come to fruition.
The actual video starts at 1:39
I thought it started at 0:00 but thanks bro
+John Ramirez Me too😂😂
tnx
U da real mvp
It's crazy to think that he was both Joker and Luke Skywalker. What a legend!
Mark was also others like Skips from Regular Show, Mr Block from Milo Murphy's Law, the Hobgoblin, and of course the Trickster
What a classy guy and great performer?! Just gives the people what they want on the spot, that's true showmanship. Thoughtful stuff about Ledger as well. Mark Hamill just became a little cooler in my mind, which I didn't think was possible.
I wonder ehat kind of roled Mr Hamill would have taken had he not sustained an injury. It's weird that he couldn't even find roles that had few physical specifications or didn't require good looks. He's a very good actor. It's just so sad he's not in more movies.
He’s been best joker voice and his laugh
I've always loved his ability to just switch into the voice at will, it's like he can just flip a switch
Now if only I could hear him say it instead of the crowd yelling.
Joker: "Owww...Never start with the head. The suspect can get fuzzy and wont feel anything".
Batman: ..[Crush his hand]..
Joker: "See..?"
You guys are a little harsh on the guy. I mean cmon, I know it's youtube but fuck. have some compassion. The guy was obviously very nervous. Any one of you could of messed up just like he did. Standing in front of 200+ people AND Mark Hamil, a legend in the business, isn't exactly the easiest of feats.
Besides, he's speaking to the Motherfucking Joker.
but he really couldn't have done worse. No one's knocking him for being nervous or fucking up, it's how badly he fucked up that people are making fun of and rightfully so. Bitch.
Hugo Stiglitz go sit in the corner boy. Your mommy is so dissapointed in you
Among fans, there tends to be a lot of "competition" or argumentation about why someone is better than someone else.
In contrast, I really loved seeing Hamill show such respect for Ledger. I, personally, found both to be tremendous, iconic performances, and I prefer to avoid arguments about who is "better".
Wow, the best animated Joker saying the lines of the best live-action Joker is something that I never thought was needed but was definitely deserved.
RIP Heath Ledger, the GOAT Joker of live-action Batman films, and Kevin Conroy, the GOAT of animated Batman and the entire DCAU
I'd like to hear him do the "Wanna know how I got these scars?" lines.
Love how he calls the joker voice old comic book but he invented the joker voice.
omg something just hit me, it would be so hilarious and awesome at the same time if we would like get all the jokers that have been done, sitting at a table and then swap stories, in some parallel universe xD
+Kristofer Murphy
And people didn't like him being casted before this film and he never saw his glory.
He just lived it ;)
There's already a video demonstrating that, a short animation however. Just search "Joker vs Joker debate".
Dude is the hero and the villain in so many peoples life. Star Wars and Batman have both touched millions of life’s. So has Mark Hamill
This man, such a gold heart, such love for his fans and we love him as much. Not many people become such an iconic figure. He never imposes, always wants to know about how we find his plays, and if people knew how hard he tried to save Star Wars from the pool of shit they were headed. Should have listen to the only one Luke Skywalker, a wise master indeed. Thanks to him, the force is with us forever.
I'd love to hear him say "Never rub another Man's rhubarb" in his Joker voice.
The fact that he thought about it for a second, realized it's what the fans wanted and delivered the line; just to put a smile on everyone's face, is why he's the GOAT.
I want that Mark Hamill's "Why So Serious?" as my text alert.
I was hoping for him to say "you wanna know how I got these scars!"
I wanted to hear him say," you wanna know how i got these scars?" But this is great too!
I liked Hamill's and Ledger's interpretations for different reasons. Mark was amazing at producing an insane comical flirty joker, while Heath provided a serious and realistic take on the joker.
1:40 at this point a bunch of nerds just started spazzing
Mark Hamill is the man. He's so unpretentious and down to earth
The guy asking the questions...bless his heart!
1:33 Mark Hamill's "Why so serious?" version.
Up at 2am watching almost decade old videos and trying not to wake my family. I choked trying not to burst out laughing at the end.
That guy who asked the question, he had a nerdgasm when mark did the voice. He had to leave the building and buy a new pair of pants. True story.
1:40 “Why so serious?”
That line makes me think of Raise Your Glass by Pink....
As much as I love Ledger, I am gonna call him out on the whole "original take" on the Joker because something struck me as familiar about it although I couldn't immediately place it at the time, I am really surprised no one else saw the similarity (or at least no one commented on it, if they had): I thought the rendition was highly reminiscent of the 1994 movie The Crow as played by Brandon Lee before he died. Even the LOOK of the Joker seems to be a technicolor-ized version of the Brandon Lee character .,...
Anyone else see the similarity?
I think Mark's Joker is more unique. I remember being SHOCKED that it was Luke Skywalker voicing him when I found out many years after the series was long gone.
Yeah that's why I wasn't too on board with Ledgers Joker. Not that I hated the Crow, just reminded me too much of him.
Well I always felt his look was that of Brandon Lee's Crow, but his laugh was actually similar to Cesar Romero's Joker laugh. The 60s Batman comes on IFC all the time now and I was watching some of the episodes and Romero's laugh struck me as to how much Ledger sounded like him. Now the way Ledger acted was very original.
With a bit of Malcolm McDowell from "A Clockwork Orange" thrown in.
Mac Spoon Romero set the standard for Joker laugh, every actor who wore the white mask, green hair, and red lips followed that laugh.
UpRoaryus he means original interpretation of joker not that the entire character is original every actor, screen writer, or director takes from others in some small way. Cinema and books have been around for so fucking long that it is nearly impossible to be trully original anymore because what ever can be imagined has mostly likely already be done. The take on the joker is what he meant by original because every joker since then has been more comedic or campy.
It never ceases to make me laugh listening to the dude struggle to say what could’ve been much simpler: “Would you please do a line from The Dark Knight with your Joker voice?”
Someone make Hamill read the phonebook from A to Z in his joker voice.
***** His voice would give out while still reading the Aa section..
DEATHBYFLYINGCDS I want him to do a sat nav
We need more Mark Hamil in our lives please. He is literally a national treasure by this point.
YESSSS!!!! Totally agree!!!
"How would you inTERpreTAte Heath Ledger's lines?"
Wow this guy's nervous
Hamil such a gentleman giving props to the other Joker actors. Props.
So brilliant. Mark Hamill is THE man. (With all due respect to Mr. Ledger, who did an amazing job with an onscreen, grittier interpretation of the Joker).
Hey, Hamill himself just gave out the same love to the tragically deceased. The Lector comparison is one that never crossed my mind, but it really does fit.
Heaths Joker is arguably the best in cinema, but Matt Hamil is my favourite Joker voice. Especially in the Arkham Games. Beautifully done.
I saw the Dark Knight 3 times in the theaters just to see Heaths performance as the Joker.
RIP
Now I want to see Mark do the whole Orson Welles "Yes, Always!" bit as the Joker.
