The Dark Knight
The most interesting villain that really fulfills his role
in the film is the Joker. The Joker is the main villain in "The Dark
Knight", where he threatens the good in Gotham’s heroes and figures. In
his first appearance the Joker is made fun of for wearing mysterious makeup on
his face. When robbing the bank his crew kill themselves following the Joker’s
orders. The Joker was respected and feared in a way; in the scene Joker
outsmarts all the clown crew. The rising villain of Gotham is not feared by the
mob if the city, but rather looked as a fool. The Joker the “foolish’ criminal
has no rules, he enters ready to blow everything up along with himself.
Throughout the movie the jester proves himself humored by violence and
corruption of the city. As one character put it the Joker is someone “who just
wants the world to burn,” I honestly believe the Joker is the perfect villain
because isn’t after anything like money or control, like said he wants to see
everyone turn bad. The way the Joker deals with the Batman, the mob, and the city
officials, he always keeps his laugh and enthusiastic attitude; better yet he continuously
smacks his lips when he speaks. The
Joker in fact even looks like a clown; shagged with green messy hair he wears
white makeup all around his face. He has black paint around his eyes to seem
more evil and red paint splashed like a smile around his wide mouth that was
severed with a knife. To me this villain was the perfect villain where he is truly
the dark side of the world; this is why the Joker is the best bad guy out
there.
