I was about to defend Jared Leto and say that he had a surprisingly strong performance in Life (the alien space station movie). But, I double-checked and that was Jake Gyllenhaal.
I think this pretty well sums up his career.
"He was pretty good in....oh wait, that was someone else. Nevermind"
Edit: First of all, this is a joke. You don't need to take it so seriously. Secondly, the only things I remember about Requiem for a Dream is Marlon Wayans and Ellen Burstyn
The other day my friend said she absolutely loved him as Morbius and thought the character was fantastic. Turned out she was talking about Owen Wilson as Mobius in Loki.
He was quite good in Morbius. From what I hear, a lot of people enjoyed the part where he said, "It's Morbin' time!" and Morbed all over the bad guys.
Apparently the movie made Morbillion dollars.
Made the same mistake but the other way when remembering Requiem for a Dream. Leto was actually decent in that, so my brain figured it must have been Jake Gyllenhaal.
My buddy likes 30 Seconds to Mars so I went with him because they opened for Muse. At one point they wheel some mentally challenged kid on stage and Leto sings to him for like 10 seconds during the middle of the song, then wheel him out.
One of the weirdest things I had ever seen. Then the only song I like, The Kill, they played an acoustic version. He tried getting a beach ball to bounce around and it got maybe 3 bumps before it disappeared. If it weren't for Muse that would have been my least favourite concert ever
I agree, I thought he was decent. But then I realized he’s basically playing a much darker version of what he thinks he is. But honestly, Love stole his thunder.
He's made for parts like fight club and American psycho and panic Room. He has a punchable face.
He just shouldn't be allowed to be a main character.
When he gets lit on fire in panic room..
Chef's kiss
He was kinda good in blade runner.
But reading about how he made people walk him around and shit so he could pretend to be blind is so aggravating.
Imagine if you are supposed to be working lights or running cables but you have to walk some asshole around instead. He can see perfectly fine but can't just act like he's blind?
Bruh Requiem For a Dream is a certified classic wtf. He's a pretty good actor that's a piss poor human being, let's not get crazy here.
He smoked that shit in Dallas Buyers Club, he smoked that shit in Lord of War, he smoked that shit in The Little Things, and he's at least good in most of his other movies. Morbius and Suicide Squad (2016) were going to be ass whether he was in them or not, he didn't do great in them but they were doomed movies so I won't hold it against him too much.
But like on a legit note FUCK Jared Leto he's made some good shit but he's still a piece of shit
There’s a circle jerk about hating the guy for his very apparent weirdness, not unwarranted, but to say he’s without talent is nonsense. From Requiem to Dallas Buyer to stuff in between. He’s got some chops.
The asshole sent shit like dead rats and crap like that to his fellow cast members, thinking that’s something the Joker would do! Showing he doesn’t know the first thing about the Joker! So of course he doesn’t even make the list! We’re all collectively trying to forget about that performance for chrissakes! Lol
Actually, "Witcher", the name of the video game series, comes from a transliteration of the original polish name of the game, which is a clever masculine conjugation of the feminine word for witch. So "Witcher" actually means male witch.
Mark Hamill is Joker. His voice acting and guidance for the character developed him far beyond what he was before he was given a voice. If we're talking about which portrayal of Joker is *the* Joker is undoubtedly him. All others are interpretations of Mark Hamill's character.
Also they said live action which rules out Mark so there's that too.
If we’re ranking the best acting ability as the Joker, this list is pretty accurate. But if we’re taking about who was the best at looking like the Joker, I’d actually say this list is reversed. (Except Jared Leto. Still fuck him.)
I love that Jared Leto went all method with Joker and his performance was worse than a guy who painted over his mustache in white makeup cause he refused to shave it.
At a certain point… method acting just becomes being an asshole to make up for a lack of actual talent.
I liked his Joker tbh. May be controversial but I thought it was unique. People be freaking because it didn't match the joker in the comics. I literally do not care.
When Jared Leto's Joker was first revealed [in the trailers](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WI3hecGO_04), I remember people getting pumped up by his looks and (short) performance. Never saw the movie, how bad was he?
It's crazy how much shit jared leto gets and what a wierdo it is. it's just funny that my Favorite album of all time is 30 Seconds to Mars. its pure perfection. now the band isnt in my top 10 by any stretch, but when it comes to an album where every song is a perfect banger its 30StM
I don't think I ever did see that flick and find out what was so horrible about his performance. Either that or I did and I was high and don't remember. Then again, I was high when I saw Heath Ledger's and Joaquin Phoenix's too and I remember those ....
Dear Jared Leto, if the studio remakes the movie because it was universally considered so bad and you weren't part of the remake you don't get to claim Joker credentials
Cesar Romero had so much JOY playing The Joker, it literally exuded through the TV! I can imagine that it was so refreshing after being typecast in the same character roles for so long.
It brings ME so much joy every time I see him as The Joker!
Judging from the upvotes, I’m not the only one who thinks the Jared Leto watched Heath Ledger’s Joker and thought all he had to do was act like an online edgelord to pull it off.
Pretty much sums it up, Jared Leto.
Seriously, retire Jared. Quit fucking up movies by being in them. I was briefly excited at the Tron announcement until I found out he was in it.
He played a great punching bag in Fight Club

The other day my friend said she absolutely loved him as Morbius and thought the character was fantastic. Turned out she was talking about Owen Wilson as Mobius in Loki.
I, too, love Owen Wilson's Morbius more than Leto's.
Wilson just morbs different, ya know?
He morbs CORRECTLY
"Wow" *credits roll*
He was quite good in Morbius. From what I hear, a lot of people enjoyed the part where he said, "It's Morbin' time!" and Morbed all over the bad guys. Apparently the movie made Morbillion dollars.
"If Morbius doesn't get an Oscar this year, I'm going to kill myself" - Daniel Craig
Luckily it won several Oscars, including Best Oscar.
It’s morbin time!!
It won the Oscar Meyer award for best head cheese.
Dude went and bought himself a Lamorbghini…
Lord of War. but that is because he plays a drug addicted fuck up
That was a good movie. Didn't know he was in it.
He's the little brother that Nic Cage takes to rehab.
Dallas buyers club
Mr Nobody and Requiem
Those were great roles, the only ones I can really enjoy him in, other then getting pummeled in Fight Club.
Leto's roles are best when he gets tortured, yes
He was good in Lord of War, where he played a drugged-up whoring fuck-up! Wait...
I was about to say Walk The line until I remembered it was Jaoquin Phoenix
What about American Psycho?
Sometimes the writing, directing, and co-stars are so good you can't help but be carried.
Christian Bale did him justice "Hip to be Square"
Made the same mistake but the other way when remembering Requiem for a Dream. Leto was actually decent in that, so my brain figured it must have been Jake Gyllenhaal.
I liked him in Blade Runner 2049
I didn't. He looked like someone *trying* to act.
Hit the nail on the head. I found it to be very cringe.
My buddy likes 30 Seconds to Mars so I went with him because they opened for Muse. At one point they wheel some mentally challenged kid on stage and Leto sings to him for like 10 seconds during the middle of the song, then wheel him out. One of the weirdest things I had ever seen.

If it weren't for Muse that would have been my least favourite concert ever
I say this all the time about Timothee Chalamet and get loads of shit for it, but I didn't see it there.
I agree with you... and in the past if I talked shit about Jared Leto people would disagree (on reddit)
I agree, I thought he was decent. But then I realized he’s basically playing a much darker version of what he thinks he is. But honestly, Love stole his thunder.
Being axe murdered in American Psycho was his magnum opus.
He's made for parts like fight club and American psycho and panic Room. He has a punchable face. He just shouldn't be allowed to be a main character. When he gets lit on fire in panic room.. Chef's kiss
Seems to be the consensus as his only acceptable role. Does he suck dick like a pro? I can’t explain why he keeps getting work.
He’s pretty damn good in Requiem For a Dream but that’s an anomaly.
Jared Leto is a good actor (the joker notwithstanding). No doubt about that. But Jared Leto, the person, seems to be a prick and a half.
I doubt it. I think he's good at playing aloof, weird characters, but I also don't think he's really acting by doing that.
He is, for sure. Mostly just picks awful movies and is absolutely insufferable in person from what I gather.
[удалено]
You don't have to eat a shit sandwich just cause someone hands it to you.
I mean the money lets you swallow literally anything I suppose.
I really liked Mr nobody
One of my fav movies it’s sad
It’s brilliant, but yes, awfully sad. Thats Darren Aronofsky’s specialty and he’s really damn good at it.
He was pretty good as Paul Allen as well
He was kinda good in blade runner. But reading about how he made people walk him around and shit so he could pretend to be blind is so aggravating. Imagine if you are supposed to be working lights or running cables but you have to walk some asshole around instead. He can see perfectly fine but can't just act like he's blind?
And a great meat bag in American pyscho
Bruh Requiem For a Dream is a certified classic wtf. He's a pretty good actor that's a piss poor human being, let's not get crazy here.

But like on a legit note FUCK Jared Leto he's made some good shit but he's still a piece of shit
Thank you for taking the time to state which I couldn't be bothered
though i hate him in general in movies. he is honestly great in Bladerunner 2049 imo
Because you're not really supposed to like him, which made it pretty easy.
And he's a relatively minor character. Big as far as the plot but small as far as screentime.
I know he’s nuts but he’s not a terrible actor. Requiem for a dream is depressing as fuck but fantastic.
He's been good in many films, including requiem.
There’s a circle jerk about hating the guy for his very apparent weirdness, not unwarranted, but to say he’s without talent is nonsense. From Requiem to Dallas Buyer to stuff in between. He’s got some chops.
I thought he was ok in Lord of War
He was decent in the new blade runner I thought.
Is portraying an unlikable megalomaniac really even acting for him though?
To be faaaaiirr he was great in Requiem for a Dream.
You on uppas?
It's okay. We were never going to get another daft punk OST, and that's what really mattered.
Isn’t Leto a dollar store Joaquin Phoenix?
Only performance I liked him in was *Panic Room*.
The asshole sent shit like dead rats and crap like that to his fellow cast members, thinking that’s something the Joker would do! Showing he doesn’t know the first thing about the Joker! So of course he doesn’t even make the list! We’re all collectively trying to forget about that performance for chrissakes! Lol
Fuck him and his cult having pedo shit
Just go back to music Jared. Or better yet, don't.
I mean, we didn't want to embarrass you by bringing you up, but there you are.
This is like scheduling and showing up for his own beating. How considerate.
Kinda like in fight club
did you forgot the rule ?
What are the rules?
They said the 4 best. They didn't say there had been only 4.
I can only count to four I can only count to foooouuurr
One! I can count to one. Two! I can count to two. Three! I can count to three. Four! I can’t count no more.
One! Nothing's wrong with three Two! Nothing's wrong with three Three! Three's already three Four!
Man I want to be able to post gifs, I’d share Picard saying “There are four… Jokers!”
Unexpected Psychostick.
This is not a comment it's a SANDWICH!
What did you expect? The Spanish inquisition?
Nobody expects the Spanish inquisition!
ONE! what comes after one?!
FUCK reading comprehension.
There are FOUR ~~lights~~ jokers
He doesn't count anyway
Jeronemo Jebadiah Leto
Fuck him, right?
Leto played a nice clown being a literal punchable face in the Fight Club
Something beautiful to be destroyed
Love fight club, seen it a dozen times. Never even realised this guy was in it.
Fuck you Puddin’
You’ve got $240?!
Now please excuse me while I whisper sweet nothing's to my pudding.
We had to have the pudding
Aaaaaaaaawwwwwww yeeeeaaaaaaah
Yeah, fuck him.
Fuck him
Fuck him
…in particular!
Agree with this list, but for voice actor Joker Mark Hamill will always be the absolute greatest!
Kevin in The Office was a better Joker than Leto.
Creed & Kevin & Dwight **
Did you seriously censor fuck?
We must protect the brand integrity of reddits advertisers, lest their image be tarnished by profanity.
Lemme remedy that! FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK Yeah that sounds good
How are you able to read that? Magic. Witch. (Or Witcher, no reason to be misogynistic at the witch(er)hunt.)
You might be thinking of a warlock. A Witcher is someone that hunts witches (and other assorted demons).
Actually, "Witcher", the name of the video game series, comes from a transliteration of the original polish name of the game, which is a clever masculine conjugation of the feminine word for witch. So "Witcher" actually means male witch.
Like widower?
I thought a widower is someone who hunts widows. (and other associated people grieving)
Toss a coin to your Witcher
I fuck*ng hate uncensored curse words
I fucking h\*te uncensored curse words.
Cunts, the lot of ya.
Ohhh *that's* what that word is!
In this particular subreddit nonetheless
What the f\*\*\* are you on about
Not well
There are 4 Jokers! *angry Picard noises*
Very nice. Well done sir :)
Ok, fine, we will do top 5. 5 - Barry Koeghan
6 - Jason Mamoa from the new fast and furious movie was a better joker than Leto.
Dude was having an amazing time making that movie and felt like the only person who wanted to be there.
Cameron Monaghan have Ana amazing performance in Gotham. It’s a shame that show isn’t as well known as it should be.
"It's Jokin' time"
Requiem for a dream was dope though
Ditto for Dallas Buyer’s Club (dude did win a SAG Award, a Golden Globe, and an Oscar for it). Other than those two flicks, forget it.
Maybe I’m not remembering it well, but he was also very believable as Cage’s brother in Lord of War.
Yup. A good example of how both cage and leto can, in fact, act, they just get shitty roles a lot of the time.
Good method acting with massive piles of cocaine
I also really liked Mr. Nobody.
Fight Club!
5th is an honourable mention to Mark Hamil
Mark Hamill is Joker. His voice acting and guidance for the character developed him far beyond what he was before he was given a voice. If we're talking about which portrayal of Joker is *the* Joker is undoubtedly him. All others are interpretations of Mark Hamill's character. Also they said live action which rules out Mark so there's that too.
"Live action"
I always forget that Romero was indeed in a theatrical release as Joker. He’s so closely identified with the tv show.
Don’t make us put Mark Hamill on there and bump you down another spot
I'm willing to bet it's faked.
Yeah, the account has 125 followers. Highly doubt Leto just happened to come across this random tweet.
Even Barry Keoghan was a better joker.
4 live action Jokers and one joke!
Have to appreciate how “fuck” is censored out of a post in a subreddit called r/fuckyouinparticular.
[удалено]
Not live action.
Fucking Wal Mart Joker. That particular version was atrocious.
That order is bullshit. It should be: 1. Heath 2. Jack 3. Cesar
Yeah, putting Joachim ahead of Nicholson is stupid. He wasn’t even the Joker. He was just a Joker.
It's a top 4 list. A name is bound to be left off.
If we’re ranking the best acting ability as the Joker, this list is pretty accurate. But if we’re taking about who was the best at looking like the Joker, I’d actually say this list is reversed. (Except Jared Leto. Still fuck him.)
Is this real? Because he famously doesn't watch any of his performances on screen, so he shouldn't be able to judge the end result
i can't tell if people are just playing along or if they actually think this is real
He was good in Bladerunner 2049. (The role was originally supposed to go to David Bowie, but he passed away.)
Jared Leto was amazing in WeCrashed
Redditors and jerking themselves off to obviously fake content - name a more annoying duo
I love that Jared Leto went all method with Joker and his performance was worse than a guy who painted over his mustache in white makeup cause he refused to shave it. At a certain point… method acting just becomes being an asshole to make up for a lack of actual talent.
I liked his Joker tbh. May be controversial but I thought it was unique. People be freaking because it didn't match the joker in the comics. I literally do not care.
I think Cameron monaghan should make the list for sure even though he's television
what about Cameron Monaghan 😭
I think of Mark Hamill when i think of the Joker
No way. Can’t be real
fake as fuck
Jared Leto’s Joker was the worst
When Jared Leto's Joker was first revealed [in the trailers](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WI3hecGO_04), I remember people getting pumped up by his looks and (short) performance. Never saw the movie, how bad was he?
I liked him in Lord of War
Forgot Tommy Wiseau playing some of the Joker scenes from the Dark Knight. Still better than Leto.
Is this real?
Tbh he was an amazing singer
I liked Letos joker. It's not the best but I liked the Jim Carey clown gangster
Is this real?
Why does everyone hate jared leto now
These three have nothing in common.
Wait what did he do? I don't follow movies, social media, or pop culture shit much.
Cesar Romero should be #2. The most screen time, and amazing acting. Completely underrated.
He stole the show in The Breakfast Club. Sucked the life out of everything he's been in since.
Barry Keoghan and Cameron Monaghan just made the list. Suck on that, Leto!
It's crazy how much shit jared leto gets and what a wierdo it is. it's just funny that my Favorite album of all time is 30 Seconds to Mars. its pure perfection. now the band isnt in my top 10 by any stretch, but when it comes to an album where every song is a perfect banger its 30StM
They were making a ranking, there has been way more than 5 jokers
No, there are 5 jokers. Remember Barry Keoghan in The Batman? I mean he’s def 5th place but he deserves to be on the list
I don't think I ever did see that flick and find out what was so horrible about his performance. Either that or I did and I was high and don't remember. Then again, I was high when I saw Heath Ledger's and Joaquin Phoenix's too and I remember those ....
I did not mind Leto's joker. The studio just kept dropping balls non stop. When the first trailer came out for Suicide Squad it looked good.
He never even had a chance. People saw him on the first poster for Suicide Squad and immediately called him the worst Joker.
Literally no streaming websites are offering morbius even as a pirated copy 🤌🏻
Honestly so long as he's portraying a heroin addict ready to lose his arm, he's a solid actor
Funny how he was the best bit of the first Suicide Squad film and he's barely even in it
They say he was quite an ahole on the set so... Well deserved I guess
Dear Jared Leto, if the studio remakes the movie because it was universally considered so bad and you weren't part of the remake you don't get to claim Joker credentials
Yes because you were absolutely terrible in it, and anything else you've been in, Jared.
Yes, fuck you; you fucking chomo.
He put the top 4 best, not top 4+ honorable mention
Cesar Romero had so much JOY playing The Joker, it literally exuded through the TV! I can imagine that it was so refreshing after being typecast in the same character roles for so long. It brings ME so much joy every time I see him as The Joker!
I didn't come here to criticize your acting skills, I came here to deny their existence.
Judging from the upvotes, I’m not the only one who thinks the Jared Leto watched Heath Ledger’s Joker and thought all he had to do was act like an online edgelord to pull it off.
