    I just can not get excited about this. I was incredibly disappointed by the first one, and I'm not particularly enticed by what looks to be a very muted Harley Quinn.

    Joker without Batman is like…Shredder without the Ninja Turtles failing to cut him slack when he attacks.

    Yesterday, I heard it was 50-50 love or hate it like "Alien: Romulus".
    Now today, a new batch of reviews are in, and it's up to fresh on RT.

    An interesting complaint I heard about the film is that Lady Gaga is barely in the movie and if we saw her more it would have made a better movie.

    It's so fuckin' bad, it's like a DVD extra of an alternate ending that got scrapped for being two and a half hours long and also pointless and stupid. :jayzus:

    I haven't heard anything good about this movie. I really liked the first one, but from what I hear, the natural follow up didn't happen.

    It's a massive "fuck you" to anyone that enjoyed the first movie or sympathized with Arthur at the end. You can tell how much hate Phillips has for both the Joker as a concept, and for his own audience.

    It's a two and a half hour temper tantrum by a "serious" artist.

    This is what I've heard. That and the music sucks and doesn't move the story along.

    I'll catch it on Blu-ray.
    I collected Fant4stic and Madame Web.
    What the heck. Worst case; I'll get MST3K fun with it.

    Before copyright was a thing, someone wrote a fake sequel to Don Quixote where he gets sent to an asylum forever.
    This feels similar to that situation.
    Except this would be like Servantes paying the guy to ruin Don Quixote, printing it, sending it out, then going "hey wait a minute...".

    I personally thought the first film was just Taxi Driver with grease paint, so I'm not surprised the second movie is about as good as one could expect "Taxi Driver 2" to be.

    Although, if we take that ending as canon....:thinking:
