The Dark Knight Joker Quotes in TDK

The Why so Serious story is still my favorite line and scene from the movie right now, but upon further review, a very close second is his speech with Harvey in the Hospital, in particular once he grabs his arm and starts being serious. When he says "I'm an agent of chaos", at that point, you f***in' believe it!
 
Gordon: "Where is he?"
Joker: "Whats the time?"
Gordon: "Why does that matter?"
Joker: "Well.........depending on the time, he could be in one place, or several."

"Introduce a little anarchy... coz the thing with anarchy is.... its fair."

At that point he has Harvey hooked. Poor Harv. "The joker chose me!!!!"

This may be off topic but the one scene I cant help but laugh at is where Harv is interrogating Thomas Schiff and Batman comes along. Batmans husky lisp almost makes it impossible to understand what he's saying
"Yuhr va beacon ohf light Ie courd nevehr be... If anybody evehr fownd out abowt thish then evewryfing wurd be unduhn. All the criminalsh you put away wurd be realeashed..." etc
I just thought that was kinda funny.

Me too. That's the thing that bothered me about the film. Bruce Wayne overdid on the Batman voice. Too much lisp.
 
This is hilarious! I read half way through the thread and saw the argument about "six" or "ten." I go to the last page and it's still going on! :lmao:

For what it's worth---he says "six." He's tickled that he killed that many. My closed caption says "mouths six."

Now, back to that dead horse...
 
I disagree. I hated his bat-voice in begins, but his bat-voice in TDK was much better. The way he said the line 'you either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain' was so much cooler than when Dent said it. (It sounded campy and cheesy as hell when Dent said the line)
 
*The Joker gets a switchblade in Gambol's mouth- SHARP METAL
PULLING THE CHEEK TAUT. The Bounty Hunters subdue the
remaining bodyguards.*

Wanna know how I got these scars?
My father was a drinker and a
fiend. He'd beat mommy right in
front of me. One night he goes off
crazier than usual, mommy gets the
kitchen knife to defend herself.
He doesn't like that.
Not. One. Bit.

*The Joker TUGS Gambols cheek with the blade.*

So, me watching, he takes the knife
to her, laughing while he does it.
Turns to me and says 'why so
serious?' Comes at me with the
knife- 'why so serious?' Sticks
the blade in my mouth- 'Let's put a
smile on that face' and...

*The Joker looks up at the ASHEN FACES of the remaining Body
Guards. Smiles.*

Why so serious?
Best damn scene in the film. Ledger's acting is incredible.
 
'You..you just couldn't let me go, could you? This is what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object. You truly are incorruptible, aren't you? You won't kill me because of some misguided sense of self-righteousness. And I won't kill you because you just too much fun. I believe you and I are destined to do this forever.'

Did you guess catch the irony in that last sentence?

He never says "he beat mommy right in front of me" did you make that up?

I just copied and pasted straight from the script. There was lots that they changed. Especially the prologue-type scene.
I was hoping someone would notice :)
