Well, I don't trust you enough to tell you that. Open the social menu in the bottom corner of your screen by left-clicking on the little picture of the face, and make my disposition toward you go up." "O...ok...ok... you're weird..." Batman clicks on the face, and raises the Joker's disposition toward him to 99, and the effort costs him the batmobile and the deed to wayne manor... "You still want to know how I got these scars, Bats? Well, I still don't want to tell you!" |

Infamous Scribbler  Posts: 562 Joined: 6 Jul 2008   | Am I missing something? It seems like Batman doesn't follow a storyline, it just makes up different stories with same villian. In the first movie the Joker got fucked up by falling in a vat of acid, and in this one he got fucked up by his stepdad carving his face up? |

You've been under a biiiiig rock haven't you? They restarted the franchise, as in a re-boot, a retcon, completely removing all previous material so as to focus on a more accurate/trendy/profitable/not fucking camp film series. In the latest film the Joker keeps changing the story about how he got the scars. |

The first movie was true to the comics, while The Dark Knight was more realistic and mucho creepier. On-topic..."You want to know how I got these scars? Everyone thought I was too serious, too dark. So one day, I took out a knife and cut open my face. Put a smile on your face, make the world a better place. Of course, chaos cannot exist if everyone is completely serious all the time. So I ask you again, why so serious?" |

Pretty sure it's actually a "Chelsea Smile". Your source probably got confused with a "Glasgow Kiss" (which is a headbutt to the face for those who weren't aware). Anyways... You wanna know how I got these scars? All I'm gonna say is this: large amounts of booze and an engineering degree do not make a good combination. |

Not essentialy, The Joker character has never had a clearly defined past, and although the comics have shown different 'pasts', he himself said "Sometimes I remember it one way, sometimes another... if I'm going to have a past, I prefer it to be multiple choice!" The Dark Knight Joker is truer to the source in many ways. User was banned for: I'm Finished. (Permanent) |

No, no Joker actually killed Bruce's parents; the Batman Begins story is bollocks. |

Pulitzer Laureate  Posts: 951 Joined: 10 Sep 2007  | Ya wanna know how I got these scars? Well, my daddy - lovely fellow, by the way, just, ah, not the strongest guy you ever met - he hung around with the wrong sort. Mean people. Crazy people. The kinda people who'd break yer arm if they didn't like you tap-tap-tappin' yer fingers. People like me! Aha. So one day, my daddy lost his job. No fault of his, the company was just, ah, downsizing, so they had to let him go. Now, my daddy, he tried to get another job, but, ah, there were no jobs to be had. So, he asked around his friends - the mean ones, remember - and came up with an, ah, "arrangement". They'd give him a little loan, and he'd do little things for them. Get them sandwiches. Be their, ah, footstool. Let them use him as an ashtray. All with a lovely smile, o'course. No good having a grumpy ashtray. |

Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1011 Joined: 1 Dec 2007  | I loved her, you see. She'd laugh and dance, her beautiful children, her perfect eyes. But every time those damn legs would take her away from me. Those damn arms would scratch at my face. In truth the only thing I loved more then her was the slash of the razor, the sniping of flesh. Boyish rush of joy that she'd falter, fail, require my services of scalpel. To save the patient, you sometimes remove the bad parts of them. I must remove those god damn legs. So I did. In the deepest hole I could find, I snipped away her legs. Then the arms. Those pesky arms. Wanna know how I got these scars? Well, see, lovely didn't like her new condition. Managed to bite through her own cheeks, so desperate for release she was from the perfection I had made her into. |

BANNED  Posts: 425 Joined: 3 Aug 2008  | The Nolan universe is Batman, but at the same time very different from Batman. Ledger's Joker, though good, is a sideways glimpse of the character. In reality the Joker was much more evil, chaotic, and villainous then how Ledger portrayed him. As a matter of fact thogh Ledger did a good job, it was still subpar due to the fact that it was more of a slapstick role over an actual malevolent, murdering madman. If we wanted the real Joker we'd have Hannibal Lecture dressed up as a clown without the cannibalism. THAT'S the Joker. Hell the reason Batgirl became the Oracle... User was banned for: ..

Argh! Joker killed his parents in the Burton film only. In the comics, it was Joe Chill, like it is in Batman Begins. |

I don't remember the rape part, but it's true he shot her in the stomach and at least the torture of James Gordon suggested she would be victim of it. In fact, as far as I remmeber there has been no rape at all, but the Joker wanted to drive Gordon mad by caging him naked and forcing him to the pain of watching his daughter get slowly, but forcibly undressed foreshawoding horrors to come, but never quite achieving it. And the Joker did not rape her at all for sure, maybe he let his henchmen do it, but I doubt so, he's not a sexual deviant, he has sex in episodes of All-Star Batman and Robin for instance, but it's not one of his deviances, even for torture purposes... |

It was an Alan Moore thing: -- Alex |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1663 Joined: 15 Oct 2008   | The reason why the Joker changes his story in the movie is a reference to a line from the Joker Origin story. Meaning there is no correct origin story because they are all true. The movie also lacked on the Joker's killings. I just wish they used the Joker gas in the movie. |
Infamous Scribbler Posts: 623 Joined: 28 Jul 2008 | The Joker toxin is his trademark poison, it would have been cool indeed, but maybe in coherent if he just evaded and invented himself as the Joker... Alex> Yeah, and Alan Moore is known for his twisted plots (don't believe me ? read Miracle Man and League of Extraordinary Gentlemen) |

Was a bit of both to be honest. I'm slightly scared but also slightly amused. |

Really? I thought it was The Joker, huh, I'm not a huge fan of Batman.
It's only a lame joke anyway :D
