I like that Juanita Conner is fluent in English but still has a thick Mexican accent. Hopefully she'll use it to lecture the viewer about open borders and the importance of voting Democrat.

Reviews are in for Joker. Apparently worth a watch. Saw a few perfect scores for it.

>not understanding that early reviews are almost always shilled to trick the plebs into paying to see the movie

The point is that nobody but shills get to see movies earlier. Most don't get paid, the privilege of being there and getting the first clicks is their payment. They have a vested interest in cupping the balls while sucking so they get invited to view the next crap early.

They're also the same people who proclaimed Black Panther the world's greatest work of art. (Actually, it's Chelsea Van Valkenberg's perfect body, but whatevs.)

Most of the positive reviews are hailing it as a mature drama that breaks away from capeshit cliches, and most of the negative reviews are accusing it of being a politically irresponsible film (no joke, some critics seriously think it will encourage incels to rise up). Honestly, it sounds good. I'll probably see it in theaters, although I should bring a bullet proof vest.

The Quinn thirstposting has already gotten stale.

The Quinn thirstposting was stale 10 seconds after the first post.

The one negative review I read said that it's just a vapid piece of mass produced commercial crap. Which, I'll buy that.

Could be. Anyway, here are some reviews that accuse it of being politically irresponsible:
