James and animator Nobu are reacting to Batman: The Killing Joke. In this movie adaption of the iconic Alan Moore graphic novel, the late, great Kevin Conroy returns as Batman to take on Mark Hamill's Joker. And Batgirl is involved to play her part in the story and her part that wasn't in the story... which maybe shouldn't have been in the movie. Enjoy!

Sonic was blasted out of this world with copyright strikes and we had to remove it from KZbin entirely. We pulled this reaction from the vaults instead! Enjoy!

[@EChacon]

Sorry to hear about your Sonic the Hedgehog film reactions being taken down due to copyright strikes from Paramount and even the same can be said with your reaction of _The Super Mario Bros. Movie_ that still remains copyright striked by NBCUniversal/Comcast 2 months ago. Hopefully you would work around the copyrights and edit your reactions so they can be re-uploaded on the channel someday. Even to this day I’m still perplexed why your _Super Mario Bros. Movie_ reaction got taken down but the other reactors who reacted to this movie didn’t get their reactions taken down by NBCUniversal/Comcast?

When he looked at the jokers file in the bat cave, it Jason Todd the 2nd robin dead in the upper right corner. Which leads up to the under the red hood storyline

[@DanGamingFan2406]

This film certainly has its problems, but I will say that the last 40 minutes are actually quite good and faithful. Mark Hamill and Kevin Konroy will always be best voices for Joker and Batman.

[@Bazzkorg]

This was the big draw for me. Mark Hamill and Keven Conroy returning!!!!

[@MacDuck1997]

Agreed. I literally skip most of the movie to actually get to the “Killing Joke” portion of the flick. Minus the awkward and unnecessary Romance between Babs & Bruce, not a bad movie.

[@borntogazeintonightskies]

In hindsight, they really should've just released a 40 minute short film.

[@Maxwellish]

i remember seeing this film when it came out and thinking the Barbara+Batman dynamic was so weird lol, depending on the piece of media she either sees him as a mentor/father figure or a love interest, she was originally interested in Dick Grayson.

[@Thoralmir]

It was hinted at in the New Batman Adventures, and outright confirmed in Batman Beyond.

[@nathancruz9172]

@@Thoralmiryep.

[@jian5568]

It's weird enough that they use the same voice actress of batgirl from the New batman series.

[@matthewfullerton1416]

The first half of this is definitely problematic but the last half is amazing. It constantly boggles my mind that DC can't get their act together for the live action movies but their animated movies are consistently gold. You guys should absolutely check out Dark Knight Returns.

[@boboboy8189]

Unlike animated movie where they given creative freedom, none of DC movie got creative freedom, not Even nolan..... Many people didnt know in batman begin, wb forced nolan to put batmobile after he finished the script. Wb execs demand they shoots in Chicago for the dark knight, wb forced snyder to adapt batman vs superman old script . Matt reeve were forced to put White privilege and Black commisioner gordon

[@robo1513]

@@boboboy8189 wait when did they talk about white privilege in The Batman? I mean Riddler talks about how Batman didn't live how most orphans do (due to him being rich) but I don't think they mentioned race.

[@h_nt_r]

​@@robo1513Zoey Kravitz has a piece of dialogue where she mentions "White privileged a-holes". It feels like she didn't even want to say it.

[@fynnthefox9078]

Nah, even the last half is garbage.

[@WhiteWolfDarkpaw]

I know y'all said you recorded this last year, but something I thought was awesome is that Mark Hamill had retired completely from doing the Joker voice, as it was really getting rough on his throat. But he did say there was one thing he'd come back to do the voice for..... The Killing Joke. Mark returned to the recording booth exclusively for this movie :3

[@filipvadas7602]

21:50 for all the movie's problems they got this scene right. This is the scene that made The Killing Joke what it is. Joker's whole , well, joke perfectly describes his and Batman's relationship and the layers to it. He describes borh himself and Batman as crazy but unlike himself, Batman is the one who made a leap of faith and got to the other side. Meanwhile the Joker is too afraid to do the same. Not only does he not think its possible for him to do it, but he doesn't trust Batman to stick by him if he did. And to this day, its still debated if the final scene of this movie is Batman killing the Joker or not.

[@Hoss_Delgado977]

I always took how the Joker's laugh stops to mean that he did strangle him

[@DI-QueenmoEMino]

The Killing Joke is probably one of the first DC animated movies that I've got super into, even though it has it's issues to it. Would seriously love to see you guys react to Batman the long Halloween. Also other mature animated movies ya'll should check out is BirdBoy: The Forgotten Children, Mary & Max also The Breadwinner is a emotional good one too.

[@EChacon]

As this is the first time you reacted to _The Killing Joke_ which was R-rated, hopefully, you guys will watch on some R-rated and PG-13 animated films (e.g. _The Simpsons Movie)_ on the channel outside of the DC Animated movies (Justice League Dark, Batman: The Long Halloween).

[@Kennyisdarkvanilla]

Notice when Batman starts laughing and the Joker immediately stops when Batman wraps his arms around him. It’s implied that Batman strangled the joker hence the name The Killing Joke. The author intended it to have an audience interpretation.

[@Lord_Draco_III]

This actually isn't true at all. Alan Moore himself, the original writer of The Killing Joke, has gone on record to say that the way he made the ending is *NOT* to be interpreted as the Batman snapping and killing the Joker, but rather a shared moment between these two characters where they experience a brief lucid realization of the absolutely insane relationship that they have... and they both can't do anything except laugh at their situation.

[@twisterdavemd1]

Say what you will about this storyline, but the callbacks on the Bat Computer are awesome! Smilex tainted products (Nicholson, 89), Joker in GCPD (Ledger), Laughing Fish, Pagliacci - great stuff!

[@CLDJ227]

That batman and batgirl thing here will forever live in infamy, but aside from that this is a decent page to scene adaptation. The prologue was added to try and make Batgirl have a better role in the story than just to get shot. However, they created more problems and the prologue feels so disconnected from the rest of the story. You can just cut to the beginning of Batman walking in the rain and just watch it from there.

[@complex2live]

Now if they would have made the guy she was fighting related to joker it would have been better, but there was nothing

[@kobewankenobi248]

*Highly, highly recommend watching the DC animated films. For the most part they are very good*

[@maxwellgrimsley]

Many people argue that the Joker is hyper sane. Aware of things others aren’t. Every time he breaks the fourth wall and shows he knows he’s in a comic book, people in the world are of course like “Well, he’s crazy.” But many, I included, wonder if it’s insanity or merely being so aware that it breaks you.

[@smileyhappyface5864]

Considering the way he makes up incredibly elaborate backstories for himself and that, if you think about it hard enough, there is an actual comic where each backstory is the "real story"? He is DEFINITELY aware of what he is and who he is supposed to be in the meta sense, and he is obsessed with Batman because of it. While I also believe he's insane simply because of the few times when he tortures people that have basically nothing to do with Batman "because it's funny", he leans into it a lot so he looks like more of a lunatic than he is.

[@jessthestylist8694]

This movie definitely feels like two different people made it based off the different vibes in the first and second halves. It’s almost like a two part episode that the animated series would have. The second half is PHENOMENAL. RIP Kevin and bravo Mark👏🏻

[@Narutoanime16g]

I definately want to read the comic now after this and having seen this movie twice all of Batman and Joker's dialogue was great

[@h.haydon8044]

Yes, definitely look at the other Batman animated films!

[@ShesBats]

I liked this so much. And glad you used it as a substitute for Sonic. If it's Batman it's like the Lion King opening to me. 😊 The hmmhmm that went down between Bruce and Barbara was such a noo I knew it happened because of Batman Beyond but I never wanted to see it. Yuck lol.

[@RandomEnvironmentArtist]

You guys talking about Joker falling into acid reminded me of Electro from Spiderman saying “Gotta watch where you fall”

[@Vlad.Larionov]

Great reaction! It is very interesting to see your reaction to the films Batman Unlimited: Animal Instincts and Batman Unlimited: Monster Mayhem. These are cool movies 👍🔥🔥

[@michaelglover5474]

People who hate on the first half, that's their opinion of course, but I don't understand why they let it ruin the whole film. Some weird choices aside I think it works fine

[@crtg4672]

I get that it might be bias since I grew up with these characters/voices in Batman: TAS but it's so insane to me that the best Batman and Joker voice were in the same series.

[@KERRYPIKE]

Batman is a great superhero in this movie.

[@malytheson]

What i like about this joker is that he isnt just mad he still have human in him,

[@ChildofChrist1983]

Sucks about the Sonic movie reaction. Glad I managed to watch the first one before it was nuked. Despite it being FAIR USE, KZbin! But I digress...I highly recommend you react to the Batman/Superman team-up movies, such as "Public Enemies" and "World's Finest". I think you'd thoroughly enjoy them and their friendship is something to behold. Especially when you take into account Batman and Superman are best friends since the 1940's radio shows, much like you and Nine-Tailed Brush/Nobu. And don't give the animated Superman movies the short end of the stick, cause they're great, too! Either way, I look forward to them. God bless, guys!

[@movies798]

I actually enjoy this movie despite it's flaws. The first half of the movie wasn't faithful to the comic book because the source material was pretty short. So they wanted add an original story in order to make this movie 90 minutes or longer. But the second half is pretty faithful though.

[@Aaron__Parker]

Hell yeah, DC Animated movies are the shizz

[@SevenEllen]

You gotta watchThe 'Burbs guys, it's up there with Tom Hanks' finest - Toy Story, Big, and Splash.

[@fynnthefox9078]

Ugh... This movie. I wish you guys read the comic instead, or at least first. Not even Kevin and Mark's performances could save it. They don't stand great in this, and they were just in Arkham Knight! And, of course... The first half and how Barbara is portrayed in this movie. Also the animation is just so stiff! Why cheap out on THE KILLING JOKE of all adaptations! Bad introduction to Barbara/Batgirl for Nobu. Watch the two-parter, The Shadow of the Bat from Batman: The Animated Series. Better introduction to the character.

[@manticore5733]

The ending here and more so in the comic was meant to imply that Batman kills the Joker... but as it was left ambiguous the comics slightly retconned that allowing the Joker to return... I can't recall if they ever actually explained how things played out though. I do remember the original comic being very brutal at the time though, back when comics were really getting the hang of being 'dark'.

[@reielric6246]

James! If you haven't picked a movie for anime yet, have you seen Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers? What they did in that movie will mess you up. 2D, 3D, live-action, and it's funny. As Anya would say Shoooock!

[@jack_thomass]

bro. be careful of copyrights.. my old channel got deleted by KZbin because i didn't care about the copyrights.. i just kept uploading.

[@shanespears73]

Love the vid. Except for you guys being "men" and judging Barbara, calling her immature. As a gay dude that has had more experience with men let me say Barbras feelings were valid. My fave part in the whole movie is when she throws the jerky guy going on at his girlfriend. And Barbras like "there you got space". I was like yeah kick his ass. Ughmen 🤨😡

[@Jackeduphobo33]

I thought it was fine as a whole, but as a production it's quite disappointing. The story and characters follow the comic to a t, but not any further. The voice actors were great however and couldn't imagine anyone but Hamill and conroy. I feel that they really take the material seriously, and that shows in the movie. The Batman/Barbara-stuff is totally unnecessary and could either have been completely cut or edited down. It's not awful but it doesn't belong in this story. One of my bigger disappointments was with the animation. It IS decent enough, for a straight to video kind of movie, but a story like this should have a bigger budget. The dark knight returns-movies looked great so I'm a bit confused why this one, considering it's based on an equally as famous comic, wasn't living up to that standard. The colors are nothing special. Mostly muted and without any real depth. The backgrounds are ok, but they all look like a pale imitation of the comic, instead of bringing the pages to life. The animation itself it quite static, with no great movements or anything like that. Sometimes I feel like I can even count the frames. As I stated before, I think that the movie is ok but a story like this needed to be much better than just "ok"

[@nathancruz9172]

4:50 sometimes, I got no problem with batgirl 😘 Batman for sure.

[@sebastiantrias1529]

I thought it was OK, but the worst part was the first act.

[@filipvadas7602]

The opening minutes are really my only problem with this movie. Not only did O never like Bruce and Barbara being a thing, but its such an unneccesary addition.

[@jacobolivas1823]

Need more DC animated movie reactions for sure!

[@squirlking2]

So you cut the entire part of batman's abyss speech which is very important to what Barbara quit being Batgirl. She almost fell into the abyss that batman was referring to

[@TheGundamsword]

This movie was atrocious. An insult to the comic. The whole sex with Batgirl thing was never in the comic and completely out of place. And it removed the part where Batman kills the Joker at the end too.

[@jack_thomass]

when joker started singing i skipped that part coz i thought i was going mad already watching half of this movie

[@Paradoxx867]

By the way, the comic ends with Batman seemingly killing Joker.

[@cruisingbongos4913]

The saddest part about joker, is that hes only sane enough to know hes too far gone into insanity to ever come back from it.

[@alfreddreamer9097]

Leave it to Alan Moore to bring a more mature Batman Joker interaction.

In the comic we see Just the silhouete of Batman putting his hand over Jokers neck, as the panels move to the rain. Both are laughting, until Just Batman is. Originally the comics was suposed to be an elseworld story. But It was so iconic they decided to include It in the canon. Thats why they changed It in the movie, so that Batman didnt killed the Joker in the end. Also, thats not necessarly Jokers origin, even in canon. Its just ONE version Joker is telling It. But as he said, his past is mutiple choice. Sometimes he remembers It one way, sometimes another.

[@StarvingArtist600]

At the end, Joker's laughter ends, but Batman's laugh continues... while both of Batman's hands are on Joker's shoulders... near Joker's throat. It's implied that Batman kills the Joker.

[@just_some_bigfoot_hacking_you]

I wanna see The Joker War and The Three Jokers get their animated movie as well. You guys should check out their comics. The Three Jokers comics is one of my favorite besides from Injustice, it shows the origin story of Joker (Spoiler Alert: Joker's real name is Jack Oswald White) and there are epic plot twists, it's a well written comics. And the art is so sick. I love it.

[@ceougin20]

I get people’s gripes with it but I enjoyed it at face value. Conroy and Hamill are still my interpretations of these characters. Y’all gotta hit Under The Red Hood, Batman Year One and The Dark Knight Returns for CERTAIN. They’re the pinnacle of DC animation when it comes to the Caped Crusader.

[@acgthamc]

One bad day.. that’s all it takes

[@samythekay]

"If I'm gonna have a past I prefer it to be multiple choice". That's where you realize as a reader/viewer that the Joker fooled you too. The origin story you saw from his memory is just as fake as any other. He doesn't remember, but he's gonna follow his sick mind to prove whatever fantasy his sick mind fabricated. People died and got injured just because his delusional spirit pushed him to prove a point that never even was. That's the real horror.

[@OpticalSorcerer]

I definitely want more DCAU Batfamily films, particularly ones that involve Tim Drake, Ghostmaker, and Harley Quinn.

[@TheGothamite3]

Do more DC animated movies

[@raphael_2d878]

I'm not saying this is one of my favorites or anything but one thing I like is that they actually made this one rated R. They should do more rated R Comic Book Movies. Specially animated. Hope they make Watchmen likes this one day. I've heard there's an animated watchmen project coming but I'm not sure if it will be rated R.

[@hanziggy6862]

The part with Batman hooking up with Batgirl was too weird, I agree. But, if you think about, Batman is a bit screwed up in the head too, in a way. Also, in the Batman: The Animated Series, there were hints the 2 had a relationship as well as in the Batman Beyond series, there was also a hint they had a thing. You mentioned Batman: Hush. FYI, that movie is part of a continuation of other animated films that came before it. You can look online or Wikipedia and see a big list of which DC animated movies came out when in order and which ones are part of which continuity and which are stand-a-lone. Other than the animated movies, if you guys really want a great introduction to many of the DC characters, watch the Young Justice animated series. It is very fun to watch, but with each season, new characters get introduced and you really get a good broad overview of so many different DC superheroes and what they do, including even Blue Beetle, whose movie is coming out very soon.

When it comes to this version of Barbara and Bruce's relationship, Barbara was first with Dick Grayson. Then in "Batman Beyond" we find out Barbara and Bruce were together at some point. That being said, it just doesn't work here for several reasons, but I do get why it was done. It's just an easy, obvious storyline that was so haphazard. I mean, they literally have the gay best friend stereotype Barbara complains to.

[@Mrryn]

Less "gay best friend" and more sibling...y'know, like a Bat Family. Which is why the Bruce-Barbara thing is so weird, doesn't work, and rubs so many people the wrong way.

You guys really need to watch The Long Halloween. That's pretty much the BEST Batman story.
