Like Josh I'm all for different takes but this one isn't doing it for me. Ledger's Joker had menace written all over him. This guy looks like he's a dude you might meet at a Warp tour.
THIS. This right here is the problem I have with this new take on the Joker. It looks like he was designed by committee. A bunch of folks figured "well, the kids are all about tattoos and the raves and the skateboards and the YouTubes and the alternative/punk/pop/dance/electronica music and the thing and the drugs and the pot, so..."
Plus, Batfleck could beat the ever loving shit outta this guy without breaking a sweat. No real sense of threat or menace here. Just crazy looking guy I could take out with a tire iron. Ledger's Joker was pretty creepy looking and had some style to him.
If it was just the skull joker hat tattoo, fine. But he isn't going to tattoo a caricature of his own lips on his arm...plus HAHAHAHAHA all around...and "damaged" across his head is fucking lulllllllllllllllllllllllllz
