What makes this so deep, in my opinion, is that: in a way, joker really does need batman because he was the biggest thing that helped joker cling on to what little sanity he had left. Joker saw beating batman as his purpose in life, and now that he's lost batman forever, he can't handle it.
"...I need you..." - Mark Hamill's final lines as the Joker. Fuck, I'm seriously depressed right now. You know the creators have done something right when you get teared up seeing your favorite psychopath soar into oblivion. Deep.
BloodyFlowerFilms The symbolism is strong here. The entire game itself was just batman in mid-life crisis / identity issues. Not just the external stuff happening around. (If you gaze deep enough) Bruce realizes despite wanting to get rid of his greatest enemy - but without joker...he final line "I need you." Hits its real good in the feels. Even Batman got the feels. Batman realizes he cannot exist without the other, and samewise for joker albeit he's already gone, but the projected spirit within him/ whether the joker blood can be interpreted as either a real/metaphorical/mental/or just plain imaginary, it didn't matter. Such Opposite/Similarity/Dualism themes, if you see the game through and through, you can feel the themes. It's like that fan-comic "The Deal", it so alludes to it. Batman really died when the Joker died. (Back then in Arkham City) spiritually. But this step through realization, set him free not without regret. But Death and Rebirth is kinda a theme I'm seeing. But back to why they need each other, each other fuels one another. You can even say this game's ending is open to more interpretation. But one theme strikes me most, they have their own ways of dealing and doing things but always end up meeting each other, but the hidden theme is real, their identities as batman and joker. Their interactions, their rivalry, everything. It reveals their true inner nature; the need for each other and what they are to each other and the way they see themselves and why they're like this. Fueled by above^ Anything can be true up to anyone's own interpretations on the entire game/ ending /aftermath. But this scene, hits me so hard. I just lost it and wanted to write this wall of text full o' feels. > Haven't played the entire game nor experienced the entire story, but man this scene...
Kyle friend, you should play the game better. Joker was not an hallucination and that "i need you" was from the real joker. I dont understand, not for you but in general, how such a pretty clear story (they did a return of the joker remake with the fear gas in the middle) so much people dont understand.. Even nowadays.
Every decision he ever made ended with death and misery people die, he's stopped, and he would just break out and do it again. Joker lost for good this time.
maan you said the same opinion that i told myself after passing that section, also the part where you see the statue behind you for the first time is scary too
Batman's deepest fear made total sense. He was always afraid of his skills being twisted should he ever start killing and the joker is the worst example of killing and mania in the DC universe
The early days of the comic. He hung a guy from the Batwing, crushed a gangster in a garbage truck, burned henchmen alive in a junkyard, and starved the KGBeast to death
I really wish that Azreal could have been in the roster for one of the Injustice games. I want to see how he fights. I know you take control of him for certain side missions in this game, but he just imitates Batman's fighting style, so it just feels like a re-skin.
+Charles Hershey Making me think about Atrocitus' words in ''Green Lantern: Emmerald Knights''. He said: "There are things worse than death.". I guess I see two reasons why: *You die and nobody remembers you, your existance and your name. *The face/image of who/what you hate or fear the most being the last thing you see before you die.
So he’s essentially Freddy Krueger. A dead guy who haunts your nightmares and feeds on your fear and his only weakness is to forget about him. He can’t come back, if nobody remembers him, he can’t come back if nobody’s afraid.
No, Bruce, wait! don't leave me! Please! I need you.. Hits so much harder now. Knowing that Mark Hamil's Joker truly lost his Batman. Rest in peace Kevin Conroy. You are and forever will be my Childhood Batman.
kento delmonte mawaribuchi My animated series childhood had me screaming the whole line with him as he said it lol. Batman: "I am vengeance, I am the night!" Me: "I AM BATMAN!!!!!!!!!"
Something I love about this sequence is how the player has spent the entire game listening to the Joker's ghost/manifestation of Bruce's illness and fear toxin, whatever , make these VERY petty dark jokes about Barbara's paralysing, Jason Todd's torture, etc. Then for a brief time you get to see it reciprocated with Batman tormenting Joker with petty things like "Harley marrries Riddler" and Penguin being his greatest enemy. So funny and satisfying.
@@user-ww2rq9dd4qI mean he did murder hundreds if not thousands of people tortured his son infected him with clown cancer and tried to take over his mind yeah I be pretty pity too
This….. this hits heavily with Kevin’s passing Mark Hamill himself said “ Without Kevin I’m never Voicing Joker again.” This really reminded me when Joker says “ I Need You.” It was more so real mark needed Kevin to bring those I love characters to life rest in peace, Kevin Conroy
Who is the final boss? Batman. Who are you playing as when fight the final boss? Joker. Now that's a good horror game. Imagine being Joker fight against Batman. They need to make a Horror game where the main enemy is Batman sometime.
Yeah that a interesting concept, I can see it being like alien isolation with the mechanic of a an unkillable enemy hunting you down, except said enemy can see you and all you can do is run and prolong the inevitable using your teammates and hostages as means to draw Batman attention away from you, giving you time to escape into the next area.
I actually felt really bad for the Joker. I felt like no other Gotham villain, not even the superpowered ones could give Batman the kind of challenge that Joker could. For real, I got hit right in the feels.
Honestly not even sure if Riddler would be healthier for Harley. On one hand, he wouldn't abuse Harley, but on the other, the guy never shuts the fuck up. Then again, neither does Harley. ....on second thought, never mind. They deserve each other LOL
I have to wonder just how much Batman truly enjoyed this. After years of always defeating and sparing the Joker just for him to escape and torment Batman further, and now it's HIS turn to troll and psychologically torment him and he pours years and years' worth of hate and spite into building the ultimate nightmare world for the Joker.
You know, I used to think that Joker was some kind of supernatural enemy. He appears out of thin air: No name, no past, no mention of his life before he became a Super-Villain. He liked to present himself as an agent of chaos and destruction. His fearsome reputation added further to his ego. Yet, for all his struggles, for all his murders and all the destruction he sowed - like all serial killers, like all those would-be tyrants and lunatics, he died just the same. I have come to realize that the Joker was just a man. Nothing more.
actually joker does have a name and backstory, he was a simple thug that batman accidentally threw him in a pit of acid that deformed him and he gone insane after seeing what he looked like
Taking one of the scariest and most insane villains, making him live his greatest fear little by little, and finally beating him by making it happen. And this, children, is why Batman got a Yellow Power Ring.
Came here to double check and I was right. This is the suspended isolation chamber Joker rode away atop in the opening sequences of Arkham Asylum. Same zoom as the doors closed and everything. I love the attention to detail and the added poetic justice that Rocksteady built into this final scene. Really shows how much they loved making these games and how it made them that much better because of it.
This may be because in Arkham Asylum Joker allowed Batman one chance to kill him but the latter refrained from doing so. So when Batman finally defeats him, the chamber may be symbolised that Batman finally “killed” him in his mind.
@@Windbrindle Don't worry about it, let's just forget about him and move on. Did you hear about that museum being opened in honor of Batman and his arch-nemisis The Penguin?
I felt no remorse for him. Only joy for seeing such a horrible monster finally beaten, broken, doomed to be forgotten and left alone, screaming where no one can hear.
@@princessroxyvincenzo9880 No, Joker is dead and the world will move on without him. And in a few years, he’ll be little more than a story of another psycho that Batman put down. Joker failed. Batman wins.
I understood what happened. Batman chasing the spirit of Joker, the Joker will surely result remained locked in whatever can never come out but one thing is on it will probably become even crazier after 50 years of eternity in there.
You would think that after two minutes shooting batmen, he'd realize that the poin is turning around and seeing even more batmen behind you. Not staring forward endlessly, shooting a statue five times. It really brings down the intensity of the scene
His last words really tells you alot about how he thinks of Batman and their relationship. Every crime and every murder he committed, he did it for Batman. His life and his existence was entirely depended on his worst enemy. Without Batman, there would be no Joker.
Yeah, I think if he slowed down in saying his famous line it would've sounded better. In this scene, it was like Conroy wanted to say the line and get it over with.
Kevin Conroy is a 65-year-old man. Of course his Batman voice isn't going to be as powerful as it was in Animated Series, the Justice League cartoon or any animated movies he voiced Bruce Wayne/Batman in. Either learn to appreciate what he gives you as a fan and stop being an ungrateful snob or just stop supporting him as a voice actor. Sheesh.
Really Awesome to Hear Conoroy say that Quote Again since after the Animated Series S1 Episode Nothing To Fear in this Game "I AM VENGEANCE, I AM THE KNIGHT, I AM BATMAN !!!!!
YES! Even in the same situation where he is fighting Scarecrow (in the Animated Series he is trying to capture Crane), and even in the similar situation where Batman is fighting his own fear (in the Animated Series, he is afraid of being a disgrace to his father, where in the game he is afraid of being the Joker).
+Jakemufcfan I'm laughing right now. I'm laughing because this is the first time the Joker started to beg and grovel to Batman. Begging not to be forgotten by Batman. Serves him right for what he did to Jason.
6:14. This hits so different when you realize this is kevin conroy and mark hamill's last interaction as batman and joker....because Mark Hamill's Joker does need Kevin Conroy's Batman to exist. And it's like a last plea to stay with him."Goodbye Joker"..... "I need you"
Just the way Joker talks to himself you could tell it really is the Joker and not a hallucination. How he was able to transfer his consciousness through his infected blood, I'll never know.
It was random bullshit comic logic that didn't even really need to be in the game in the first place. They literally set the whole thing up as Batman's worst fear taking over, but then throw the Joker plague in there. Maybe they couldn't think of anything else for Harley Quinn to do.
Michale Barney No I'm just a person who believes in poetic justice. Also, let's not forget that the Joker is the architect of Batman's suffering. Especially what he did Jason Todd and Barbara Gordan. So I feel no sympathy for the Joker.
While it sounded sad the way Joker said I need you, he fucking deserved it. Don't get me wrong, the Joker is without a doubt is one of the greatest villains in fiction, but he's pure evil man who brings death and chaos because it entertains him. This defeat of the character actually makes sense, as the Joker usually potrayed as a force of nature, however this scene perfectly illustrates that while the Joker was definitley the most dangerous terrorist of Gotham City, he was just a man. A man who was afraid of being forgotten.
Does anyone else wanna know what happened to joker after this? Like if he was still aware of what was happening and was still alive inside that cell inside Batman’s mind whilst Bruce just lived the rest of his life or just died instantly after the eye bit. Cause it’s been 5 years since the game and I still wanna know
“You’re afraid of being ashes, you’re afraid of being forgotten, and you will be forgotten Joker… BECAUSE OF ME!” “I am vengeance, I AM THE KNIGHT! I AM BATMAN!”
And so Joker had to essentially live the rest of his “life” locked away in Batman’s psyche never to be seen or heard from again. He could no longer influence anything and he could no longer act on anything. All he had left now was his own insanity to keep him company.
looks like Batman finally got rid of Joker in his mind..for good...Batman's like already close to being dead....being injected with Scarecrow's toxin fear gas
Damn I just did this part yesterday, made me so sad. :( Still I think the Joker would never be forgotten. :) And he might just come back one day if someone whacks Bruce over the head in just the right way... :D
I always thought that if they ever did an Arkham game set in the Batman Beyond era, this would be a perfect setup for a Return of the Joker DLC. Yes, he didn’t do anything to Tim Drake in this continuity, but he did do something to Batman. And along with dealing with The Joker, he’d also be fighting with his own mentor.
At the end of Arkham Knight both Batman and Joker are essentially dead. Yet while Batmans legacy lives and thrives, Joker remains dead and forgotten Just a nightmare from which Gotham has finally woken up. After all their battles, all the chaos and justice between them, in death Batman finally triumphs over the Joker for good. His last laugh failed and Gotham moves on. Defeated by Justice, the Clown Prince of Crime is gone.
I thought that Batman was gonna jump from the sky and knock me out was gonna happen but him jumping out of the stone was so scary especially because it was random!
What makes this so deep, in my opinion, is that: in a way, joker really does need batman because he was the biggest thing that helped joker cling on to what little sanity he had left. Joker saw beating batman as his purpose in life, and now that he's lost batman forever, he can't handle it.

Really Awesome to Hear Conoroy say that Quote Again since after the Animated Series S1 Episode Nothing To Fear in this Game "I AM VENGEANCE, I AM THE KNIGHT, I AM BATMAN !!!!!
YES! Even in the same situation where he is fighting Scarecrow (in the Animated Series he is trying to capture Crane), and even in the similar situation where Batman is fighting his own fear (in the Animated Series, he is afraid of being a disgrace to his father, where in the game he is afraid of being the Joker).
Agreed !!!!
No more laughs
+Jakemufcfan I'm laughing right now. I'm laughing because this is the first time the Joker started to beg and grovel to Batman. Begging not to be forgotten by Batman. Serves him right for what he did to Jason.
And Barbara and everyone he's ever hurt over the years but especially Jason
Jakemufcfan Mostly Jason. I mean he was branded to the face with Joker's initials. Joker deserves this. Even something much worst.
Jason got through it though he redeemed himself and became a hero despite it protecting people as red hood
Jakemufcfan He could at least cut off the Joker brand off his face just for some ounce of closure.
Looks like this time batman got the last laugh
The Joker became immortal. But what good is immortality if nobody remembers you?
I find it funny that The Joker ended up being the central antagonist once again despite being dead.
Joshua Nelson dont u mean scarecrow
@@immaasshole4964 No it was joker..
@@immaasshole4964he meant joker
"Don't leave me..."
.
Well this did not aged well 😢
We all need Kevin Conroy back. 😔
In a way its true... Hamill said he won't do joker without Conroy 😔
@@quincyislegit he was done voicing joker anyway
Joker tryna act like he never disrespected Harley, so he deserves it💀
Harley lowkey annoying asf tho
As a kid we love heroes, as adult we understand villains 🤧😔
Love the way you framed the radio segment
to quote freddy krueger from freddy vs jason Being dead wasn't a problem, but being forgotten; now that's a BITCH.
6:15 hits different now
"I need you...."
Goodbye Joker don’t ever come back ever again because your forgotten
6:22 still gives me chills
6:14. This hits so different when you realize this is kevin conroy and mark hamill's last interaction as batman and joker....because Mark Hamill's Joker does need Kevin Conroy's Batman to exist. And it's like a last plea to stay with him."Goodbye Joker"..... "I need you"
"This is how it happened, this is how The Joker died" (Harley Quinn voice) Mister Jay
Feel like I’m the only one that laughed when joker said “crispy”
For me, that scene is unique. Represent very Well a analogy about depression and fear been defeated. That’s the reason i like so much
Hearing joker saying "I need you" just made me feel bad for him, this shit honestly gave me memories of a little someone that i actually forgot
If you think about it, Joker is with this, still not gone, but exists still in Batmans mind, even though he is trapped in its deepest levels
When he said i need you ,that will work on batman
Just the way Joker talks to himself you could tell it really is the Joker and not a hallucination. How he was able to transfer his consciousness through his infected blood, I'll never know.
It was random bullshit comic logic that didn't even really need to be in the game in the first place.
They literally set the whole thing up as Batman's worst fear taking over, but then throw the Joker plague in there. Maybe they couldn't think of anything else for Harley Quinn to do.
I need you, too, Joker…
I laughed when The Joker said "I need you" in a sound of desperation.
cancerjuly1989 ...you're sicker than Joker.
Michale Barney No I'm just a person who believes in poetic justice. Also, let's not forget that the Joker is the architect of Batman's suffering. Especially what he did Jason Todd and Barbara Gordan. So I feel no sympathy for the Joker.
While it sounded sad the way Joker said I need you, he fucking deserved it. Don't get me wrong, the Joker is without a doubt is one of the greatest villains in fiction, but he's pure evil man who brings death and chaos because it entertains him. This defeat of the character actually makes sense, as the Joker usually potrayed as a force of nature, however this scene perfectly illustrates that while the Joker was definitley the most dangerous terrorist of Gotham City, he was just a man. A man who was afraid of being forgotten.
Same. Joker is cruel psycho, he well-deserved eternal suffering
Does anyone else wanna know what happened to joker after this? Like if he was still aware of what was happening and was still alive inside that cell inside Batman’s mind whilst Bruce just lived the rest of his life or just died instantly after the eye bit. Cause it’s been 5 years since the game and I still wanna know
Jokers and batman death
Joker being someone who wants attention and is afraid of being forgotten will always be better than him being portrayed as some force of nature.
the fact i knew batman was going to popup in the statue section yet it still scared me is something.
“You’re afraid of being ashes, you’re afraid of being forgotten, and you will be forgotten Joker… BECAUSE OF ME!”
“I am vengeance, I AM THE KNIGHT! I AM BATMAN!”
I love how you switch from joker to Batman because it symbolizes him retaking his mind from joker
Oh but Joker...
No one gets off Mr. Bones' Wild Ride.
When did batman become a weeping angel?
And so Joker had to essentially live the rest of his “life” locked away in Batman’s psyche never to be seen or heard from again. He could no longer influence anything and he could no longer act on anything. All he had left now was his own insanity to keep him company.
When you realize that’s the first time Batman actually respond to the joker
looks like Batman finally got rid of Joker in his mind..for good...Batman's like already close to being dead....being injected with Scarecrow's toxin fear gas
He hasn't disappeared he still locked in the mind of the batman
I took my time putting Joker in the cell, had to relieve my emotions for Jason Todd
This music is so perfect.
This definitely speaks volumes now...may the greatest rest..
It was beautiful when The Bat finally got rid of that clown.
I am vengeance...
I am the KNIGHT
I AM BATMAN
5:50 Iconic line
5:32 was by far an op moment for Kevin Conroy
6:22 I think "Go to Hell, Joker" would have made a better farewell line.
Nothe really, saying goodbye to him is a way of letting his 'bond' with Joker go.
Batman bond joker
I assume there was something in the fear toxin that unintentionally cured Batman of the joker blood
What's joker doing behind the Arkham Asylum treatment door when he was sent away?
I have the same fear as joker being forgotten
Does this mean batman is cured from jokers blood
farhaan telvis Yes.
CheesyGranola Good, because I was getting really annoyed by him.
it kinda ruins arkham city ending
farhaan telvis How?
Spoilers!! since joker died in arkham city he shud have stayed that way the dev shud not have even showed him in AK!!
Damn I just did this part yesterday, made me so sad. :( Still I think the Joker would never be forgotten. :) And he might just come back one day if someone whacks Bruce over the head in just the right way... :D
I always thought that if they ever did an Arkham game set in the Batman Beyond era, this would be a perfect setup for a Return of the Joker DLC. Yes, he didn’t do anything to Tim Drake in this continuity, but he did do something to Batman. And along with dealing with The Joker, he’d also be fighting with his own mentor.
shadowsteed15 This sounds like a possible origin story for The Batman Who Laughs in this timeline.
This is for jason✊😤👺
I won't forget you Joker. You are a best Supervillain in Batman's World.
His best performance since Return of the Joker.
It says "I hate Frankie" on Joker's wall. Probably another reason Joker betrayed and murdered Frank Boles rather than simply outliving his usefulness
At the end of Arkham Knight both Batman and Joker are essentially dead.
Yet while Batmans legacy lives and thrives, Joker remains dead and forgotten
Just a nightmare from which Gotham has finally woken up.
After all their battles, all the chaos and justice between them, in death Batman finally triumphs over the Joker for good.
His last laugh failed and Gotham moves on. Defeated by Justice, the Clown Prince of Crime is gone.
I thought that Batman was gonna jump from the sky and knock me out was gonna happen but him jumping out of the stone was so scary especially because it was random!
