Joker - Teaser Trailer Reaction / Review / Rating

[@imcherylynn]

This movie isn’t out yet and Jared Leto has already been far outdone. Outshined. Out-Jokered.

[@RMadrid57]

Cherie Alexander FACTS 💯

[@Ace-nb9lg]

I mean, not real hard when it's already a more competent written, designed character and has a whole movie to expand on it. Meanwhile Jared Leto was given David Ayer' fantasy gangster world and was just used as an accessory for Harley for 7min of runtime. I'm glad we have Joaquin for sure. But he's beating Ayers' Joker. Watch Requiem for a Dream and Dallas Buyers Club, Jared was doing the same shit brilliantly. This is a character piece that wouldve benefited him too. Also the method acting bs was way exaggerated and David Ayer himself said a lot of what the media reported was fake and he and the cast talked about how he was really good to work with so these guys are being quite ridiculous. Joaquin is also a method actor btw. Like jeez chill out a bit. Anyway, this movie is looking brilliant I can't wait.

[@imcherylynn]

Ace well yeah, that’s overall what I was getting at. I was just kinda throwing a little joke out there. But yes, this movie does look incredible.

[@lisag5002]

Thank you Ace Jared Leto is a great actor but WB/DC/Ayers didn't give him that on screen time to flex his acting muscles. Plus you had fans who didn't want to look pass his tattooed look to see there was something to his Joker. The time he was on screen that look in his eyes can scare you.

[@_androo_9202]

You're really gonna blame Jared Leto for getting so much joker footage cut out of the movie

[@torythewild6409]

Oscar Alert ! Oscar Alert ! 🚨

[@KCATWIL]

I agree with you there!

[@jeremywang9148]

Don’t bother nomination, just give it to him

[@horror_fam0847]

Yes I mean come on Martian Scorsese is executive producer I would love to see this be nominated

[@joekerr1763]

Obvious Alert! Obvious Alert! (insert cute police-looking alarm light emoji here cause IDGAF)

[@asmarioo]

11!!!

[@romeross1557]

This movie is going to be extremely interesting. That last shot of him, just staring, with that unique makeup, is completely chilling.

[@atomicsquid9836]

Using the light and shadows to make the makeup look like a skull was awesome.

[@osmankovacevic6135]

I don't get scared easily, but being stuck there with him and seeing that face before the lights go off, fuck

[@jaymoodz]

Victor Bastos if you look in the elevator last shot he actually smirks right before it pans over and says October.

[@masamune2984]

“It’s not that the system failed me; ...I’m not even IN the system...” That’s a great way to put it!

[@robert___t]

YES!!! When he said that, I literally paused the video and said, "Exactly!!!"

[@miguelvidal2335]

yeah what an awesome phrase for the Joker

[@majerniktomas5872]

I love that silence after the trailer had ended

[@kirinchannel6566]

Majerník Tomáš to their faces haha

[@m.m6110]

And they give it 3 out 5 😂

[@MrUndersolo]

Best part of their reaction!

[@QJDWG]

This trailer legitimately SHOCKED me! Glad you guys got on it QUICK!

[@MrUriel2015]

Everyone get shocked with this, and I love it ¡¡¡

[@jgbmoney5566]

Towards the beginning he is seen walking up the stairs sadly but towards the end he is dancing down the stairs as the joker

[@mikelee8937]

Lol, so better a ruler on the road to hell than a servant in . . . purgatory? Nice pick up on the symbolism. Was still reeling from the classic costume appearance.

[@horror_fam0847]

The uphill battle out of hell to sadly dancing into it

[@thebigsam]

Going up is struggle against everything bad happening to him and around him And going down is descend into madness. While dancing, obviously :D

[@LouieR.4682]

Guys DC is making one hell of a comeback. Walter Hamada deserves a lot of credit for this turnaround.

[@mattfortmuller5]

Lois Kent it’s an amazing time just wish we would get man of steel 2

[@HalfDemonInuyasha]

Funny thing is that, IIRC, it was Kevin Feige who said that DC would do better focusing on making good standalone films rather than try to just mash everything together as quickly as possible.

[@stevesmoneywifthe4202]

This is all Todd Phillips though. It's his script, his cast, his direction etc.

[@stevesmoneywifthe4202]

And Scott Silver is the co writer. The guy who did The Fighter and 8 Mile

[@RagnarWarteeth]

"Some people just wanna watch the world burn" this movie will explain why...

[@Thalanox]

If it does a good enough job of it, then we'll agree with the mindset.

[@midnightmoon3855]

3 out of 5???? I'm wondering which trailers you give 5/5 because this was beautiful.

[@vickirosstudor490]

Agreed. I’ve watched this trailer mayyyybe 10x and each time feels like the first.

[@Rithysak101]

@@Edd_LShore i hope you're being sarcastic

[@blerghism]

That looks utterly terrifying. Can't effing wait.

[@brom00]

It has more a "Taxi Driver" vibe than anything else. It looks to have another nod to "The King of Comedy" as well with the cameo by Robert De Niro as the talk show host. I'm still thinking Joker's final make-up pays a bit of homage to the TV show version.

[@matthewspriggscinematographer]

It also plays with the design and colors used by John Wayne Gacy (serial killer) when he dressed as Pogo the clown. Which btw is the name on the wall of the comedy club in this trailer. This take I hope changes the entire DC Batman approach.

[@jakefromstatefarm8545]

Bruce Bromley I’m sure you thought of that all by yourself.

[@brom00]

@@jakefromstatefarm8545 what does that even mean? Any lover of film can spot the parallels. I saw "Taxi Driver" in 1982. How about you?

[@jakefromstatefarm8545]

Bruce Bromley you know exactly what I mean.

[@brom00]

@@jakefromstatefarm8545 by all means, explain it for the benefit of everyone.

[@justinprather4760]

So much better than Jared Leto dressed as a mumble rapper.

[@Aroreiel08]

I felt really uneasy watching this trailer, in a good way (if that's even possible). It really shocked me and I've gone from not being interested in this to totally intrigued. Colour me interested.

[@lukestubbs.]

‘Falling Down’, a movie directed by Joel Schumacher. Wait, Joel Schumacher? The guy who directed ‘Batman and Robin’? He’s somehow an inspiration for a Batman related movie? Never expected that...

[@alvianashari5785]

Bad people are born of good people who are hurt

[@Jeffro5564]

Jay expression is priceless

[@dudemanbroguy3464]

We all have that madness somewhere in our minds, all it takes is one bad day...

[@viksaggu9085]

I think I heard that line somewhere 😂😂😂

[@CoreHarmonic]

Their faces right at the end after the word 'SMILE' is priceless. It's like they wanted to say: 'It's, it's... perfect!'

[@streetrat48]

Idk why, but I'm digging your content. There's something just.....nice and wholesome about it. Subscribed.

[@Phazenemesis]

I hated walking up those damn stairs as a kid. Hate them even more as an adult. Lol

[@arte.reaccion6080]

Long life to Joaquín Phoenix, he is great (I saw him for the first time in Gladiator). If he wins the Oscar it will be beautiful, because Joaquín was friend of Heath Ledger... And because will be a tribute to his brother River, who died en 1993, and he was a great actor too. Great reaction friends, the man in the right side of the video is very pretty, pretty smile. Peace and love from Chile :)

[@miqseri]

I'm from the future and the movie got an oscar

[@omgbygollywow]

This is like a cross between Taxi Driver and Falling Down.

[@silverspike1]

It looks absolutely brilliant! I can't wait. *eta* I think It's set in the 1980's. :)

[@jackdonohue7893]

silverspike1 I think it’s 70s.

[@tomerart9544]

It's set in 1981

[@lolosunderland5028]

That moment of silence tells it all

[@El_Crazyknight]

I always said that the reason Batman is awesome its in big part because he has the BEST rogue's gallery of any comic book character ever and those great villains make for great stories.

[@seraby7151]

8:00 In the Dark Knight, Ledger's Joker stood out more than Batman because of Bale , not the character itself. Bale just wasn't in the same level of acting as Ledger.

[@DRGN-TYPE]

I partly agree. But I'd say it's more of the way he was written for th3 film. I mean, can you imagine how amazing joker would be if Nicholson was given full roam for the 80s role?

[@saltylemonz258]

Now I understand how one guy, with no super power, no monstrous intelligence, no money, no authority, but madness alone can stand up as the best villain in DC universe. Joker was made by society. You cant kill society, another Joker will just rise up.

[@fhdhejeh63]

This is the best trailer that I've ever seen in my entire life.

[@whitdogwhatsup6289]

When he does that little jump/stand thing on the stairs... that's a classic Joker move. Check it out again.

[@dragonstone6594]

You guys had the best reaction. I loved it.

[@jasonmarbach]

Wow Adam...in hindsight, you nailed that “Falling Down” comparison. Really cool call

I've watched a handful of your reactions, and I appreciate your takes on things. You earned the subscription... keep up the good work!

Thanks, glad to have you along 🙂

[@Jigsaw407]

Falling Down meets Taxi Driver. This movie will escalate really bad towards the end, and I can't wait to witness it. Looks amazing!

[@streppegna4503]

I actually hope it will escalate badly, with Arthur going from troubled-but-sympathetic to full-on downright EVIL, completing the transformation.

[@jacobmcmillan6787]

When Scorsese, Phillips and Phoenix come to you and say I want to do a Joker film. You say yes

[@RyanAllThingsPossible909]

... the silence... is awesome Looking back, I completely see the hesitation and concern going in ... it's fun to go back and watch these again, knowing what we know now

[@christianisraelolmosmartin1139]

Finally someone made a movie of the joker alone man this movie is about his roughness life that joker gets bully that's what I was waiting for, a movie that explain everything to know about the joker why he was so crazy how did he become crazy the joker have many time lines so this one is one of them and finally we have one not the aggressive batman that bullies the joker all the time man I was waiting for this for all my life I know there's a little Bruce Wayne in the movie but it's the joker on his beginnings.

[@JackYM78]

You on the left there, 3/5 for this trailer, are you "JOKING?"

[@dannydarko7565]

Dude. Movie looks freaking amazing

[@truevendetta308]

Great comparison to ‘Falling Down’. I completely agree. I can’t wait to see how they have the Joker descend into madness.

[@obsessed.withUrEx]

Definitely 5/5

[@mattvsmetaverse]

I almost clicked away with the beginning cynicism of the video, but I had to stay for the reaction. I knew you'd be turned around and had to see the expressions. It was rewarding to see the turnaround that I expected. :p Every single time I see this trailer, I get chills. If you let it be its own movie in its own kindaverse, I think it'll blow everyone away.

[@tsogobauggi8721]

Your expressions during the trailer :) Joaquin Phoenix is amazing actor. The trailer is really good, chills and goosebumps while and after watching it :)

[@eeveeisepic11]

This movie is HUGLEY inspired by Taxi Driver, I think Scorsese is even producing it.

[@chloesutton7716]

Speechless for a few minutes right afterwards that's how you know it's a good trailer

[@watertommyz]

I didn't think Jared Leto was bad. He was just kind of not given a movie to shine.

[@africanzionflo]

I love both of you and I ain't joking around.

[@marchingwizard]

Loved your reaction right after the trailer! I'm really sold by this trailer and really surprised how it's not any ordinary comic book movie and looks nothing like it, it's more like a character study. Really sold by Joaquin Phoenix's performance. Heath Ledger will still no doubt be the best but Phoenix seems like he will be close to it or equally good! Really interested about the other cast members too. The girl smiling at Joaquin in the donut store is Zazie Beetz from Deadpool. The talk show host is Robert DeNiro. And also cool to know the guy on TV about the guy hiding behind the mask is playing Thomas Wayne. And the kid behind the gate is playing Bruce Wayne.

[@allonsy3695]

Best reaction ever, before trailw, why are they doing this? After trailer stunned silence

@@pReviewd There is no question that you'd rather turn out right about something than wrong. That type of intelligence is an advantage in life. So keep nailing.

I like the silence of shock of you guys after watching the trailer XD

[@edrickquiles8326]

i love this guys so much omg

[@mikelee8937]

It's nice to see some ambivalence initially about the film. Seems many were real eager to see Phoenix's rendition, and I had no clue this film was even a thing. Gotta admit, kinda dig the different vibe it gives. Ledger's could be somewhat related to, but not really all that sympathetic. This certainly looks promising.

[@Jpup]

I love how jay immediately asks about batman at the beginning bc some ppl just want batman in every DC movie

[@zayag3543]

I keep coming back to this video just to see two guys who have no idea how good this movie would eventually turn out

[@mightybellarts]

I totally did the same thing (8:22)! I really laughed pretty hard at the pencil joke. I loved your reactions, and I felt the same way. :)

[@michaeljacquart7791]

I felt this film was trying to show that the joker isn't a "cool" character. The Leto Joker wanted to make Joker cool and sexy but that's not him. Joker is tragic, deranged, damaged, and full of hatred. Much of the public almost celebrates mental illness but this movie wipes all that off the table and points to what it truly is and I don't think a lot of people are going to be comfortable watching how much the every day person can contribute to making a Joker every day.

[@spiderfingers86]

Joaquin Phoenix won the oscar for best actor from this movie

[@nickthompson2023]

The beauty of the Joker is he’s always been somewhat relatable to the common man’s struggle against society, and what any of us could do with one bad day. Heath was amazing as a developed Joker, but Joaquin will kill in this role as we get to finally see the Joker become himself in live form. I’ve always been under the firm belief that Joker is Batman without all the money and glamor.

[@ZER0O9]

Joker is the only reason I watch Batman, so him getting his own movie without bats is a dream come true.

[@tollef1108]

Bruce Wayne is in this movie as a kid, it is a character piece but also kind of shows that Gotham was messed up long before Batman came along which is something they rarely touch upon

[@jaydawg116]

Adam: 3:57 “You wouldn’t get it”

[@bolobalaman]

I love your speechless reaction lol

[@MrHatrick101]

I really hope this brings Joaquin back into major acting roles. He’s gone so overlooked as an actor partly due to his personal preference of roles and partly due to people not knowing his potential to be a very deep and intricate character. It’s crazy how he does this purely through facial expressions and small nuances, he can be so impactful on a movie without much dialogue but his talent is undeniable! So glad he got a lead that has people excited for

[@addisonratcatcher3287]

I think he only sent a LIVING rat. Lol and it lives with Guillermo Del Toro now

[@jasonknight1085]

"Falling Down" is exactly what I was thinking of -- along with "Taxi Driver" ... the latter fitting since Scorsese is a producer on this flick and DeNiro is in it. I've said it a few places, when D-Fens in "Falling Down" says "I'm the bad guy? When did I become the bad guy" -- it's EXACTLY the type of line I could see this early prototypical Joker deliver. Like minds.

[@carmelafernandez1587]

Joaquin Phoenix actually declined this role before because he doesn’t want any sequels. And Leonardo was supposed to be the Joker. Bradley Cooper is one of the producers

[@crimsonjedi]

Eat your words dude on the right!!lol 3 outta 5 gtfo. It was better then endgames trailer

[@1938superman]

Also, Falling Down was a good and underrated movie.

[@leatherelf2078]

This trailer was unlike any Joker release I have ever seen. Joker was a human, with a mother and was just trying to live his life. The first Joker was dropped into a vat of chemicals. This Joker seems to have just been dropped into our world.

[@azapache2006]

In 1981, a failed stand-up comedian turns to a life of crime and chaos in Gotham City, slowly rising up to become a frightening legend. Inspired by Martin Scorsese writings and films, remember its a STAND ALONE movie of just joker only Movie reminds me of ONE WHO FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST & TAXI DRIVER

[@1938superman]

Many modern iterations of Joker in other media have kind of adopted this concept that he was a really good guy before the world finally broke him. And actually this origin makes him eventually a way better villain. I think this may be the DC answer to Logan. This may be an R-rated character piece. Also, this takes place in 1981. The little boy is Bruce Wayne and the guy on the television is Thomas Wayne. I think Joker’s mother dies and that sends him over the edge. I also think we see Bruce’s parents killed in this movie. I don’t know if Joker does it or not. But I think that shot of Joker making him smile is after his parents are dead. This movie looks amazingly good. This could be better than Ledger’s Joker. That’s about the highest praise I can give.

[@mirandasummerset]

This trailer was creepy & made me feel for the joker at the same time....I'm all the way in 👏👋
