As much as fans loved Matt Reeves’ noirish take on The Batman, ask many folks what the best ever big-screen Batman movie is, and they’ll answer Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight. A legendary sequel to 2005’s Batman Begins, this epic permanently changed how comic book movies were perceived. Until then, they were seen as fun potential blockbusters but without any artistic merit. When The Dark Knight came along, suddenly, critics started to take the genre seriously.
The movie also became a pop culture phenomenon, skyrocketing director Christopher Nolan to the top of the A-list, establishing Christian Bale as perhaps the definitive screen Batman (to that point), and making Hans Zimmer’s iconic score so influential blockbusters are still knocking it off to this day. However, the most celebrated aspect of the film is, without a doubt, Heath Ledger’s performance as The Joker. Tragically, he would pass away before the film’s release, but he would win a posthumous Oscar and become a pop culture icon whose status hasn’t diminished in the 14 years since the film’s release.
In this episode of DC Revisited, we take a look at the making of Nolan’s classic, examining how the film was cast, the reaction from the MPAA (who almost gave the film an R-rating) and its lasting impact on the pop culture, with it being more than merely a hit film. It was a bonafide phenomenon.

The Character "James Gordon" (Gary Oldman) was the BEST that I have seen in all Batman Movies so far, including "The Batman". There was a "sincere concern and humanity" with this Character and Actor in"The Dark Knight" that no body could touch... From what I "have heard" there may be two other B-Man films in the near future using Pattinson as B-Man. I am hoping for evolution of our favorite characters of the DC/B-Man Universe... Joker, Penguin, Two-Face, Riddle (evolved), Scarecrow, Bane and Poison Ivy! Oh the Evil that "could be"... But maybe introduce "Darkwing" instead of "Boy Wonder/Robin" PLEASE...

This film changed my way of looking at film, not only as entertainment, but most importantly as an art form. I was 12 years old in 2008, to paint you a picture of my taste in film back then, I used to think that the first Transformers and Spider-Man 3 where amazing films, obviously I kept watching the action scenes only. Then one day my mom took me to the opening day of The Dark Knight and everything changed. Something happened after the film ended, I was blown away by it, the story was an emotional roller-coaster, I knew that I've seen my new favorite film, it changed me and it changed my thought of what a movie could be. Ever since this is still my favorite film of all time.

I got to see this epic movie on opening night in Tacoma, WA, my home town. Saw it twice in a row actually. The first show was partially ruined by a pair of punks sitting next to me who woud not stop texting and fucking with their phones. After about a few minutes into the movie and them not responding to courteous requests to knock it off, they were both removed summarily, by myself and another patron and finally the lazy-ass ushers who finally showed up.. One punk threw a swing at me, missed, and hit an usher. I threw th punk to the ground via bouncing his head off the back of a seat.

First show ruined by the punks and us having to talk to mgmt and on-site security and police called due to violence. Got a free large popcorn though. And admittance to next show. The theater played the movie for 24 hours and sold out every show. Fun Fact: The punks who caused all this got arrested again for vandalizing a car in the parking lot. For some reason they thought it belonged to me or the other patron who backed me up.

I enjoyed Heath's portrayal of the Joker, of course, but in my opinion he just played the Joker as someone who is a heroin/opioid addict. Every pill popper or heroin user I ever had the displeasure of knowing or working with had all the same exact mannerisms that he used to play the Joker...things such as the repeated licking the sides of your lips, looking like your half nodding out all the time while tilting your head. So for me, his version will always be a murderous junkie with clown makeup

Ledger elevates this movie to greatness, but I can't watch this film the same way since The Batman was released, which is superior in all other respects. Nolan's Gotham is basically Chicago, well lit, and somewhat bland, rather than Reeves's Gotham being full of gothic noir character, far more faithful to the source material. TDK is less a faithful Batman film but an emotionally distant James Bond movie with a Batman skin, which you may prefer, ofc, but give me the nuanced characters and rich story of Reeves' interpretation. I love the cast of Nolan's Batman trilogy, but The Batman has the edge for me.

I'm surprised you missed this, but Ledger's Joker voice was based off of Tom Waits. And Ledger was a friendly member with the crew, hence the famious photo of him playing with a skateboard over Christian Bale's body. Interviews with Michael Jai White said he would perform his scene with Ledger and he was very giving as an actor even if the amount of work it took to put on the make up would have been replaced with a double in most films. And he should know being Spawn. Glad you noticed the Adam West references, there's a bunch in there that often get missed but are really obvious, like Joker's mask or when he abducts the Gotham News Crew.

I just remember like so many people the backlash to Heath Ledger being announced as the actor to play the joker and all the horrible backlash and nasty comments such as getting a gay cowboy ( in reference to brokeback mountain) to play the role and thinking this too much negativity and people being over the top cos I liked Heath Ledger (personal favourite was his role in the knights tale up to that point)however my personal views was he would have to do a smashing job to beat Jack Nicholsons performance as the joker as me and my brother as laughed and enjoyed his performance. But man after we came out of the cinema saying that movie should be renamed the joker cos my god what a ground shaking performance it was by the great late Heath Ledger just I don’t know where to begin man but also taking his performance aside the supporting cast such as Gary Oldman and Aron Eckhart ( extremely underrated in this movie) the problem this movie had was given Heath Ledgers performance it overshadowed Christian Bale, he did a great job, but just paled in comparison. I would like think in a different universe a scenario where Heath Ledger played the joker opposite to Robert Pattinsons brilliant and my favourite portrayal of the Batman 🤔

I'm in the waaaaay small minority that feels like TDK is a complete let down (outside of Health Ledger's performance). I don't like that Gotham itself has no real Identity of itself. And I feel like the story tries and fails to replicate the story structure of No Country for Old Men Men. As I feel like TDK actually wants Harvey Dent to be the actual Protagonist (similar to Tommy Lee Jones in NCFOM) as the Joker AND Batman are two unchanging forces (something that the joker even alludes to) and Harvey having the only real character arc. Only his story really falls flat, and his ultimate change to two-face is not very impactful.

@@feck2594 story structure. No country's main character is Tommy Lee Jones, despite being in the film for maybe 20 minutes, it is about him and how the case and changing times affect him. he is the main character of the film. I feel like TDK did the same thing as far as structure is concerned, Batman really isn't a character and the Joker isn't a character.. And the Joker even says it at one point, that he is an unstoppable force, and Batman is an unmovable object, and the real character, at least to me, that seems to have an arc.. was Harvey Dent, but his story line was the weakest of the three. I also feel that the movie is about 1/2 hour too long. and perhaps the rush to turn Dent to Two-face in that last 1/2 didn't do his character and storyline much justice.

Stood in the exact spot Heath did on LaSalle st when I visited Chicago. Gave me goosebumps.

Well acted, but bloated, pretensious, derivitive in is writing, and directed with a paint by numbers aproach. This being called a masterpiece only shows how shity movies and audiences become.

Batman Begins is my favorite Batman movie and this is my favorite Joker movie. I think Bale overdid it with the Bat voice in this one, but the power of Heath Ledger is undeniable

They also skipped Steel and Return of the Swamp Thing. But yeah, Superman Returns is a big miss.

Batman Begins was complete garbage. The Dark Knight however was a mind blowing masterpiece. Great movie and Heath Ledger was brilliant as the Joker. Everyone still misses you mate RIP.

It’s a shame that Ledger was really noticed and appreciated after his Joker role. He was known as the “pretty boy Brokeback Mountain guy”. Pretty much how casual movie watchers see Pattison, the “Twilight guy”; even though Pattison has had amazing roles and should already be nominated for an oscar. Let’s not forget “the Gay cowboy” was nominated for that character and was amazing along with Gyllenhall. This is why I don’t stereotype actors. Matthew McConaughey in the early 2000’s was the typical pretty boy in dumb chick flicks but I got to see flashes of greatness in the 90’s with Amistad and A Time To Kill. McConaughey later went back to serious dramas and won an oscar for Dallas Buyers Club.

Everyone says the pencil tricks not possible but that wasnt the point, it was to let you know that this isn't your acid squrting flower, hand shack shocking, winding up explosive toy bombs, fake bang flag guns type of joker, he's not a trickster, he's an evil mastermind genius this was an antagonist like we have ever seen before, thats why the film holds up & reinvented the superhero movie genre & set the gold standard for amazing rewatchable movies like goodfellas & shawshank redemption etc.

Its a bit dark & not my favourite film, but Ledger did deliver his lines excellently

Aaron Eckhart's Dent/TwoFace is an exceptional performance, and often let unmentioned after Ledger's Joker.

I think if not for this movie Ledger would be mostly forgotten. But his death was not shocking. Sad like River Pheonix that another actor imploded before their time.

3:59 Christian Bale will always be the best live action Batman. I couldn’t watch the new Batman movie because of that twilight actor. It ruined the movie for me.
