This movie is inspired by The Long Halloween graphic novel, but so was Batman Begins. It also has a very Se7en aesthetic. I think you won't be able to escape the comparison's of Nolan's version of The Joker with Matt Reeves version of The Riddler. There's also something to be said about all these directors who have done Batman movies are trying to outdo each other in their "dark" version of The Dark Knight. Tim Burton's just wasn't dark enough Nolan said, and now Matt Reeves is like, oh let's go even darker.
