Interesting to see the direction they will be going here

Better be a cuban-american as Cesar Romero was the original joker

I hope you follow that direction, Blake, wherever it leads. Christ, you're nuisance. I've never liked you and I always will. You, SOB, you.

Original doesn’t mean the best

So fictional character originality means nothing. :lol

In this particular case; absolutely.

Likely no comedy but it is pretty much established it will be a musical, tbh.

Weird choice for a comics company. I predict a critcal success but a box-office flop, tbh.

.........which they'll hide under the guise of WOKE.

[Monostradamus]

The first one was terrible, and now they’re adding Lady Gaga? :lol I can’t even fathom how excruciating this one will be.

How the fuck can something be both a critical success and box office flop? :lmao

Not always tbh

Romero played a campy Joker, but to be fair to him it was the tone of that show

Terrible translation from me tbh :lol
I meant comedy (in french it's called comédie musicale even if it's not a comedy)

Critics = 2 thumbs up

Movie goers don't go any way

Happens all the time

Snobby critics give it a high rating but people don't go watch the movie. It has literally happened thousands of times.

Not for blockbuster films. Critics will tear it down if it’s not good.

You reversed it there. Critics can rave about a movie while the audience ghosts it. Happens all the time.

guy who thinks typical fast and furious movie is of better quality than something like Phantom Thread

[ChumpDumper]

Could be good but Gaga is...not a good actor.

Yeah but if she's sings a duet with Phoenix it'll all be worth it!

[lefty]

Penguin spin off show looks good though - Matt Reeves is at the helm so It should be good


Plus they will introduce Alberto & Sfofia Falcone, Sal Maroni and Johny Vitit

Looks it will have some Long Halloween vibes

[ChumpDumper]

:lol I didn't even make it to the songs in A Star Is Born. All the previous versions of that movie are, you know, watchable.

[Ef-man]

True but Lady Gaga would be an overkill as the lyrics are horrible: "Batman, Batman, Batman! Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na. Batman!"

[koriwhat]

Right on time for Saint Fentenyl Floyd 2.0

???? Haven’t watched a FF all the way through since the 4th. You could have picked anything else besides that shit ass franchise :lol

My point is critical acclaim doesn’t necessarily match box office numbers

[FrostKing]

A musical? I dig the cajones. Swing for the fences, give us a different Joker experience.

[lebomb]

I think the movie may end up pretty decent afterall. Lady Gaga is a good actress unlike Cumdumpster said above. She has gotten rave reviews for her acting in previous movies.

djohn ruins more things than hater tbh

[koriwhat]

I got through 15-20 mins or so... ZzzzZzzz....

[Blake]

Wanted to just chill in a theater so we went to see this as this seemed the best of what's currently out there.

0/10. Just a shit movie that had nothing to say and literally went nowhere. Phoenix singing as hard on the ears. The movie is called Joker and there's no laughs to be found, in which I was expecting at least some dark humor.

They should have just remade "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" instead.

Welp, not even critical success. :lol

Was this movie made for the sole purpose of pissing off incel fanboys who think the first movie is aspirational?

yes, also to piss of the suits that wanted Todd Phillips him to make another one

[Thanos]

Todd Phillips is such an untalented hack :lol made a bland Scorsese ripoff with the first Joker, and now tries his hand at cinematic nihilism and fails miserably. Thankfully this should torch his mainstream career, and he can just do direct to streaming garbage that nobody watches. Maybe make Hangover 4 if the cast gets desperate enough.

Scorsese even worked as a producer on the first movie for years, so he probably came up with most of the good shit himself

[ChumpDumper]

Scorsese even worked as a producer on the first movie for years, so he probably came up with most of the good shit himselfHe came up with all the good Joker stuff in 1978 and 1982. It was fun because Taxi Driver and King of Comedy fit the Joker character pretty well, but it was so derivative it might as well have been a Duncan Jones movie.
