They left that open, but the film implied strongly that's not the case.  Or I suppose you can assume Thomas Wayne really is a monster and was lying.  If so, that's the most unsympathetic version of Batman's dad I've ever seen.

Check last post in spoilers thread.

How did they establish that?

Well they didn't 

But the film left alot to the imagination.

So I imagine he was in his Twenties. I guess you could track back by when his mom worked for Wayne. I bet you a detailed examination would reveal his actual age in the movie.

Arthur said something along these lines to Penny, early in the movie; "you worked for him over 30 years ago".

That puts Joker over 30 easily. Especially since Wayne is aware of the adoption situation.

But it has to be established weather he is Wayne's legitimate child or not. If he is adopted than finding out his actual age is harder

Also why are spoilers being posted on this thread, when they should be posted on spoilers

I was waiting for that to come up.

I’m starting to think this was better than Dark Knight. They are probably tied right now for top but eventually Joker is gonna be considered the best.

Regardless - he's older than 30.

Dark knight for action

Joker for suspenseful drama

Thanks for the heads up. That's odd.

Some of the songs in the film I will never think of the same way again.  Much like A Clockwork Orange.

Agreed! They are linked to this film going forward.

4.9X production budget.

Hopefully it breaks even soon.

Me either.  Was wondering what all the blank posts from Bosco were?

[HENRYSPENCER]

You watch cinema and Netflix, and most films come and go. Rarely do they stick with you, engraved in your mind; Joker is one of them. I think this is primarily because of how dark the picture was and the ambiguity in meaning. The film masterfully leaves certain aspects of the plot open to higher interpretation.

That huge Joker grin on De Niro, never noticed. Wonder if that's a nod to how much the Franklin character influenced him. As if that's where that huge cheek lifting smile he falls back on comes from.
