The Dark Knight Epitome Scene for Joker?

[Doug]

What scene did you think eptimized the Joker as the comic book joker.

For me it was him in the building at the end with the Dogs protecting him.

That for me really put the final touch that this was indeed the comic book joker.

my brother helped me write this...

 

[TheDarkKnight08]

Interrogation scene all the way. Not just for Joker but how, even with a few minutes together, this'll probably be the closest to Batman and Joker relationship from the comics as we'll be for a long time.

 

[(S)laughter 99]

That's an easy one!!
The Pencil Trick!!
At that point I knew they had done the Joker right: laughing and acting eccentric and jovial one moment. Slamming a dude's eye into a pencil for the punchline to a "magic trick" joke the next.
Totally Joker!!!!

 

[Shane Diesel]

All of them epitomized the Joker. The robbery showed his intelligence, the pencil trick showed his homicidal humor, the video showed his warped sadism, the interrogation showed his philosophy, etc.

 

[TLH]

His speech while hanging upside down.

 

[Dark Globe]

The one where he's walking down the street, skipping towards batman.

 

[CashforStash]

Every scene mixed it all together for the ending to create "The Joker".

 

[darknight7]

Well it is tough to say ONE scene...so let's narrow it down to 3 (1 being the MOST and 3 being the LEAST):

1. Interrogation - The speech, the way he egged on Batman, the laughing while taking a beating...
2. Whenever he was broadcasting LIVE on T.V.
3. The scene where he kills gamble and than tells the other guys that there is room for "agressive expansion"

The end when he is hanging from the rope spilling his guts to Batman. Especially when he quotes the whole, "you and I are destined to do this forever."

 

[SuperZer0]

Everything that was said, I agree.

But, I also thought the car chase scene with the Joker shooting with his guns and the Bazooka is pure Joker. Also, the scene where the Joker is driving the Truck and is all happy, that was kinda funny and pure Joker too.

 

[Fanticon]

the entire meeting with the mob bosses scene...he shows up, gets their attention, kills a guy, wages war on batman, insults them and taunts them...all in less than 5 mins. classic.

 

[Iglius]

The scene where Batman gives him his scars with his ziplines.

 

[DieSmiling]

His speech while hanging upside down.

I agree. In terms of replicating Joker from the comics, that was just about perfect.

"I think you and I are destined to do this forever..."

My favorite Joker scenes were the stories about his scars though... So awesome.

 

[The Joker]

The interrogation room scene. From listening to Joker spewing out his insane logic, to him laughing hysterically as Batman hit him repeatedly in anger.

Pure Joker.

 

[ospumas1]

When he explains why he uses a knife

 

[Dr. Crane]

thats the best part about it... Nolan and ledger did their homework...

all the scenes are great.. thinking about it.. i don't think there is a scene where the joker isn't spot on... it has to be one of the best villain portrayals ever... comic or not.. now being from source material.. it will be hard to top..

and don't take anything away from Aaron... they did an amazingly great job with two-face as well .. they were both done so well..

my favorite shot is still the one with joker hanging out of the window of the police car.. no words, hardly any music.. just the wind going through his hair... awesome.

Can you back up this opinion, please?

Can you back up this opinion, please?

No need to.

This isn't the thread to break off into a Joker debate.

Stay on topic please

 

[The Joker]

Stay on topic please

Translation: I cannot, because it's not really true.

Thanks, donk

[p4poetic]

Every scene he's in. Sorry, I can't just pick one.

If I was forced to choose, it'd be a toss up between the twos scenes with Batman; the interrogation scene coupled with the ending.

[Hobgoblyn]

I'll do the opposite for you..
An extremely cool scene that seemed to be to be totally against the typical character of the comic book joker was when he was shooting at everything but Batman and held his arms out "hit me... hit me!!... come on, I want you to... HIT ME!!"

Yeah, it was very, very cool, very, very creepy and quite good-- but it seems to be from everything I have ever seen about the character that is the exact OPPOSITE of what he tends to say to Batman.

 

[MessyPandas]

When hes hanging upside down and hes in a fit of laughter. That one shot where he swings back and submerges into the night, really summed up how truly demonic and possessed he is.
