In all seriousness, are you guys still getting the Hot Toys or Inarts Phoenix Joker? I still want the HT version, but this film is making me reconsider it.
Everyone is getting raped!!
You getting raped!

And not huge news…
DC Movies still underwhelm and underproduce at the box office…
Now go burn your comics…cancel all your Hot Toy and InArt POs…
And in the same voice as Critical Drinker…
‘Just go away now…’

Oh by the way, Todd Phillips confirmed the sequel is indeed pointless and it only exists because we, the viewers, are a bunch morons who expected Phoenix to fight Batman. Or at least that's how Todd interpreted the discussion people were having.
"Todd Phillips: One of the things that people never understood about the first movie was, “I don't get it. He visits Bruce Wayne and he's 30 years older than Bruce Wayne. What kind of geriatric Joker is going to fight in the future?” I don't know if you've ever saw the script of the first movie. The first film is called Joker. It's not called The Joker, it's called Joker. And the first film under the script always said "An origin story." Never said THE origin story. It was this idea that maybe this isn't THE Joker. Maybe this is the inspiration for the Joker. So, in essence at the end of this movie (Folie à Deux), the thing you're being left with is “Wait, what is that thing happening behind him? Is that the guy?”
The main reason the sequel exists, is to show Arthur was only the inspiration for the real Joker, as that is what was planned from the beginning.
I don't know about you fellas but that flew right over my simpleton brain, perhaps the first movie should've just ended with Arthur getting shanked by Temu Ledger, that way there'd be no doubt left in my mind that middle aged incarcerated Arthur in a timeline with child Bruce, would not be facing off Batman in his life time.
But I guess I just had to watch a 2 hour musical of the character being destroyed, demoralized, raped and murdered to realize that.
Bravo Phillips, thanks for enlightening my feeble brain with your thought provoking piece of cinematic art!

Part 1 is still a great thing!
Buy it.
I didn’t cancel Raiders Indy because Dial of Destiny sucked.

What if we get the same turnaround in quality for The Batman 2 or Andor 2?

Yeah, but Indy didn't get raped. He was just old.

>In a candid interview with Empire Magazine, Phillips admitted there’s a genuine chance things could go sideways. The reason? Joaquin Phoenix’s return wasn’t just about cashing in on past success, it was rather fueled by the thrill of the potential train wreck. As Phillips put it, the risk of disaster was part of what drew Phoenix back into the fray. He said,
>"If it doesn’t feel like it’s dangerous, if there’s not a good chance that you’re gonna fail spectacularly then… what’s the point? That was literally the reason to do it, The only reason Joaquin would even do a sequel is if it felt frightening to him," said Phillips
>The first one subverted the expectations of what it was. So how do you do that again? I always said, early on, the film should feel as if it was made by crazy people. Like the inmates are running the asylum, It does feel like a big swing. You just go, ‘Well, f– it. Why not? What are we all doing here, if not to do that?

Like I said before, they destroyed their creation for ***** and giggles and got paid handsomely for it. Good for them I guess, bad for everyone else.
