"Is this my Joker?" Me after any slight inconvenience
"Am I gonna get an Oscar?" got me good
One bad day!
Pallet moving is one of the largest crimes that exist in Gotham City.
*pallets are made out of weeds*
Penguin is good like that. Runs a restaurant, good business man, he is a significant employer and pays well.
Those pallets were meant for the orphanage! How are the orphans going to move their stuff around without those pallets? Monsters.
Pallets arent evil....it is how we use them.
they stole them from pallet town of course
My favorite part is that they aren't even breaking the law, like, they are literally just moving pallets.
@Valkyrie Quinn but they're not weapons or drugs or anything illegal tho unless the wood came from an illegal forest then it would be illegal but they might have bought em so they don't know it's illegal

He'd probably swoop in, they'd charge him, he'd beat them up and ask them where penguin is and what he's moving.
@@pedropedrohan102 pretty sure they are delivering those pallets so they can transport illegal goods later

I think a movie about a man who believed he was a nameless extra/side character in someone else's film would actually be super interesting. He takes a journey throughout his entire life by experiencing as if he was the main character, meeting people from his whole life for the first time, having goals, etc.

@@Game_Hero That movie came out after this comment was made, apparently some director was really moved by this Haver skit
@@smarrkidd5538 It's too bad that movie is the same action/romance blend we've been getting for years on end. It adds nothing new except "NPC defeats random MMO player and discovers the world he's actually in". Sounds interesting at first, but quickly becomes one stale piece of cinema.

Batman's idea of striking fear into the hearts of villains seems to be working pretty well if everyone seems to have PTSD from just mentioning Batman.

This is just Shadow of war

He hauls pallets, stands around in the rain and then proceeds to get into bed wearing the SAME JACKET! He really is the villain.

No his wife just gets off on it. She calls him a filthy animal and then pretends to be scared and asks him what he's gonna do.
"Who are those" *swaggiest poses ever seen*
I love the subtle clever comedy bits sprinkled throughout this video. Like when the van rear-ended the one right in front of it carrying the cargo. That simple avoidable mistake was a nice touch to add to their incompetence through creative action

Hello Mr. Reporter
If you unsubscribe now, you'll look like one piece of...trash
"the audience is endeared to me" indeed, we are. He has a wife and kids, Batman you cant beat up a man with a wife and kids.
Sure he can. Someone needs to train the next generation of Batman.
No, you just can't beat up a man that you KNOW has a wife and kids. it's Schrödinger's goon, he's fine to beat up before his character becomes developed enough to find out.
i mean thats one of the reasons batman doesn't kill because he doesn't want those kids to grow up without a father or that mother to be alone
He has more Plot Power than The Joker now
Bet his wife's name is Martha

@@AfferbeckBeats Yeah...true but you're forgetting vengeance and the night.
The opening of the newest batman movie reminded me of this. Literally every gazing into dark shadows had me thinking "that isn't the batman. Its just a stack of boxes" 😂
This is basically what the opening scene of The Batman was about. He doesn't need to show up; just the fact that he exists is enough to terrify crooks. "It's a big city. I can't be everywhere. But they don't know where I am."
This feels like it’s in the same universe as the RPG, and these are the NPCs who are playing without the human player.
When you leave the game running when you go out shopping
maybe the rpgs take place in gotham during medieval times
The AFK Knight series.
I am starting to think we watch similar things.
you should voice-act for Joel Haver, your voice would be great for this kinda stuff
I was 100% expecting the lights to turn back on with Batman as his wife.
Great B-roll ending idea!
I was legit expecting the video to deliver what the title promised, and for him to just go to sleep with his wife with no show from Batman in any form. But honestly my expectations were closer.
This aged well
Literally the beginning of The Batman.
Is the helicopter implying that the Bat Signal is actually made out of solid metal?
I don't think helicopters can imply but I don't know enough about helicopters to confidently dispute it.
I think the bat signal is implying the helicopter is made out of light
I think the light is implying the bat signal is made out of helicopter... No wait
I think Joel is implying that he was influenced by Terry Gilliam.
The bat signal is made out of solid bat.
The paranoia he gives is stronger than any scarecrow fear toxin
Funny you should mention, cuz the ending of Arkham Knight touches upon that.
@@spookhy699 Never saw that. I got too tired of dealing with those lame Batmobile missions.
@@spookhy699 its debatable about who it is though, as it could be argued Batman left and Azrael was taking his place like in the comics. Or, that batman faked his death and is using the toxin to make criminals think hes back from the dead
I love how the Penguin desperately needs a shipment of pallets. 😂

@@thecoolyoyo5353 .-.
I love that the word pallets just means pallets. Not pallets of cash, drugs or gold, but just empty wooden pallets.
In this universe The Penguin is sending them to an evil wood shop where his goons turn them into furniture and shit to sell on social media to basic people. It eventually has an evil twist, I guess.
@@ajragle evil etsy
They're reclaiming the wood for a community garden that penguin is using as a tax write off
These henchmen are the ones that send the pallets to the places that THEN use them for EVIL. Someone’s gotta do it in this self-perpetuating cycle of crime and poverty. They’re at least safe in their low positions in the shipments, the middle ones are usually designated as the “cannon-fodder” positions. The “bat shivers” they have are debilitating, the poor souls
The Penguin wasn’t very clear in his instructions.
"We never really had names before." - every Batman thug ever.
He's not used to making it this far into the show and all this character development. This guy is a genius lool
“The audience is endeared to me” is probably the greatest line that sums up how to stop good guys
Well , okay. Nevermind
"Endeared" works the other way around. You hold someone dear, they are endeared to you. So if the audience is endeared to him, that means he holds the audience dear. That's why when someone does something that makes you like them, they are doing something endearing.
@@Ozymandias2x you actually have it backwards. You hold someone dear, they are dear to you. Flora's spirit and character endeared her to everyone who met her.
@@noiseisgold3n42 What you said is correct, but I don't see where it contradicts what I said? You just described the other side of it.
I like how he goes to bed wearing his thuggin clothes, never anticipating a life after the palletes
you look for the sauce but you get lost in the sauce too
thuggin clothes lol
@Jacob Smith no one cared who I was until I picked up a pallet
I love how he’s aware about the movie “joker” and that it won an Oscar despite the fact he lives within the DC comics universe

''The audience is endeared to me'' almost killed me man
That just means the author's going to kill him either during the climax or at the start of the new season, just to establish the latest villain as the "Bad Guy."
Same. He really came to terms with being an actual person instead of a faceless goon - although still wearing the same clothes going to bed was a great touch too. :D
@@TheRenofox yeah I was happy the goon accomplished his mission

Fun fact: Owls are berds
Why is nobody talking about his kids? Their sudden second long appearance caught me off guard and the fact that he just instantly accepts that he now has a wife and kids really got to me. I also love how silent and unmoving they are. It's incredible.
These henchmen sprang into existence during the first scene. They were expecting to be severely beaten by Batman and then their roles in the film would be over and they would cease to exist. But, since Batman got the wrong address, the film kept following the henchman, so his wife and kids popped into existence to make him the main character now because Batman was late.
Children should be seen and not heard.

@@Semudara based on the jacket and lack of hat it's the guy who gave bruiser and stinger their names.

The animation in these videos hits the perfect spot of the uncanny valley or something like that. They're a trip.
When you’re so used to being foiled by Batman that you literally don’t know how to proceed with your crime dealings
It doesn't sound like they even really know what crime is any more, unless those pallets were made out of illegal rain forest wood or something.
Wait what lol
Yeah, you go from jumping at every shadow that looks like Batman... to moving pallets without a hitch for once!

The true villain was humanities reliance on Google Maps all along 😱
Batman: What do you mean go left in 100 feet I'd drive into a building!
I imagine, like a lot of big cities, Google maps is a bit wacky in some places. You take the wrong turn or the address points you down the street instead of at the actual place you routed to. Batman knows uptown and downtown but it's in the middle where he gets all confused and he always misses his exits cause people won't let him over.

Love how the guy could find his way home but not recognize his wife and kids, like "Look, I didn't expect to get this far through the day without being like.. you know, beaten to a coma without even being shown any humanizing parts like having a family..."
he actually woke up in the scene, no memory of previous events
He didn't find his way home, they just cut to it. It's like being in a movie is just a normal part of this world and everyone's in on it haha
