Its tough to put screen time into developing these characters when you kill them at the end of the movie. So that's where Marvel having a fully introduced roster is able to spend time on Villains.
The fun of the joker wasn't in figuring out his motivation as much as figuring out how a person would become such an agent of chaos.

What would make a person flip like that.

Beyond the fact that he classified himself as a dog chasing a car, he was really the only guy involved that was a meticulous planner.
