The upcoming Joker Movie

[Auli]

This movie will escalate the toxic male white-supremacist movement and everything is racist.

The movie looks like some guy wanted to make a movie about a guy driven over the edge by modern life. He then hijacked a dumb, gay capeshit movie to make it because that's all studios make anymore.

This is great and more people should do it.

Could be possible. Isn't this what happened to that Catwoman movie as well?

Have no interest in the movie, largely because whoever designed The Joker here went for 'generic clown' instead of 'The Joker'. Bodes very badly for the content of the movie.

Well, wouldn't be the first time they didn't "get" Joker.

Heath Ledger's design was hardly classic Joker either

I'm mostly wondering if Jared Leto is quietly seething over this.

Jared Leto will invade the set and start sabotaging filming by channeling the Joker and doing such rascal things and putting salt on the director's cup of coffee and misplacing Joaquim Fenix's Joker makeup, THE ABSOLUTE MADMAN! HE IS THE ONLY REAL JOKER!

Well, that's the thing. Batman is actually quite easy to get right or even half right so long as you're not Zack Snyder. But The Joker? He's difficult to get right.

The Joker's an autistic pussy in clown makeup. There's no not getting that right, except here.

And you can bag on Snyder all day long, but it's not like Nolan understood Batman, or even Burton, who made him a side character in his own movies.

Honestly this movie looks gay. Who wants a stand-alone Joker origin movie that has nothing to do with Batman? It's basically a big-budget episode of Gotham.

One of the worst things you can do is give the Joker a backstory. The killing joke tried to make him sympathetic. Never try and make the joker sympethetic.

Christ, how pretentious can ya be? He's a fucking clever vigilante millionaire, not Macbeth.

A possible backstory? Maybe. A definitive one? No way.
