It's more because he KNEW he couldn't beat him in a physical fight

Well, it's The JOKER 😆 And let be honest, there's no way he stand a chance against Batman.

,,,,,,.....and Batman is more youngest than The Joker , but well joker is the most supervillain has no need superpowers ! He would be a genius of crime, electric traps and bombs!!

That's the Joker what did you expected?

@@JohnDoe-gk7ok Ledger had comedy bro it was there in the way he walked and did stuff like grab hand santizer, he made a few jokes but most of it was physical comedy. I mean Jack REALLY had a TON of jokes so yeah.

@boulderguy888 why? Hamill's (in TAS) was an evil mobster turned madman. Pure evil. Kevin Michael Richardson's Joker is just insane. He's my second favorite. My first is Cameron Monaghan.

Hi my love

To be fair, ledger joker did admit his jokes weren't so good during his entrance

Im the 666th like

that's why he's my favorite Batman.

He is my favourite Batman and it was his idea to have a different voice as Batman.

😸😸😸

yep when you think about it he doesnt really need to speak at all and when he does he does so in a way where you barely recognize his voice

@@TheReelDealFilmReviews 🎞️

Him and Kevin Conroy. Soothing

​@@zevin_actionmantrue lol

The funny thing is keaton invented the interpretation

Batman actually did speak mostly in a deep grumbly voice in the movie. But Keatons voice in here was his Bruce Wayne voice as he revealed he's the son of Thomas and Martha Wayne, whom Joker killed.

@@tobyforrester He certainly did not. Maybe a little deep, but Keaton has a smooth voice.

yes, that was PURE GOLD. This entire confrontation and beatdown was EPIC...Hands down. Love the joker's groan of pain when batman upper cuts him in the gut LOL. And Batman's condescending smirk when he tells the joker before hand that "I know you did, I know you tried."

The hammer of justice doesnt discriminate.

Jack Nicholson In My Opinion, Best Portraying The Joker.

@@sallymiller9147 I agree 😂😂😂

Haha

Bingo. And he does know that's why he says "I was only a kid when I killed your parents"....

Plus adding to the fact that Bruce used the phrase "You ever dance in the pale moonlight?" Given how Jack says he says that to all his "prey" I think that short exhale and his questioning at 1:00 must be Jack putting the pieces together.

YES!@@skepticcritic4995

My favourite movie. Since 1989 when I was three. Never put this together somehow.

i read he took inspiration from the old dracula movie

@Joel Johnson Phoenix's joker wasn't funny at all the guy was extremely depressing. And on top of that I didn't see anything that made him stand out as a super criminal except for being s*** on by society. Nicholson Jokers attributes... science, chemistry, and art. Heath ledger's attribute able to form a plan on top of a plan on top of a plan. Phoenix attributes heavily medicated, and extremely depressing.

Lmao

“Feel free to drop in…”

He did some Three stooges reference. Batman only punched him because he hates him. Places to get even with him.

Changed his voice even 😂😂😂

And that's the rule you have to break!

WHICH IS?!

@@MDMcNugget "The only sensible way to live in this world is without rules. And tonight you're gonna break your one rule."

I’m considering it.😡

Ben Batfleck: *what rule?*

You IDIOT! You made me. Remember? You dropped me into that vat of chemicals. That wasn't easy to get over, and don't think that I didn't try.

This was personal tho

He fit the original Batman that wasn’t afraid to put those down who needed to be put down. It’s a different interpretation and I love it, we can’t always have the same “I don’t kill” Batman or it’ll get stale. Many say “well you don’t understand the character!” He changed and everything always does so enjoy what you can and have fun

Considering Batman almost kills Joe Chill in every adaptation where they meet, combining Chill with Joker means Batman doesn't feel any guilt about smiting Joker in this continuity.

@@Gogetta80 not at all, Burton didn't knew too much about Batman and his comics, so he had to read atleast a few comics, like Killing Joke and a few 70s Batman's comics

Yeah I was wondering what he meant? He doesn’t know that Bruce Wayne is Batman. But here he clearly acts like he knows the exact parental double murder he’s referring to. It’s also not credible that he was a mobster that killed many parents BEFORE he became joker.

I always thought Joker had realised Batman is Bruce Wayne, since Batman said the same line back to him that Joker had said to Bruce. I see now that he may not have known, remembering that after he said it to Bruce, he then said "I always say that to all my victims"

He was 26 when he killed Bruce's parents.

Bob didn’t know who Bruce Wayne was at first referring to him as “some guy named Wayne.” Bruce Wayne being a high profile billionaire in Gotham and Bob didn’t know who he was? Lol

​@@cyrus7241 I believe initially the Joker was unaware of who Batman was or what he was talking about but likewise put two and two together to remember the wealthy couple young Jack Napier shot in cold blood as a low-level street hood and connected mafioso associate up and coming decades before he worked his way up the ladder in the Gotham City mafia crime syndicate run by late former Don Carl Grissom and became a made man/member, high ranking mafioso soldier, pro hitman, top enforcer and underboss under Carl Grissom years after Jack Napier shot the Waynes in front of eight year old Bruce Wayne. When the Joker said, "I was just a kid when I killed your parents, " I believe the Joker realized that both Bruce Wayne was Batman and that Bruce/Batman was the orphaned sole surviving child of the wealthy couple Jack and his accomplice mugger, Joe Chill, the triggerman in the Wayne murders in the comics and Nolan's Dark Knight remake trilogy, but a mere accomplice mugger and low-level street thug and associate to Jack in Burton's original 89 Batman.

Except this has nothing to do with Batman canon and contradicts his character is a peaceful, non-revenge oriented hero

Actually, it is very accurate to Batman canon. This is INCREDIBLY close to many of his characterizations in the comics, and I would never call Batman "peace-loving" necessarily. He protects the innocent & helpless, but quite literally "wars" on all criminals.

No, dummy... He made Batsy. So many idiots liked your peasant mind. No surprise. Most ppl are pea brained. 😒

but it wasn't Joker who killed Bruce's parents, it was Joe Chill, total different person.

Its certainly super strength.

Well- shooting his old boss dead (Carl Grissom) and a few minutes later planning that the city "got a load of him" seems to me a hard start after all, so I don't think that he grows more and more insane. I think that he always remains the same.

@@Alantheleopard I mostly mean in the way that in a lot of it he’s charismatic, calmed and occasionally laughs a bit, but getting into the end here, he just loses all composure and starts cackling like Vincent Price in Thriller, particularly when he’s hanging off the side of the tower.

@@Gogetta80 yeh I always thought for such a perfect film killing the joker off was pretty dumb, there was easily enough room for a second movie to culminate a second sensational episode of the two foes.

Believe me, I laughed to that as well. The way Joker reacted when his fist meets armor... Priceless.

Grotesque* ..not a gargoyle.

Nostalgia glasses. I saw this at the drive-in and thought it could be better. I liked it, but didn't love it.

💯💯💯💯

I first watched this when I was a kid and it was on VHS. Before I only had Batman Forever to go by as well as the 60s TV series and the 90's animated series. So I had no idea Batman was supposed to be dark and scary. Needless to say I liked it better.

It was truly incredible. I must have been in 4th grade. My parents were into it. Everyone was into it. My parents didn't read comic books growing up. It was Michael Keaton as batman and Jack Nicholson as the joker. No one was going to miss out on it.

@@bigd7696 splish splash, your opinion is trash

He's had enough of Joker's bullshit: realizing Joker killed his parents, tried to poison Gotham, stole his girlfriend, hired goons to kill him... I love Burton's Batmen (1989 and 1992)

That's why it was so powerful. Batman has a strict code and disciplines himself with how he deals with criminals. With the Joker, there were no rules. The Joker was the be-all-and-end-all of his pain. End The Joker and free the world from torment.

But did killing Joker truly end Bruce's pain. You can tell in some of the other films that in some ways, he's haunted by what he did, he feels some semblance of shame for taking it that far and that's why he became more disciplined and never went for the kill again.

His motive is also scarier. Heath Ledger's Joker mostly killed mob members and high-profile individuals. Jack Nicholson's Joker kills anybody and everybody he wants!

@@casesoutherland4175 poisoning Gotham will always be more frightening to me over bombing things and telling people you’re going to do it. Ledgers plans we’re brilliantly scary but I prefer Nicholson overall

@@casesoutherland4175he also killed mobs you dum dum

TDK is overrated crap, this movie is far superior in every way including the script.

Batman 89 IS the Definitive Batman movie. Period. TDK, as much as i adore those movies, would be nothing without it.

My guess is on that part, joker somehow figured out that Batman is Bruce Wayne when he said, "how childish can you get?"

@@JohnDoe-tm9wz I wouldn’t say overrated. This Batman is still my favorite to this day but the Dark Knight is a damn good movie and deserves to be called one of the best I’d say, this again coming from someone who prefers the Keaton duelogy, The Batman, and even Batman forever over it

​​@@a.j.bandido8739Right. Burton's Batman set the standard releasing the Bat from the silver screen to the big one. All the modern Batman movies originate on Batman and Batman Returns.

Technically Leto is the most original take.

DatDumbDude please read a comic book or something, Jacks joker and Mark hamills are the most and close to the originals

@@mineralgrey8332 I said technically. Thanks for assuming I'm some five year shit that knows nothing. Point out a joker that's exactly like Leto.

DatDumbDude theirs none because Letos is alternative Cinematic universe, and theirs a comic book with Letos portrayal that no ones knows about because that Joker is literally a joke. Leto’s Joker is an embarrassment.

People don't give enough credit to Keaton's acting ability in these films. Not every Batman has to scream and yell to be intimidating. Often, it has the opposite effect.
