The Joker

Unlike the majority of people in this world, the Joker does not think of himself as a good person. He knows he is crazy and does not think too highly of himself. This is called “illusory superiority”, the cognitive bias in almost all people that makes people think of themselves as better people than they actually are. The Joker does not have this. He believes that

In the view of author Kevin Mahadeo, one of the most insane tricks the Joker had pulled was when he had captured members of the Bat-Family and had Alfred serve them up some platters topped with their faces which he had cut off. (Mahadeo) This is a representation of how truly insane and twisted the Joker was. Although the joker was quite insane, some people have learned to love his evil ways because of how clever and inventive he was while he came up with tricks. Despite the Jokers insane tricks, his trickery is shown throughout today’s culture because of how thought out and clever he can

In a movie where good and evil are divided by a very thin line, the Dark Knight rises up to fight against injustice and corruption in Gotham City. An action sequel to the original Batman Begins, this installment is a lot darker filled with more explosion, twists, and suspense. For the first time, a comic has been integrated into the issues of the real world. With the help of District Attorney Harvey Dent and Lieutenant Gordon, Batman sets out to dismantle the remaining mob members and clean the streets of Gotham for good. Their success is only short-lived when they encounter the Joker, a mysterious mastermind who is out to prove that nobility cannot hold in a world of anarchy.

The craziest most outrageous killer in comic history Joker. Joker is Batman's archenemy because Joker has killed numerous of Batman's family members and killed many other hero's and villains. Joker was brought to the seen in 1940 by Bob Kane, Jerry Robinson, and Bill Finger. Kane and Robinson claim responsibility for the design of Joker the serial killer. Joker is portrayed as a criminal mastermind. Joker was a goofy prankster in the late 1950's but then If you didn't know Joker fell into a tank of chemical waste which bleaches his skin white, turns his hair green, and his lips bright red. After that tragedy of falling into a container of chemical waste it drives him insane. Then introduced as a psychopath with a warped, bizarre sense of humor, before returning to his darker roots during the early 1970's.

Chaotic settings, monstrous actions, and a less than an appealing appearance make Joker who he is. Joker has no real name and there was not much difference between his past and his present. His past consisted of being a trickster and a thief, and his present state is both a trickster and a thief but no real crime is outside of what he is willing to do. What made Joker into who he is today was a life jarring accident that drove him insane. The reason that the accident drove him insane is that when he fell into a chemical waste it changed his appearance and cause of the change in appearance it supposedly drove him to thought for like insane.

I will be talking about joker’s creation, personal life, and his enemies. First let’s talk about how joker was created. Joker quits his job as a lab assistant, and works as a bad comedian to support his pregnant wife, when his wife passes away he agrees to help mobsters as the red hood, joker was not always joker he used to be another villainous criminal as the red hood who had a gang of mobsters, then batman suddenly shows up, and joker was punched in the face and fell into a pool of acid waste, which bleaches his skin white, and colors his hair green, and also his lips bright red. So now he has not only had an accident but why he is also insane. When joker fell into the pool of acid, and fell out of the sewers he looked at his reflection, and goes insane of his disfigurement.

For instance, in one of the opening scenes of the movie, he double-crosses a group of mob bosses to escape the room the only person alive, escaping with the money as well. Moreover, he uses these tactics to decide the fate of large groups of civilians and prisoners, as he planted a bomb on both ships, and one was forced detonate a bomb on the other. Based on the Joker’s actions in the film, I do not believe I relate

The joker doesn’t want to rule the world or be rich he just takes joy in watching Gotham burn. Sometime the joker even enjoys when Batman foils his plans. The joker has an obsession with Batman some think the reason the joker is still evil is because Batman always saves the city. As long as Batman saves the city the joker will always try to ruin

Batman: The Dark Knight directed by Christopher Nolan is non-stop action thriller that continually did the unexpected. The film is based off of the original Batman comic book but additionally changes the perception of the everyday world as good to naturally bad. Throughout the movie, Batman stands for honesty and goodness while the Joker is a symbolism of chaos and evil. Both sides are forced to make quick-witted decisions in order to stop the opposing vigilante from doing his desired work. The citizens of Gotham are put in the heart of this circumstance and feel obligated to go against their values to stop the chaos. Numerous people habitually pursue their dreams and values but often become blinded from their

Imagine a life without crime, hatred and fear. A world that you can feel safe in without any despair. If we fight fire with fire then more fire will spread meaning if Batman were to kill the Joker evil in mankind will still be there anyway, for instance the commonly known terrorist group Isis is determined to kill people and frightfully enough nothing stands in their way, not even the power of the U.S. government. Isis will continue to do this if we show weakness and we’ll be and easy target for them. Within mind of the theory of having Batman and the Joker work together and spread love instead of pure evil they should punish the joker first succeeding this time and however long it takes for him to realize that being hero is for the greater good.

Dark Knight released in 2008. The cinema buffs remember the intense and most often brutal rivalry between the Batman and the Joker played by Heath Ledger remains as one of the all-time favorite superhero movie conflicts. Heath Ledger’s Joker has become a cult character. His portrayal of the Joker is definitive and will remain unchallenged for years to come.

It really captured him in the best way possible. The film showed a brilliant criminal mind who got bored doing what normal criminals do. His apathy led him to seek out Batman. He spent the whole movie just trying to make a point that Batman was just as corruptible as the rest of us. He nearly destroyed half of Gotham to in the process, but that was the extent of what he wanted to do. The little dialogue between Batman and the Joker at the police station showed it best. He didn't care about anything, other than chaos. The Joker is a purification about the dark side of a part of us that we don't acknowledge. He is part of the darker side of the way of thinking, not only does he not wants to follow the rules of society, but he actively seeks to destroy the rules as we understand them. In his mind, chaos is the only actual truth in the

You don't need to be a comic book fan to instantly recognise The Joker. The villain is easily as iconic as Batman, and he's been in existence almost as long as his greatest foe. Since then, there have been more classic tales featuring the Clown Prince of Crime to possibly count, whether it's The Killing Joke, A Death in the Family, or any number of others. Many iterations of the character have existed, ranging from the campy clown of the 1960s to the remorseless psychopath killer who murders men, women, and children on a whim. To celebrate the character's 75th Anniversay, an image was released of Jared Leto as The Joker, providing comic book fans with yet another radically different take on The Joker as the actor looks to follow in the footsteps

“Why so serious, let’s put a smile on that face” it sounds pretty serious now that I am quoting the Joker from Batman. It surprises me how the Joker is a fictional character but now people have made this character come to life through their actions. I was only twelve when I had first realized that I had a mild form of coulrophobia whereas, I felt very uneasy when clowns tried to entertain such as making balloon animals, spraying water on kids, or playing pranks. “No, I don’t want to go the haunted house” it’s the 21st century and here I was arguing with my older sister that I did not want to be part of a horrifying night, just to pay people to scare us. It just seems weird to me but it was a tradition that every Halloween against my will

Another common thing that the Joker does is that he attempts to conceal the true reasons for his actions. In other words, the Joker uses defense mechanisms to distance himself from reality as a means to protect himself from the horrid things he has done (Friedman & Schustack, 2009). He demonstrates the specific defence mechanism of rationalization and he does this by trying to justify murdering Harvey Dent's, a pivotal character to the film's plot, girlfriend. He explains to Dent that her death was not his fault and he does such things (i.e., killing innocent people) to show others how pathetic they are for believing that they have control in their lives “ “ (De La Noy & Nolan,
