#9 Why Is The Movie 'Joker' So Popular?

Hey Infinities,
The most popular topic for the most popular character 'Joker' is here. In this article you will get to know the full story of this movie 'The Dark Knight' as well as the characters of this movie.


There are times when a certain character influences you so much that you totally sink yourself into that character. Of all the villains in the history, the Joker is, without a doubt, one of the most enduring and iconic characters.
But why, despite being a psychopathic, nihilistic murderer, is the character so popular - so loved, even? Why do we see that freakish red scar of a smile on so many t-shirts, posters and memes?


The joker is a complicated character. His crimes are not fueled by the desire for money, ambition, or other ordinary motifs. The terror he spreads is ideological and his motivations are philosophical.


Let's start by exploring his origin story. The classic one, revealed in the brilliant comic, "The Killing Joke", is that he was a failed comic trying to make ends meet to support his life with his pregnant wife. He joins a bunch of crooks operating as the Red Hood gang to make easy money. Before, the day of the heist, his wife and unborn child die in an accident . He is forced to commit the crime and in the middle of it is met by the Batman. Startled, he falls into a vat of chemicals in the factory where the crime is taking place and washes up outside the factory rendered insane. It's a pretty traumatic set of incidents that get him going to where h eventually ends up. The events follow the 'one bad day' principle in that all it takes is one lousy day to turn your life upside down.


The Joker is simply an outlet for the Shadow, and such a compelling one that millions have been captivated by him and have vicariously lived out the depravities of their psyche's Shadow. It is preciously because the Joker bombs and murders and corrupts that so many viewers get a kick out of watching him. He acts in ways that we sometimes wish we could, deep down, and we get a vicarious rush out of seeing him indulge in such behavior, without anyone really getting hurt.


Love him or hate him. But you cannot deny the fact he is probably the most lovable villain of the comic world.

The Australian actor that played the role of Joker in 'The Dark Knight' is Heath Ledger. At the time of his death, The Dark Knight was in its editing phase.
With the unique inhuman ability and powerful mind set, The Joker is undoubtedly the best super villain of all times that can't be compared with any other super villains. He's incredible superhuman power made him the most popular and the most admired super villain in the history of DC comics as well as for the Batman.
