Comment on ‘Joker: Folie à Deux’ to Lose $150 Million to $200 Million in Theatrical Run After Bombing at Box Office

Yeah it would have worked if they waited another 5 years before trying to beat the horse for nostalgia value. They were impatient.

People saw the first film as a novel concept with a new exciting take on a classic character. People are going to see the sequel as something… not fresh.

Exciting is not a word I would use to describe the Joker movie.

  From stairs dancing to shooting talk show hosts, I think a lot of people would disagree with you.

The penguin origin story is another shoe-in I feel. I don’t see it mentioned often. Is it decent it drab?

In an interview Todd Philips said he and Joaquin had no plans for a second movie until Joaquin had a dream about doing a second movie

  Maybe dreams should actually remain memes.
