Actually, now that I think about it.. Tom Hardy as a Latino from the Caribbean? :/ Would it have been hard for them to cast an actual Hispanic actor? I don't even want to get into that argument, but..
Doesn't matter how serious they get; they're never going to top the scene in the animated series where joker shoved batman into a sealed trashcan looking thing, then says something to the effect of "DON'T FORGET THE AIR HOLES!" and starts using a long steel shank to jab holes in the can, then throwing it into the water.
That was fucked up.
Yeah, I never watched Birds of Prey, but I thought it was an awesome idea to have Mark Hamill voice a live-action Joker.
And to be honest, I'm not a huge fan of Nolan's Batman series. I know he's catering to the masses and trying to get Batman to feel more "real", but.. it's Batman. He's a dude in a mask who fights crime. No amount of "realism" is going to change the fact that the dude is a superhero, and I hate it when they try and make things so realistic that it removes what was cool about the characters to begin with.

The biggest difference between batman and every other LOL DC Hero is that Batman has always been the closest DC could ever come to making a Marvel Hero. The Realism isn't the fact that he's got an endless supply of money for all sorts of cool shit, it's that he could be human.
If I recall my trivia correctly, Batman is the only one who didn't have "superhuman" powers, either through birth or, in the case of spiderman, poison. Everything he does is by virtue of ingenuity.
