    I'm really looking forward to seeing what Jared Leto does with The Joker character. I know he's getting a lot of hate from fans of the previous version, but it wouldn't be the first time that happened.

    Joker's one of those rare characters who've been portrayed in so many different ways, in film and comics, that there's really no "right" way to do it. We've seen everything from goofy Ceasar Romero on one side of the spectrum, to faceless Hannibal Lecter on the other.

    We all have our favorites (Mark Hamill!), but I'm still excited when I see a new take on The Joker.

      This is off-topic, but I was curious how Zeus and Endymion were related and did a quick search.

      Zeus had taken Enydmion to Olympus, to live with the gods. Endymion saw and fell in love with Hera, Zeus' wife and consort. Endymion was determined to seduce or the goddess. Zeus discovered the impetuous mortal's plan. Endymion thought he was making love to Hera, when he was actually having sex with a phantom, made out of cloud. Catching Endymion in the act, Zeus then cast Endymion out of Olympus, and into Hades.

      Same here. I'm really looking forward to it. He gives off this really interesting vibe I can't quite put my finger on. Kinda punk, but not really at the same time.
