Still the best depiction of Bruce's parents murder


The music, the footsteps, the gunshots, the echoing screams of Bruce's mum has she gets shot, the pearls falling...

Batman Begins and Batman Vs Superman have re-done this moment since and it's nowhere near as haunting and effective as Tim Burton's approach. It's a vivid nightmare.

I think I'd agree.

While I like the scene I do see why others don't like the Joker being his parents' killer.

Every part of this film is the best depiction of everything from Bruce, Batman, the Batmobile, Batwing, Vicki Vale, Gotham, Bat Lair.

I can't argue with that. What about Joker? I'm in the minority but Nicholson's still the best for me.

reply

Yeah that goes without saying. Jack's joker was funny, guy was just a riot from start to finish. Give me someone who's fun to watch over just a regular bad guy villain.
