In your opinion, who was the better Joker and why?
What do you folks think?

Heath. Both excellent performances. Heath puts it over the edge (for me) because there is no evidence of the human being known as Heath Ledger when his Joker's on screen. Not his physique, his voice, nothing.
I also prefer his ragged, darker purple suited look, his green hair is darker and messier, and fascinating though Joaquin's backstory is, I like that Heath Ledger's Joker wanders in a fully matured wild card of chaos.

I love Joaquin's performance, but Ledger's might be my favorite performance of all time.

I prefer Heath Ledger's portrayal. His version of the Joker was way more sinister and diabolical, and Heath Ledger completely disappeared into the role. Even though the Joker has about half of an hour of screentime, his presence is still felt throughout the film and it just leaves a lasting impression on you.

Heath Ledger was more scary and intimidating. Phoenix is good also.

Both are some of the best performances ever, but I have to give it to Heath.

Ledger. For me, Phoenix is a good alternative take on the Joker, but Ledger IS the Joker.

I haven't, and probably won't, watch The Joker. I have never liked Joaquin Phoenix and I never will.
But Heath Ledger was superb. He took a well known established iconic character and made it his own. It exceeded my already lofty expectations.

Heath is a better adaptation of the character...but Joaquins was more interesting.
