The Joker Origin Story (Part 1) Batman: The Killing Joke (Flashback Scene)

This house is the exact same house that batman and the joker fought in at the end of the movie

Bad people,carry a bad past with themselves.

This poor guy. Jack needs a better life.

This scene hits deep man. Jokers backstory just feels so realistic and relatable in real life. So sad man

If you skip the entire Batgirl subplot, this is actually a good movie.

This was a callback to a Golden Age story in which Joker reveals that he was a criminal called the Red Hood.

Can relate

The way his voice changes when he says “She hates me”.

Mark Hamill is truly one of a kind, capturing the vulnerable human side of the character and then the sinister tone underneath that is the Joker.

He had a choice and the choice he made ruined him

The atmosphere of this scene is magnificent. Without the connection to Batman, you'd think that you were watching a Film Noir movie. Speaking of which, I love that you can hear bits and pieces of the Joker in his voice. It's the little details, man.

For my DC Universe fanfiction, Joker's backstory will combine elements from The Killing Joke, the DCAU, the 1989 film, the 2008 novel, and the 2019 film. For starters, his real name will be Jack Napier, (as it should be) and like his '89 and DCAU counterparts, he'll be a mob hitman. The justification for why no one (even the GCPD or Batman) figures out his real identity is because Jack erased all records of his family history before the incident at Ace Chemicals. Likewise, Gotham PD won't have any DNA records on him because he always managed to avoid capture during his small-time mob days, along with the fact that the chemicals altered and corrupted his DNA. So while Jack Napier is his real name, due the fact that he erased it, he'll be free to operate under a number of aliases.

This and The Dark Knight Returns are both top 10 movies

After watching this it kinda becomes hard to picture Joker as evil

I like this story better than joker movie of 2019. Mark Hamill delivers this scene so much dramatic and more serious.

This movie wasted a lot of dramatic potential for these flashback scenes only for having Batman's Batmobile get in and out of Batgirl's garage 😒

Most DC villains have sad backstories for example penguin was bullied because of his nose his father hated him of course the nose and many other DC villains backstories most DC villains where just tortured souls i think im gonna cry

The only woman joker ever loved

This is like when you find a really funny joke on the internet. But when you try to tell it back at your friends they don't laugh and roast you.
