I like Breaking Down.


I think we are talking about the same film, but its Falling Down.


Also, that film has a strange connection to Batman lore: it was directed by Joel Schumacher!

Holy crap I had no idea Joel directed FD!

Lost Boys.

Check the trunk of his car.

Epic Comeback as in what?

They already had their epic comeback with Aquaman breaking 1B something even JL couldn?t accomplish.

Joker ain?t breaking 1B.

Or do you mean critically as in Joker will be DC?s first superhero movie to be considered Nolan TDK quality.

As in more respect and not copy/paste acclaims every MCU movie gets from most critics.
 
Many of you already hate/move toward skeptical because it's a DC movie- if Nolan directed it you'd be eye-rolling and since he didn't the claim of "all hope is lost" becomes your motto:lol

..and oh yeah Batman Begins and The Dark Knight still outclass anything Marvel has done...by a long stretched out mile:rotfl
 
The early reviews are good.

IGN 10/10

Empire 5 stars (their highest rating)

:woo

One thing the IGN mentioned, which we talked about here, regarding the makeup hiding Phoenix's face.

"Arthur’s uncontrollable laughter looks as though it physically pains him; his body is rail-thin and battered, his misery is etched on his deeply creased face. He looks healthier and livelier -- dare I say happier -- as he transforms into Joker than he ever does as Arthur. Phoenix captures all these tiny nuances in Arthur and his interactions with others that reveal so much about this disturbed individual’s inner life."
 
Wow, I hope those reviews can be believed.

As someone who can appreciate both, I'll bite on this - the MCU wasn't going for the seriousness of Nolan's Batmans and had a plan for a wider universe from the start. On the flipside Nolan's Batmans deliberately steered away from the hyper-fantastical and Batman was the only 'super'hero in that universe and I believe Nolan stated as much - it was never going to expand to include other Superheroes.

So to me it's a bit like saying which is better - Alien or Godfather? Each one is masterful at what it is and what it set out to be. Neither is 'better', it's only a matter of which you're in the mood for at that particular time.

Nah, Godfather is way better. It's also better than your robot buddy...sorry, cybernetic organism. Silly robot movie. :nana:
 
I?m super thrilled if this movie is a masterpiece.

Believe me I am no DC hater and while I grew up a 75/25 Marvel/DC reader for many years DC movies ruled cinema while Marvel only had a Hulk tv show to its name.

Superman 2 was the first time we witnessed superheroes fighting each other in a major metropolitan city no less!

I am looking forward to this Joker movie I will be there first show opening night but no matter how great it is and no matter how great TDK is they still don?t diminish or out class what Marvel was able to accomplish.

Cap?s moment in EG has now joined cinemas other greatest iconic moments nothing to scoff at or brush aside as just fluff.

Lets see if this Joker can join that list hopefully it will i?m certainly rooting for it.

Should I start judging or criticizing DC because they only seem to create masterpieces with just one character, The Joker.

As soon as that one character was removed from the Nolan trilogy narrative it went downhill even with the same director!

Marvel put up on screen how many characters again?

Exactly.

I doubt you'll like it. Joker won't be doing triple backflip kicks in highly choregraphed fight scenes. :wave
