Will never happen, Batman's most iconic villain will be a central figure in one of these movies
HBO DC's The Batman 🦇

Let’s…not basic bitches as far as fans now
also I feel like you’re speaking to the fact that you don’t care about “lesser” characters so there might be some slight bias to what you’re saying
I'm all for seeing Hush, Firefly and all those lesser villains but to not have Batman's greatest foe I just don't see that happening.
I'll rather have Deathstroke in a movie to be honest
Where’s the incentive to include joker in a movie? Why do y’all keep acting like you can’t tell a handful of movies without the joker?
It's not like Spiderman where he doesn't have a set #1 foe so you can pull any of Spidey's bad guys and put them in a movie and people wouldn't trip but Joker is too iconic to not have them battle. Batman and Joker will forever be joined at the hip
I could understand that being the case if there hasn’t been a Joker on screen about 4x in the past 14 years (more if you include TV movies) or if the movie that didn’t feature the joker wasn’t successful
But nothing you’re saying is telling me why he NEEDS to be included
I get it people like the joker but come on man lol batman doesn’t drop anywhere just because joker isn’t around

If this ends up being a trilogy...best believe Joker is going to be in the either pt. II or pt.III. The casual fans...the comic book fans...the DC stans...the Hollywood elites...the studio execs ALL gonna want Joker in this version of Batman.
From a business standpoint...it makes sense. If the studio wanna maximize the success of the 1st movie...Joker is definitely needed.
Joker is needed b/c the fans wanna see it. If he's not...we all know the backlash will come from it. Regardless if they're casual or comic book. If he's not...folks gonna feel like it's a wasted opportunity.
I'd save him for a 3rd film tho. Like I said b4, the CoO is perfect for this version. Someone mentioned Hush. Thats another good one.

My biggest thing as a Batman fanatic. Where are folks getting Joker has to be in the stories, we already got like 3 of them, lets show some of the other dope villain characters we havent seen too much outside the animation.

The Joker is different in every movie though, so it’s not the same shit over and over again. The anticipation of which version we get is the draw.
When Dark Knight came out all of the discussion was around their version of the Joker.
Y'all complaining about Gotham's top villain, Du wanna see a sidekick trilogy, I'm glad y'all not running things

i hear you but I don’t care dude. The anticipation of the version we get? It’s all some weak version of what Ledger did. It’s tired. They can do without joker for a decade.
here’s a spoiler for you: if he’s in a movie, he won’t ever be killed or die

While he may be the top... he's not the ONLY... so theres no reason they have to keep going back to the Joker like he's the end-all be-all when theres plenty others to explore
I agree they should use those characters but Joker should always be the end game
That suicide squad and that stand alone joker movie shouldn't count
That’s the stupidest shit you’re going to say all day lol
