I mean geeze when an animated tv show has a harder hitting emotional story than your big budget R I mean shoulda been R rated movie I don't know what to say.
I agree with all that, but none of those things are going to help develop their movie franchise. Who HQ is "now" (in her current state of glorious popularity, with millions of licensed crap sold a year) is not the Joker's flunky, and hasn't been for years. I wouldn't go that crazy over the 5 minutes of screen time they shared. I thought it was pretty clear Joker viewed her as his property more than anything else. Maybe that will be further developed if the franchise has some sticking power?

I thought they struck a good balance to further thier merchandise sales and film franchise while avoiding public out cry.
