We've been talking a LOT about the Joker lately, but today we are shifting focus to a different version of our smiling bad guy. The Heath Ledger version of the Joker from Christopher Nolan's Batman movie, The Dark Knight. I rewatched it recently and started to wonder, have we misunderstood this story the whole time? Could the Joker actually be the HERO of Gotham City, not Batman? We shall see, Theorists!

Considering the jokers scars are likely a result of combat. Not because of a drunk father or self inflicted for his wife. His ability to tactically plan out operations , knowledge with weapons , explosives and ability to drive a large truck which requires experience and normally a CDL to be capable of . All points to a veteran who came home to find his home being controlled by thugs and mobsters with corrupt officials turning a blind eye to the problems. His wife he speaks of likely killed herself or was killed for outstanding debts to the scum of Gotham. That is likely what set an otherwise peaceful veteran off. And created this version of the joker. As he seems to have nothing but hate and disdain for thugs and mobsters . His actions show this throughout the movie.

@4eyesinthecorner399
@4eyesinthecorner399 Рік тому
Well this just makes so much sense and gives me even more reason to love the joker as a “villain”. These kind of superhero stories have always irritated me in that the “hero” spends their time fighting crime and putting the bad guys in jail when there’s generally a much larger underlying reason for such crime in the first place. They have all of the resources and means to be able to eradicate crime from the bottom up but get fixated on the more surface level petty crimes that they don’t see the big picture. This take on the story where the joker is actually the “hero” perfectly reflects a lot of the pretences and issues in our society. Also, it totally makes sense to call the joker a consequentialist in his beliefs rather than just a crazy man who’s sole goal is chaos (though there’s no denying that he isn’t entirely sane). We even studied scenes of this film when doing a lesson about utilitarianism is religious studies.

Imagine a sophisticated A.I. forecasting system that's connected to swaths of personal data and financial records. You ask it to solve a problem that nobody's been able to so far, like 'saving Gotham' or whatever. What do you think the probability is that it would suggest a plan of action that wasn't so completely bonkers that nobody's tried it, before? If anything, what we've learned here is that nurse cosplay is an undeniable force to be reckoned with. Alternating between that and evil clown make-up just kicks it up to 11.

So he’s saying he knows he’s the villain. Maybe in a broader sense the Joker really is just an extremely ill man and Batman can’t kill him because he’s morally opposed to killing an ill person, but no effort to lock him up works, and this quote is his acknowledgment that he’s the villain because he’d rather save his own conscious by not killing the Joker, which thereby allows many people to get hurt as a result.

exactly, Joker is not an agent of chaos or even "not afraid of death" he just wants others to think that he is. This is how he is able to get out of the mob meeting because everyone there thinks that Joker is crazy and will not mind killing himself with them. He created a reputation for himself so everyone thinks of him a certain way to distract from his actual plan (First impression is the last impression). People to label things a certain way so as to not spend mental energy thinking about it, and everyone thinks of Joker as the crazy person who is just doing it for the lols (what Alfred and Bruce think of Joker) and because of this categorization he never acts the way people expects him to, he seems chaotic.

I think you missed the most important part. The Ferries, i think that was the ultimate test for Joker to see if the city was worth saving. If either ferry blew up, it meant the people of Gotham had been corrupted and Joker would've probably given up and let Batman take him into custody with Harvey killing Gordon's family and effectively plunging the city into chaos. Joker let Batman know because the ferries reaffirmed the idea the city could be fixed. Like in Joker's "Everybody loses there minds" speech the idea is that Gotham should fundamentally realize the weight of every single life, from the gang bangers to soldiers. The message in the ferry scene is that the lives aboard are equal regardless if your a petty criminal or a scared civilian. The Joker's line about liking knifes because it allows the Joker to be more intimate with his victim then a gun, he understands the purpose and weight of every single murder he commits.

It makes so much sense what joker was trying to do. He was actually doing everyone a favor. He got rid of the mob and their money, got rid of the corrupted hierarchy, and broke Batman’s ideology. Batman was the cancer joker was trying to exterminate as prove that everyone can change no matter what you believe in or who you are. In the end they were all helping each other without knowing it.

The Joker in this is like a Nihilist with too much fire power. If you notice he has a pretty stable moral code that he sticks to, basically he thinks everyone is capable of the same evils and everyone is only one situation from doing unspeakable things i.e. the boat scene where they'd try to blow one up.

Slight problem, he explicitly says he only burned his half of the money. He didn't bankrupt the mafia, not even close. Also batman doesn't retire at the end of this film he retires at some other point within the eight years in between films, he's still clearly active at the end of the film.

@@Cajek2 he's not responsible for the crime, only the escalation of it. Even in the comics whenever Batman's villains have a meet up they OFTEN talk about how the only reason they have gone as far with their evil plans is because batman pushed them to that degree of desperation. An example, at one point Mr. Freeze tried to freeze the world as part of a larger scheme... he stated he only attempted that because he knew batman would stop him (because deep down he knows the implication would be dire for humanity and he is not really a "bad guy morally") and that his "real goal" was just to secure stolen funding/materials along the way to keep his wife alive... which he also accomplished. In that same comic poison ivy remarks that while she's tried multiple times to wipe out humanity to make room for her plants she'd ideally be willing to settle if humanity would just stop destroying the rain forests/polluting and allowed her to grow plants capable of defending themselves there. Since she knows batman will stop her anyway she feels pressured to step up her threats so that people take her message seriously should she ever HAPPEN to win.

This theory is nice cause it adds a level of dignity to his already awesome legacy. Besides Joker he had such a diverse and dynamic acting career, I don’t mean to digress but I loved him as Casanova. But personally he was the Joker I was exposed to, grew up with and I’m grateful. That talented man gave this character his all and it shows, absolutely amazing performance and wonderful theory. Also I’m glad you hired the man who made that popular theory. I love seeing my boys cop the bag, hope y’all are doing well.

@nikkinewbie6014

Yeah - that Dude at the beginning is like “My dogs are hungry!” Part of Joker’s world view is that people have a dog eat dog mentality. Joker set out to prove that people will destroy others to protect their own best interests and there is no social responsibility to community. Batman’s / Bruce’s contention is that there are still good people in Gotham - like the vast MINORITY 😕 of the Gothamites on the boat that voted against blowing up the criminals. And there are some good police as Gordon remains unfailingly selfless throughout the Trilogy. There’s also the scene where Joker threatens to cut that same mobster up into little pieces and feed him to his hungry pooches which again signifies the point that the dogs will not be loyal to their master when push comes to shove. It’s a pretty descriptive graphic 😳. One wonders if he did exactly that. Either way, Joker has those dogs working for him at the end in the skyscraper when he sics them on Batman. Even the police have their dogs that chase Batman after he tells Gordon to “call it in”. At that point I’m reminded of exactly what you said about Joker comparing himself to a dog chasing cars - so it’s almost like the Joker is personified by those police dogs which have switched loyalties like their masters as they chased Batman to his Batpod - and into that eight year long retirement. Joker won. Yeah Nolan has a whole “dog eat dog / there’s no such thing as real, lasting loyalty” motif going on in this movie. It’s brilliant because humanity already accepts that a dog can be and most often is the MOST unquestionably loyal form of life on the planet - but you have the Joker subverting that idea and putting humanity on trial by saying we’re no better than a pack of hungry dogs. So why should Batman be putting himself out for Gotham? That’s what Joker is basically saying to him in the interrogation room at MCU.

Honestly I'm gonna say this theory might actually be better than the movie itself Like having a twist that the Batman is the evil one it's a type of story I like I've grown up watching Batman And I've very few times been surprised by scary movies regular movies I could predict movies that I know nothing about see a little bit of a movie and predict the ending so this theory is actually amazing and I love it it actually brought a smile to my face thank you
