This was a Joker joke!

Now, THATS funny!! AhahaHAHAHA!!!!

Right after Alfred gave birth to Robin

To be fair batman did fire a bat rocket at him.

​@@robwright8949 just after Two-face flipped him and landed in his back, ouch!

Don't forget all the ones about animal baiting

And bullying, including cyber bullying. And apparently regicide.

Involuntary manslaughter followed by voluntary manslaughter killed me 😂

@@konnorrockkonnoisseur4970 "Your honor, in all fairness that one was an accident. I had other plans for him."

"Rino-bating, failure to capture Rino" that one sent me and I could just imagine the day that was for Batman.

It's quite horrifying. The idea all of this is true and maybe a part of Joker is reaching out for help but laughs knowing he'll never get it a sick *joke* . Or that he's lying all of it is a lie, just another story or *joke* in a long line of them he tells to manipulate folk or just for his own amusement. The extra indepth details being just being the classic liar trope or him constantly remembering the day.

never imply anything with the Joker... #1 mistake

​@@dannylopez5976 the awnser is joker doesnt actually know he may lie about his past but even if he didnt lie he still couldnt givr a straight awnser. Theres the possibility he was always like this. Which is just as likely as him being a man driven to craziness. However the truth is that there is no explanation for why he is the way that he is he just likes to think he is like batman and the difference is he admits he is crazy. When in reality he is unlike batman. They probably both went through tradgedy but it isnt one bad day that makes a person become evil its not even a week or a year its how a person responds to it. An aspect lost on Batman is kind of The idea batman has moved forward from the trauma. Trauma never goes away because its a feeling of being frozen in time and not moving forward. But batman is somebody who has learned to live with it and move forward even if he still feels frozrn. But regardless the point still stands because bruce took his anger and need for justice to make a difference. The joker wont just admit he is the problem. It doesnt matter if the monster was the man or if he was a man made monster by the point of him being the joker because he himself is unexplainable even to himself theres no way to pin why he creates chaos beyond why he enjoys it. Heath ledger was a fantastic joker but he is more of an interpretation of joker because joker wouldnt flat out explain half of the heaths joker would. Joker sees life as a joke and thats what makes him an agent of chaos he just simply sees it all as a joke to be made fun of. Where batman seee life as valuble and that all life no matter good or bad deserves to live. Joker is the unexplainable chaos to batmans explainable justice. Anyways point being jokers brillaince as a villain comes from the unexplained not the explained. Its why joker 2019 is implied to never of happened.

@@somedorkydude6483Joker 2019 is just a what if

@@reservoirfrogs2177 im aware joker 2019 is its own world but the film still implies it might not of happened

They say thanos only had 2 nightmares. One of Madara Uchiha, and the other..... Was The Joker.

Pretty much every classic character in the Arkhamverse is just the pique of that character (except for bane, they did him dirty)

@@gIyph_and black mask

This mf was doing cannibalism which might be a stretch but knowing joker I believe it

​@@gIyph_origins bane is peak however

what are you talking about btas was dark as fuck

@@jessicapinkman-hd4bw Not like 'shoot people in the head point blank while blood sprays out' dark lol. But yeah it was a gem of a show back then for being a bit more spicy than what we were used to :)

Too bad we won't get his Joker again with Kevin Conroy's passing.

@@jessicapinkman-hd4bwYes it’s a great show and has some very dark moments but it couldn’t get away with the stuff the arkham games could.

⁠​⁠​⁠@@jessicapinkman-hd4bwIt was definitely dark and didn’t treat the audience like dummies but it wasn’t Arkham dark. The Arkham games in a way feel like the more adult sequel to the animated series. Which is pretty damn awesome.

I mean wasn't the 90s show pretty dark

​​@@lightdarksoul2097 It had its dark undertones, but it was still pretty family-friendly

Tbf, family friendly doesnt instantly equal kids show. Like yeah a kid CAN watch it but it's not JUST for kids.

I mean let’s be real Kevin Conroy wasn’t doing much outside of voicing batman so it’s not like he was too busy to do the role

It's almost like a semi-realistic take on the same universe except with one of those Ren & Stimpy 'gross ups'. And don't forget Arleen Sorkin (Harley Quinn) for the first game. Tara Strong took over after that game but they did get her to carry over from the cartoon as well.

With his fear being forgotten that's probably true.

Kind of like Kraven from Spider-Man 2.

Yeah, like improper labeling of meat.

like littering!

​@@Thepenarmy01I mean it wasn't the good meat

Well he mixed acid into holy water which considering that gotham have catharal which mean a catholic population which mean baby batising which mean a death of baby being poured acid on them. Turning a sacred ritual tradition and a sacred places of safety into nightmare fuel horror show.

Yep. Giving toxins to people straight to people's blood streams via doses of his blood is so weird, sadistic and unsanitary there probably isn't a classification for such a thing. He invented a new crime. It's so absurd, I'm laughing while writing this and so shouldn't.

It's leaking 😱

Somewhat appropriate considering the character we’re talking about

Why? What exactly happens there?

@@Gadget-Walkmen chaos

What are they, stupid?

Honestly yeah he does a really great hamill impression while still making the joker a bit of his own

He is one of the best…

Troy got to play a Joker and a Batman

I would love to see Troy do one of the hardest things a VA can do, which is to have an argument with himself. playing as both Joker and Batman.

Playing through Arkham Origins for the first time and God damn, it's fantastic.

I agree and Conroy will always be Batman to me

@Warpded Absolutely, I'd wish they'd made another Alrham Origins around 3 or 4 years later. The universe, in general, is perfect. Every single character I can think of is as fathful to the comics as possible. It's ridiculous how perfect this Batman Universe is.

@@edge1247 Conroy is dead, tragically. It wouldn't be the same. Hell, I liked Arkham Knight so much that I got the 240% completion. If they do ever release a new one it would have to be insanely good.

@edge1247 I still prefer the Joker from Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth...

Mark Hamill's Joker is the best one indeed

I don’t remember him saying bitch, when was that?

@@eddiediaz5518 Oh man, I couldn’t tell you. If not in Asylum then it may have been Arkham City

@@howdy_dave He says “I’M BACK BITCHES” at one point in Assault on Arkham.

Yup, swearing is clearly a sign of maturity 🙃

“But you’ve denied me even that. I have nothing to live for.”

For a bonus, the Joker’s last words in the DCAU (a separate continuity, but still voiced by Mark Hamill and written by Paul Dini) are “That’s not funny!”

*that actually is, pretty funny

In my opinion, he already knows that.

@@gelchert That's not funny at all!...

In the french version he says "c'est a mourir de rire" which can be traduct by "it's to die of laughter," which is a very common expression to say that something is very funny. And then he dies. Much more fitting and impacting to me

He’s proof that in the hands of a good writer even a purely evil villain doesn’t have to be generic and boring. In fact I think he works best as a monster. I don’t Like how joker has become the “we live in a society” guy almost like he’s some anti authoritarian anti hero. No joker should only be focused on trolling Batman and having fun at Gotham’s expense.

The *only* other person who knows the steps to this beautiful Danse Macabre!

Judging by four actors playing him live all have had different emphasis dictated by tone of their stories. Cesar Romero was silly fool in show that was deliberately silly. Jack Nicholson was gimmicky gangster in anachronistic film noir-setting. Heath Ledger was anarchist terrorist going against Order represented by Batman and before that he already targeted organized crime of Gotham as well. Joaquin Phoenix made Joker a cult leader capable of bringing out worst impulses from people. They all are Joker viewed from different angle. In my view Joker should always be a mystery. Who he was is not important even if viewer knows it. He is also very unpredictable as he might reappear only to vandalize schoolgirl uniforms with stylized graffiti of his face or he might reappear in audience of live comedy show and gun down comedians as light form of heckling.

This is the tragic love story Batman movie we need as a society.

Until you play Knight and it's revealed Joker's motivation all along was just to be remembered, recontextualizing all his crimes as a desperate desire for fame. Super lame.

@@HOTD108_ It makes sense/aligns with Joker’’s character. Think about it, Joker committed the most vile, disgusting, and evil crimes in all of human history, terrorized the citizens of Gotham for decades, filled entire graveyards, yet none of that matters because he’ll just be a bad memory. A relic of the past. Joker’s always loved being in the limelight, loved being feared, so again the notion that he’ll end up being forgotten is terrifying to him.

@@HOTD108_bad take

While I wasn’t the biggest fan of Tim Burton’s _Batman_ giving the Joker a definitive origin, depicting him as already being a sociopathic killer before his accident was a smart move. All falling into a vat of chemicals and going insane really did to Jack Napier was free him up to be much more creative in his cruelty.

@@gelchert haven’t seen that but I definitely appreciate the angle the film took

@@gelchertI think this makes a ton of sense… I do think something traumatic happened to the Joker at some point and he broke bad, Joker is super intelligent, hence he can make up believable origin stories like nothing, but I do think something really tragic happened and Joker lost it and became Batman’s biggest and most dangerous foe (who would leave Batman alive but kill Alfred for the fun of it)

So essentially, he’s kind of like jack Torrance from the shining

it'd also explain why the Joker is kind of frustrated and amused with Batman, cus Bruce did have a horrible day when his parents were killed, because he can be a playboy millionaire and philanthrope getting all the attention in the world. Because despite how intelligent, powerful and smart Batman is, he choses to be a vigilante of few words, acting when and where nobody can see him, because he wants no attention or fame and because the Joker knows better the real Bruce is Batman, not his playboy persona.

a little bit of a stretch but ok

*Mark

There have been great performances as joker! Ceaser, Jack and of course Heath! But Mark Hamil IS THE JOKER!!! He is my favorite villain, and in my opinion is one of if not the greatest villain, no matter the medium! The animated series is one if the best cartoons and Hamil kills it.But it's not just that, whenever I read the comics, or think about the joker he has Hamils voice. If you haven't seen Mask of the phantasm do yourself a favor and watch it! It is surprisingly adult( let's be honest the series was too) it allowed Hamil to go darker, and he kills it. Then after the Arkham series sealed it for me! Sorry for lengrh, nerded out about the Joker, I mean Mark Hamil

I would make the argument that he's more famous now for being Joker's voice actor than he is for being Luke Skywalker. Despite the fact that I'm sure a ton of people still don't know it's the same person.

@@Stand_By_For_Mind_Control Absolutely! Couldn't agree more.

Such a shame that will never get to see him play the role in live action, especially considering how I could totally see him pulling it off.

scarcrow professor pyg and the joker are probably the most evil batman villains in the games

Plus, Scarecrow managed to exposed Batman's identity in public.

@@tunebeat3809 Bruce did that on purpose

More Evil then Joker

@@MistahJay7Scarecrow pushed him to do so though. Without scarecrow and his evil plan = batman not taking his mask off

Most people spend over a decade on death row, Gotham villains would've escaped way before then. I think a more realistic version would be villains dying at the hands of some random civilian who was tired of their reign over gotham.

@@cybercore1629 That or gunned down 'escaping' custody. It is long established that much of the Gotham PD is corrupt, and you cannot tell me that a corrupt cop wouldn't just straight up execute the Joker and then call it in as a suicide or any number of other things.

@@MagicalMaster There’s an excellent Batman fan film from last year called _Gordon_ that takes that idea and runs with it. (Bonus points for getting Mark Meer, AKA Commander Shepard, to play the Joker.)

Especially as he gradually slips into the trademark Vile Eye voice.

tbf this is a jonkler video so it's only fitting to include jokes in it

yeah a big part is the tone these videos set, it was a good joke but let's keep it og

Gotta throw in Vladimir Makarov as well.

Eh, i mean I guess he was a character? CoD didn’t really TRY to make deep characters even when it was good. This isn’t Metal Gear or Yakuza or even Halo. Those games are about narrative and characters. CoD was always about the action, the experience. It never went all-in on what war does to a person like Metal Gear or Spec Ops: The Line did.

@@2yoyoyo1Unplugged On the surface sure, but both MW and MW2 and to a lesser extent MW3 (Classics) despite its crazy OTT action did paint Shepard as having a strong motivation for his actions from his loss of the men in the nuke in MW, along side the sub plots of how the CIA fully supported the killings of no russian just to get makarovs trust and how russia despite knowing what happened at the airport and how it was all down to makarov, went along with the war anyway as thier people demanded blood. Its shows that its hillariously an anti war game that masquerades as a straight shooting Hoo rah romp. The undertones of MW is that the world is a savage place, ready at any point to start killing each other no matter the reason or the cost, Lies spread like wildfire and people will easily demand the head of people they dont even know for reasons they dont understand. The opening line of 3 wasnt just there for cool factor "All warfare is based on deception and all it takes is a will of a single man". I think with the context of the unverse in mind, shepard could make an intresting video if done right.

This is by far -one of- the best versions of Joker. Fixed it for you :)

​@@gIyph_ Arkham games in general are the perfect interpretation of Batman for me. Everything from The Batman, the villains, the mythos, atmosphere... Spot on. It's really sad that instead of continuation of the Batman lore we got this Sucide Squad game...

@@stefanmladenovic5583 i wouldve been sooooo fucking hyped to see an arkham style justice league game, where each hero has a similarly complex and varied playstyle as batman had in knight that you couls switch between freely, with braniac as the villain still even

@@gIyph_ Right? I would be satisfied with just one hero, like a superman game, or the wonder woman game that's coming out. But yeah if they somehow managed to make a justice league game that would have been amazing! Why oh why have they decided to go in this direction instead... I mean a Suicide squad game is a great idea, but not like this...

Yeah, they retconned how Joker's blood worked in Arkham Knight. In Arkham City, it was just a deadly poison that was caused by the TITAN chemicals mixing with the ACE chemicals in his bloodstream. It became so bad that anyone who was infected would be dead in less than 12 hours. In Arkham Knight, it became a mutated prion infection, specifically a form of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, and started turning people into Joker knockoffs. Keep in mind that these people should've already been dead because they still had TITAN in their system. Also, I don't know why Batman bothered trying since Mr. Freeze made it clear that manufacturing the cure wasn't the problem. It was the cure breaking down before it did its job that was the issue.

Been requesting a video on Fisk for well over two years now.

Kingpin from Daredevil and Jigsaw/Billy Russo from Punisher

@@LedZedd Ooooo Billy would be a great pick for this series as well.

"Let me show you what three hundred pounds of FAT are capable of..."

I say hands down the best version closest to the comics brought to media. He's a monster that is also hilarious. No other Joker can make me laugh and be horrified like Mark Hamills

It's the Canon version of the Joker to me

@@MistahJay7 couldnt agree more! 🃏

Is there a lore reason you screamed? Were you scared?

And Batman

Same

I pretend he doesnt exist. Thats not the joker thats jared leto on crack

​​@@rs07scapeNewsDCAU is the DC Animated Universe. I assume the comment is referring to the Timverse joker (Batman the animated series and Batman Beyond) Not suicide squad, yuck.

@@rs07scapeNews You’re thinking of the DCEU Joker. I’m talking about the DC Animated Universe Joker 🃏

@@rs07scapeNews AU NOT EU

To be honest, Vincent is more a villain than Catherine. If you don't cheat, you should be more than fine.

@@Emma-Queenofhell Still, Catherine and the others are outright scheming demons or gods who have no problem dooming innocent but misguided individuals in the Nightmares and I think exploring their motives, personalities, and stories would be very interesting.

Officer Balls.

I'd be kinda curious to see that

I would add Harley Quinn on the list too she's as equally as evil as Joker though maybe a little less also she's one of the most pure evil versions of the character
