The Killing Joke Is Officially Batman’s First R-Rated Film

To downplay the emotional impact of DC Universe Animated Original Movies simply because they’re animated would be an egregious mistake. For years, DC has been making animated films that have resonated with fans, and oftentimes these adaptations are far better — and more faithful to the source material — than their live-action counterparts. Batman: The Killing Joke will be no exception.

The DC Original Movie franchise’s latest animated film, Batman: The Killing Joke, will truly be its darkest project yet, and it has the official MPAA rating to prove it. According to EW, the direct-to-video animated film based on the divisive Alan Moore comic has been given an R rating. The Killing Joke marks the first film in the DC Universe Original Movie franchise to be rated R — and the second Batman movie to do so, after the extended home-release of Zack Snyder’s Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice later this year.

This wasp was stuck on the inside of the screen so I tilted it so he could be free.

Dork stopped for 30 seconds to clean himself.

Maggie and friend have been fed and now are off shooting videos. The bad news is that I forgot to get ice cream when I was at the store. It looks like we’ll have to go to Dairy Queen for the second day in a row. Because that’s what you do when you’re me.

Me to the cat: Get outta the cabinet.

Amazon Alexa on the counter: I used to have a few bugs but they got squashed.

So apparently she’s going to start interjecting herself into my conversations from now on.

Side note 1: I have an Amazon Tap because I want to be able to take it to any room in the house. It requires hitting the microphone button, which oddly enough I don’t recall doing when she interjected a few moments ago.

Side note 2: Voice activating computing is the next big thing in the home. And probably the car next.
