I don't think DC is in any position to do things "when they're desperate enough" like Disney with its infinite money who can just eat 50 failures. DC is sent reeling with 1 bust and they have many
>You know DC will do it once they get desperate enough.
They just need another multiverse movie as an excuse and he will be 100% in the cinematic universe
>Commissioner Gordon visits Batman after he killed Joker, not knowing he's infected with the Joker toxin >Batman offers him some sugar for his coffee as they chat >At the end of the scene, Gordon sips the coffee, realizes it was salt just in time for Batman to pull out a gun and kill him
Its moronic 2000s leather and spikes edgy and has a shitty plot with an uncreative concept.
The best Batman comics came from Miller, and the rest of the franchise was carried by the Burton/Nolan movies and TAS, if you ignore toy sales and franchising which is where most of the cash comes from in reality.
Because it goes from an interesting "what-if" story to one of the most absolutely absurd stories and characters of all time.
I mean at one point The Batman Who Laughs (who is a corrupted Batman) finds a Bruce Wayne from another universe who is actually Doctor Manhattan, kidnaps him, and has his own brain transplanted into that body. This newly created Batmanhattan Joker becomes The Darkest Knight and is the strongest being in any universe.

sounds kino to me

It also turns out that Batman owes all of his successes to a Bat god called Barbatos, who recruited The Batman who Laughs to raise a squad of evil Batman, including one who created a virus that turns him into Doomsday.
Literally all they needed to do was have him use Bruce Wayne's intellect to engineer some gay multiverse travel like Rick and Morty in order to get to the main universe, but I guess that's too predictable for nu-DC.
Nah there's "not taking yourself too seriously" and then there's being moronic.
Also Dark Knights did take itself incredibly seriously. It was a hamfisted metaphor for writing and it was a multiversal crisis event where the evil Batmen embodied different (dumb) ideas, such as Robin King being "the personification of the concept that Batman Always Wins".
I'm directly quoting the comic. What I'd like to see is some Silver-Age Superman.
The Batman Who Laughs' issue is that it's self-aware edge bordering on parody. Hollywood and most of the comics industry doesn't have the balls to do self-serious edge anymore.
He's an insufferable Mary Sue, a character with Joker plot armor on top of Batman plot armor. It's the ideas of "Batman can outsmart and defeat anyone, even Superman!" and "all other villains are scared of the Joker!" rolled into one and taken to the extreme. It's absolutely disgusting.
I would rather see the Killing Joke with Batfleck and Woody Harrelson as the Joker
if they make the Batman who Laughs I think Jared Leto could work (watch The Little Things, three god tier performances in it). a better Leto project would be a remake of Face/Off with him replacing either Nic Cage or Travolta
From all the good batman, and superman comics (while we are at that), exactly 0 of them was made a movie.
I don't understand, after 30 movies between them, "oh boy, this comic I just read is very good and iconic and they are going to make a 1:1 live action movie out of it!"
Why are you like that
This might come off as controversial but I think the role should go to Jeremy Renner’s detached wiener and balls. You never know what an up and coming actor can do with a meaty part like this.
Within the context of The Killing Joke, getting the Batman to laugh is breaking him down. The Joker's intent was to make Comissioner Gordon go crazy and do something reckless and evil, but getting the Bat to actually laugh(which means either surprising him with an idea and/or getting him to accept an absurdity) is also a win, albeit harmless, for the Joker.
Well, both threatened the multiverse but Owlman did it without the need to attain Dr. Manhattan's powers and shit like that. At the same time, Owlman was beaten by Bruce who is technically part of the Batman who Lels, so one could assume Batkek could defeat him.
Idris Elba.

A shame they already used up Jared Leto, who's the only one sick enough to pull it off.

why do people shit on this comic so much? batman-joker seems like a cool concept
t. don't read comics

Which is what we need, not all these gritty super serious capeshit movies that take themselves too seriously.

then just use The Joker
The Batman Who Laughs' issue is that it's self-aware edge bordering on parody. Hollywood and most of the comics industry doesn't have the balls to do self-serious edge anymore.
He's just the Joker, but not funny or interesting .He's a terrible character.
Except he's not the Joker, he's Batman.
It’s reddit.
>batman-joker seems like a cool concept
They just took the joker, dressed him as batman, and gave him superpowers
He's an insufferable Mary Sue, a character with Joker plot armor on top of Batman plot armor. It's the ideas of "Batman can outsmart and defeat anyone, even Superman!" and "all other villains are scared of the Joker!" rolled into one and taken to the extreme. It's absolutely disgusting.
It will be Warwick Davis. The role will be played completely straight, with no reference ever being made to his height.
I would rather see the Killing Joke with Batfleck and Woody Harrelson as the Joker
if they make the Batman who Laughs I think Jared Leto could work (watch The Little Things, three god tier performances in it). a better Leto project would be a remake of Face/Off with him replacing either Nic Cage or Travolta
since neither is likely, I'm voting Tom Felton
The Wonder Woman finale sucks.
Walton Goggins
frick it, Daniel Kaluuya is the alternate

There are no good comics, they are all shit for children.

>Who could play him
Obviously the renowned thespian and doctorate on all things Joker-related, Jared Leto.
Unironically yes
He was miscast as joker, but a shredded batshit batman, kino
The guy who played the Mouth of Sauron use him

The Joker's intent was to make Comissioner Gordon go crazy and do something reckless and evil, but getting the Bat to actually laugh(which means either surprising him with an idea and/or getting him to accept an absurdity) is also a win, albeit harmless, for the Joker.
whatever nerd
the batman who braps
I'm pretty sure there was a silver-age story about exactly this.
>remains the best evil Batman in your path
Who would win in a fight between him and the Batman who Keks?
Well, both threatened the multiverse but Owlman did it without the need to attain Dr. Manhattan's powers and shit like that. At the same time, Owlman was beaten by Bruce who is technically part of the Batman who Lels, so one could assume Batkek could defeat him.
>nihilism vs honkapilled
latter wins
