With the casting, I thought it was more than obvious they're going to make this movie more campy than Nolan's work. Which, IMO, is perfectly fine. Probably going to try making this more like the comic books, which you normally can't go wrong with. The first picture of Leto's Joker confirms this, pretty much.
The only thing that really bothers me is the tattoos themselves (really, you got 'damaged' done on your forehead? That's like an angsty 15 year-old's idea of a tattoo). They seem to be more acquainted with Joker GANG MEMBERS, not Joker himself. Part of me thinks this is because I've seen shallow Joker fanatics get "HAHAHAHA" and even the smile tattoo'd on themselves.
Even so, I can look past that. It's possible, regarding Joker, they're going for Miller's All-Star Batman & Robin version of him. It goes unsaid that all eyes are on how they portray Joker, so I'm sure they know what they're doing.
I'm very much looking forward to the movie. This and Sinister Six makes me glad we're starting to get more villain-centric movies.
