Again, posted unironically on the 'Cinema' forum @ Fireflyfans.net Second - your attempted jabs and insults MIGHT have more sting if your views had more legitimacy to them. But they don't. Say what you want about Joker, but it did receive 11 nominations from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and won 2 Oscars, including BEST ACTOR. All while hauling in more than a billion dollars at the box office. That may not be much, but as Captain Mal might say... " It's enough " So 'empty '. Fathom the hypocrisy of a government that requires every citizen to prove they are insured... but not everyone must prove they are a citizen I'm just a red pill guy in a room full of blue pill addicts.

Maybe he'd get it if he watched it instead of repeating reviews he read on Vox and Mother Jones. Do Right, Be Right. :)Joker is not a biographical movie. Arthur never existed. Joker never existed. And for most of his life Joaquin Phoenix plays characters that never existed. There is really nothing there, inside the movie. It is all going on inside your head. The movie is like radar bouncing off the inside of your noggin. A signal comes back telling the world how empty your head is according to how you react to this movie. I'm getting back a very steady and strong signal that says AURaptor and 6ixStringJack are hollow men fascinated by an empty movie about a nonexistent character.

Quote: Dr. Ben Arnell is certain that he'll be the analyst to succeed where all others have failed. He's going to cure the Joker's madness. He believes that he can put an insurmountable wall between himself and the seductive void behind the Joker's eyes. And he's absolutely sure that no matter what he goes through at work, he can keep that darkness far away from his family. Dr. Ben Arnell is very, very wrong.

Quote: That is exactly like saying Trump's history of acrimonious divorces, multiple bankruptcies and of being sued and losing has no connection to the chaos of how he conducts himself as President. Trump is the same man before and after election. Joker is the same character before and after this movie. You might not read about Joker, but the writer/director knows Joker from the comics. Those 3 recent Joker comics are perfectly consistent with the Joker movie.

Quote:Originally posted by AURaptor: You’re babbling. This is nothing like that at all. When are you going to stop projecting everything you hate into a contorted , convoluted sidecar to this movie? I feel the more you try to discuss this, the more entrenched you become with your warped and disassociated view. I don’t recall joker ever having an origins story. And yet this movie presents one for the first time.

Quote:Originally posted by 6ixStringJack: $200 Million is beyond stupid. I've got just about zero interest in watching this flick, mostly because of the fact that Lady GaGa is actually going to be in it and that wasn't just some dumb internet rumor and I've heard it's going to be a musical? If it's a musical, it's DOA and it isn't going to make the $500 Million it needs to break even. Not a chance. This was a movie that didn't even need a continuation in the first place, so unless they've got some amazing story to tell, nearly quadrupling the budget was a terrible mistake.
