ON THE JOKER'S DEATH in B89:
I remember when they first announced, maybe before even, "Batman Begins" was coming out that Jack was interviewed about being Joker. They asked him if he would ever play Joker again if asked. Jack responded with something like, "Oh yeah, I have even sat down and thought of ways to bring him back. If everything was right I would play Joker again, he was my favorite character. I have thought of plenty of ways to make him survive that fall."
Thing is I never heard of any of the ways Jack would have let Joker survive. He was so into it that lol, thinking he would be asked again. I remember right after B89 came out that EVERYONE was like, "No, Joker will ive watch. You heard the bag of laughs going off. That bag of laughs has something to do with him coming back." Like it was his spirit or something lol, Jerry Garcia in a a bag lol. No one really ever got that that was just a way for Joker to have the last laugh.
