It's a reimagining of the Joker's origin story from The Killing Joke. In the book, the Joker is a nameless man with a pregnant wife and a failed career as a comedian. In order to feed his family, he takes a job for the Mafia to act as bait for Batman while dressed as the Red Hood. Batman accidentally pushes him into a vat of chemicals at ACE Chemicals and the Joker is born.

Gotham was originally inspired by New York City but has since developed a unique personality over time. It's often portrayed with a blend of Gothic Revival architecture similar to cities like Edinburgh, Aberdeen, and Liverpool and Art Deco design, giving it a timeless, 1930s aesthetic. Gotham in general has been depicted as being a mix of differant time periods. Despite this, Gotham has often struggled to look distinct in live-action adaptations, with the notable exception of the 1990s films, Batman '89, Returns, and Forever arguably offered the best depiction of Gotham to date. In Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight Trilogy, Gotham's appearance varied significantly across the films. Batman Begins featured a compelling Gotham with its Art Deco-style elevated train system and the atmospheric Narrows, all bathed in a warm tint. However, by The Dark Knight, Gotham resembled Chicago, losing much of its distinctiveness and character. In The Dark Knight Rises, the city looked even more like New York City, further diluting its unique identity. More recently, The Batman (2022) delivered one of the best representations of Gotham in years, thanks to its extensive use of Gothic Revival architecture, capturing the brooding and dark atmosphere often associated with the city. In contrast, Joker (2019) shot primarily in New Jersey, made Gotham feel like a stand-in for 1980s New York City, lacking the unique flair the city should possess, with Gotham simply written everywhere. But originally Gotham was just New York with a differant name.

[@SuddenReal]

I'm sorry to say that you're wrong about Gotham's depiction in the '90s movies. Tim Burton vamped up the gothic style he felt fitted Batman and since it was so well received by fans, they decided to change the aestethic in the comics so it fit the movies more (there was even a story line to explain the sudden "emergence" of old gothic looking buildings). So it's not that the films were the best depiction of Gotham, but that they shaped what Gotham looked like in the comics.

[@__Black_Sheep__]

Technically i think the first two guys Arthur kills would fall under "justified homicide" because they could've killed him but since the 3rd guy had stopped attacking Arthur and was running away, that was Arthur's first "murder".

[@phousefilms]

It was based on the scene from "DKR"where Joker says that they shouldn't restrain themselves after his psychologist says Batman suffers "sexual repression". It also kills the target, as his lipstick contains Joker toxin.

[@glennwelsh9784]

The movie isn't based on one particular story from the comics, but it does seem to borrow elements from a few. In the story The Killing Joke, Joker claims that he was a struggling wannabe comedian who resorted to a life of crime. The scene of Arthur killing Murray Franklin on his show seems mildly inspired by a scene in The Dark Knight Returns in which Joker goes on a talk show and kills the host and poisons the entire audience. And I believe that there was a recent story that presents Joker and Batman as brothers, but I don't think that is part of the modern canon. Comic book canon is very fluid and seems to constantly change. There is rarely ever one single definitive canon that endures unchanged across the decades because in the end, it's fiction. Sometimes, a story that was meant to be a standalone one-off receives such a positive reception that it gets adopted into the canon. Gotham City was originally inspired by New York City, though different mediums have used other cities as their inspiration for Gotham's aesthetic over the years. Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight Trilogy presents Chicago as Gotham, with some of New York in The Dark Knight Rises. Zack Snyder's Batman v Superman used Detroit. The comics tend to avoid clarifying where Gotham is or which state it's located in, usually so the reader can imagine it to be their nearest metropolitan city, though some hints imply that it's located on the coast of New Jersey, either between Manhattan and Atlantic City or situated along the Delaware Bay with Superman's Metropolis residing across the bay as Gotham's sister city.

[@Theravingranter]

So I know no one ever asks but I always leave this comment on the reactions of the movie. I have the same disorder as this version of the Joker but not as bad and of course it goes without saying I’m not some crazy head but that’s why it can be difficult to tell people because they either think I’m insane or a liar. I’ve learned to accept it and love myself!

[@firestorm1088]

The difficulty in telling reality from fantasy in this movie ties in to every movie or comic where they tell the Joker’s origin story. They always leave a little ambiguity whether what we just saw was the real story, or just an invention of the Joker’s shattered mind. The first time they did it, in the Killing Joke comic, the Joker himself says “If I’m going to have a past, I preferred it to be multiple choice.” One of my favorite quotes about this movie goes “Heath Ledger’s Joker is a man who went crazy and lost empathy for the world, Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker is a man driven crazy by a world without empathy.”

[@johnnyd1790]

That stance at the end, with tears in his eyes. He's like "Now these people get me, they all understand because they share my pain. I'm their champion. I'm the champion of pain!"

[@bitterzombie]

I like to point out because it is a bit unclear, but the "joke" he is laughing about at the end, is the death of Thomas & Martha Wayne. He got his revenge without even trying- to everyone else, its a tragedy, but to him, its comedic justice. He understands that he is the "scum of society" now. Everyone is against him, but he is no longer performing for them- he is doing it for his own satisfaction. It contextualizes the suffering he's endured through his life, he can accept it now- as long as he gets the last laugh.

[@davidgagnon7806]

His mother stood by while her boyfriend abused Arthur. Then he spent years taking care of her, even bathing her. So maybe that's why he killed her.

I said this on another reaction but I wouldn’t recommend viewing Joker (2019) as a canonical take on these characters because so much has been altered to fit them into a "realistic world." Instead of adapting the DC universe to live-action, they’ve adapted it to reflect our reality. This is a very different interpretation of the Joker, one that you really have to treat as its own separate thing. Regarding the age difference between Joker and Batman: In most renditions, Joker is only about 5 to 10 years older than Batman. Bruce leaves Gotham at around 18 to travel and train, returning at 25 to become Batman. So, during their early encounters, Joker would typically be around 30 to 35 at most. In the film, Arthur is around 32 or 33, while Bruce appears to be about 8 to 10 years old. If Bruce is 10, that leaves about 15 years before he becomes Batman, which would make Arthur nearly 50 by the time they meet. Personally, I don't think Arthur is meant to be the Joker that this Batman will eventually face. Instead, I believe someone else will take up the mantle of Joker, inspired by Arthur’s actions. Though the next film may disprove this theory wrong. In short, this film should be treated as a possible origin for the Joker if he existed in the real world during the early 1980s. It’s not trying to adapt the Joker or Gotham directly from the comics but instead reimagines them in a way that fits into our reality. Much like the Nolan films, where it was "Batman but in our real world," this movie takes a similar approach.

Joker was originally titled Clown and had nothing at all to do with Batman until a last second re-write.

Talking about societal pressures and contributions. It's subtle and quick but here the media turns him into a sensation for this behavior. Someone who is know known and not invisible anymore. There's a theory that suggests this happens in real life and with other things. Like the reporting at times drives the report to become a headline. Also observed online and from public figures. Being sensualized and important for bad things helps to steer them to go over the line and leave their old selves behind and it's particularly strong in the hardwired types cases. Like he is always going to be Joker and always going to be going big just to please his newfound audience from on here on out. I never noticed it in this film until checking out your review.

It`s "Insanity is doing the same thing expecting different results."

[@CaptainAmercia]

The idea of this film is like taking a random Canadian, giving him brass knuckles with knives attached, and calling it a Wolverine film. It’s somewhat the Joker, but at the same time, it’s not. Arthur tries his best to mimic the character from the comic books, but it’s still a different interpretation, one that’s more grounded and set in a world likely devoid of Batman, supernatural elements, or metahumans. This trend has been apparent in DC films ever since the Nolan trilogy, where they strip away everything else to focus solely on hyper-realism. I’m glad you enjoyed this movie, really liked it myself when it was released. But it does feels more like a story that the Joker, like the one from the comics would tell while speaking to a psychologist in Arkham Asylum. He weaves a tale about a man named Arthur who had a mother, fell in love, and whose whole world fell apart. It’s a tragic story, one that feels crafted by the Joker himself. His true origin unknown as he exists within a more fantastical world with Mister Freeze locked in the cell beside him while Batman & Robin adventure through an Art Deco, Gothic Revival timeless Gotham City.

[@phousefilms]

Agreed. The Joker, to me, works best as an enigma without a concrete backstory(which Joker tries to change). Making him thirty something while Bruce Wayne is a kid also makes it seem like they won't interact, which is like "why bother make it a film referencing Batman and pretty much creating his origin if that's the case?)
