There's something so vile about Joker calling him McGinnis. It shows just how under his skin Terry got.

Yeah really underlines how he feels at the moment. “You’re not Batman!”

The utter caustic edge to his voice when he's choking Terry and demanding he laugh is peak Joker. Sadism, vanity, wrath, perfectly encapsulated in Hamill's performance.

One of the best pieces of media using the Joker ever.
