Nah the joker got raped buddy. He went into Arkham acting like the joker full on once they raped him he didn’t want to be joker anymore and renounced it live on tv. So yea they raped the joker out of him.

Cause it’s literally a waste of time lol. Like if you see a character grow and in the next one he becomes the same or even worse than what’s the point.
Also I don’t understand why people believe you should just shrug it off cause “joker is a moniker”
Nah imagine if every joker just did that. Heath joker wasn’t the real joker he inspired the actual joker . He dressed as a clown for no reason.

Why? They haven't, only this one has, that logic is arbitrary.

In regards to what's the point, well, it's interesting? What's the point to make a story what if Superman landed in Russia? Fair, it might not be interesting to all, but at least to me that's far more interesting than here's an unhinged man that likes to tell jokes and kill people.

It's also not shrugging it off. That is the whole concept, that is the whole point of the films - which is why I don't understand if you were onboard with the first one suddenly this is too much?

Like I said cause it was a waste of time. I wanted to see the joker become joker not some sad man who doesn’t want to be the joker anymore. The first film is quite literally a decent into mad ness which is entertaining. This movie is him on trial and being pushed around the entire film. Of course that’s not interesting or compelling.
Superman landing in Russia is interesting cause he’s still Superman just a different Superman with different morals. This movie had no inkling of joker and when it did he got raped and renounced it. What kinda character arc is that?
Especially for two hrs. Don’t call it joker if that is your message. Call it Arthur.
 
The thing that confuses me about this duology is: why are these DC films? The first one made sense being a DC property in that he became the "Joker" by film's end. Now with the second one released, and giving additional context to the first film, why even bother associating with DC. Arthur was never the "Joker". While I am totally for character reinvention, this Harley has barely anything in common with the Harley we know and isn't really a reinvention, but rather a character that is relatable in name only and barely that imo.

The first was good on its own merit, but now I just kind feel like-what was the point? To me it feels like the DC association(in hindsight) was made to put butts in seats. It's totally fine do do stories of side characters for big universes like DC has, but this was always gonna be its own thing and(again with context of the second film) just kinda feels like a waste to put all this effort into a character this secluded from a larger story that ultimately went nowhere. If this was the plan they would have been better off making something at a much smaller scale i.e. The Penguin show, but even that has better connections to a larger world.

Yeah by Todd Phillips' logic I guess "Adventures in Babysitting" was an MCU flick because the little girl walked around pretending to be Thor.
 
Ah yes, the character in this DC Comics movie referred to as “Joker”, in Gotham City, who dresses as a clown with green hair and makeup, who gets sent to Arkham after a murder spree, who constantly laughs, isn’t the Joker, and it’s silly to infer as much. My mistake. :lol

There’s not even a DC logo or credit at the start of the film. There’s nothing that says this is a DC comics based story or production besides the title and maybe something in the credits.

It’s silly to completely ignore the entire third act and head cannon that this was The Joker no matter what the film states and tells you. I mean it flat out tells you he was not ever The Joker, twice.

The Joker, the actual batman villain and clown prince of crime in Gotham isn’t even in this movie.

You can complain all you want about it, but you’re reaching pretending like this is THE JOKER. The title of the films aren’t even “THE” Joker. It’s just JOKER.

Again, I am not a fan of it either, but people are reaching on these complaints when the film isn’t even about the actual joker.

A much better complaint is the fact that they gave us a two and a half hour film about essentially a bum that doesn’t matter. :lol
 
Wait -- the DC logo tells you whether you're watching an actual Joker or not?

Someone tell Caesar Romero. Also, Batman animated series Joker.
Go look at the covers of the volumes for BTAS and tell me there’s not a DC logo slapped on it.

Go look at the posters for Joker 2 and let me know if you see a DC logo on any of them.

Ah yes people are reaching. Dresses the guy up in clown makeup, green hair , make him crazy, and have it set in gotham. Yea I can see why nobody would think this isn’t a joker movie now
 
What the hell is the difference between a criminal who wears clown makeup, causes violent riots, is linked to Bruce Wayne, and calls himself Joker and the "actual Joker?" :confused:
The fact that the first one you described clearly states that he’s not the Joker. :lol

Guy is in a black alien suit, has teeth and looks like Spider-Man . It’s not venom cause it’s not called THE venom. Don’t know why people think it’s the actual venom

You can think all you want, but it’s not my problem that you can’t understand that he’s not actually the joker. :lol

Inspired the guy at the end who cut his face to maybe be the joker? sure, but arthur was never the joker. It’s not a concept i’ve come up with, Arthur and the film clearly state it. :lol
