A community portal about Jack Nicholson with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: John Joseph Nicholson, better known as Jack Nicholson (born April 22, 1937 in New York, New York) is a highly successful, iconic, three-time Academy Award and seven time Golden Globe winning American method actor known for his often dark-themed portrayals of neurotic characters. He has been nominated for an Academy Award 12 times (winning 3 of them), more than any other male actor, and second only to Meryl Streep (who has 13 nominations and 2 wins) in total nominations. He is tied with Walter Brennan for most wins by a male actor, and second to Katharine Hepburn for most acting wins overall (Hepburn had 4). He has also won seven Golden Globe Awards and he received a Kennedy Center Honors in 2001.
I love them both and Jack Nicholson was great for his time he looked way more like the comic book but Heath Ledger just owned it he was wacky scary and he surprised me I thought it was being overhyped bc of his ...
Jack Nicholson's Joker was a blast. Heath Ledger's Joker is as dark and anarchic a figure as Randle McMurphy in ``One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest,'' the role that brought Nicholson his first Academy Award.
As "The Dark Knight" looms, I had some deep thoughts on the two Jokers of Hollywood. You know them as Jack and Heath.
No, Jack Nicholson hasn't died (yet). But I couldn't help but reminisce over his 1989 performance in Tim Burton's Batman this week, especially in lieu of the fact that Heath...

The Pitch: Jack or Heath? Which Joker is better? SilverLightsaber put together a trailer mashup where both Jokers must face off. Not quite as good as Battle of the Batmans, but worth checking out.

Jack Nicholson's Joker was a blast. Heath Ledger's Joker is as dark and anarchic a figure as Randle McMurphy in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," the role that brought Nicholson his first Academy Award.
As audiences around the world are discovering today, the late Heath Ledger has taken the iconic Joker character in The Dark Knight to entirely new depths of emotion and complexity. Personally, I feel like he's bested Jack Nicholson's long-held title by far, but some might consider that apples to...
First off, I think this movie critic has no idea what he is talking about. Yes, Ledger did not break the scariness to the character like Jack Nicholson can with his crazy movies. But, those type of movies, that freak you out at the beginning, like Texas Chainsaw, only hit you at the surface and...
Jack Nicholson’s Joker was a blast. Heath Ledger’s Joker is as dark and anarchic a figure as Randle McMurphy in “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest,” the role that brought Nicholson his first Academy Award. Ledger’s performance in the Batman tale “The Dark Knight” is so remarkable that next Jan. 22...
With Heath Ledger deservedly getting so much hype for “The Dark Knight,” it seems a good time to revisit the last time The Joker appeared on the big screen. Tim Burton’s “Batman,” starring Jack Nicholson as The Joker, came out on June 23, 1989.
The late Heath Ledger's bravura turn as the bad, mad Joker in The Dark Knight seems destined to earn the actor a posthumous Oscar nomination. Against all odds, Ledger rescues the character from the campy antics of Cesar Romero and Jack Nicholson before him, turning him into a truly sinister...
(July 24, 2008) — You heard it here first: the late Heath Ledger will win an Academy Award for his defining, spine-tingling performance as The Joker. Forget Cesar Romero’s hamming it up on the campy 1960s TV series. Ditto, Jack Nicholson’s ...
