Cinematography looks to be outstanding once again but I still have a problem with Phillips humanizing the character in this way. I'd probably have no issue with it if it wasn't the Joker tbh :heh:
:yeshrug:Basically this…bro just doesn’t feel like the Joker. Granted there’s plenty of versions of the character. But this one just isn’t it shouldn’t never been named Joker. But I’m still excited to see how this movie plays out.

Folie a Deux is a term that represents a very real phenomena when two people (usually a couple) share a type of psychosis. This could definitely be happening in both of their collective “imaginations”.

Its cosplay but with following one of the GOATs playbook. Todd Phillips basically admitted as such. There is nothing Harley Quinn or Joker about this.


Which you gotta give him credit for crafting such a strong look and vibe around a "comic character". And now he gets a 200 million dollar budget for a non action comic book movie.

The hustle is impressive. I liked the 1st one ok for what it was , but if this is more half baked mental health shenanigans story for most of the movie.....

Eh Im not sure it will hit the same even for the people who loved the 1st movie.

FWIW I hope its great, but I see signs there isnt much of a unique story there again. We'll see though.
