Joker "The Joker" in development with Todd Phillips and Martin Scorsese attached? - Part 2

[Gothamsknight]

You might want to google Troll first. I know my english SUCKS, but at least i know what a troll is.
You better report, so dumb

You literally are calling people blind for the sole fact that they haven't conformed to your view of phoenix being the best yet because they haven't seen the film. You're coming across as someone who is angry and desperate to change the majority opinion that Ledgers Joker is the best, and it's pretty pathetic.

Damn. Top 5. That's good. From what i heard, Phillips did an incredible job directing the film. So many people laughed about him before watching the film. Well no one is laughing now!

 

[Boom]

God damn. I gotta see this Parasite movie. Nothing but praise since Cannes.

 

[Brother Jack]

Part of me kinda just figured he actually, genuinely forgot (which is potentially funnier)

That's how I took it. Like he cared so little about Rachel that he forgot her name.

You said people who don't share your OPINION are blind or delusional.....that's close enough to trolling for me. You were infracted for that....don't do it again.

Putting words in my mouth is not going to make you right. Blind fans are delusional and it's true. I don't ****ing care if anyone shares my opinion Lmao

You can delete my account immediately. Thanks

Someone not sharing your opinion does not make them blind nor delusional.

Actually it's quite obvious you care, otherwise you wouldn't be insulting them for not sharing it.

Done.
Have a nice day.

Exactly. He just knows her as "Harvey's squeeeeze-uh/ little bunny"

 

[Hammer!]

Every time I see a response like this, I facepalm. Folks acting like Taxi Driver hasn't been around for decades.

lol Taxi Driver has absolutely nothing to do with anything I said.

God damn. I gotta see this Parasite movie. Nothing but praise since Cannes.

It's by Bong Joon-ho, of course you gotta see it.

 

[FunkMiller]

I think maybe i will prefer Phoenix. Don't get me wrong, i love Ledger, but from what i saw in the leaks, Phoenix is scary AF. He truly acts like a complete psychopath.

By this definition, John Wayne Gacy is the best version of The Joker ever.

Seriously... when did it become a thing that our favourite comic book characters have to be reduced to hideous, scary, one dimensional monsters? Is it a Snyder edgelord thing?

The Joker isn’t just a psychopath. He’s a flamboyant criminal, with a ‘flair for the theatrical’ just like his arch nemesis. Because he’s... you know... a mainstream comic book character.

If this Joker movie turns out to just be Joaquin Phoenix with green hair and a load of greasepaint acting like some incel version of Travis Bickle then it really won’t be a Joker movie at all. It’ll also deserve all the criticism it receives. We shall see...

Why do you get so triggered every time someone says something positive or imply they may like this version of Joker more than Ledger's? I'm talking about MY opinion. I think I will like this version more. If you like the Ledger version more after watching this film then good for you. I like the fact this version of the Joker is SCARY and feels real. if you disagree then tell me, but don't act like i'm stupid for thinking that.

And the Joker is a monster. He stopped being a kid's character a long time ago. Maybe when he killed Jason Todd, or when he paralyzed Barbara, or when he kidnapped Tim and made him witness all the atrocities he did in Christmas, or so many ****ed up **** he has done. There's something called evolving characters and the Joker has evolved a lot since it's original version. Don't tell you are one of the guys that thinks just because a character is from a comic book it can't be more than that? Joker has MANY versions. Ledger is just one of them. He isn't the definitive Joker. He's not even close to the Joker from the comics. Does that mean it's bad? No, of course not.

Jack, Ledger and Phoenix are all playing wildly different versions of the same character. It’s almost unfair to compare them all.

Leto was playing...well, I’m not really sure.

Exactly. People like to act like their favorite version of the character is the definitive one when they forget how many versions of Joker are.

May I ask what's the difference between "best narrative" and "best directed"?

"Best narrative film" poll is the "Best film" poll. "Best directed film" is the "Best director" poll.

 

[Hollis Mason]

I kinda feel sorry for Leto. He's a good actor and i think with a good script and director, he could've been a great Joker. But now he's a joke.

I believe best narrative means, the film with the best overall story. Best direction is just that, the film that was directed the best.

Got it, thanks.

 

[Orb]

Top 5 and #2 best directed is still pretty damn good considering all the ways this movie could've gone wrong lol

Maybe Morbius will redeem him lmao, but I don't have a lot of faith in that director, and he's playing in his action movie wheelhouse for that movie
