I'm very on board with the idea, up until the being directed by Todd Phillips part.
Film This Weird Period Batman-less Joker Movie That Makes No Sense But Is, Like, Fascinating, Isn't It?
- Thread starter Mockney
- Start date
Just reminded me of how terrible Suicide Squad was/is.
I think we should make a Joker movie. feck it, why not? Let’s just have everyone make a Joker movie and whoever makes the best one gets to run all western culture, forever.

You even included the animated video on demand ones. You secretly love them. Being a nerd is cool now, so don't be ashamed.
I just copy and pasted from wikipedia. You're the biggest nerd on here.
Coming from the football and basketball nerd!

I think people who watch comic movies and pretend they are good are definitely the worst kind. Every one of those cunta who was excited about suicide squad and started talking about it two years before it was out and such should be perma banned from this forum. And from life.
Joker has been done to death now. Batman has some great villians. Where's the Victor Zsasz movie?
I'm just disappointed they ignored Tommy Wiseau's audition. He's certainly crazy enough.
I watched a fan made Joker series on YouTube years ago. I think it was set between the Dark Knight and the Dark Knight Rises. It was great! It came out before Dark Knight Rises and it got so much recognition that the people behind it were contacted by Warner Brothers themselves before the release of DKR.
Nah, nothing will top this:
What a great fan series this was! All the way back to 2009.
Wiseau sounds a bit like Gru from Despicable me
The younger guy in the fan "therapy session" video was far better than Wiseau.Mark Hamill's got nothing on Tommy Wiseau's laugh. "Oh hi, Bats. Hahaha". What a missed opportunity.
The Joaquin Phoenix Joker movie won't have Dr. Phil in it though, so it'll be garbage.

“The whole thing starts with Harley kidnapping Dr. Phil. Played by Dr. Phil hopefully. Because her and the Joker are having problems with their relationship,” screenwriter Glenn Ficarra, who worked on the screenplay with fellow This Is Us alum John Requa, toldMetro. “We had so much fun, I don’t know if we have had more fun writing a script in our career.”

Edit: Yeah, what Mockney posted below.

The Joaquer.
I saw PTA The Master,Ramsay's You Were Never Really There and Mangold's Walk The Line and a few others in there too .
Think he probably meant to post this...
Still no fecking clue what this is... looks kinda good though. Lot of Scorsese vibes. Todd Phillips is the only questionable component.

I want to hate this just because of Phoenix but I know i’ll For sure end up watching it but I hope to god that Ronald McDonald looking mother trucker isn’t the final joker and just some guise before he becomes the Joker.
Why? He is a fantastic actor and by and large has parts in top quality movies.
Phoneix is a fantastic actor, and he was really good as a villain in gladiator.
Different kind of role of course, but he can definitely pull off that whole creepy/unhinged shtick.

Bizarre for DC to potentially get their act together with their cinematic Universe so late in the day.
Like walking in when the party's over.

Looks better than Jared Letos joker.
I'll give this a try when it comes out

Anything would be - his joker was horrendous and that entire movie was a dog's dinner.
To be honest I’m not even sure, I just have an irrational hatred of the man and go out of my way to avoid anything that he is in. Might also have something to do with the films Signs and The Village.
Just seems to me to be a terrible choice to play the Joker. In true CAF fashion he’s over 28 so he’s done. He looks about 50 but I think he is 42 or something and they cast him for an origin story. Seems like the Affleck mistake all over again.
Fair enough I guess - for me though he is one of the few actors that if I know is in a movie I'll want to see it and expect it to be very good. He is one of the best actors out there I think. Watch The Master - he is absolutely fantastic in that.
Just watched the trailer - I'm in.
Also checkout Lynn Ramsay's 2018 gem You Were Never Really There , Audiard's first American produced film The Sisters Brothers and Spike Jonze's HER.
Checking out so far.
I see why people were saying it had taxi driver vibes.
The trailer looks fantastic and quite a plausible story of Joker's disturbed past. Of course, have to wait for the movie, but they might have made the best casting choice since Heath Ledger in Phoenix.
Anyone who has seen what Cameron Monaghan has been doing on Gotham would dispute this. As he’s arguably been the 2nd best Joker.
If I had to pick one actor who I thought could play an incredible Joker, I would have picked Joaquin Phoenix, to be honest. Just watched the trailer and it looks sensational. Hooked me right in. Like another person wrote above, it has that Scorsese feel to it, but also perhaps a small sprinkle of Tim Burton, also.
This could be a real sleeper hit, right out of left field.

Phoenix is a fantastic actor
Looks fantastic.
I hope he comes across more villainous as the film progresses. Also is that a young Bruce Wayne in the trailer?
