The Joker's got everyone figured out

Can't quite put my finger on it, but the first 15 seconds or so of this clip make me really hate Batman, and sympathize with the Joker.

The Joker just tells it like it is. I don't see everyone's problem with him.

Yup, we all secretly agree with the Joker lolololo


(I realize this is a less-than-serious thread.)

That's because Batman in The Dark Knight was horrible and not really the hero of the story (one of my biggest gripes with the film, as it was touted as a Batman movie). Everyone liked the Joker more in that movie. But in the original movie from the 80s, I was all about Batman. Plus he was sexier than the Joker.

Typical big city liberals from Gotham.

I don't know what to make of what they did on those ships. They didn't do what I would have done, so I'll just begin my thought process with the assumption that there's some sort of conspiracy of phoniness behind it all. I guess I'll just chalk it up to some sort of over-intellectualized theory or reverse psychology bullshit or something. Maybe they just wanted to seem like they were better than me and they wanted to brag about the whole thing later to all their friends at some hipster bar. But they don't deserve any credit, that's for sure.

I liked Batman better when you could understand the words he was saying. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T78lwKBIQYs

And the 1989 batmobile was the best. But at 1:23, how on earth does the hook detach itself from that post so he can keep driving??

Huh? What are you talking about?

I'm not seeing the problem here? He has to be the squeaky-clean hero just cause it's touted as a Batman flick?

Wow, you really had to llamas that up.

I lol'd mightily.

I don't see everyone's problem with him.

I'm down with mass murder too

Hadn't seen this movie since the cinema, Jesus, Christian Bale's Batman voice is awful.

Christian Bale's Batman everything is awful. But yeah, especially the voice.

Huh? No? I didn't say he has to be squeaky-clean... I much prefer movies where the hero is flawed and all that... just didn't feel like a Batman movie, but rather like a Joker movie. Batman didn't even feel like the main character, plus he was annoying.

I lol'd mightily.

I still don't get it... :-/ Lame to make fun of someone and not explain...

Sorry I tried to avoid this thread turning into yet another flame debate with bighead, and instead tried to make it a general conversation about Batman movies?
