Oooh -- yeah, Crispin Glover could play the Joker, you betcha.

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I want Scola's genius idea.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I want Mark Hamill, but I doubt the studio would go for it.
Yeah, he's my favorite in the AICN list.
He could play a former moviestar who's obsesses with his big roll that made him famous. And for some reason that the movie never explains, he has a lightsaber and Jedi powers.
Oh, and Ewoks. He has a possie of Ewok henchmen.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Hamill was the voice of the animated Joker, and he fucking kicked ass in the role.

That's why I liked the suggestion.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
AICN has a poll on the subject. One of the selections in the poll is Matt's suggestion.
And he's currently leading by 300 votes. Note: I did NOT know about this poll when I made my suggestion. I think it wil pay to be well-known in Hollywood for one's lunatic creepyness when discussions of Joker casting start.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Hamill was the voice of the animated Joker
Isn't he still, in JLU?
He's the best by far, but I don't know if his physical acting skills match his voice work. Maybe they could have him dub over whoever gets cast. (If a sequel with Joker gets made, since this is all hypothetical right now.)

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Hamill also played the Trickster in the live-action Flash series.

Hamill would be a good 2nd choice in terms of the physical acting, but Glover's some lipstick and green hair dye away from actually being the Joker.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Cillian would have done a pretty good likeness too.
God, I find him creepy.
I'm suddenly taken by the idea of JRM as the Joker, but I understand that's mostly my thing for him and makeup. He'd make a kickass redone Riddler, though.
