10 Dumbest Fan Theories About Upcoming Movies

5. Jared Leto's Joker Is Actually Jason Todd/Robin

This is a theory that became super popular for awhile, until people really stopped to think about it. One fan believes that the big reveal for Jared Leto€™s Joker is that he used to be Jason Todd (the second Robin) which would give him a very personal link to Ben Affleck€™s Batman. The fan pointed to puncture wounds seen on Robin€™s vandalised suit, which appear to match up with wounds seen on the Joker in a publicity photo. His tattoos might also provide clues; his €œJ€ tattoo could stand for Jason, and the bird one could be a robin. All of this is circumstantial at best; the marks seen on the Joker don€™t really match up with the holes seen on the Robin suit, and J obviously stands for Joker. That and Zack Synder takes his comics very seriously, as seen with Watchmen. It€™s extremely unlikely he would so drastically reinvent an iconic character like The Joker, just to put a put a new spin on him.
