Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker/YMMV: Difference between revisions

* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]/[[Black Comedy]]/[[Hypocritical Humor]]: When we find out the Dee-Dee twins are {{spoiler|Harleen Quinzel's granddaughters. As we know from the flashback, Harley Quinn basically went along with Joker's plans to kidnap and warp Tim into "Joker Junior" because she couldn't stand the thought of actually carrying & deliverying a baby of her own -- note the disgust on her face and the sarcasm dripping from her voice when she talks about the "joy of childbirth".}} And yet she then went on to have at least one kid of her own the normal way...

** {{spoiler|Of course, there ''IS'' always adoption...}}

* [[Magnificent Bastard]]: Joker, again. One of the rare cases where it overlaps with [[Complete Monster]].

* [[Moral Event Horizon]]: Batgirl calls out Harley for crossing hers by going along with Joker's plan.

'''Batgirl''': [[Sarcasm Mode|Yeah...you're mother of the freaking year]]! }}

** In an odd case of it crossing over into real life, Hamill said that he found this version of the Joker [[Mean Character, Nice Actor|unnerving to do]].

* [[Nightmare Fuel]]: The Joker is this incarnate. The "Joker's back in town" scene and the flashback is enough to convince you with it.

** Particularly the following quote, which was positively ''chilling''...

** When Terry heads back to the Batcave after being assaulted in the nightclub, he finds {{spoiler|the clock smashed, "HAHA"s spray-painted all over the cave (and it's worse in the uncut version of the film; the paint is ''blood red'')}} and worst of all, finding Bruce on the floor by the computer {{spoiler|apparently dead from Joker toxin.}} Possibly, the scariest thing ever in the DCAU.

*** That scene is also a [[Call Back]] to {{spoiler|1=the HAHA's in the first episode of the series, when the (regular) Jokerz murdered Warren McGinnis. Extra trauma for Terry.}}
