I don't know, I thought he was bad and the character was bad. Other than a laugh, how was he Joker-like at all?
I think the film makers were too intimidated to tell him to play the Joker and not "Jered Leto as the Joker" If that makes sense?
It seems like he saw the modern Emo-Rapper and thought, "What if they were white and giggled?"
Cesar Romero was a great Joker, I think second to Mark Hamill's voice acting. But, he was and different kind of Joker for a different style of media.
I'm pretty sure Leto forced his version of Joker through into the movie, and there was talk of him getting a Joker movie of his own before Suicide Squad 1.
I think he even tried to stop the Joaquin Phoenix movie as well. (rumors)
Then, Morbius happened.
Burton and Nicholson's Joker were good, too.
Hell, some people are STILL imitating it.
