Love the way this is cut, with the music and sound effects, etc.

Very good.

Has he always been so freakishly skinny or did he do that for this

IDK, I think maybe?

Seanny One Ball 04-03-2019 12:56 PM

Troubled production history... could be bad.

Count me in after the trailer. Very interested to see how this plays out.

rez 04-03-2019 10:06 PM

I didn't like the makeup at first but after watching the trailer...I'm down wit the clown

mitchables 04-04-2019 08:12 AM

seems fine i guess

idk, i want to be excited for it, and i see a lot of people being all on board after watching the trailer but i'm not really any more or less interested in this for having seen these couple of minutes of footage

El Vaquero de Infierno 04-04-2019 01:19 PM

Since the get-go, this film has not particularly interested me, and the trailer has done nothing to change that.

Lock Jaw 04-04-2019 03:04 PM

Opposite effect for me. I was pretty "meh, whatever" about everything, but now that trailer has me hype.

Damian Rey 2.0 04-04-2019 06:45 PM

I'm interested to see how Phoenix does. Liked what I saw in the trailer and I'm typically a fan of his. Also want to see where they go with this. It looks interesting enough and far more intriguing than the Leto joker we got in suicide squad.

But it could be a total bomb and complete miss by the director and his team. Which would be a shame since Wonder Woman, Aquaman and Shazam have started to help right the ship for DC movies.

RP 04-04-2019 07:58 PM

I thought the trailer was really well done. I'm on the fence because I cant tell where this movie is going. I doubt they make Joker out to be a sympathetic character. But the trailer shows a lot of that. I'm thinking there is a fuckton more to this movie and we're being a bit mislead. I could be wrong. I got a Rob Zombie ( directed movies ) type feel to this movie. A sick, dark dude. I think this movie might be really dark and i'm ok with it.

Damian Rey 2.0 04-04-2019 11:33 PM

I think they'll be some natural sympathy to his character if it's going the route I think it is. The Killing Joke is beloved, and it sympathized Joker's character. It didn't make the story any less effective.

We'll see. It's got people talking, and not in a "this looks shit" sort of way, so that's a good start.

EIWF 04-05-2019 07:03 AM

After so man duds, lets hope DC are getting things right. Im not a fan of someone different playing the same character so close to someone else. I guess you grow up with 'your' version of the character and associate that one as the best.

Didn't like how Spiderman got re-booted....then rebooted again.

Rammsteinmad 04-07-2019 05:26 AM

Looks meh to me. Heath Ledger's portrayal of the Joker was absolutely incredible, and a whole new level of acting. But otherwise, I've never really been massively into the character and always thought he was a bit overrated.

Frank Drebin 04-07-2019 09:08 AM

Yeah, no one was gonna beat Jack Nicholson's Joker before Dark Knight came out either.

Different portrayals. Ledger's Joker wasn't the kind that would bust into a room dancing to "Party Man". Doesn't mean one was better than the other.

Ol Dirty Dastard 04-07-2019 09:12 AM

looks good to me. Seems you need to be a full-on snob/hater/derp not to at least be enticed by that trailer. Joaquin Phoenix is a fantastic actor. Not the same a weiner-boy jared leto.

Rotten Tomatoes has this sitting at 86% with 22 reviews in. All but 3 positive. The excitement builds.

Metacritic giving it a 75 right now.

Great reviews right now from everybody except from critics from TIME and Vanity Fair. That's why it's down a bit.

Roger Ebert guy had a bad review as well. Based on the excerpt used for RT, I can tell I won't like anything he writes.

Come and think of it, every superhero/super bad guy should be a woman.

Black and gay preferably. So we don't live in a world full of hate.

Gay is soooooo 1993. It's all about being one of the other 31 sexes we never knew about until a bunch of 22 year olds figured it out for the rest of us.

That's because people who are both in the woke culture and happen to be published film critics submitted their woke reviews and dragged the score down.

Marketing is likely betwee 20 and 35 mil. So if its high end they won't hit profits until Saturday next week. If its low end theyll see profits on sunday

Damian Rey 2.0 10-06-2019 01:21 AM

Word of mouth is going to carry this film. Gonna be a big hit for WB.
