Joker: Folie à Deux (Todd Phillips, October 4, 2024) Movie • Page 16

Phaynes is the joker defender

 

Just joker, it’s cleaner

 

I liked this comment then immediately unliked it after I read what you said about Longlegs.

 

Mega > D&W > J2

 

Oh man. Don't change.

 

Deadpool & Wolverine and Joker 2 are both awful for different reasons

 

I was smart enough not to see D&W or this movie.

Anyone who watched this and not The People’s Joker fucked up.

 

I enjoyed D&W because it was actually fun and had a story that progressed the characters. This film….idk what they were trying to achieve but progressing character arcs was not one of them

 

seeing the people's joker in a theater was something else (complimentary)

 

it isn't a good movie, people are just being too twisted

 

Almost like the joker himself!!!

 

hah!

 

There’s 4 imax showings of this tomorrow at my usual theater and 13 tickets sold total

Went ahead and counted all 15 showings in any format and it’s 68 tickets sold

 

One of the worst movies of the past decade for sure

 

lol

 

Game recognizes game.

 

While I would never mourn the failure of Todd Phillips, it is disappointing that one of the main reasons is that audiences fled from the word musical.

 

I think the word of mouth killed it too. I didn’t even like the first film and thought the way the story handled the characters brings up the question…why was this even made?

For fans of the first film I can see why they would tell others not to see it.

 

I haven’t paid any attention to the build up of this so maybe this conversation has been done to death or proved/debunked, but I’m fascinated by the behind the scenes of this more than anything else.

Impression I get from a few articles/videos about this pain the picture below but idk how true it is but is funny to think about:


- Joker made a billion bucks
- studio demands Todd makes a sequel because of how much money Joker made
- Todd doesn’t want to but agrees to as long as the studio doesn’t interfere because hey, 1 billion bucks!
- deliberately makes a movie to piss everyone off
- disillusioned fans scream “you just don’t get it!!!!!!! It’s supposed to suck that’s why it’s great!!!!!” to everyone that criticizes it.

 

I haven’t seen anyone say it’s supposed to suck that’s why it’s great. Just that it’s not good.

 

There's someone on scans_daily who legitimately likes it.
