So the audience can get to know Babs even a little bit. TKJ does virtually nothing to establish her as a character so to the uninitiated her injury and violation means a lot less than it could have.
>>
>>84952567
That's how I saw it too. Otherwise, she's mostly an object to feel sorry for. It's not meaningful to paralyze a character that has nothing to define them as worth including in the story.

The filler, be that as it may, allowed us to get a better sense of story and character while also padding the movie time a bit so it won't be like watching an episode of a TV show on a big screen.

I really don't understand why they didn't make the first half of the movie about the Joker. Joker has Batman on the ropes and Batgirl saves his ass and Joker gets carted off to Arkham. When Joker cripples Babs later he has no idea he's effectively killed Batgirl as well.

...and they failed miserably there.

They should have just done Batgirl Year one.

Bruce Timm lives in a mindset where Barbara Gordon became Batgirl because she was a horny teenager who wanted to be fucked by Batman.
This story shows us that, when it finally happened, she had no reason to be Batgirl anymore.

That's literally Timm's idea of the character. Even the BTAS writers bible straight up says that she puts on the suit because of a "schoolgirl crush" on Batman.
>>
>>84954249

There was a post credit scene about Oracle.
>>
>>84954616

It was sorta cool, but again rings falls when you realize that the only reason she was Batgirl was because she's a Batman-stalker.

Is it worth a watch?
At the moment I have no way to pirate it right now so I would be buying it, but TKJ is one of my favorite comics so if it's good I wouldn't mind. What's the consensus?
>>
>>84954275
Considering how many gadgets the batmobile has, it wouldn't be hard to believe him putting a coffee maker in there. He doesn't seem like he sleeps very often so i'm sure it comes in handy.
>>
>>84951056
It's to make you more sympathetic towards the Joker and thus make Batman wanting to help him more believable. He's just a hero that takes things a bit too far sometimes.

>>
>>84955316
no there is zero evidence. she was naked because joker wanted to get at gorden if he had raped her he would have taken pictures of that as well
>>
>>84955721
If you like righteous indignation and angry circlejerks, it's a great movie.

As an adaptation of a well regarded comic, it's dogshit.
>>
>>84955316
Is it rape if he penetrated the bullet hole with his penis, but not her ass or vag?
>>
>>84951173
This.
>>
>>84956269
yeah joker raped batgirl, get over it, its an animated movie, they cant animate rape, the photos show her naked, batgirl ask why is he doing that, etc.. use your brain, she got raped so he could break gordon
>>
>>84957117
>yeah joker raped batgirl
Proof?
>>
>>84957117
>Joker is not shown to be raping her in the comic or cartoon
>Does not tell Gordon he raped her
>Barbara never mentions him raping her any time after

Combine all that with the fact that Joker as far as I know has never been shown to be a rapist anywhere else or even that sexual a guy in general and the idea that he raped her just does not add up. If he did rape her there's no evidence of it ever happening beyond the fact that she was naked in those pictures, and since none of those pics are a close up of a fiery pussy filled with clown jizz there's no proof of rape ever occurring.
>>
>>84957284
I'd just love to point out that Joker is a rapist in Azzarello's GN.
Make of that what you will.
>>
>>84957332
Is it at least funny rape?
>>
>>84957332
It's a non-canon book and even if you assume Azzarello decided Joker raped her for his Killing Joke adaptation it's still not actually shown in the movie nor does that have any effect on the actual comic or canon.
>>
>>84957348
it wasn't funny at all. it just... happened.

good thing it's entirely non-canon
>>
To humanize Barbara while simultaneously making her a sex object
>>
>>84951056
They had to build up her character for the average audience member and to give it a feature length time.
>>
>>84957361
Why would the Joker do something that isn't funny? That's just retarded. So he's a hack right?
>>
>>84957462
azzarello was the one who wrote the tkj movie including the part where babs and batman fuck, so you tell me
>>
>>84954157
Damn, Babs had some knockers in TKJ.

If Joker wasn't all about Batdick, he would've raped her.
>>
>>84957284
joker was trying to prove a point, that everyone can break, so he raped her even if he doesnt normally do that, he went all the way to try to brake gordon

gordon says to batman, "he showed me pictures of my daugther" gordon was in the room when his daughter got shot, and where she got shot, a non fatal wound, so why would joker show that again to him? the photos was something else we didnt see (rape of course)

Also gordon ask batman if he saw his daughter, batman says yes shes alive, but gordon says "and?" as if he doesnt even care if shes alive, he is asking if hes ok, like mentally or not broken from the rape
>>
>>84958193
You do realize that being shown your daughter being shot and crippled doesn't lose any impact just because he saw it already right? Joker showed him naked pictures of her in horrible pain to fuck with her and that's all he needed. Maybe Joker's gambit would have actually worked out had he actually raped her but he didn't. There's no proof of it whatsoever, just assumptions based on insubstantial evidence.
>>
>>84957284
> or even that sexual a guy in general and the idea that he raped her just does not add up

He has a sex drive in the movie, hence the prostitutes. They even say that he would always call on them whenever he broke out, but this time he "found a new girl"
>>
>>84958845
>The movie

Given how Azzarello portrayed the Joker in his comic I wouldn't really consider that accurate. Joker fucks hookers and rapes women in that book too so I'd say that's an Azzarello thing and not a Joker thing.
>>
What if the jokers cum would cure being a cripple?

>>84951056

>>
>>84958303
You think, "I'm trying to do my utmost to make this guy snap" and somehow follow that up with not doing EVERYTHING you can to make the guy snap?

Joker raped Barbara while she was laying there bleeding, and he took pictures of it all happening so he can show her father.

That's what you do to break a man.

It's not as bad, it was just unnecessary for Barbra to be part of the story or forced her in there. It's like watching 300 where you are expecting awesome because of all the trailers but then you get 30 minutes of hump guy background story.

First they should have made her relevant for example release a few Batgirl Movies like "Batgirl: Year One" then you move to "On wings birds of Pray" establish a relationship with Dick before breaking up and Finally “The Last Batgirl Story” the last year of Batgirl being Batgirl this is the arc in the Killing joke movie, then KIlling Joke.

You got to know Batgirl with three movies making the impact of her being shot by Joker more memorable to new watchers of the DC animated Universe that have never read a comic.
>>
>>84959187
It's Moore, if there was rape he would have shown it. You're just showing your ignorance.
>>
>>84951173
pretty much
>>
To show that batgirl is a strong independent woman so that when she gets cripple the sjw's who never read a comic before dont go up in arms. Why they made her fail multiple times, get rescued by bruce over and over again, and then fuck him, is beyond me
>>
>>84951173

Shit, you're totally on the ball there
>>
>Bruce, people are claiming this comic is sexist and saying we need to give Barbara a more active role in the plot.
>Okay, I'll have her fuck Batman on a roof, attack a man for yelling at his girlfriend, and get tricked by a criminal. She'll look incompetent, irrational, and clingy; then we'll clumsily segue into her getting shot.
>...okay...
>>
>>84957284
What about the scene where Batman goes to the hookers to find Joker. They say he usually comes straight there (to get laid) but he hasn't visited yet, they guess that he found another girl (he raped Barbara).

Also,Joker unbuttoning her shirt and fading to black is meant to imply rape. This is extremely common in TV & movies.

Why would Joker undress her and just take pictures? Even the cop who tells batman about the crime scene says Barbara was left in a state of undress and had a sad look on his face, implying more than Joker just undressing her.

Implications, man.
>>
>>84952567

They established her character as an incompetent worthless stalker with a crush who sucked at being Batgirl and quit because Batman didn't call her back.
>>
>>84959373
So DC would've allowed him to put up the rape scene, spent the next 5 panels showing Joker raping her?

You are showing YOUR ignorance by thinking explicitly showing it in the comic isn't just as pointless at the first half hour of the animated feature itself.

Stop being dense.

>>84959608
They would have let Moore do it similar to the Identity Crisis rape scene. You're just being delusional because you want your fanfic to be canon.

>so why would joker show that again to him?
because he was out of the room by the time joker started taking pics and its called "holding the shot" you know how in a movie the gore effects you less the quicker they cut away from the shot, yeah well now the joker is making him stare at his own inability to help her, at her bleeding out and dying
>>
>>84961408
The entire point of Red Son was that Superman became his own villain. He fought Braniac for entrapping a city in a bottle, but never stop to think that him taking control of everyone's lives was essentially the same thing. Lex Luthor is the closest thing to a protagonist that the comic has

I know outside context isn't the best for this sort of thing, but an interview with him makes it clear that it wasn't his intention:

>I don’t think that, actually. I did not think of it as supporting that. If I had, I probably would have changed the line. I never, ever thought that he actually raped her. Even in my first read of the comic, I never thought that. It just seemed like he shot her and then took her clothes off and took pictures of her to freak out her dad. I never thought that it was anything more than that.

>Here’s the thing: Whether he [raped her] or not, it’s still sexual violence. It’s still a horrible thing. So in my own head, I was already self-censoring the moment. Maybe just to make it a little more easier to get through. But it’s still a very horrible, horrible thing.
