Batman: The Killing Joke (Rate the Movie)

Finally.

I hope they aren't doing R for R's sake. But imo this story can hit R without anything really being added. simply animating what the Joker does to Babs and Gordon is basically enough for an R rating.

 

[Avenger]

are they going to stick to the story's canon or are they going to make some differences?

 

[JudoThrowFiasco]

please be better than Bad Blood and Batman v Robin

I'm here just for Hamill's delivery of "One bad day".

are they going to stick to the story's canon or are they going to make some differences?

It doesn't really seem like there's enough material for an 80minute movie if they don't pad the story somewhat.

Can't wait to hear Batman dropping f-bombs and see Batgirl's titties.

Wish it was madhouse studios who's doing it.

Can't wait!

I want to be excited, but I've never seen a non-CGI, Western-animated super hero movie that kept my interest. I don't like the art style at all, the stories are always dumbed down (even as adaptations of many works that aren't exactly genius to begin with), predictable as fuck. An assembly of things I've seen and heard before with no character at all.

I don't know what's making this R-rated, but I'm positive Gordon isn't going to be forced to watch images of his daughter being crippled while he's naked except for leather BDSM gear and chained in a bent-over position in front of the Joker.

It's interesting that they're making the cartoon R, but the live-action stuff PG-13. This could be the beginning of something great. I hope it is.

As for adding story.... I know why they have to do it, but....

 

[WorldofWarcraft]

Rated R probably means brief nudity in the movie.

Besides TDKR, the past 10 or so animated movies have sucked. Don't like the new animation and crappy voice acting with stories that are half assed.

12-Minute Sneak Peek at BATMAN: THE KILLING JOKE

I don't like the animation. Hamil is GOAT, but the animation takes me out of the story.

 

[Kardashians]

I don't like the animation. Hamil is GOAT, but the animation takes me out of the story.

the animation looks to be an almost direct translation of the comic. I know they talked about how they have to strip it down in a sense, but I think they did an excellent job at making the transition to animation.

 

[Kiddo716]

So pumped for this movie. Looks like they aren't going to shy away from the more hardcore aspects of the comic.

The Killing Joke is not as good as people make it out to be. In my opinion, Year One, Hush, Long Hollowean, Dark Knight Returns, Death in the Family, Knightfall, and Dark Victory are all better. The Killing Joke is really short and the best parts to me are the art and ambiguity of the ending. Did Batman really kill the joker this time? Fluffying this up to a feature, I don't know how well that will work. The story sticks out to me due to the art and the Moore-ishness of the story. Moore thought much of the story. Probably, because it really doesn't have a lot of meat. It really is just a couple issue arc that was turned into a hardcover special.
