Bold take coming from the guy who made Fight Club (having the narrator use Travis and Rupert as fake names when he attends support groups is a more subtle form of homage, I guess).

Re: Joker origin Movie

Breaking Bad got treated differently because it was an original TV show with all-new characters that immediately managed to establish a compelling moral grey area in its premise - terminally ill...

Eh, not really. It provides the necessary come-down that follows Arthur's most triumphant moment by bringing him back to reality, kind of like the ending of Brazil in that regard. It's basically a...

Re: Joker origin Movie

Probably has to do with the controversy around how its...haphazard approach to its deeper thematic meaning might radicalise dudes with Joker avatars or some such nonsense (which did not exist when...

Re: Joker origin Movie

Personally, I'm not sure what Arthur's age is even supposed to be - we don't necessarily have to assume that he's the same age as Phoenix himself. He might be in such an unhealthy physical condition...

Re: Joker origin Movie

I think you can make the case that

the asylum scene is necessary because hey gotta "punish" the bad guy somehow - even The Dark Knight had Joker get captured. Also, you get the compromise of the...

Yeah, I've known about the guy in that video for a while now. He's one of those right-wing commentators who thinks that simply aggravating the left in and of itself is a worthwhile goal for pop...

Re: Joker origin Movie

I question how much Taxi Driver sincerely praises "traditional values", though. It underlines the flaws in Travis's plan to form a relationship with Betsy as a means of becoming a "normal" person...
