Why Batman 1989"s Big Joker Twist Can Never Be Beaten

There's plenty to love about 1989's Batman starring Michael Keaton as the titular Dark Knight, especially its major Joker twist which will never be beaten. Played by Jack Nicholson who provided the first truly dark on-screen portrayal of the Clown Prince of Crime, the script featured compelling deviations from Joker's origins in the comics. Likewise, one change in particular was so good, no future Batman movie will likely ever attempt to mirror it.
In 1989's Batman from director Tim Burton, the Joker's original identity is confirmed to be Jack Napier, a Gotham gangster who inadvertently falls into a vat of chemicals following his first altercation with Keaton's Batman. While the identity reveal was a major change from the comics' Joker whose past is largely a mystery, it allowed for an even bigger twist for the Burtonverse. As revealed via flashbacks, it was revealed in a major twist that Napier was the one who killed Bruce Wayne's parents, rather than the classic small-time criminal Joe Chill in the original comics.
