Fuck yeah Jaime!

I freaking want this game now!

So, how do you take an awesome premise like an animated adaptation of "The Killing Joke" and COMPLETELY FUCK IT UP?


... you add a sex scene between Bruce & Barbara.

...Why?!

I love the Batman Brave and the Bold elements that are shown.
This could be entertaining.

I hope this is false. Because if this is true, that means this is the reason they made the movie R.

The scene has been leaked online since earlier today and has been confirmed. So this is a thing now.

I doubt this is why it was made R. Considering some of the imagery in the graphic novel and even some of the themes it was always going to require either an R or an Unrated. However I wouldn't be surprised if they just threw the scene in to help fill out the rating. If anything this and an apparent scene which shows Bruce saying the moment meant nothing just spoils my anticipation and want to watch the movie, and I was originally planning on buying it day one. Now? I'll probably just get it from the library and skip the prologue where this stuff takes place and just watch the actual adaptation of the comic.

I was thinking of just searching for it streaming online or something. Horrible thing to do, I'll admit, but just the presence of those two scenes really soured my tastes.

I hope the rest of the movie is faithful to the comic, though.

So I guess this was what Bruce Timm meant when he said the team had to "add a lot more story" for the the film because the source novel wasn't long enough for a feature-length film.

This is really stupid and pointless.

I've seen people trying to defend it by saying that because Bruce and Barbara's relationship happened in the animated series/comics (mainly the batman beyond ones I believe), the film is accurate. No! The Killing Joke or an event strikingly similar to it hasn't been referenced in any of the Timmverse animated series or comics so it's not accurate (as far as I know).

Also, some say that Bruce needed extra motivation to stop the Joker. He's the Joker. That's all the motivation he needed. Even if they wanted to use Barbara as motivation, the incident itself would've been enough, not because of a supposed one-off relationship that isn't in the original source material.

I'll still watch it and hope the rest of the film is faithful to the source material but this is really pointless...

Urgh. I love Bruce Timm and the DCAU but I've always hated how much he tried to shove that pairing down audience's throats.
