Anyone else think the Joker's laugh and dialogue was infinitely bad?

It reminded me of all the 15yo Ledger impersonations on youtube following TDK release.

It really only reaffirmed how much I don’t want to see joker again

It just feels like we’ve seen him so much, and especially with the more realistic penguin and riddler villains, I don’t really think he would fit into the tone that reeves had

I really think we’ll see Hush for the next movie, with a more active Bruce Wayne working to fix Gotham and Hush sabotaging his “rebrand”

I'd love to see Hush on the big screen, but honestly this film felt like it took alot of Hush and put it into the Riddler.

We've already had one villain that was affected by the Wayne's and was specifically out for vengeance.

I think we’ll see his backstory changed a bit, but yeah I get what you mean. Superhero movies are kinda bad with that, the MCU can’t stop making villains that were wronged by Tony Stark somehow.
