[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 4508392, member: 63706"] If you ever watched/read "The Killing Game", it is revealed that the Joker just snapped one day. He was trying to prove that all it takes is one bad day to make a good man turn bad by doing terrible things to Commisioner Gordon. He had some technical training and knowledge, but there is nothing in his background that suggested he would be a criminal mastermind or that he suffered from mental illness. I think it's a mistake to take Joker as a canon story. It's more like an "elseworlds" story-line. The age difference isn't that big a deal. Even the director says he might not be the real Joker. [URL="https://comicbook.com/dc/amp/news/joker-arthur-fleck-might-not-be-real-joker-director-todd-phillips/"]Joker Director Todd Phillips Says Arthur Fleck Might Not Be the Real Joker[/URL] I liked the depiction of the character's descent from trying to keep it together to fully embracing his insanity. I did think the delusional relationship with his neighbor was unnecessary and a bit ham-fisted. I also think the movie would have been less captivating without the Batman connections. "Falling Down", plot point for plot point, was a better movie. [/QUOTE]
