I'm melting, i'm melting

Nothing more than that line from Jack.

[The Joker]

That's what I always thought.  Which leads me to another point - was there a scene (planned or filmed) with Alica being scared with acid that the Joker could be referencing?

I've never heard, or read anything about that scene being planned or filmed.

As dark as Batman 1989 was, especially compared to what the public only knew Batman as being the Adam West version, a scene like that may have been a bit much for audiences to take in.

But let's just say for arguments sakes, that the scene was indeed filmed. It probably would have been ultimately cut from the theatrical version. I could easily see a scene like that stopping the movie cold in it's tracks. With people talking about what they had just seen. Much like the infamous "Spider Crab" scene from the 1933 King Kong.

Hmmm, I always thought he was mimicking the scene from Wizard of OZ where the witch is melted with a bucket of water. I always thought he was saying "what a world" like the witch does while melting.

Hi guys I am new here and I think the site is great by the way.

But I always thought the Joker was imitating the witch from wizard of oz.

I thought he was saying 'I'm melting, oh I'm melting, oh I'm melting I'm melting down

[THE BAT-MAN]

I've been repeating this scene over and over on my dvd and amplifiying the volume and I've come to 2 conclusions.  First, I do believe he is referencing from wizard of oz.  Second, I understand completely what his final words are and let me tell you your not going to think that it makes any sense so after I reveal what he is saying, I challenge you put the scene on and compare it for yourself.

"Arrgghh,  help me,  Uharrgghh, I'm melting,  Aarrggh, I'm melting, I'm melting, I'M MELTING, GOD"!  " Arrgghh Oh it'll be okay, help,  he'll be okay".
"Boo"!  HAaa Heehh Haa haaa

Thats one of my favorite moments of The Joker period, in comic book or film history, its truly iconic and creepy as hell.

Maybe it's "argggh, help me obi-wan, help me obi-wan"!

[Grissom]

That was a great scene and very creepy.

I love Joker's laugh there. Not anyone could pull that one off. Go ahead, try it yourself.
