That's the same vid as the second vid in the OP, btw. That vid doesn't skip for me...

Weird it had like interruptions every 40 seconds or so oh well. now that video has been copyright claimed by WB. The one I posted is the same, and is cut from the Justice League vs Teen Titans special features bluray. That releases April 12

I'm excited that they'll show more of Batgirl too

LMAO

Batman: The Killing Joke*animated movie receives R rating —*exclusive

by*Oliver Gettell*| April 14 2016 — 7:37 PM EDT

Batman: The Killing Joke*isn’t kidding around. Warner Bros’. direct-to-video animated film based on the notorious Alan Moore comic has been rated R, the studio’s home entertainment division tells EW exclusively.

The Killing Joke*marks the first film in the DC Universe Original Movie franchise to receive an R rating, and the second Batman movie to do so. (The*extended home-video version*of*Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice*was the first.)

Starring Kevin Conroy as the voice of Batman/Bruce Wayne, Mark Hamill as the Joker, and Tara Strong as Batgirl/Barbara Gordon,*The Killing Joke*is an origin story that finds the Clown Prince of Crime taunting the Dark Knight by capturing and torturing Batgirl. The original comic was published in 1988 and remains polarizing, with some hailing it as a definitive Joker story and others criticizing it as misogynistic.

“From the start of production, we encouraged producer Bruce Timm and our team at Warner Bros. Animation to remain faithful to the original story — regardless of the eventual MPAA rating,” said Sam Register, president of Warner Bros. Animation & Warner Digital Series, in a statement. “The Killing Joke*is revered by the fans, particularly for its blunt, often-shocking adult themes and situations. We felt it was our responsibility to present our core audience — the comics-loving community — with an animated film that authentically represented the tale they know all too well.”

There are currently no plans for an edited PG-13 version of the film.

Batman: The Killing Joke*will make its world premiere at Comic-Con International in San Diego this summer, with a release on Blu-ray, DVD, and Digital HD to follow later in the year.

Good for them for not watering down the source material.

I thought The Dark Knight Returns definitely walked up to the line of a R rating.

Yeah, pretty excited to see it. Hopefully an official trailer will come soon. I think they will be screening the movie at SD comicon
