Many Americans like to watch movies, specifically comic book based movies. Watching super heroes and villains with abnormal powers bring pleasure, excitement to numerous Americans across the country. The Joker is one of the many villains Americans enjoy watching. Movies like The Dark Knight and Batman have been created based on the Batman comic books, though, the villains in both films have a couple similarities and differences. Through analyzing both villains, it can be evident which Joker is more like the original Joker from the Batman comic books. The Joker from Batman and The Joker from The Dark Knight have both similar appearances and behaviors, but are very different when it comes to their goals.
Throughout the graphic novel, Bruce hides his true sexuality by taking on a false identity for people to
Heroes, the unordinary beings with extravagant abilities, from powers and competence to skills and talents. Heroes are people who are idealized by society for their courage and individuality. Iconic and well recognized heroes like Hercules, Superman, Spiderman and Achilles are some of the few heroes known around. All heroes have a similarity to each other, for example Beowulf and Batman. While both can be considered great heroes, they differ significantly, yet are similar in other ways.
In origin, a hero is an archetype character that refers to protectors, warriors, or god-like man who protects humanity. For instance, Hercules was a hero in Greek mythology. In modern culture, heroism is recognized as an extremely popular trait that a character can possess. In this case, Bat Man, also referred to as The Dark Knight, is indisputably idealized as a hero. Unlike most superheros in comicbooks culture, Bat Man is a simple human being with absolutely no superpowers. Regardless of that, he as a simple human being still exhibits the courage, intelligence, talent and the necessary skills in fighting crime and defeating potentially hazardous villains seeking to either rule the world or cause destruction. In detail, Bat Man’s real name is Bruce Wayne. Bruce was 10 years old when his parents were murdered which fundamentally change his perception about the world. After his parents’ death, Bruce inherited a multibillion dollar company that his father created before his birth, which explains why he has the most advanced technology to help him fight crime. While growing up, Bruce trained himself to fight and had been working out. One night, he came to the conclusion that Gotham city is falling into the hands of criminals. For that reason, he convinced himself that it should be his obligation to prevent it, although he needed a hero identity to hide his real identity
Somebody who had established higher power in their community. Somebody who tried to run from fate, and has the moment of recognition and understanding of their destiny. Batman. Even though he is considered the strong and powerful superhero of Gotham City, Batman's characteristic features show that he relates strongly to that of a "tragic" hero. In the beginning, the Batman is presented at a higher state of appreciation, even though the police see him as a vigilante. Despite his wealth, Batman, otherwise known as Bruce Wayne, is easily relatable to audiences, which makes it easy to sympathize and empathize with the character. Batman is in a constant battle within himself, trying to be the good guy, while defeating the bad guys. His morals prove true when he admits that he won't kill any of the many villians that cause destruction for Gotham City. But, because of this moral, sometimes the villians end up escaping and doing more harm then good. In the end, this interal chaos and internal battle is seen interally and externally through Batman. At the end of the most recent Batman series, The Dark Knight, his exit at the end of the movie is, in essence, his figurative death. Bruce Wayne wants to keep Gotham City safe. And with the "Batman" gone, villians will be least likely to continue to destroy and conquer. As an audience, we cling to the edge of our seats and feel dismay for our beloved superhero and what is to become of
Bruce stayed a man for 64 years because he was too prideful to make the transition to a woman. Bruce stated in his latest interview of Vanity Fair “Bruce always had to tell a lie. He was always living that lie. Every day, he always had a secret from morning ’til night. Caitlyn doesn’t have any secrets”(Ermac 1). Bruce is saying he told a lie everyday because he didn’t feel like he would be accepted into society. Caitlyn told everyone that he is proud of what he is doing. In fact, she said “What I’m doing is going to do some good. We are going to change the world. We are going to make a difference in the world” (Ermac 4). In the end Bruce had mixed emotions from people around the world. Many people accepted him because they were. Caitlyn had pride in her transition because she has worked to hard for everything to quit
The Wayne family returns from the theater on a rainy night, unfortunately though, the shortcut they take is Gotham’s notorious “Crime Alley.” A stray mugger holds up the Wayne Family and takes all of their money, but feeling that it is not enough, he shoots and kills both Dr. Thomas and Martha Wayne. That night, Bruce vows to avenge his parents and wage war against crime. However, unbeknownst to Bruce, his very own father pulls the strings. Thomas connects him with Officer Gordon and Alfred Pennyworth, supplies him with the necessary tools and fabricates his own death in order to harden his son into a crime fighting machine. Bruce is much like Odysseus in his determination to bring justice to criminals and that the heroes’ actions are working for the favor of the masterminds behind them. Athena works through Odysseus in his acts of vengeance to deal out justice because she does not want to shed blood herself.
In the film, “Batman Begins” Bruce Wayne’s journey to become the Batman is explored (Franco, Orleans, Roven, Thomas, Nolan, 2005). This essay applies the theories of Maslow and Bandura, in an effort to determine whose theory makes better sense of Bruce.
He was faced to let the Joker murder a person everyday he didn't come forward or risk his secret identity and the people in his life get killed. While Joker and Batman were arguing Batman asks why Joker hasn't just killed him yet, and Joker was basically saying because it wouldn't be fun, so Batman says “You’re garbage. You kill for money.” Which is true, Batman is there to save innocent people and get rid of the criminals like the Joker. Batman decides to still keep his identity a secret. Batman should have just came forward so that innocent people wouldn't have had to
Bruce always had a home and food, yet it took him a while to find a female partner (Apted, 2006). His safety needs were met once he was older and could take care of himself since the boarding school failed to protect him from other children bullying him. Additionally, Bruce did not experience a sense of belongingness until he was older. He was beaten on by the other children in the school and did not appear to be happy. Once he was older and entered school, he belonged to a student body and a school board. Later in life, Bruce was a member of a cricket team and the father of his family. His esteem was not fully developed until later in life when he was no longer being picked on by others, however he did not believe in himself to play international cricket so whether or not it ever fully developed could be debated. When Bruce reaches old age, he will have reached self-actualization since he appears to have little regrets as to how his life turned out (Larsen & Buss, 2014). He did realize at one point in his life that teaching was not a long term job for him and decided to quit, but if he had not done this he may not have reached self-actualization since he would never have been truly happy with his life (Apted,
...as attacked him; he dares to risk his life in order to rescue the one he loves and also his beloved country.

Both of the movie characters are not giving up and they are willing to sacrifice to save others. ‘No pain, no gain’. They gain their own victory at the end and again, they bring peaceful and justice to the country.

The plot of Batman Begins mainly focuses on the origins and psychology behind Batman, and how he copes with the struggles he faces. One major thing that changed the course of the story, was the death of the Thomas and Martha Wayne. It formed an emotion change in the story that effects Bruce Wayne and all of Gotham to arise the struggles and problems that will be faced in the rest of the movie. Another key point in the story was the seven-year disappearance of Bruce Wayne. When in the Chinese prison it would also discipline him, which was something that he hadn’t had much of before. The meeting of Ras Al Ghul and his further training were also key experiences to develop Bruce Wayne into Batman. These were the some of the building blocks in the plot. The plot of The Dark Knight was very different to Batman Begins. The main plot is that Batman has limits and Gotham needed a different hero, whereas, in Batman Begins, Batman was the hero and didn’t think he had any limits. The foundation of the Dark Knight was more of what had happened in the few absent years between the two movies, and not what would happen. The
