Who would have known the influence it ended up having on it's audience was more fun and peaceful - everyone having watched it just want to go visit and dance on the steps in New York instead!

It was hyped like that so people could go watch it. There was never going to be any violence coming from the movie. It was a feel good movie 😂😂😂

@@orinorio1 I remember seeing 'Joker' on opening night. I knew going in this wasn't a Blockbuster, we have what I call ''The Avengers/Blockbuster'' crowd in the showing though, when they came out you could tell they couldn't believe what they have just gone and seen. A film about male mental health essential.

[@orinorio1]

@@thekingofoldskool2 😆 yeah. During the movie I was just shaking my head. It was the first movie I felt like walking out. I stayed and found myself trying to stay awake. For me it was just a dull over the top movie. When the dancing started I burst out laughing at what I was seeing. I left thinking that I didn't see a movie about the Joker I saw a movie about a man boy who wears make up and wants to be femous and loved by everyone. That's not the Joker I had in mind. Like you said the movie inspired people to dress up and dance. Again not the Joker I had in mind lol

[@STRANGEANATOMYBAND]

@@orinorio1yeah, it’s really crass when you think about how they came up with the idea. Essentially they made a movie with zero respect for the source material, which would be fine on its own, but the “original” stuff they brought to it was all lifted from way better movies. Aside from Phoenix’s performance, it’s just an incredibly hollow experience from start to finish. It isn’t truly the Joker and isn’t truly a well thought-out or original idea either. It’s just a clever cash-grab honestly.

[@orinorio1]

@@STRANGEANATOMYBAND I think Todd wrote a movie about a guy with mental issues. It was never about DC or anything to do with a comic book or the Joker. The studios made it about that as it would make money like you said playing of the Joker name. Also felt it was a movie all about QP. His movie to show how over the top he can be. Was so he can get an Oscer.

[@retromacman620]

Leto frequently seems to go overboard and doesn't really live up to the expectations he sets. Still, he can be very good at a role that is written and directed well, at very least...a Joker/Harley movie with him and Robbie would interest me, depending on the director and writer.

[@anjomo96]

From what was reported, after The Dark Knight was a hit WB told Nolan that "obvisouly the next villian is the Riddler and we want Dicaprio". Nolan countered and said he would only do a third Batman film if they funded Incepetion which is how Dicaprio was brought on board.

[@NebLleb]

Can I just say something? Thank GOD they ditched the concept of a Jared Leto Joker film to do Todd Phillips' crime tragedy instead! I'm very much not hyped for the denser and violent musical sequel but Todd's first outing proved that he had the makings of a truly good genre filmmaker.

[@NextToToddliness]

The Joker was never supposed to be sympathized with, or understood. Point of fact, he is antithetical to understanding, reason and empathy. That's why his multiple backstories in the comics work so well. Todd Philips exploited a cultural phenomenon, only to then blatantly crib someone else's work. So, I've never seen Joker as culturally impactful as the fans of the film have. I WISH Scorsese directed Joker, because he wouldn't have ripped off his own work, and made something more original. Joker (2019) is about as original as "AI generated media", in that it's not that original at all. Art is about courage and challenges, and I see no courage or challenge in stealing other people's work. Without the gravity of Scorsese prior work, you'd just be left with more bro-centric films like the Hangover or Road Trip: movies that lack any real artistic value outside of shock value & memes. Romanticizing mental illness & trauma as a justification for violence and perpetuated trauma is always a lame & predictable "edge lord" move. It's juvenile, as much as it is harmful to those of us who actually have metal health issues & trauma. Then again, we're talking about the person who asked John Wayne Gacy personally to create a movie poster for him just for the controversy and "edginess". He's about as edgy as a Hot Topic sales rack.

[@charliebronson1274]

Yes exactly. It's just a fusion of other movies. Nothing wholly original.

[@Liquidcadmus]

You're correct. the joker movie is gargabe. it has NOTHING to do with the Joker. it's like a student drama film (with a big budget) about a random mentally ill guy, with the Joker name slapped on it to sell tickets. not to mention it's just a copy paste of previously made movies by other more talented film makers.

[@charliebronson1274]

@Liquidcadmus People fell for this hook, line and sinker. I thought Get Out was over praised which it was.

[@johnprudent3216]

Being grounded is what truly made this film work. And I’m saying that as a comic book fan. I don’t mind if SOME changes are made so long as they serve and respect the source material. This was a great example of that happening. It was almost reading one of those one-off stories that meant to be its own, self-contained thing.

I have a love hate relationship with SS and Leto's Joker. Honestly i really liked the modernized take on the gangster idea of joker instead of using 1920s mobster inspiration, 90s and 00s SoCal gang culture. His look substantially grew on me. But his presence in the film, the writing, and conflict reports of his antics just kills the enthusiasm. Leto can do some great work when he's motivated and focused by the script and edit but SS lacked those.
