      Real talk, Joker is not as good as everyone seems to think. Mashing up Taxi Driver & King of Comedy & pasting DC onto it is hardly originality incarnate, & it has virtually nothing to say about “the system, man” except to paint protesting against the rich as villainy Logan, OTOH

      Frankly, I don’t even think it did a good job of making Joker’s origin sympathetic or understandable. Pretty sure a lot of people had shit parents, no mental health support, & got mugged more than twice in 1980s NYC & didn’t go full murderclown.

      It seems to exist to be an incel manifesto rather than tell a story, as there really isn’t much story to it It couldn’t even be bothered to work in Regean emptying mental health facilities in the 80s when it was RIGHT THERE. No, more footage of people of color being mean plz!

      On top of all that, not to be a comic book scold, but Joker literally can’t be the story of “our” Joker. Phoenix is 48 and that’s about how old Arthur looks. Wayne is what, 8? So when Batman is at his peak at 30, he’s brawling with a 70 year old Joker?

      Replying to @catvalente

      Tbf the whole final act of the movie is about the Joker becoming a movement, and even says in this universe Joe Chill was "a Joker", so it seems pretty likely the genius chemist criminal mastermind Batman fights isn't Arthur, just someone inspired by him
