English is your second language and you still gave one of the best post movie breakdown’s I’ve ever seen from a reactor, keep it up 😊
Thats why theyre one of my favorite reactors because their reactions are 100% fresh and genuine!
This movie is not easy to grasp. But once you do you just never forget it. I guess they were amazing how well they got the movie.
cuz 99% of ppl who do reactions have iqs below room temperature and think we dont realize that theyre fakin reactions, or them beig to stupid to not getting the plot
Not really.
I love what Zimmer did with the music, especially the long violin note that feels like goes forever every time the joker is presented. Such tense music, made this movie so great!
second that, I still bump this score
I wonder if he wanted to 1-up John Williams’ 2-note Jaws theme.
It makes my skin crawl every time, especially during the interrogation scene with the notes climbing higher and higher.
It's actually an electric Cello, combine with a shepherd's tone (forever increasing pitch) Wonder effect
People keep forgetting that James Newton Howard also did the music for this film.
Heath put his heart and soul into playing the Joker - no-one can deny? It shows! RIP Heath another gone too soon.
Heath sold his soul and let the spirit of the joker in. He couldn't take it though. Jack Nicholson warned him about it too. Look it up.
@@thyone3925 Jack never even watched The Dark knight. Many actors put their mind into the character off screen. Jack is that natural kind of actor. Heath wasn't. It doesn't mean either he sold his soul. He played the role amazingly. It wasn't that film that sadly cost him...
He really did turn in a stellar performance. Its to bad he didn't get to see the final product. During filming, he was method acting which took a huge toll on his psyche. Jack Nicholson, who played the joker in Tim Burtons Batman(1989) ran into heath while he was shooting the movie and told him" Be careful, kid. Just be careful". A great talent indeed that was gone to soon. RIP
I think all of you are forgetting he died of an overdose
@@DiggitySlice Far from it. It was after the joker role however, and? It wasn't an intentional overdose. There's a difference.
One of the single greatest performances in cinema history....
I hope you guys stay together for ever. You’re a lovely couple.
The scene where the joker tortures the policeman dressed as batman was improvised by said actor, the director gave him the camera and did not tell him how he should act. Then, another scene that was also improvised was that of the explosions at the central hospital. They actually stopped for a few seconds but the actor continued to act as if his control had failed until the explosions returned and that is how the scene was recorded. Finally, in the interrogation scene, when batman throws the joker on the table and goes to the door with the chair, Heath Ledger was so into character that the phrase "look at you go" escaped him and the director He liked it so much that he decided to leave it.
Another interesting fact was Heath Ledger told Christian Bale to really hit him in the interrogation room
The hospital scene wasn't improvised. It was meant to be like that. If the explosives didn't go off at the intended time then that would be bad.
Katie Holmes filled her schedule and acting engagements to such a degree that she had made herself unavailable for this brilliant Dark Knight movie - Christopher Nolan was deeply frustrated and upset at requiring to recast such a vital character as Rachel, knowing it would throw the fans off, however it was Katie's fault and her own ambitions got in her own way of partaking in one of the most iconic Batman movies ever made. Ultimately, Gyllenhaal's performance as a "Rachel replacement" is simply great, and I enjoyed her character portrayal even more so, to be quite honest.
tom had a say also at the time. he didnt want her to do dak knight
Katie's performance in Batman Begins was good. My problem with it was her direction. Her character was flat, I don't think Christopher Nolan the director gave Rachael a whole lot to work with. I would have like to see her questioning witnesses in court. Maybe Rachel and Bruce could have had dinner @ some elegant restaurant and gone dancing as friends, but it turned romantic. But it remained platonic because Bruce dated other women, and maybe one woman, he wouldn't be ready for, because Bruce Wayne was a notorious bachelor, and he dated beautiful high class women.
The best comic book hero movie ever and maybe the best that ever will be. Thanks in no small part to Heath Ledger's amazing performance and the consistently exceptional writing. Even your reaction gets my heart racing! Great job, you two.
It's kinda not really a comic movie though, despite the character.
I really enjoyed your breakdown of the movie after it was over! I think you really got to the central theme of the movie
The best film of the Christopher Nolan Batman Trilogy...period !!! From Heath Ledger's Joker character & Aaron Eckhark's Two Face character to the new "toys" Batman now has. As well as one of the best scripts of any of the Batman movie franchises !!! Loved this reaction video you two !!! Keep it going !!! 🦇
When I saw this opening weekend, the audience was dead silent after they blew up Rachel. It was totally shocking and the surround sound in the theater, was booming, no pun intended. You didn’t know who they would kill next.
When he times the jump to land on the Scarecrow's van...that is the most "Batman-esque" shot ever committed to film ✌
Originally (in the comics), it was never "no-kill" it was "no handguns" since Bruce's parents were gunned down in front of him. Agreed, Batman would rather catch the criminal alive to be arrested, but he will kill in self-defense
Wrong. in the first few Batman stories he carried a handgun. They quickly (and wisely) removed that aspect. After that the no guns and no kill rules were permanent parts of Batman with the exception of Elseworlds and alternate dimension stories.
@@0lyge0 fair point, before my time mind you ;)
Heath Ledger's version of the Joker is the best performance ever caught on camera. His presence is magnetic, you are just drawn to his character from the first scene. Even though I knew Batman would win I was still cheering for the Joker because Heath played him so well. RIP Heath Ledger, the greats always tend to die young but at least he left a body of work that will be eternally revered and celebrated through cinema history.
The best Joker portrayal ever in Batman film history. What an amazing performance and a worthy Oscar for Heath Ledger in a best supporting role. R.I. P. Heath. Much love. ❤❤
Its crazy that this movie was made in 2008. Its just so well made that it feels so modern. The screenplay is flawless.
"Endeavor to persevere" Chief Dan George as Lone Watie in the film The Outlaw Josey Wales. A movie you two must see!
39:22 Trying to prove that everyone is One Bad Day away from becoming as crazy as him is one of Joker's favorite hobbies in most media. Proof to the contrary tends to anger him.
Best superhero film ever made.
Not just the best super hero movie, but one of the best movies ever made, period.
That was a fantastic breakdown and analysis after the movie, Marion. You really succinctly understood the main characters’ motivations. Yes, Harvey failed his test from the Joker. But Bruce always overcame Joker’s temptation to kill.
“You thought we could be decent men in an indecent time!”
vs.
“Why do we fall Bruce? It’s so we can learn to pick ourselves up.”
Also, you very much understood how much loss Bruce overcame.
Harvey: “Then why was it me who was the only one who lost everything?”
Bruce: “…It wasn’t.”
It was great watching your guys’ reaction and an even greater pleasure seeing y’all digest the film so throughly. Keep it up!
One of the best movies period
7:44 "Oh! What was that?!" Before John Wick's pencil, there was the Joker's! ✏
10:12 that old tech. Probably been doing that for 50 years in the US military.
It was never said but the way the joker was. On the ferry boats if you used the trigger, it probably was going to blow up your own boat. (Just my thought.)
Exactly. That was my thought too. He wanted both of them to blow up and that's the only way that can happen.
One of the greatest movie openings ever! There will never be another that will play the Joker like Heath. Christopher Nolans trilogy will never be topped. If you enjoy the Batman universe I suggest you watch the TV show Gotham for your own pleasure. It's really good with amazing characters and great acting. Especially Robin Lord Taylor as the Penguin. Another fun reaction from you guys!! 💯
“LOOK AT ME!” That came from the depths of Hell. 11:10
Been waiting for this! So much fun watching with y'all
The rig Batman used to get Lau out of the building was a real thing. It was called "Skyhook" and was developed by the CIA (though there is at least one other similar system) in the Vietnam War era. It was intended to allow people or packages to picked up without the aircraft having to land. It works because at the right speed, the rope will stretch enough that the people or cargo won't be (likely) be injured or killed in the process, but it is still a wild ride.
Supposedly the hospital bit wasn't planned.
Some of the pyrotechnics didn't go off immediately, so Ledger (Joker) started fiddling with the detonator in character, and then the explosives going off again actually surprised him.
It was actually planned. That's how it was in the script. Christopher Nolan himself confirmed it.
The best Batman movie out there, in my opinion. Heath Ledger here in a performance for the ages. 👏👏👏
Nah, this is the best FILM but The Batman is the best Batman movie.
Can’t wait to get home after work and unwind with this! Love you guys!
"Joker needs a camera stick" made me LOL. Heath Ledger was so good in this role!
Just sux so bad we lost Heath Ledger....sux he passed away be4 he saw his work and the impact...tgey had to give his family the Oscar posthumously.... " after death " .....so sad...loss a great person and an even better actor...amazing RIP 🙏 🪦 😌
Katie Holmes, who originally played Rachel Dawes, was replaced because she filmed the critically and commercially panned "Mad Money". 🤦🏽♂️
It's very likely the people in the boats had the detonator to their own boat. That would be classic Joker.
Thjs is what Nolan said in an enterview. They would have blown up their own boat.
@@alexandrelachapelle4232 Ah yes, thanks.
Had not heard the interview.
Makes perfect sense that that was the case.
Fun fact. Nolan gave Heath the camera and told him to record the video however he wanted. The shaky cam video and dialogue were all improvised by the Joker.
the is a hidden villain in this film, the riddler shows up as Colman Reese. Reese wants nothing more than to reveal who the batman truly is, and since his second name is Reece, his name is Mr Reece. Mysteries...
No, Batman meant to go for Rachel. He even said so when Gordon asks who he's going after. The fact he loses control and gets ultra aggressive when Joker lets him know Rachel may die as well and smashes the Joker's face in the glass is why the Joker has a slither of glass to use to take the cop hostage when he is requesting his phone call. It just shows Joker anticipated Batman getting violent and losing control as part of his plan.
The Joker is not THIS joker.
The Joker inspired THIS Joker.
They are different people. Different times.
Joker is the mirror image of Batman, his chaos to the ideal of Batman’s order.
"You complete me" is also a reference to the tom cruise and renee zellweger romantic comedy JERRY MAGUIRE.
Love these beautiful guys, I'm always smiling watching their reactions
Can't wait for you two to watch the third one!!!!
Best reaction channel in the world!!! You have just met the best Joker ! RIP Heath Ledger 👍
REALLY liked your point about the meaning of "you complete me" and him wanting to prove that deep down, everyone's as ugly as the joker...
Dent is the villain Two-Face. It was acid thrown on his face and he had a double personality
Heath Ledger's Joker reminds me of a line from one of my favorite comics, Anthony Jeselnik. "You can hate me. You can hate me and still laugh at me. That's how talented I am." 😂
Recommendation for you to react: Dog Soldiers (2002), great horror movie!
My favorite version of the Joker. R.I.P. Heath Ledger 😢 (He was the actor who portrayed this Joker.
for me, through the years of being a Batman fan (having watched the 60's TV series and having all the toys), the Joker was always interesting, but never scary. Here comes Heath Ledger, and suddenly the Joker is quite scary!
My first time watching. You guys are great. I like how you analyzed it. I missed so much of the little stuff because I was blown away by Ledger's performance. Subscribed!
RIP, Heath Ledger. He posthumously took him the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor
Rest in peace. Gone too soon. :((
Joker: "You see, in their last moments people show you who they really are."
Also Joker: (laughing as he falls to his death).
18:40 ........
-Dent: "I'm the Batman"
-Bale: "No, I'm Batman"
-Affleck: "No, I'm Batman"
-West: "I'm Batman, and so is my wife"
-Keaton: "No, I'm Batman"
-Conroy: "No, I'm Batman"
-Kilmer: "No, I'm Batman"
-Clooney: "No, I'm..."
-Kilmer: "Shut up, George, nobody likes you"
-Keaton: "Yeah, you suck mate, go back to ER"
-Bale: "Don't you have any ice puns there, laddie?"
-Clooney: "Screw you, guys".....
I can keep going on and on with this shit.....XDXD
Katie Holmes (original Rachel) had scheduling conflicts, it's not that they didn't want her back. She had to choose between acting in this movie and acting with her idol Diane Keaton. She chose to act with her idol since it was a once in a lifetime opportunity.
Except Harvey only APPEARED to put away all those criminals without a mask, without batman's HELP, it never would have happened.
This is a major point many people seem to not notice.
It doesn't really COUNT if Harvey wasn't able to it without Batman's behind the scenes help
I am of course comparing this plot point to that of Wagner's Der Ring Des Nibelungen, where the hero SIEGMUND is a SUPPOSEDLY free-willed being, acting on his own, except at EVERY major step of the way, his father, the god WOTAN, is giving him indispensable aid, which of course, completely undermines his supposedly "free" will.
(this is a MAJOR plot point in that story. He is eventually replaced by his son, SIEGFRIED, who is REALLY acting on his own devices, (and is, in a manner of speaking, not so much an agent of the behind-the-scenes manipulators, but more of an anarchist, which does not of course preclude the possibility of him turning against the very behind the scenes manipulators who are hoping he will benefit them...)
To me this is not just another Batman movie. It is THE Batman movie. The plot and storyline have their flaws but the Heath Ledger/Christopher Nolan collaboration that gave us this Joker is absolutely inspired. And nothing else they have ever done with this franchise (or any other movie series based on a comic book, for that matter) comes close to capturing the struggle between pure good and pure evil as well as this one. Unfortunately for the franchise, Heath Ledger being gone and all, they will never be able to come close to duplicating it
I remember seeing this in theaters when I was a kid...that batman/joker interrogation room scene gave me chills...still does
The best of Nolan's trilogy - and for me the 2nd greatest superhero film after the original SUPERMAN - with Ledger's game-changing iconic Oscar-winning role for the ages; you need to see these in IMAX when they ever get re-released guys!
Probably a top 5 Comic movie all time, DC/MCU/Sony/Fox included.
Joker greatest magic trick ever🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Two DC movies that you'll really like: Wonder Woman and Aquaman.
DareDevil is Marvel though. But it's a really good show as well.
Joker was using camcorder. Smartphones were not out in 2008
I like how guys make the movie take up the screen
Joker is asking why Ying and Yang? Batman was tested and that's why he's a hero. And that's why one of the best stories that exist are Batman and Joker.
30:40. In 14 years, you are the first person I've seen immediately realize the possible switch-a-roo of the detonators.
They never actually confirm it, but well done all the same.
I'm pretty sure they both had their own detonators. Otherwise they both can't blow up.
The Joker is such a compelling villain for so many reasons, but mainly because like Alfred said he's just in it for the chaos, and his only goal the whole time was to break Batman
13:53
that's part of what makes Joker a great villain... the spontaneity, the total chaotic behavior.
we're always so used to things making sense.... how do you fight something that doesn't make sense?
Katie Holmes was offerd the part of Rachel again, but she refused and insetad went to make a movie called Mad Money (2008)
Heath Ledger's Joker was the scariest joker in live action .and oddly to me personally the scariest scene was when Batman was beating him up and the joker got pleasure out of it ..just a complete sadistic psychopath
R.I.P Heath ledger he died too soon....and that beating was actualy real the punchs heath told Cristian bale to beat him for real not a fake and he also improvise the hospital scene when the control is broken it was actualy a mal function but they keep filming until the rest of the hospital blows up no cgi true explosives
I never get enough to watch this movie many many times.
You both did a great movie reaction your good at what you both do keep it up. 👍 This is my favorite joker.
Best Dark Knight reaction! Spot on analysis!
He's called the joker because of the way he
Looks. The joker history
is he is a Homicidal Manic
The public to Nolan: "No one can play the Joker after Jack Nicholson's iconic performance"
Heath Ledger: "Hold my dynamite"
GAMEOVER my friend lol quoting Dark Knight in HS every single day
Marian is crying ..this movie is so effective
22:04: the Joker wanted batman to kill him. The reason why is because the Joker was trying to get batman to break his moral code and one rule(The batman doesn't kill anyone). if batman did hit him and kill him, even with the Joker dead, the Joker wins.
Woohoo! Had a long hard day and seeing this uploaded just made it great :)
They offered Katie Holmes (OG Rachel) several times less after she “escaped” Tom Cruise, so she declined to come back. If i remember correct she made 3 million from Batman Begins, but they offered her about 1 million to come back for DKR. I believe the media was weaving the narrative that Katie Holmes was “the crazy one” (not Tom Cruise) so the studio lowballed her to cover their asses in the event she did something crazy and harmed herself.
ALSO, being separated from Tom Cruise, hurt her value to Hollywood and thus lowered her “asking price”
Your review was spot on! You get the nuances really well.
Batman went to save Harvey Dent on purpose. He did not plan on going to save Rachel.
That shows how committed do justice batman is. Saving the city is more important than the love of his life to him. He is not a selfish man. Either way one person will die but one of those ppl can save the city.
Rachel thought he would save her because she knows its Bruce Wayne and thinks because he loves her he will save her. She underestimated how important his goal to save the city is.
Another good DC movie to watch is,
Watchmen. Really good.👍
Love this channel. Keep up the videos! Can't wait to see Dark Knight Rises.
at the time katie holmes was rachael but she was with tom cruise also that time and he pushed her to leave that role. he didnt want her to do dark knight.. fun fact lol
Love your reactions 🙂 do you plan to continue with the "Back to the future" movies? You saw the first one, but they made 3 😉
This was a powerful, intense, DARK! DARK! Movie. Christopher Nolan is masterpiece director! Hanz Zimmer a masterpiece for music score! The Joker was terrifying, I saw The Dark Knight on the big screen in 2008. I was shaking in my seat. I was close to crying when the Joker threatened Rachel with that knife.
Katie Holmes wasn't available for the film. She was already working on another film.
Heath Ledger was the best Joker hands down.
At 4:51, why is she going "did the dog bit him?" and then to, "oh nonono dont hurt the (dog)"??? Damnit is he not allowed to protect himself? Don't hurt he dog when it just hurt him? The fuck are you on about with not hurting the dog, if a dog bites you, are you gonna go "BAD DOG, STOP!" ?????
I wonder if we can have 2 audio channels. One for reaction voices and the other for the movie so people can mute the parts that RUclips doesn't like. And still hear their reactions.
Katie Holmes didn't want to comeback to play rachel
One of the greatest strengths of Chris Nolan films is his casts: he gets the best of the best. Amazing film 🎉
Harvey Dent became Two Face
Enjoyed your reaction here guys. And Joy, you have lovely hair there! 😊
Great reaction can't wait for the third one.
Ledger's clapping was not in the script. Everyone's reaction is genuine.
In the world today we have enemies of 2 different kinds: ones that are normal adverseries and ones who are the primary nemesis.
The nemesis will be the forever opponent in a standoff of "the unstoppable force meets the immovable object".
In the mainstream comics the Joker has taken a personal interest in Batman ever since their first meeting in the Ace Chemical Factory. The unidentified man known only as The Red Hood was coerced into robbing the factory after his wife and child passed on due to labor complications (that's just one account. He has told several different accounts but the only two things that were the same was Batman and the factory).
Anyway, since he had this red bowl over his head he couldn't see where he was going and was running from Batman. He tripped over the ledge, fell into a cat of chemicals and got washed through a drainage pipe.
When he took the bowl off his face looks how it's today. He has no motives: his plots only make sense to him.
I personally think Dark Knight Rises is really good. Most people are trying to compare it to The Dark Knight (arguably the best superhero movie of all time), so I think it is unfair to live up to those expectations, or for any villain to follow Ledger's performance. I think Tom Hardy did a great job

fun fact.. the scene where the joker blew up the hospital and the button didn't work. that really haopens during filming. so he stayed in character and kept hitting the button till ot worked lol
That's a myth. It was supposed to be like that. The director confirmed it.
@@ethancoolbro18gamer86 well look it up again. Cause Joker reaction was real... they delayed the explosion and joker didn't know. So he stayed in character until the bomb people actually press inginate. Soooo you just been fact checked sir.
@@cecilfuentes5435 Nope. Why don't *you* look it up? Christopher Nolan himself confirmed that if was like that in the script. Do you realize that if the explosives didn't go off when he pressed the button then that's bad?
@@ethancoolbro18gamer86 I did and I even posted the link.
@@ethancoolbro18gamer86 put it back together (cause RUclips won't allow links. But Christopher Nolan HIMSELF is saying what I'm telling you
