I second that. I remember seeing the 1989 Batman after hearing weeks of hype about Jack Nicholson's performance and thinking it wasn't all that (while it was fun, it wasn't this mind-blowing performance I'd been expecting). Heath Ledger in The Dark Knight was not overhyped one bit. My husband is a big comics geek and he really, really loved Ledger's performance (his grouse with Nicholson was that he wasn't playing the Joker. What can I say, comic book nerds have strong opinions about these things. )
