    I might be crazy, but I think Jack Lemmon as Daphne might have been the inspiration for Nicholson's Joker

    I tried.

    I really tried.

    I really tried to get into this weird, meta, sometimes dream-sequence world.

    I really tried to get into this world that constantly has these obnoxious 60s-Batman sound effects on the screen.

    I really tried to understand why women are treated as video game achievements.

    I really tried to find the racist, sexist, and vaguely homophobic humor to be remotely funny.

    I tried to care about the characters.

    I tried to care about the quirky, "I'm depressed" style.

    In conclusion,

    There were a few funny jokes.
