Cesar was the clown Jack was the gangster Heath was the anarchist Jared was the deranged Joaquin was the traumatized Mark was the voice... All different takes to a very complex character. They all add to the levels of who Joker is.
I was skeptical about Heath Ledger's Joker at first until someone explained to me the kind of direction they were going with the film. Just when I started thinking of how wrong I was is when news of his passing came up. But his role of Skip in Lords Of Dogtown is what really won me over along with The Brothers Grimm. I went to see his last film Imaginarium Of Doctor Parnassus in theaters as well. Truly a legend that could have outdone himself several times over.
Same here. When I first heard he was cast, I was disappointed. That pretty boy from Brokeback Mountain? But then I saw the movie and DAMN, he sure proved us all wrong. That guy put a whole new spin on the Joker we never thought possible.
Even for a re-upload, this still kicks ass! Thank you Minty I like hearing about Heath Ledger's performances. With out a doubt heaven is well entertained! 😇
I remember going to the theater to see this. Was a bit skeptical about Heath Ledger as the Joker, since Batman is my absolute favorite of all time. Walked out raving, and singing his praises. Even tried to find a poster of the scene where he's sitting in the solitary cell when he begins to clap. Hands down, best Joker EVER.
There’s a single frame in The Killing Joke wherein the Joker looks just like Tom Waits, and that always stuck in the back of my head. So I found it very gratifying to discover that Tom was actually one of Heath’s inspirations.
I was cast in a small part in Heath’s last movie, “Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus” which also featured Tom. It was surreal to hear Heath died while I was in wardrobe.
Batman Begins (2005) and Superman Returns (2006) should’ve led to Batman v Superman. Christian Bale and Brandon Routh were the perfect age to build the DCU for the next 2 decades.
My dude!!!!! This is the Movie I've been waiting for!!!!! Absolutely love this movie my absolute Favorite Batman movie ever!!!! Heath Ledgers Joker is amazing!!!!! The Best Joker ever!!!! Keep up the great work 👍
Yep, there is no other Joker. With all these woke-puke franchise-destroying abominations, it's time to make Woke-Lefty's pics on the back of Milk-Cartons.........FUNNY AGAIN!! 😆😂🤣
@@edkeaton hia amazing first movie with a 19 year d Rose Byrne that got him the job In 10 things I hate about you The insight into 90s/2000s Australia The gets better with age crime classic TWO - HANDS (1999)
While a good performance the only reason he won an Oscar and is remembered as a phenomenal performance is because he died. PERIOD until then NO ONE was saying it was best ever, which is Jack Nicholson, or Oscar worthy.
Ledger was completely legendary in his performance and u can tell it's him some of the time but other times it was like the joker was real and it made the dark knight surreal best comic movie since batman 89 and the best comic book movie since still can't be matched
MINTY! I love your videos. May I make two suggestions. First a movie recommendation, Only Lovers Left Alive. A great modern take on the vampire movie starring Tilda Swinton and Tom Hiddleston and the late Anton Yeltin. This movie is dripping with atmosphere and a hypnotizing soundtrack. Second, you should start doing video game 10 Things You Didn't Know, for example Super Mario Brothers.
All time favourite Joker! I remember bursting out in tears when I heard about Heath Ledger's death. This had never happened to me before upon the death of an actor. The fact that he and I were born in the same year also contributed to this reaction from me.
9:09 I like the original concept design of The Joker in the 2008’s The Dark Knight better because it’s so disturbing and can actually tell how creepy the villain is. But I can understand, they went to the final design, which it is still creepy, but less disturbing. I think the main reason is sell toys. Which I can understand.
Trust me, "Rory's last kiss," fooled absolutely no one. The summer of filming Aaron Eckhart skateboarded around Chicago, and loved hitting dive bars. It was the summer of Chicago. Public Enemies was also filming. 👌🏿
Yes Definitely A Good & Classic Movie!! Heath Ledger did a Really good Job, he Pulled it off!! He will be Missed! Good job Mr. Minty!! Keep Going Strong!! 🤑
Heath Ledger did an awesome job - but I mostly remember the guy in 10 Things I Hate About You, and the scene where he is singing Can't Take My Eyes Off of You...😁🤣
👏👍 Thanks Minty! As I’d said many times; ‘ Could you ever think Without the Final Cast Picks - it could be any better or as perfect’!?! They can WRITE the Characters, but not replace the Perfect & Incredible Actors/ Actresses! God Bless. 👴🏼NoBody. And LEDGER??? 🏆🏆🏆
I have heard through interviews that playing a "serious" Joker can drive you nuts after a while. Even Jack Nicholson said that he had to take a break after the role.
I always thought thought Heath licking his lips all the time was intentional. After all Jokers mouth was cut and most likely damaged his salvatary glands thus causing drooling. So the constant licking would make sense. I guess it was just accidental perfection.
And here I was, thinking the lip licking thing was a genius little quirk that He he threw in to make him seem more twitchy and neurotic. Lol. I remember when Brad Pitt did a similar thing for his character of Early Grace in Kalifornia (1993). I love those little touches.
The more I think about this movie the more I've come to realize Batman totally failed his mission. He gave up for eight years, and then ONLY came back later for one day just to fight Bane, who wouldn't have even been there if Batman truly saved Gotham in the first place.
I like that it genuinely feels more like a crime thriller movie with big action scenes. I also like that the comic book villains were seen somewhat realistically with that twisted pulpy edge of comic books.
I met the woman who would soon be my wife, on our first date, going to see this movie. We have been together ever since. This movie, was by far, one of my favorites. Outstanding job, by HEATH LEDGER.
While the Movie is Good and Ledger was an Amazing Joker, to me it’s not the Masterpiece that other say it it, I just think it’s Underrated with a Few Flaws.
Minty! Do The Chase with Charlie Sheen and Kristy Swanson! Grew up watching this over and over again on HBO as a kid! And I always wanted to get that red BMW!
There have been great Jokers, but I've only ever seen Heath Ledger's Joker in reproductions of paintings in the Istanbul bazaars. Also T-shirts, posters and tattoos worldwide. The People speak!
According to action movie star and Dark Knight and co-star Michael Jai White Heath Ledger did not go crazy he was happy to go lucky on set until they said get ready for action then you would see him wander off by himself Mumble a few Joker esk things to himself and then when the camera went action he went into Joker there was nothing wrong with his Ledger other than a mixture of unfortunate medications and depression The Joker did not kill Heath Ledger
Couldn't agree more. It was an amazing performance. When people said to me, he couldn't get out of character. I always said you do realize, behind the camera is like 70 people at all times. He knew he was filming a movie.
Christmas is coming up. This will be a perfect time to do a 10 things. You don’t know about Dr. Seuss how the Grinch stole Christmas live action Jim Carrey version.
Kind of thought he was going to mention that Bruce Wayne's Lambo was the model called "Murcielago" which is the Spanish word for Bat. Even his civilian car was a Batmobile. So, much for being subtle.
Isn't this a re-upload video? I could swear seeing it before....or maybe it is my mistake. Still a great video, and an amazing video, congratulations Minty 👍👍👍🥇🎖🥳🎅☃️🏅🥇🎄❄🏆👏🤗
When the hotel maid found Heath, it got reported that either she or the hotel mgr immediately called one of the Olsen twins. Maybe she was dating Heath? I also remember people saying she was responsible for getting his drugs.
The lip licking was also a subtle hint from Ledger that The Joker was possibly a heroin addict at one point. Former junkies are known for doing similar behaviors because their mouths are endlessly dry.
I think this movie did well because Ledger's death. I am not a new batman guy but he did a great job playing the Joker. Thanks Minty keep up the great work
We are newer subscribers (my boyfriend and I) and love Minty! We have recently gone into watching all the Batman movies in order (since 89, although we might go back around for the earlier ones) and so we will watch the corresponding Minty video for each movie after we watched it. Can anyone tell us what happened to the Minty video for the Dark Knight Rises, if there was one? Much appreciated ♥️
I heard a rumour that Holmes also did not come back because on the first film, rumour is Tom Cruise, Katie's husband at the time,. kept calling and making demands on Holmes' behalf.
Cesar was the clown
Jack was the gangster
Heath was the anarchist
Jared was the deranged
Joaquin was the traumatized
Mark was the voice...
All different takes to a very complex character. They all add to the levels of who Joker is.
So well said
Nailed it
what was Cameron Monagan (joker from Gotham)
Amen
You just had to do it.

Yes I remember the time well, arm chair critics completely tore the whole film concept apart
Brothers Grimm gave me nightmares as a kid lol
This is an iconic movie…
Absolutel masterpiece
Even for a re-upload, this still kicks ass! Thank you Minty I like hearing about Heath Ledger's performances. With out a doubt heaven is well entertained! 😇
Minty's Just Been Lookin' For an Excuse to Wear That Shirt! 😜
Crazy. Just watched this again last night and here it is. Still one of the greatest superhero films ever.
I remember going to the theater to see this. Was a bit skeptical about Heath Ledger as the Joker, since Batman is my absolute favorite of all time. Walked out raving, and singing his praises. Even tried to find a poster of the scene where he's sitting in the solitary cell when he begins to clap. Hands down, best Joker EVER.
Damn that poster sounds great. A friend of mine had got gifted 2 canvas painting of movie posters when they came out, one joker one batman. Lucky guy
@@bovinejoannie9429 incredibly lucky!! Jealous! Lol. But, that's awesome. Man, those have to be amazing.
Me too, when I read on the internet in 2007 that Heath Ledger was gonna be the Joker in the new Batman movie I seriously thought it was a joke
@@ErinBujalski did you see “The Batman” with Robert Pattinson?

Yeah, instead of Ben Affleck as Batman and Henry Cavill as Superman
Heath Ledger's finest peformance.
EASILY.
Why so serious and am going to make this pencil ✏️ disappear it’s gone rip Heath ledger you great man 👨 and actor miss you
He easily stole the show
An absolute masterpiece. Heath Leger was a genius. This role earned him his final Academy Award.
Final? You make it sound like he won many oscars ehere je has only rver won the one for the one time which he of course won!
My dude!!!!! This is the Movie I've been waiting for!!!!! Absolutely love this movie my absolute Favorite Batman movie ever!!!! Heath Ledgers Joker is amazing!!!!! The Best Joker ever!!!! Keep up the great work 👍
Correction. Best Joker so far. Going to be hard to beat though.
I couldn’t imagine another world where someone else played the joker in this movie
My man Minty loves to please his fans.Thank you Minty for doing what you do best.🙏
There will NEVER be a better Joker ever again. This was the finest performance our eyes will ever see again.
Wrong.
Yep, there is no other Joker.
With all these woke-puke franchise-destroying abominations, it's time to make Woke-Lefty's pics on the back of Milk-Cartons.........FUNNY AGAIN!! 😆😂🤣
@@jimver2145 no its facts

Heath Ledger's performance as the Joker was phenomenal and his Oscar win was well deserved! 😎✌️
I did like knights tale.

Lots of greatness in this ...be blessed and all in Jesus shalom
The United States Library of Congress selected it for preservation in the National Film Registry in 2020.
Its always a good day when you upload a new video!
MASTERPIECE!!! The Dark Knight is 10 out of 10!!!
AGREED.
R.I.P. Heath Ledger.
You are the best. Best voice, Best toy and t- shirt collection and best taste in movies. Thx for still being here and your amazing videos. 🥰🙏
Wow! The licking was not a acting choice but a makeup problem? I was so convinced it was the character.
Alright Minty let’s see if you get me on one of these. I’ve seen them all, and I’m rooting for you!!
Ledger is also fantastic in A Knight's Tale
Ledger was completely legendary in his performance and u can tell it's him some of the time but other times it was like the joker was real and it made the dark knight surreal best comic movie since batman 89 and the best comic book movie since still can't be matched
Rest in peace heath ledger. The best joker.
Think you are.miasing the word "peace"
@@archstanton6102 thanks. Look at the correction.
@@archstanton6102 yeh heath got twken from the world too soon
Christian Bale at his pinnacle of hotness, and I absolutely adore Gary Oldman in this. Such a great movie.
I heard that Gary Oldman was retiring from acting 😳🫤
@UCjyY8t6LkqxT7Ce3nmPMmjg yeah, the current series he’s doing right now is his last work as an actor
Great video,2008 was an awesome year being done with highschool,start college in fall and Dark Knight awesome movie.
Well done Minty nice to make this one Heath Ledger was amazing in this
That sweater! Love it!
Ledger was amazing. RIP.
Good one, Minty.
For me, Heath Ledger will always be Willam Thatcher in 2001 "A Knight's Tale." Thanks to Minty for posting.....
WILLIAAAAAAM!!!!!
@@SlashGriever The casting in A Knight's Tail was great.

The opening scene of this movie blew me away so much that I forgot it was a Batman movie. So absolutely brilliant.
Minty. Keep up the great work 👍Your videos are great ❤
Where did you get that hoodie? I love it
it now sits at 50th highest grossing film
This is the earliest I've seen episode of this published "Hi Minty" 👋 😊
9:09 I like the original concept design of The Joker in the 2008’s The Dark Knight better because it’s so disturbing and can actually tell how creepy the villain is. But I can understand, they went to the final design, which it is still creepy, but less disturbing. I think the main reason is sell toys. Which I can understand.
9:16 Plus the design of the Joker on the right, would have personally given me some nightmares after seeing this.
Trust me, "Rory's last kiss," fooled absolutely no one. The summer of filming Aaron Eckhart skateboarded around Chicago, and loved hitting dive bars. It was the summer of Chicago. Public Enemies was also filming. 👌🏿
There were "Gotham City Police" cars all over the damn place lol.
No one in Chicago was fooled. 😂.
Great video as usual Minty! I miss Heath Ledger.
The moment that I saw The Patriot in the movie theater when Ledger drinks the ink, I knew that he should be The Joker....
Yes Definitely A Good & Classic Movie!! Heath Ledger did a Really good Job, he Pulled it off!! He will be Missed! Good job Mr. Minty!!
Keep Going Strong!! 🤑
Heath Ledger did an awesome job - but I mostly remember the guy in 10 Things I Hate About You, and the scene where he is singing Can't Take My Eyes Off of You...😁🤣

still a great video minty!
All your vides are well done. Any chance you might do one on Man of Steel?
Awesome work bro
Fun Fact, Aaron Eckhart filmed all his two face scenes twice. Once to focus on Harvey's emotions a d the second for the burnt half
It's hard to not know all these facts since the movie had been discussed so much
Best Alfred of all the movies & that's really saying something
There have been great Jokers, but I've only ever seen Heath Ledger's Joker in reproductions of paintings in the Istanbul bazaars. Also T-shirts, posters and tattoos worldwide. The People speak!
I saw the trailer on UA-cam back when that’s where you just came across stuff and I had no doubt this joker was gonna be awesome.
The dark knight 😍 is a rare sequel that is good 👍 😅😊 and i love it 😀
Best comic book movie of all time 10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Do a batman animated series in honor of kevin conroy.
Good idea 👍
He just needs to do Batman animated series anyway. He’s done the TMNT animated series, so he should the Batman animated tv show too
River 'Tems', m'boy - it's not pronounced 'Taimes.' 😘 Great channel Minty. Happy '23
Have you done 1993 Airborne review?
Thank you for the Glasgow Smile reference. If you're Glaswegian, you know...
The lip licking was also a subtle hint from Ledger that The Joker was possibly a heroin addict at one point. Former junkies are known for doing similar behaviors because their mouths are endlessly dry.
8:20 If they clear it with Ledger's family, they have to sell that book in wide print.
It's well documented by other cast members that he didn't go mad playing the role.
The day Heath died, I got really sick. It felt unreal. I thought of the talent that was lost and his daughter was so little.
I think this movie did well because Ledger's death. I am not a new batman guy but he did a great job playing the Joker. Thanks Minty keep up the great work

Tom Cruise sees Christian Bale standing on the edge of a tall building and asks, "Is that all you got?"
I heard a rumour that Holmes also did not come back because on the first film, rumour is Tom Cruise, Katie's husband at the time,. kept calling and making demands on Holmes' behalf.
as much as i liked heath, i would've also loved to see what a robin williams joker would've looked like
the only reason Robin Williams even came into the picture was because they used him as a “tease” to get Jack Nicholson to accept the part
Good day Mr. Minty
Could you consider doing the Movie Legend with Tim Curry ? Please 🙏
