No Name No comment Ok, this might sound a little rude, but did you even see the movie? Superheroes have been outlawed in this universe. Wonder Woman went back to Amazon lily, The Green Arrow retired, Catwoman started a brothel (I at least think it is) and no one has been active for at least a decade. So to answer your question ... They did. There are no superheroes anymore in Gotham, or the world for that matter, except for Superman.
They actually had a comic were joker thought batman died. In it, he literally forgot he was the joker and became a normal guy. He got a girlfriend, a nice apartment, and a good job.

Ryan Staiger I know right? It just sounds so perfect and empty, you get it, you understand the character of this movie. Also arthur Fleck had the softest voice imaginable, it was truly unique, yet no one cared there idk why people hate this, it's brilliant. It's just a fringe group that hates this version methinks.
I Prefer the more LIKABLE Jokers such as: 1. The Tragic Arthur Fleck(A Realistic Deconstruction of the Joker; and What kind of ****ed-Up Life can make someone as twisted as HE is) 2. The Sane Jack Napier from Batman: White Knight(I Loved How for ONCE; The joker, or the Man who USED to be The Joker is trying to FIX gotham's Problems, and is Seeking a Way to Expose them, and Fix Gotham City; and Stop the Gatekeepers of Gotham who are Exploiting Batman for their own Monetary Gain)
@@New3DSLuigi364 Travis Bickle (Arthur Fleck) was NOT the real Joker, pay attention to all the clocks in film, hence the final joke at the end, he made all that shit up in his head on the spot. Jack Nicholson was NOT Tim Burton's first choice for the Joker, Studio intervention was the main reason for that toned down version of J. Hopefully Matt Reeves will one day give us a COMIC ACCURATE R Rated no holds barred psychopathic UN MARTYRED Joker.

little N My favorite examples come from Arkham city. Joker trusts batman so much that he relies on him completely to find the cure. Also, int eh voicemails he points out how joker is pretty much how batman spends the majority of his time, so that makes them best friends. It's nice to know that joker thinks of bats as his best friend, even if he only says it to get under batman's skin.
little N I think ideal he wants them to go out together. like in the under the red hood movie where they are about to die together, and he's just do happy about how perfect that is. His caring is in crazy way sure, but they're as good as married...just not in a gay way.
I know Arkham's a shitty mental institution, but you'd think they'd want to keep the Joker from hearing anything about Batman, considering how this version is in love with him in some twisted way, which they undoubtedly figured out at some point. I mean, he went docile when Batman retired.
TV: "The real villain here is Batman" Joker: "So according to the sheep, I'm just a victim of your irrational crusade, these gangs are extensions of your vigilante-ism, and this city would have been better off without you... ...still think they're worth saving, Bats?"
i got chills when i first saw it. Specially since it was the end of the movie with that epic song finishing it all. I don't like this voice for joker, but honestly this one line couldn't have been better for me.
I'm not saying that this version of joker is one of the greatest, but his line in this scene IS one of the greatest when i comes to delivery. "Daarrling..." ooooooohhhhh the chills
This was far from the Mark Hamil Joker we came to love, but you gotta admit that Emerson's depiction of The Joker was very creepy and brutal. I liked that he was able to bring something more than a laughing Joker with his usual antics.
Yes I love when actors try to do their own thing instead emulation, sometimes it works and sometimes not, but at least we get unique depictions, i.e. John dimmagio and heath ledger
why is this Animated movie infinitely more sophisticated and nuanced than Batman V Superman's drivel plot? why can't people who make a 250 million dollar movie work off a good script?
HE DID the movie's original cut was 4 HOURS long but then had to be cut down from that to 2 and a half hours long Snyder's releasing a 3 hour r-rated director's cut of the film show that HE at least had a good movie in mind but one that was neutered to oblivion by the producers or whoever made that decision
For people who think Joker is gay, I want you to do something for me. Imagine a world were the one thing that made you... well you, went away. Never again to resurface. That's how the Joker feels about Batman. Joker could just go on and kill, murder, steal, and so on. But where's the fun in doing that without any effort. Here, the Joker just gave up... until he returned. and all he wanted was just one last play date with The Dark Knight. It's like he said in The Dark Knight: "You won't kill me because of some sense self-righteous and I won't kill you because you're too much fun."
The Joker isn't attracted to women or men, he lost that privilege, all he knows is that The Batman gives him the last psychotic purpose in the world he will ever have.
thats debatable he acts very bisexual, he raped someone (forget who) and i believe its implied he raped catwomen as well then their is also the way he acts towards batman at certain times, though you could just say its the normal relationship thing at certain times it seems more sexual or romantic in nature. Though they likely left it ambiguous on purpose
@@DivineXPotato I think that when he rapes someone it's less about pleasure and more about control. Even some rapists that aren't crazy murderers do it as a means to control someone. If it was just about pleasure they'd just hire someone
Julian Birco What i got from it was that she was just there to represent a snipet of the people. The apathetic & docile middleman of the citizenry. 'Why can't he just let things go, like the rest of us" she had just given up one more than a few things and was filling the emptiness with excessive eating and outward hostilility and gluttony.
@@Veed.l0 She's even a hypocrite for saying "let things go like the rest of us" when literally they can't let go of their hatred for Batman or other heroes even though all they did was save their sorry asses from mass genocide to even near extinction at times from villains such as Darkseid.
batman and joker BOTH need each other, just like in death note with Light and L, both batman and the joker are on a higher level of existence than anyone else in gotham. not the robins or the other villians, batman and the joker understood each other in the worst way possible, a visible ying or yang to eachothers ying or yang for them both to always see. like an ugly truth, each one is a strong part of eachother, whenever either of them looks in the mirror, its the other one they see looking back at them, weather they love it like the joker or it haunts them to the point of near insanity like batman, both receive some sort of drug like return to one another consistently. Both of them lie on the complete opposite ends of the spectrum of morality, so far apart that the spectrum is bent so both ends face eachother back to back, so far yet closer than anyone else around them. Its amazing, probably the greatest fictional relationship since the creation of jeckle and hide
Like they sort of said in the film, Batman needs the Joker to for fill his "hero complex" Batman knows only he can defeat him and that gives him purpose in his life and validates what he does. Every time Joker breaks out it justifies the police are not good enough and they need him. It's so hard for Batman to just kill him because when he does, he won't be needed anymore. Joker cares about nothing except things that entertain him. He uses Batman as a play thing, even when Batman wins he still looses because he knows he should of killed him.
TeamTripleStar THANK YOU! I'm sick of people saying that "they both need each other" making it seem like batman is okay with joker being around because it "validates him". Da fk, are ya serious!? Batman even said it himself "there's nothing I hate more in this world than you joker". Also in the red hood movie, batman tells Jason Todd that it would be all to easy to allow himself to kill joker, but he doesn't because once he crosses that line he will never come back.
Why else keep him alive? like Jason said it's just one guy, just because he kills the joker doesn't mean "oh shit, I have to kill every mugger I meet now" no. I'm SURE people have slowly died or been permanently disabled from Batman beating them up over the years, so any "line" has already been crossed.
I noticed a few people posting their thoughts on Jokers "Interests" saying he is a possibly homosexual, bisexual, or asexual. In my opinion he's Pansexual (In his own twisted way). His turnon isn't gender, race or any of those things at all. His turnon is more of an Ideal, or motivation. fThat motivation being The Corruption of Purity. Three examples are Harley who once was a normal individual who Joker corrupted into something her wanted her to be, Batman who is an unbreakable individual who The Joker wants to break to show that all men are as breakable as he is, and third Superman. Remember the game Injustice? Perfect example of how he was even able to corrupt someone as pure as Superman.
The idea that Batman created his own enemies was already tackled by the animated series. And in that show they have proven that Batman is created by the enemies.
+piplup2009 He had nothing to live for without batman, so he just kinda breathed along. But when batman returned, so did the joker. It's funny how batman's life is complicated that way. Go away, and the city is overrun by gangs, return, and the gangs go away, but the villians? They return as well.
Frosty Well if you think about it without Batman Joker doesn't have anything to do. Joker's main goal is to prove everyone has a breaking point and wants Batman to kill him to prove his point because he's the one person who apparently won't kill no matter how far he's pushed to the edge.
I always considered the Joker to be Asexual. He would use Harley to his advantage but didn't love her and would occasionally push sexual innuendos on Batman and others to get under their skin but sex is the 9001st thing on his mind.
Gavin Allerton I was not saying that Asexual means someone is manipulative and intentionally creepy. That's what *The Joker* does. Personally I think Joker has no sexual interests.
+Michael Nyholt It depends on the writer and/or one's interpretation. Some consider him straight, other think he's asexual, and a fair amount of people think he's Batman-sexual.
+Michael Nyholt I completely agree, but i would say that 90% of comic book/cartoon villains (and a lot of heroes as well) are asexual, not just the Joker.
A moment of silence for all of the people who bought/rented the special edition of the Dark Knight Returns where both parts of the story are awkwardly stitched together. Part 1 is supposed to end when the Joker says “Daaarling” and it’s such a good ending. It leaves you wanting more. But ironically, the special edition makes this moment so much less special
You'd think the doc would've had more common sense and noticed that the dude who went docile after Batman disappeared suddenly sprung back to life as soon as the news began mentioning his name again. If that's not a red flag, I don't know what is.
It's interesting to put the Joker in this perspective that makes you think that he had homicidal yet romantic feelings for the Batman. It would explain why the Joker was most jubilant when Batman is near him, why his life had no meaning when he thought Batman was gone forever, and then his choice of words in this film portrayal in particular.
Joseph Harris You know nothing about The Joker. I’m not saying this to be rude but to inform you about who The Joker really is. He’s not in love with Batman nor does he want to kill him. He is obsessed with Batman because he thinks of him as his equal and the only one that truly understands him. Neither of them can live without the other in The Joker’s eyes but not in a romantic way. He thinks that they are connected and intertwined. He doesn’t want to kill him because he truly believes that he can’t live without him because they are basically one in the same in his mind. In reality though they are complete opposites from each other. You can clearly see this in The Dark Knight movie and many other Batman stories. Another great example of The Joker’s obsession with the Batman is in Arkham Origins. When Joker is knocked off a building Batman jumps off the building and saved him. Batman did this for one reason. To be a symbol that there is always light in the dark. Batman doesn’t kill or let others die because he wants to set an example for the world. He looks dark and brooding to scare the criminals of Gotham but the real symbol is that there is always light in the dark. He looks terrifying but he is no killer because he is not one of the criminals. He is the light in the darkness. The darkness is his physical appearance but the light is what’s underneath. When he saves Joker Detective Bullock thinks that he is The Joker’s partner because he saved him even though he’s a homicidal maniac. Joker of course tells Detective Bullock that he’s not his partner and Bullock says, “Why else would he save your sorry ass?” And Joker looks out the window of the police car and whispers to himself, “I was wondering the same thing myself.” In the Arkhamverse that’s when his obsession with Batman began. The animated movies that the clip above is from is The Dark Knight Returns part 1 and part 2 which is an adaptation of the graphic novel of the same name, without the part 1 and 2, written by Frank Miller. When Batman retired after Joker killed the second Robin Jason Todd Joker went quiet because, like I said earlier, he can’t live without Batman. It’s not because he has romantic feelings for him but because he thinks that they are one in the same and one can’t live without the other. That is what the Joker thinks but of course that is insane. The difference is he’s barely insane. He’s just pure evil.
Gotham Savior yeah everyone says this but isn't that what love is? Someone you can't live without? So idk if it's sexual or not I think it's both because the joker probably doesn't care about lines and blurs the line between familial love ("the brother I never had, my best friend" - Jeremiah valeska and I use this example because I feel it is relevant to the point I'm making not that Jeremiah is 100% accurate to comic joker) and passionate sexual love. I don't think he cares about boundaries or "incest". So it isn't rooted in sex, it's rooted it symbolism. That said, the joker may kiss Batman because he loves him and he ofc does taunt him by being flirty but that's as a joke. It really doesn't matter though
@@AustinNGrayson OK Simple question why does he call him "Darling" in this universe? I'm not disagreeing in the other TV/Game universes, but it seems a bit more weirdly romantic in this movie with how the Joker talks about Batman and how clear it's set in this universe for how once Batman was gone, Joker was basically in a "vegetative" state.
I think it's less between them and more in joker's head. He was really pushing this whole romance thing in this movie and Batman just wanted Joker dead.
as if Joker genuinely gives a fuck about love and romance. This dude just knows his reason to kill people is back, and that makes him ecstatic. One last chance to make the big bad batman kill him
Of course it is. It's a paradox doomed to failure since the law is against vigilantism but Batman is a vigilante who works outside the law but still manages to take down dangerous criminals that law enforcers cannot handle on their own. To support him is to allow illegal activity to stop other illegal activity, but to denounce him is to toss aside a crucial asset to stopping dangerous criminals.
Lazy Lauren itd be cool if he was gay but him loving batman in his own twisted and sick way doesnt make him gay. hes a fucking human ( I think lol ) for christ sake. im gay and youre probably straight, cis. you sound very childish imo
Joker is imprisoned and even mentally incapacitated. Why on earth would Gotham City decide to keep and even take care of him in mental hospital instead of executing him?! He killed like thousands in his villain career!
I don't think executing the mentally disturbed is considered ethical, as it could be argued they are not totally in control of their own actions. This in mind, you get a bit Aryan executing those deemed imperfect and that's the last thing you'd want.
Hellfire Heroes Joker is insane, but not legally insane (being unaware of right and wrong at the time of committing a crime), so 99 out of 100 courts would fry his ass. In real life, anyway.
Something that has never made sense to me is how joker was so buff in this comic/movie. With batman I could understand but the joker hadn't been doing anything since batman retired yet he has the build of a goddamn steer on steroids.
Joker's purpose: To troll! But that's putting it simply. He desires to prove that anyone can lose it. There is nothing pure in this world and the high and mighty can become weak and fall.
Its simple. Without batman the joker has purpose to what he does. Dc actully Explorer This further in a couple issues of legend of Dark knight( Pre new 52) in a story called going sane. Their batman disapears for six months . And with no batman around the joker has no Reason exisist . So he becomes normal. Takers medicine for skin condition and settles down in gotham under the name Joseph Carr ad gets married. He Then lives happy with his wife . But when batman returns later in the story . The joker becomes himself again and the story ends batman defeating the joker and sending him right back to arkham .
madsdahlc the bat doesn't simply disappear in that story, he dies. In one interpretation of that story, Joker, having had an almost Deadpool level of awareness that he is just a comic figure, always believed his purpose was to be the antagonist to a fiction story, that all the death and misery he caused had no actual victims and only served the drama and entertainment of a story in which Batman is the hero. When Batman died, he came to the conclusion that no fiction franchise would ever kill off the hero, which meant that his life couldn't actually be fiction, it had to be real. Trying to reconcile with this discovery, he stopped being the evil antagonist of a story and tried to live a normal civic life, until the bat returned and the comic book reality reestablished itself. I don't remember if it was in the same story or in a different one, but there is a scene where Joker is talking to his shrink about his "imaginary fans" which the doctor initially believed to be a mis-spoken "imaginary friends". When asking the Joker if he was sure his imaginary fans were not just a figment of his imagination, the Joker replied with the counter question if the doctor is sure that he is not just a figment of theirs (his fans'). His certainty is shown to not be unshakable though, because the moment he is put back in his cell, he looks at the 4th wall and asked the readers for confirmation that they are real.
His mind is years out of commission for years, barely alive in a vegetative state. And the first thing he does seconds after regaining his senses is crack a one liner. And just like that, the gears inside his head start turning immediately to recognize everything that's happened and think up how to best exploit the situation for maximum chaos. That's how you know the Joker is absolute evil.
Michael Emmerson. Such a good choice for this Joker. Perfect for the story. I just don't envision Mark Hamill's Joker fitting into this film correctly. That being said, my favorite Joker will always be the one from the animated series.
Batman has always given joker purpose. In a way joker is one of the few characters that truly loves batman. He has always been that insurmountable pillar of order to the chaos that is joker. It only makes sense that there would be a connection there. If it was written well and properly it could enhance the bat-verse well. I mean batman has already been used to talk about mature topics before. He's been raped and has a strange relationship with catwoman. Its not completely out of the question. Why not add a doomed relationship between him and the joker.
I always thought that one of the best parts of this movie was the balance of the public opinion. A lot of people hated Batman, but a lot of people loved him too.
*Does crazy ass shit, kills ppl, tortures them beyond belief, breaks his own fucking neck* Fans: Ah Good Old Joker! *Says darling in a sadistic and sinister way* Fans: OMFG HE'S GOT THE GAY?!?!!!! You...WTF. No. Just because we live in a society where men (Or women for that matter) rarely use the term darling unless in a romantic manner doesn't mean it's romantic. Especially in this case. Batman is Jokers obsession, his beloved arch nemesis. Joker can break almost anyone of their humanity...But not Batman. This fuels the Joker even more...Does he love batman? No, he loves the fight with batman. Does he lust after batman? No, he desires to finally win. He loves the chase, the thrill, the challenge, the pain, the mystery, the excitement of fueling the fire and getting Bruce to finally snap. To finally admit defeat, kill him and therefore break his oath against murder. Would the Joker be devastated if batman died? Yes, especially if it wasn't by his hands. The monster went into a catatonic state once batman retired. He has become completely obsessed with batman and in a way he does 'love' him...In the pretty sick, fucked up, I want to kill you sort of way at least... The Batman and jokers relationship is complex and no one can label it by normal 'romantic/sexual or even platonic' standards. Him calling batman darling is both endearing and sick and has malice just dripping from the way he uses the word...But not romantic or sexual.
The Joker is so interesting. After he lost his wife, the only thing remained for him is Batman. I wouldn't be suprised if he made all the other crime and villains just so he could watch Batman. After Batman was gone, he lost everything in his life. But when he came back, he did everything for a last reunion.
*Staring Straight at Joker, not batting an eye at all* "YOU look at him, the guy makes me sick." Oh... Well I guess you won't look at him by staring dead straight at him.
Love how this depiction of the joker almost perfectly resembles the Lich from Adventure time in that not having a purpose causes them to cease to function almost completely.
A straight man's version of an abusive relationship that neither partner will end. I love how multiple Batman and Joker fans have pointed that out. That's what their rivalry basically is. Neither one of them refused to kill each other for years. Even though Joker says he's won, Batman's the one who ended the abusive relationship. I definitely like the tunnel of Love touch combined with the brutality of the beatdown. I definitely hope they make a good Joker and Batman movie with not only good actors but with this rivalry.
@@leafyishereisdumbnameakath4259 not to be negative, but I think most people know what I mean by it and I don't need the language police after me. The last thing I need is somebody trolling me because I'm a heterosexual male who used the wrong words that aren't even wrong to begin with.
I wasn't sure about camp joker to start with (not that I'm homophobic it just didn't feel right.) but I think it's all part of the act. It's the Joker lowering his psychiatrists defenses and also drawing attention to his and Bats unhealthy relationship and parodying it. It's actually kind of brilliant.
While I'm not exactly a fan of Michael Emerson's vocal portrayal of the Joker, that 'darling' line was one of the creepiest deliveries I've ever heard.
Looking at DKR Joker I see a little bit of Jared Leto in him since the brush up hair and the lips doesn't have the big permanent grin that most Joker's have not unless he smiles.
thepunkster90x I believe they are taking a pieces of different jokers put into one my boy. Besides the ones you mentioned, I see a little bit from Batman R.I.P, Batman Endgame, animated series Joker, and their own original touch to it hence the tattoes and a little bit of his suit. :)
kenji harima i was wondering why he looked so ordinarly compared to the other thin expressive jokers, you don't see this guy as crazy until he actually gets batshit crazy

the guy who voiced the joker in th is is the closest thing we got to heath ledger

Not to mention Peter fucking Weller!!! Best movie ever!
The only good moment of this Joker.
The guy who voices the joker...Michael Emerson. Talented dude. Knocked it out of the park with casting.
He was also Zepp in the Saw movie
This was far from the Mark Hamil Joker we came to love, but you gotta admit that Emerson's depiction of The Joker was very creepy and brutal. I liked that he was able to bring something more than a laughing Joker with his usual antics.
Yes I love when actors try to do their own thing instead emulation, sometimes it works and sometimes not, but at least we get unique depictions, i.e. John dimmagio and heath ledger

Epic Moment
why is this Animated movie infinitely more sophisticated and nuanced than Batman V Superman's drivel plot? why can't people who make a 250 million dollar movie work off a good script?
Because Batman v superman was directed by Zack Snyder
+Dope
What's wrong with BvS?
+Dope but did he write the script?
HE DID the movie's original cut was 4 HOURS long but then had to be cut down from that to 2 and a half hours long
Snyder's releasing a 3 hour r-rated director's cut of the film show that HE at least had a good movie in mind but one that was neutered to oblivion by the producers or whoever made that decision
*****
I think any other version that could have been made out of BvS would have been better than how it turned out.
For people who think Joker is gay, I want you to do something for me. Imagine a world were the one thing that made you... well you, went away. Never again to resurface. That's how the Joker feels about Batman. Joker could just go on and kill, murder, steal, and so on. But where's the fun in doing that without any effort. Here, the Joker just gave up... until he returned. and all he wanted was just one last play date with The Dark Knight. It's like he said in The Dark Knight: "You won't kill me because of some sense self-righteous and I won't kill you because you're too much fun."
"Without Batman, crime has no punchline,"
exact reason why i find this so adorable!
The hell are you talking about?

The Joker isn't attracted to women or men, he lost that privilege, all he knows is that The Batman gives him the last psychotic purpose in the world he will ever have.
Joseph Stalin yes
thats debatable
he acts very bisexual, he raped someone (forget who) and i believe its implied he raped catwomen as well
then their is also the way he acts towards batman at certain times, though you could just say its the normal relationship thing at certain times it seems more sexual or romantic in nature. Though they likely left it ambiguous on purpose
@@DivineXPotato he doesnt act bisexual he has an obsession with batman but it has nothing to do with being gay
@@DivineXPotato I think that when he rapes someone it's less about pleasure and more about control. Even some rapists that aren't crazy murderers do it as a means to control someone. If it was just about pleasure they'd just hire someone
He had sex for pleasure in All-Star Batman and Robin
"B-b-b... Batman. Darling."

Julian Birco What i got from it was that she was just there to represent a snipet of the people. The apathetic & docile middleman of the citizenry. 'Why can't he just let things go, like the rest of us" she had just given up one more than a few things and was filling the emptiness with excessive eating and outward hostilility and gluttony.
Cinemasins
@@Veed.l0 She's even a hypocrite for saying "let things go like the rest of us" when literally they can't let go of their hatred for Batman or other heroes even though all they did was save their sorry asses from mass genocide to even near extinction at times from villains such as Darkseid.
My favorite scene of the whole movie. Watching his true identity reignite with the eerie music backing it up just makes this scene. Like damn.
batman and joker BOTH need each other, just like in death note with Light and L, both batman and the joker are on a higher level of existence than anyone else in gotham. not the robins or the other villians, batman and the joker understood each other in the worst way possible, a visible ying or yang to eachothers ying or yang for them both to always see. like an ugly truth, each one is a strong part of eachother, whenever either of them looks in the mirror, its the other one they see looking back at them, weather they love it like the joker or it haunts them to the point of near insanity like batman, both receive some sort of drug like return to one another consistently. Both of them lie on the complete opposite ends of the spectrum of morality, so far apart that the spectrum is bent so both ends face eachother back to back, so far yet closer than anyone else around them. Its amazing, probably the greatest fictional relationship since the creation of jeckle and hide
Wow
khang mai
what?
Like they sort of said in the film, Batman needs the Joker to for fill his "hero complex" Batman knows only he can defeat him and that gives him purpose in his life and validates what he does. Every time Joker breaks out it justifies the police are not good enough and they need him. It's so hard for Batman to just kill him because when he does, he won't be needed anymore. Joker cares about nothing except things that entertain him. He uses Batman as a play thing, even when Batman wins he still looses because he knows he should of killed him.
TeamTripleStar THANK YOU! I'm sick of people saying that "they both need each other" making it seem like batman is okay with joker being around because it "validates him". Da fk, are ya serious!? Batman even said it himself "there's nothing I hate more in this world than you joker". Also in the red hood movie, batman tells Jason Todd that it would be all to easy to allow himself to kill joker, but he doesn't because once he crosses that line he will never come back.
Why else keep him alive? like Jason said it's just one guy, just because he kills the joker doesn't mean "oh shit, I have to kill every mugger I meet now" no. I'm SURE people have slowly died or been permanently disabled from Batman beating them up over the years, so any "line" has already been crossed.
I noticed a few people posting their thoughts on Jokers "Interests" saying he is a possibly homosexual, bisexual, or asexual. In my opinion he's Pansexual (In his own twisted way). His turnon isn't gender, race or any of those things at all. His turnon is more of an Ideal, or motivation. fThat motivation being The Corruption of Purity. Three examples are Harley who once was a normal individual who Joker corrupted into something her wanted her to be, Batman who is an unbreakable individual who The Joker wants to break to show that all men are as breakable as he is, and third Superman. Remember the game Injustice? Perfect example of how he was even able to corrupt someone as pure as Superman.
+Eric D. Incredible analysis!
+Eric D. This makes way more sense.
+Eric D. Oh maybe
Or i think is just he own way to speak u know cx
Just messin with people
I know. Joker is not gay. He just loves playing with Batman because he wants to break Batman
This guy. Give this guy a beer.
The idea that Batman created his own enemies was already tackled by the animated series. And in that show they have proven that Batman is created by the enemies.
And this is based on a comic that came out before that
@@leblanc3536 W
Joker "What is my purpose?"Batman "You pass butter"
seva809 Joker:... oh my god
And he would laugh like it's the funniest thing.
That ending scene in part one when Joker snaps back into to his crazy self is so creepy and well done.
Every time he says the name "Batman", Joker moves. This was really one of my favorite Dc animated movies.
So hes in a concious coma then when batman is mentioned he wakes up?
piplup2009 It seems so.
No Batman = No Joker
Ironic isn't it.
+piplup2009 He had nothing to live for without batman, so he just kinda breathed along. But when batman returned, so did the joker. It's funny how batman's life is complicated that way. Go away, and the city is overrun by gangs, return, and the gangs go away, but the villians? They return as well.
Frosty Well if you think about it without Batman Joker doesn't have anything to do. Joker's main goal is to prove everyone has a breaking point and wants Batman to kill him to prove his point because he's the one person who apparently won't kill no matter how far he's pushed to the edge.
Ya......it's called a cartoon piplup2009.

Yeah he looks swole

Joker might be older or around Batman’s age but it hasn’t hindered his tendency to be the irredeemable and remorseless monster that he is
Exactly, I wish Red Hood could torture Joker
@@Seasonal-Shadow_4674 he kinda did in under the red hood
@@darthuchiha1418 like Arkham Knight level

"Darling"
The Joker has aged so well unlike Batman, but Bruce Wayne is still athletic trying to find his strength.
This is one of the best Jokers, along with Ledger, Hamill, and Phoenix.
I always considered the Joker to be Asexual. He would use Harley to his advantage but didn't love her and would occasionally push sexual innuendos on Batman and others to get under their skin but sex is the 9001st thing on his mind.
That's...that's not what that word even remotely means
Gavin Allerton
I was not saying that Asexual means someone is manipulative and intentionally creepy. That's what *The Joker* does. Personally I think Joker has no sexual interests.
+Michael Nyholt It depends on the writer and/or one's interpretation. Some consider him straight, other think he's asexual, and a fair amount of people think he's Batman-sexual.
+SonyXBOXNintendo did you take thet frome ledgers joker yknow the dog +car bit
+Michael Nyholt I completely agree, but i would say that 90% of comic book/cartoon villains (and a lot of heroes as well) are asexual, not just the Joker.
A moment of silence for all of the people who bought/rented the special edition of the Dark Knight Returns where both parts of the story are awkwardly stitched together. Part 1 is supposed to end when the Joker says “Daaarling” and it’s such a good ending. It leaves you wanting more. But ironically, the special edition makes this moment so much less special
Best animated movie

You'd think the doc would've had more common sense and noticed that the dude who went docile after Batman disappeared suddenly sprung back to life as soon as the news began mentioning his name again. If that's not a red flag, I don't know what is.

“I don’t wanna kill you. What would I do without you? Go back to ripping off mob dealers? No. No. You complete me.”
when joker say "darling" is the best part of the movie. Of course the word batman is the only reason he awakes his slumber.
It's interesting to put the Joker in this perspective that makes you think that he had homicidal yet romantic feelings for the Batman. It would explain why the Joker was most jubilant when Batman is near him, why his life had no meaning when he thought Batman was gone forever, and then his choice of words in this film portrayal in particular.
Joseph Harris You know nothing about The Joker. I’m not saying this to be rude but to inform you about who The Joker really is. He’s not in love with Batman nor does he want to kill him. He is obsessed with Batman because he thinks of him as his equal and the only one that truly understands him. Neither of them can live without the other in The Joker’s eyes but not in a romantic way. He thinks that they are connected and intertwined. He doesn’t want to kill him because he truly believes that he can’t live without him because they are basically one in the same in his mind. In reality though they are complete opposites from each other. You can clearly see this in The Dark Knight movie and many other Batman stories. Another great example of The Joker’s obsession with the Batman is in Arkham Origins. When Joker is knocked off a building Batman jumps off the building and saved him. Batman did this for one reason. To be a symbol that there is always light in the dark. Batman doesn’t kill or let others die because he wants to set an example for the world. He looks dark and brooding to scare the criminals of Gotham but the real symbol is that there is always light in the dark. He looks terrifying but he is no killer because he is not one of the criminals. He is the light in the darkness. The darkness is his physical appearance but the light is what’s underneath. When he saves Joker Detective Bullock thinks that he is The Joker’s partner because he saved him even though he’s a homicidal maniac. Joker of course tells Detective Bullock that he’s not his partner and Bullock says, “Why else would he save your sorry ass?” And Joker looks out the window of the police car and whispers to himself, “I was wondering the same thing myself.” In the Arkhamverse that’s when his obsession with Batman began. The animated movies that the clip above is from is The Dark Knight Returns part 1 and part 2 which is an adaptation of the graphic novel of the same name, without the part 1 and 2, written by Frank Miller. When Batman retired after Joker killed the second Robin Jason Todd Joker went quiet because, like I said earlier, he can’t live without Batman. It’s not because he has romantic feelings for him but because he thinks that they are one in the same and one can’t live without the other. That is what the Joker thinks but of course that is insane. The difference is he’s barely insane. He’s just pure evil.
Gotham Savior yeah everyone says this but isn't that what love is? Someone you can't live without? So idk if it's sexual or not I think it's both because the joker probably doesn't care about lines and blurs the line between familial love ("the brother I never had, my best friend" - Jeremiah valeska and I use this example because I feel it is relevant to the point I'm making not that Jeremiah is 100% accurate to comic joker) and passionate sexual love. I don't think he cares about boundaries or "incest". So it isn't rooted in sex, it's rooted it symbolism. That said, the joker may kiss Batman because he loves him and he ofc does taunt him by being flirty but that's as a joke. It really doesn't matter though
Gotham Savior that was well written though and yes lmaooo he is insane.
@@AustinNGrayson OK Simple question why does he call him "Darling" in this universe? I'm not disagreeing in the other TV/Game universes, but it seems a bit more weirdly romantic in this movie with how the Joker talks about Batman and how clear it's set in this universe for how once Batman was gone, Joker was basically in a "vegetative" state.
Y'all know there's some deep "romantically" twisted shit happening between them and _I LOVE IT._
I think it's less between them and more in joker's head. He was really pushing this whole romance thing in this movie and Batman just wanted Joker dead.
Joker sounds gay in this movie
as if Joker genuinely gives a fuck about love and romance. This dude just knows his reason to kill people is back, and that makes him ecstatic. One last chance to make the big bad batman kill him
I love this joker
Even politics about Batman is stupid.
Of course it is. It's a paradox doomed to failure since the law is against vigilantism but Batman is a vigilante who works outside the law but still manages to take down dangerous criminals that law enforcers cannot handle on their own. To support him is to allow illegal activity to stop other illegal activity, but to denounce him is to toss aside a crucial asset to stopping dangerous criminals.

"Let the good times roll!!!"

Never insult batman in front of joker. Never.
I believe Joker isn't gay he's just obsessed with batman and wants to tear him apart

The Joker doesn't have a sexual preferences he's whatever he feels like being
What's so interesting is the fact that Michael Emerson is even creepier as a live action guy. Such as on Lost as Ben.
He just loves him so much
This looks like the same animation style as the boondocks. I keep expecting Uncle Ruckus to show up.
That debate is the most unrealistic thing about this video, the are way too civilized
Joker is imprisoned and even mentally incapacitated. Why on earth would Gotham City decide to keep and even take care of him in mental hospital instead of executing him?! He killed like thousands in his villain career!
A Friendly RUclips Commenter cuz of people like that therapist
I don't think executing the mentally disturbed is considered ethical, as it could be argued they are not totally in control of their own actions. This in mind, you get a bit Aryan executing those deemed imperfect and that's the last thing you'd want.
Hellfire Heroes Joker is insane, but not legally insane (being unaware of right and wrong at the time of committing a crime), so 99 out of 100 courts would fry his ass. In real life, anyway.
Year later, Hi. I just want you to know that I am pretty sure it is heavily illegal in SEVERAL countries for public executions.
Because he's considered clinically insane. They can't execute someone who's considered legally insane.
When the Joker is a better psychologist than the damn psychologist.

The darling line is the scariest line in cinematic history.
Who can look at the joker smiling and think anything good can come from it?
This really puts things in perspective when you link all the Joker clips like you did.
Something that has never made sense to me is how joker was so buff in this comic/movie. With batman I could understand but the joker hadn't been doing anything since batman retired yet he has the build of a goddamn steer on steroids.
Joker's purpose: To troll!
But that's putting it simply. He desires to prove that anyone can lose it. There is nothing pure in this world and the high and mighty can become weak and fall.
The moment Joker said that, his insanity returned.
Joaquin Phoenix as joker totally matches this animated version wtf
Its simple. Without batman the joker has purpose to what he does. Dc actully Explorer This further in a couple issues of legend of Dark knight( Pre new 52) in a story called going sane. Their batman disapears for six months . And with no batman around the joker has no Reason exisist . So he becomes normal. Takers medicine for skin condition and settles down in gotham under the name Joseph Carr ad gets married. He Then lives happy with his wife . But when batman returns later in the story . The joker becomes himself again and the story ends batman defeating the joker and sending him right back to arkham .
madsdahlc the bat doesn't simply disappear in that story, he dies. In one interpretation of that story, Joker, having had an almost Deadpool level of awareness that he is just a comic figure, always believed his purpose was to be the antagonist to a fiction story, that all the death and misery he caused had no actual victims and only served the drama and entertainment of a story in which Batman is the hero. When Batman died, he came to the conclusion that no fiction franchise would ever kill off the hero, which meant that his life couldn't actually be fiction, it had to be real. Trying to reconcile with this discovery, he stopped being the evil antagonist of a story and tried to live a normal civic life, until the bat returned and the comic book reality reestablished itself.
I don't remember if it was in the same story or in a different one, but there is a scene where Joker is talking to his shrink about his "imaginary fans" which the doctor initially believed to be a mis-spoken "imaginary friends". When asking the Joker if he was sure his imaginary fans were not just a figment of his imagination, the Joker replied with the counter question if the doctor is sure that he is not just a figment of theirs (his fans'). His certainty is shown to not be unshakable though, because the moment he is put back in his cell, he looks at the 4th wall and asked the readers for confirmation that they are real.
Never humanize the joker.
The movie did and he became thé Joker
@@lebatman790 And that movie was phenomenal!
His mind is years out of commission for years, barely alive in a vegetative state. And the first thing he does seconds after regaining his senses is crack a one liner. And just like that, the gears inside his head start turning immediately to recognize everything that's happened and think up how to best exploit the situation for maximum chaos. That's how you know the Joker is absolute evil.
Quite an analysis there
He's been pent up for far too long that Pandora's box just cracked Open when Bruce came back
Michael Emmerson. Such a good choice for this Joker. Perfect for the story. I just don't envision Mark Hamill's Joker fitting into this film correctly.
That being said, my favorite Joker will always be the one from the animated series.
Batman has always given joker purpose. In a way joker is one of the few characters that truly loves batman. He has always been that insurmountable pillar of order to the chaos that is joker. It only makes sense that there would be a connection there.
If it was written well and properly it could enhance the bat-verse well. I mean batman has already been used to talk about mature topics before. He's been raped and has a strange relationship with catwoman. Its not completely out of the question. Why not add a doomed relationship between him and the joker.
Michael Emerson...jesus fucking christ. The part where Joker says "Darling"...always gives me chills.
1:35
did he say darling?
OMG IS HE THAT CRAZY PSYCHO FROM OUTLAST
I always thought that one of the best parts of this movie was the balance of the public opinion. A lot of people hated Batman, but a lot of people loved him too.
“The sons of batman don’t make speeches, we act”
Then batman comes and makes a speech in front of them
*Does crazy ass shit, kills ppl, tortures them beyond belief, breaks his own fucking neck*
Fans: Ah Good Old Joker!
*Says darling in a sadistic and sinister way*
Fans: OMFG HE'S GOT THE GAY?!?!!!!
You...WTF. No.
Just because we live in a society where men (Or women for that matter) rarely use the term darling unless in a romantic manner doesn't mean it's romantic. Especially in this case.
Batman is Jokers obsession, his beloved arch nemesis. Joker can break almost anyone of their humanity...But not Batman. This fuels the Joker even more...Does he love batman? No, he loves the fight with batman. Does he lust after batman? No, he desires to finally win. He loves the chase, the thrill, the challenge, the pain, the mystery, the excitement of fueling the fire and getting Bruce to finally snap. To finally admit defeat, kill him and therefore break his oath against murder.
Would the Joker be devastated if batman died? Yes, especially if it wasn't by his hands. The monster went into a catatonic state once batman retired. He has become completely obsessed with batman and in a way he does 'love' him...In the pretty sick, fucked up, I want to kill you sort of way at least...
The Batman and jokers relationship is complex and no one can label it by normal 'romantic/sexual or even platonic' standards. Him calling batman darling is both endearing and sick and has malice just dripping from the way he uses the word...But not romantic or sexual.
bloodmoon43 Preach it man. Someone who understands these characters
bloodmoon43 you i like you have a brain
The Joker is so interesting. After he lost his wife, the only thing remained for him is Batman. I wouldn't be suprised if he made all the other crime and villains just so he could watch Batman. After Batman was gone, he lost everything in his life.
But when he came back, he did everything for a last reunion.

You'd think the so-called educated people working there would've seen the connection of Joker moving again at the same time Batman came back.
Love how this depiction of the joker almost perfectly resembles the Lich from Adventure time in that not having a purpose causes them to cease to function almost completely.
A straight man's version of an abusive relationship that neither partner will end. I love how multiple Batman and Joker fans have pointed that out. That's what their rivalry basically is. Neither one of them refused to kill each other for years. Even though Joker says he's won, Batman's the one who ended the abusive relationship. I definitely like the tunnel of Love touch combined with the brutality of the beatdown. I definitely hope they make a good Joker and Batman movie with not only good actors but with this rivalry.
or you could have just said abusive relationship

If The Joker was in The Dark Knight Rises this is what I think would have happened.
The first time I heard the "Batman... Darling" line, it gave me chills.
I swear when he calls batman 'darling' my mind went straight to Eddie Gluskin from outlast. They are both creepy psychopaths in an insane asylum.
I wasn't sure about camp joker to start with (not that I'm homophobic it just didn't feel right.) but I think it's all part of the act. It's the Joker lowering his psychiatrists defenses and also drawing attention to his and Bats unhealthy relationship and parodying it. It's actually kind of brilliant.
since when did gay mean camp? I thought camp meant hammy or cheesy. Also how's he campy?
bro, joker IS camp. He's always been camp. Fucking...LOOK AT HIM.
While I'm not exactly a fan of Michael Emerson's vocal portrayal of the Joker, that 'darling' line was one of the creepiest deliveries I've ever heard.
Looking at DKR Joker I see a little bit of Jared Leto in him since the brush up hair and the lips doesn't have the big permanent grin that most Joker's have not unless he smiles.
Leto is using DKR and Killing Joke for inspiration
