The Joker’s Best Quotes in The Dark Knight (2008)

In recent years, various interpretations for jokers have been made, and each has been attracting attention.

In the Batman: Animated Series, an ominous and traitor character appeared, and the terrible work was hysterical. Joker Todd Philips simply expresses the unstable fall to the manly manly madness. There is also Christopher Nolan's "Dark Knight". There, the Joker version of the hit leisure completely controls the situation, dragging the city of Gotam into the real chaos due to chaos.

Let's look at some comments that guarantee the status of the joker version.

“Very poor choice of words!”

Batman: Release her!

Joker: I failed to choose words!

There is one joker plan that came to the rich party: finding Harvey Dent. And if necessary, approach Harvey Dent. The clow n-like thugs, who are enthusiastic about wielding weapons, are his competitors, and the joker threatens everyone in the place and makes her nose rough.

He says he needs to talk to Harvey. However, when Rachel opens his mouth against himself, the joker sees it as an opportunity. Batman jumps up, and Joker threatens him, and carefully drives her out of the window. Unfortunately, Batman doesn't say very good words.

“I’m a dog chasing cars.”

Joker: That's right. I don't need insults between us, Harvey. With you ...

Rachel

Joker: Rachel was kidnapped. It was in the Gordon cage. I didn't assault

Your friend? Your plan.

Joker: Am I really a person with a plan? Do you know who you are? I'm a dog chasing a car. I don't know what to do even if I catch it! I'm just. . . I'm just doing

Joker has a plan for Gordon, who has planned unplanned police. Batman assumes almost all situations! Nevertheless, the joker succeeds in surpassing them.

Everyone tries to control the world, but the world cannot be controlled. He's just trying to show everyone how miserable the attempt to control his small world.

“I want my phone call!”

I want a joker phone. I want him. I want him! I want a phone call!

In the Gordon interrogation room, in the gaze of the "2 0-yea r-old man", the joker pierces him a simple request. At first glance, it seems to be unusual, but as you know, it is part of a typical arrest.

But the Joker doesn't reveal that he used his perverse understanding of explosives and mind manipulation to plant a phone in one of the thugs that was synchronized to an explosion. The phone rings, the lights flash, and in an instant the glass shatters and the whole level is engulfed in flames.

“I know your friends better than you ever did. Would you like to know which of them were cowards?”

Joker: You want to know why I use a knife? The weapon is too fast. You can't enjoy all the... little emotions. Little emotions. The... people show their true colors at the end. So in a way, I know your friends better than you know yourself. You want to know who was the coward among them?

Being locked in an interrogation room with a policeman who is a "20-year-old man" is not just because there was one impressive replica. These statements actually show the unique juxtaposition of the Joker and Batman. Batman thinks killing people is cruel. The Joker thinks it's cruel to deprive himself of a perfectly delicious, painful, slow kill.

“This city deserves a better class of criminal. And I’m gonna give it to them.”

Joker: You're only interested in money? This city deserves the best criminals. And I'm going to give it to you! If you just saw the Joker, you would never have guessed he was an economist. His first encounter with him was at a bank, but in fact he is not as obsessed with money as you might think.

Despite having mountains of money that he can do anything with, he takes a cigar out of the mouth of a criminal boss and burns all his money. It is never about money. The incident is in the message.

Joker: Don't call me one of theirs. You are not for them! Even if you wanted to be one of them. To them you are just a freak, just like me! We need you now, but when we no longer need you, we will throw you out like a leper! Their morals and rules are a bad joke. If there is any trouble, they will throw you out immediately. They only go as far as the world allows. Let me show you. When it's all over, civilized people will eat each other. I am not a monster. I am just in front of events.

“I’m not a monster. I’m just ahead of the curve.”

In a world that pretends to be order, the Joker is chaos. In a corrupt world, the Joker is just trying to expose it. In a world of darkness, the Joker seeks to light the world with explosions.

He sees himself as the natural evolution of the world. The darkness within each person is turned inside out for all to see.

Joker: Come here. Hey, look at me. I had a wife. She was beautiful, just like you. You worry too much. You tell me to smile more. She gambles and climbs into the depths with sharks. As soon as she cuts her face. No money for surgery. She won't be able to bear it. I want to see her smile again. I want her to know that I don't care about the scars. So... I put a razor blade in my mouth and do this.

His Wife Scar Story

The Joker has a wide scar across his cheek. I put red lipstick on it and light it up like a clown smile. He doesn't always smile, but the Joker always has a big smile on his face.

This is one of two stories about how he got his scar. Is this true? Or the next one?

Joker: Do you want to know where this scar came from? My dad was a drunkard and a pervert. One night he was more angry than usual. My mom took out a kitchen knife to defend herself. My dad didn't like it. I didn't like it either. Not at all. Not a drop. So I watch, and he points the knife at my mom and laughs at the same time. He turns to me and says, "Why are you so serious?" He walks towards me with the knife. "Why are you so serious?" He puts the knife in my mouth. "Look at this face and laugh." And

His Father Scar Story

The Joker has no special background. Maybe that's what makes him interesting. Maybe that's what makes him scary.

He's a man of mystery that even Batman can't solve. He can't tell a story through flashbacks, at least not in real life. That said, the Joker wants to come up with his own story to explain his scars. If there is a story, he likes multiple options.

The Joker, with his ankles wrapped around him, hangs upside down on one of Batman's many hooks. He swings, smiles, laughs, teases Batman, and tells him again that they are very similar.

“Madness is like gravity… all it takes is a little push.”

This is the last line the Joker speaks in the film, creating a perfect finale for the Joker character.

Three simple words that don't seem as terrifying as they are written, but Heather Ledger brings something to these lines that gives you goosebumps and gives you nightmares.

“Why so serious?”

The Joker begins his story calmly, then goes roaring, and ends with this line as if it had no weight. Why are you so serious?

Batman: Then why do you want to kill me?

“You complete me!”

Joker: I don't want to kill you! What would I be without you? Would I have to attack the mafia?

Batman: No, you're not! You're not! You're... You're... Make me stand out

The Joker and Batman go hand in hand. They are together. One spends his time searching for fabrics to order and themed business cards for his infamous rants in Gotham, and the other is the Joker!

Their similarities go far beyond their devotion to their subjects. And it is this similarity that the Joker particularly likes. These two madmen intertwine.
