The Dude Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Looks great, but same as Heath Ledger's Joker, just slapping clown makeup on a crazy fella misses the point of the character. Quote Link to comment
sho Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 A little troll job by the Joker movie? Quote In Joker, Joaquin Phoenix stars as the Clown Prince of Crime, whose name has been confirmed to be "Arthur Fleck." While there are a number of reasons why the character might use this moniker, some fans still think the name is ultimately a dig at former Batman actor Ben Affleck. It's unclear if the film will reveal that his birth name is Arthur Fleck or if it's a stage name of sorts, though hearing the name spoken in the new trailer is causing fans to remember that, when shortened, the name could be read as "A. Fleck." This is likely just a coincidence, but some fans seem to think this was definitely a nod to Justice League star Ben Affleck, who confirmed earlier this year he was leaving the DC Extended Universe behind.

In this incantation, Batman is in his middle 50's, he's been through the fights, he's weathered, scarred, tired. I don't want some pretty little POS playing this Batman, (the only incantation I like), I want a tough S.O.B. playing batman... Possibilities: Sean Bean, Randy Couture, maybe Russell Crowe Quote Link to comment

No, we got a lame a$$ "death metal" batman... Google Frank Miller Batman, and you'll get a better idea, and see that the CB batman isn't close to that...

Toe Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Looks like a Joker-themed remake of Falling Down to me. Quote Link to comment
sho Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Saw it last night. @Toe, I was getting the same vibe from the movie. I will say, if DC/Warner could figure it out and make more movies that are this good, I'd gladly go watch more of their movies. Quote Link to comment
