For many Batman fans (including this writer) the original Tim Burton rendition is still the greatest. This is thanks in large part to the amazing performance of Jack Nicolson as The Joker/Jack Napier. After Batman (Michael Keaton) accidentally drops Jack into a vat of chemicals he is transformed into the iconic villain and wastes no time causing havoc. The Joker holds a meeting with all of the city's top mobsters and basically tells them that he is asserting control. One gangster in particular claims that he isn't going to give in; The Joker walks over, extends his hand and agrees to part on friendly terms. As soon as they shake hands it is revealed that The Joker has an eclectic hand buzzer and begins to fry the poor guy. The Joker tops it off with the quip that he looks a little "hot under the collar."
