I did see some movie with Phoenix in it recently about him being some weird hit man and I made it through the entire movie, so I was entertained. |

Everyone saying it's a masterpiece and Oscar buzz for Phoenix.
@firstshowing: There will be before Joker. And there will be after Joker. I don't know if the world is ready for this movie. Or maybe it is? It is GNARLY. It is crazy. It is audacious. It doesn't hold back. Wow. I can't believe it exists. But it does. And it's coming. |

Looks good, but I don't see it being a big box office hit.

Enormous potential with this one ...
I worry that they've given away too much plot via the trailers, however. There better be a good twist. FAX |

The only negative I've seen is that he (Todd Phillips) tried to do too much in one movie. But that's not unusual in entertainment these days. I just finished season one of Carnival Row and while I liked it a lot, they tried to cram about ten different storylines into eight episodes.

I generally disapprove of giving this character a back-story.
I prefer the Joker that just randomly makes up his own back story with nobody knowing what is or isn't true. The enigma is part of the fun of the character. I just hope the 'bastard son of a Trumpian Thomas Wayne' rumors aren't true. |

I’d pretty much pay to see Joaquin read a phone book, this is a no brainer for my $10

It is deeper, darker and more disturbing places than any comic book.
