I just get irritated by that voice for some reason, though I'll have to admit Hammil does have an amazing Joker laugh. And the crush thing, just look at Ledger's pic maaan, he's no pretty boy in this film and I doubt anyone will think him sexy (unless they're into that kinda thing). Joker isn't a laughing crazy maniac, he's a serial killer and a thief - but he goes for big game. Read Arkham Asylum or the whole Justice series, you'll understand Joker a little more. For a different side of the Joker that makes one pity him, read The Killing Joke. Nicholson needs to be replaced as the end all be all of the Joker. I do love it, it's just not the same guy I like from Grant Morrison's or Jeph Loeb.
