This wasn't a movie/character meant to start a franchise off of. As much as I'd love to see more of his character, it just wouldn't work in a Batman movie. I think this movie was something more than that. It was a message, portrayed by one of the best comic villains in history. It was executed extremely artistically, and the end result was very profound.

The right hand/left hand thing actually has a tie to the Batman comic books. One issue had Batman and Robin signing autographs. A friend mentioned to Robin that a criminal could use their signatures to compare handwriting and figure out who they were. Robin said that would be impossible because, while Batman and Robin are right handed, they always sign autographs left handed so the letters will be different in style.

Love this movie, it so depicts realities of the 70s and 80s

I don't believe that this is the origin story of the The Joker. The age difference between Bruce and Fleck is just too large of a gap. I think that Fleck was indeed an inspiration for who would eventually become The Joker.

Considering most comic book movies are $200+ million, yeah, that's pretty tight. And Phoenix's pay alone was $4.5 million. Now add in all the other actors, and extras, craft services, director, producers, camera operators, sound people, lighting, paying to close off city blocks for filming, editors, special effects, costume designers, makeup, props, armorer for the guns, safety personnel, stunt coordinators/actors, assistants, janitors, etc....And that's not even close to an exhaustive list of people involved in the making of a movie. A movie that only cost $55 million making over $1 billion is absolutely ridiculous, and so far, it's the only movie ever to do so.

I would imagine someone has already said this but I didn't see it mentioned , might have missed it...but M. Night's "Unbreakable" is the first movie that consists entirely of what is typically the first act in a superhero movie, the origin. The whole movie is an origin story and is still one of the best "superhero" flicks ever made, in my opinion, even though it wasn't based on an existing comic. And what's really great is that it's not only the origin story of the hero but also his nemesis. Good schtuff. (good video, by the way)

Well, actually it seems to me that this movie explores that theme somehow, but not in the most obvious way, which I think is a good thing. There are some scenes that suggest that the Joker is acting solely for us the public in the theater. Try to watch it again as if it was the story that a super-sane Joker is telling us.

awesome awesome video thank you!

The deleted scene with Arthur in the bathtub? He was JOKING off.

What about Venom? That’s an origin story.

What is the music played in the background for this video? It's so gorgeous I can't stop listening

his joke book was his journal

The Batman “easter egg” would have been cool if that was true, it I’m glad he didn’t add that ambulance or any other little thing. This movie was perfect. 10/10. I didn’t know about the left hand thing. Gonna watch it again.

This movie is pure gold, A1 acting

Honestly, this film was a tier above Citizen Kane. It's a groundbreaking film that also creates an inversion of the three act structure, where the Joker reaches his highest point in the second act, when we usually associate the hero being at the lowest point... Except that the Joker is no hero. He's the villain. And we are all too aware of this because the savagery keeps us connected to the horror of what is going on, and instead of the Joker being at his lowest point in the second act, it is us, the audience that is at *our* lowest point, just as the Joker is finally breaking loose. This is, in my opinion, just as groundbreaking as anything done in Orson Welles movie, which explored a thematic journey rather than just another fanciful traipse down treacle lane.

Heard an interview with Tarantino who said if you didn’t see this with an audience, in particular the talkshow assassination scene, you “had a handjob instead of a threesome.” Haha! Damn! Sorry I missed that then. This was ALMOST a Horror flick with that music, the violence, but mostly its menace. I can see why superhero fanboys would find it boring. I thought it was a spectacular Artfilm and the ultimate anti-hero story. It’s “The Shinning” of superhero movies.

Powerful movie.

After my Brain injury I experienced the uncontrollable laughter for about 2 years: I even laughed uncontrollably while my sister and her fiancé were at the Altar saying their wedding vows. 28 years later I still suffer from feeling a strong urge to laugh at the wrong time: but I have learned to get a hold of it.💫

Phenomenal film.

I have heard of the serial killer, John Wayne Gacy, but I never studied him in detail. NEVER would I have thought there was a similarity in my favourite film. Pogo the Clown (John Wayne Gacy), Pogo's Comedy Club, HIS MAKE UP IS SO UNCANNY TO POGO OMG

“I don’t do Easter eggs” “Let’s put the same painting in”

Unbreakable is a origin villain movie so is the birds-of-paradise

It’s a shame we will never see this joker interacting with Batman

If the black lady wasn't such a batch to Arthur, everything would be different

Joker really lives up to his character. of course he is the only comic book vilain to gross a billion dollars

Vincent may not be very good at his job but his willingness to do those jobs is why he was still around. Even amongst criminals,finding people willing to do jobs like Vincent does where extreme violence is needed is not easy. Most people including criminals would have a hard time murdering 3 people they didnt know for something that didnt belong to them. When you do find someone willing to do it and keep his mouth is a very rare you keep them around
