more than anything it just seems like a massive loss of leverage for Phillips. he’ll probably get to make movies but never gonna get a long leash to make whatever he wants again.

They said the same thing about Rion Johnson

If you’re referring to The Last Jedi, it made $1.3 billion on a $300 million profit. Joker 2 is set to flop.

If you’re referring to The Last Jedi (which wasn’t nearly as bad as Joker 2 apparently is), that was a pretty different situation with swapping directors in the middle of a trilogy, which was more of a problem with Disney and RJ imo. I’d still be confident giving RJ his own projects and coming out with a good product.
Here Todd Phillips just proved he could go completely off the deep end with his own sequel.
