How The Joker kills The Dark Knight

Stoked with the coming of The Dark Knight Rises in cinema,I took my time to watch back Batman Begins and The Dark Knight to recall back what had happened in the first two movie of this Christopher Nolan wonderful trilogy and,I came to a conclusion that the second movie of this trilogy,The Dark Knight was the best movie from the trilogy.This is mostly because of the incredible acting  from the late Heath Ledger as The Joker,Ledger's version of Joker is a psychopath that doesn't know fear and he is a very dangerous mastermind.He seeks pleasure by killing innocent people and doing things as if its a game.


Heath Ledger as The Joker
``Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.``- Alfred Pennyworth,The Dark Knight (2008)
 In his battle against The Joker,Batman puts his full effort to catch The Joker but his plans was always a step or two behind The Joker.The Joker's idea can be seen by the make up that he wears.He drew a smile across his lips and white paint all over his face and black eye shadow around his eyes as a motive to scare people.He addressess himself as The Joker,showed that he sees rules as a joke and he wants a create a world without rule,saying its a sensible way to live in this world.

``The only sensible way to live in this world is without rules.``- The Joker,The Dark Knight (2008)
The Joker fenomena were so strong,that people actually looked up to him,seeing him as a hero instead of a villain due to the messages that he gives from the movie.One of the example was the Colorado Massacre on the screening night of The Dark Knight Rises.The gunmen claimed that he was The Joker.The Joker presence in The Dark Knight were so powerful that it affects the plotting of The Dark Knight Rises.
