The Dark Knight Rises

Mark Hamill's Joker from Batman: The Animated Series was the best.

One of the best statements in this thread. Batman TAS is unreal. Love that they drew it all on black paper to make it darker. I have all four volumes. Batman the Return of the Joker (based off of TAS; it's an animated movie) is the best representation of what the Joker is like in the comics. Hilarious and a psychotic murdering maniac.

Wasn't Talia's objective to destroy the city? Why not just set it off then? Why wait five months?

Did you pay attention to the movie? There were two whole monologues about this. It is not enough to destroy Gotham, they wanted to break Gotham. Give them hope, then kill them. Like they did with Bruce Wayne. Bane thought he took his money, broke his body, then threw him in the pit. That is why when Batman finally beats the **** out of him, he look surprised and says "but I broke you". But you can't break the bat.

Right! I kept reading over this thread and was getting pissed. I saw the movie again tonight and it is clearly stated in the prison scene!
