It was... different. The world was so shitty I was legit-on Joker's side from early in the movie.

Can we turn this into a spoiler thread now?
I want to throw a fan theory at you that makes total sense, particularly because of how it ended.

Sure, I don't care about those non-watching fuckers, after 6 months. Spoilers ahoy.

I think a month is enough time to expect peeps to be careful of spoilers.

Spoiler-ish fan theory follows...
Go back and think about that last scene. It seemed odd didn't it? Like perhaps we went back in time to the beginning or that she was an "anchor" for his story? Well, what if the entire movie, except the stuff in the insane asylum, was nothing more than a figment of Joker's imagination? It completely fits Joker's character as an agent of sheer chaos. One of the best Joker stories wasn't even about him. It was about some other super villain plotting with several others to finally defeat all the heroes, and they had it won, until the Joker showed up. He came to the rescue of the heroes and threw a monkey wrench into everything. Why? Because the villains didn't invite him. The Joker is not a traditional villain or some gangster like that other moron tries to portray him. He's simply batshit fucking insane. Before you start asking, "but what about Bruce Wayne?" Well, Joker knows who Batman is outside of the costume. I forget how he discovered it, but he refuses to acknowledge it. To Joker, Batman is the real person and Wayne is the costume. So Joker inserting Wayne into his day dream works. I thought that was a rather interesting theory.

Todd Phillips, the director, basically confirms nothing in the story is real.
