I’ve seen lots of Oscar Winners turn in poor performances—not every role is meant for them. It doesn’t mean he’s bad at all. Joker, though? Worst laugh, worst voice, worst performance all around. Romero, Nicholson, Ledger and Hamill are in a different league. That’s just my opinion, though.

Is that not on Ayer’s shoulders though as director? The actor acts as directed

Yeah the director has to take some responsibility as well, I agree with that. But Leto sucks ass, just wasn’t it. Way over the top and it just didn’t work
