![[SPOILERS] JOKER Director Q&A | TIFF 2019](/img/n.gif)
You know a movie has impacted you when 5 days after your still thinking about it
That is so true, man...
And are considering seeing it again. I couldn't even figure out if I loved or hated this film until I was on my way home. I had to really think and process it.
True.... seen the.movie twice and now watching youtube reviews about joker... it's that enigmatic
when in 2 weeks you watch it 3 times
For real! One of the best movies I have ever seen; Definitely going to see it again.
Notice how Joaquin remembers all the crew members’ names and gives them credit and recognition in his interviews - shows how humble he is 💕
especially Larry, the DP
I know it's so nice to see that. He's such a nice guy💚
@@angiieVEVO Hhahah
@@angiieVEVO ahhahahahahha
Yeah but Fuck LARRY though
Brilliant "interview". No stupid questions, no annoying talk show host, just the actor and director talking abour their creation...
was thinking that too! interviewers like to feel important, they are not.
I prefer this method, but Peter Travers is pretty good if you haven't seen his channel yet. It's quite small but great production
Andre Benacchio hope your referring to jimmy fallon what an annoying cube he is 😂
Maybe because they cut that out 👀
Andre Benacchio the Jimmy Kimmel interview was abysmal, Fallon was surprisingly good though
This movie didn't feel like a movie, it was more of a life event.
@fifi is not my name Thanks dude, good to know that it wasn't just me feeling this way 😍
relaaaax
@Zach Higgins I guess it's because this movie spoke for the "mortal"people and for people with issues as well.
People with a lot of money, media, church and corporations dictate our lives with no remorse. They see us either as money bags with legs or as tools for their filthy agendas.
We are all basically slaves with illussions of freedom served to us on every corner...
And we will be slaves as long as we do nothing with it... And I don't know what about you but... I really don't like being perceived as a lifeless tool.
True
Zach Higgins I think it’s because we could see ourselves do same thing Arthur did if we were in his shoes that’s why lot of people are uncomfortable with this masterpiece
How do you top Heath Ledger's Joker performance? You don't. You make it your own. Joaquin Phoenix took the Joker role to a place I could never imagine... no chemical spills, no "superhero-esque" plot line just society kicking someone who is already down.
we live in a society
i didn't think was that simple, but the simplistic way to understand joker, sometimes is better.
Ledgers strange mouth smacking noises always got on my nerves. It was like he had just got done eating baby food.
@GROBNOB the Troll Heath was taller than Joaquin...
I agree he took joker to place I never thought of. The way they did this movie could mean batman could be just as different, and with this joker movement, Gotham could be even more chaotic.
Todd Phillips deserves a Oscar just as much as Joaquin Phoenix.
Disagree
He won't have an easy fight....Scorsese and Tarantino will be in the running.....and their respective films are acclaimed masterpieces too
@@illaveyoubutler2 shoot youre right
offf couuuuurse, totally agree with you...He directed this masterpiece for God's sake!!!!!!
Joker got the top prize at the Venice film festival. And he’s earned a ton of respect from this movie. Even if he doesn’t get nominated, he’s still got a lot to show for this
I'm thankful movies such as this exist in today's climate.
Yeah really not enough superhero genre films today! The highest form of art for cinema...
On the stairs dancing to Gary Glitter
That was dangerous in this PC climate.
@@vivena9 Watch the film, it's an art house film (won the Golden Lion at Venice with an 8 minute standing ovation) disguised as a supervillain movie to get as many people as possible to see it
@@vivena9 your nutass hasnt even seen it with that dumbass comment
DevilDagger this is far from typical superhero films
It’s crazy how thin he had to get. He looks so healthy now that he almost doesn’t look like the same person at all.
You just increase the calories above maintenance and the weight will come back on easily.
@Gray Kin same :( feels pretty bad
He look like my grandpa
Gray Kin you need to find out how many calories you burn a day (TDEE) and then have a consistent nutritional plan that has your daily caloric intake above that. It’s not rocket science
Gray Kin if your actually eating well above maintenance you will put on weight, if your only 100 over then of course you might not. Eat 3500 calories a day and you will put on weight.
We need more movies with character study and less CGI. This one, Joker, has brought back art to the film!
@Hi How Are You? I knew about that, but mostly it was used for the backgrounds, not for fancy special effects
When CGI is done good, you don't notice it that's why movies with shit CGI stand out and give CGI a bad wrap
Hi How Are You? I think he meant the overuse of green screen sets and characters who aren’t really there.
hardly, there's loads of really great art films about if you look past the stuff the Disney has been churning out the last 5 years, horror has made some particularly interesting artistic steps in the last few years
Hi How Are You? What the fuck is wrong with you ? Is your Ego so hurt that you have to Pride others wrong ?
This guy actually had the balls to
Make it R rated, he didn’t care if it would bring in less money from the kids not showing up. He wanted to make the movie he wanted to make. Kids would get bored anyways. This definitely isn’t a kids movie. So anybody that wants to take your kids to this. Don’t.
PoisedPlanet was rated 14A here in Canada
@@CarmQ It was??? I'm in Canada and had no clue of this lol.
None Ofyourbusiness I live in Canada and it was listed as rated R
corbinamondo not where I live in Ontario. 14A. I have a screenshot but I can’t upload it here lol
None Ofyourbusiness wow. I just looked it up at my local theatre and it says 14a. I must have been looking at the American poster setup outside the door. Canada is fucked up XD
Oscar or robbed
delatroy he doesn’t give a fuck about an awsrd
It's gonna get robbed, most likely because of how "sensitive" it is. It's unfortunate.
Oscars isnt about how good a movie is anymore, its about how woke a movie is
SJW Leftists HAAATE this movie -- doubt he'll even be nominated...
Knowing end game came out this year its highly unlikely because it was popular and made a shit ton of money and threw in some leftist stuff so even though Joker might be the most deserving and best film of the year it isnt gonna win because hollywood’s hard on for leftist statements
Acting is a solid 12/10, phenomenal film
Michael Batchelor lmao solid 12/10. Completely agree.
1000/10!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
not a troll...I honestly think it was a good performance but not perfect...most notably the laugh. It just doesn't come across 100% genuine to me and I just couldn't ignore it. I know a lot will say they loved it and I'm not saying I'm right/you're wrong...but it's natural to reject things that we perceive are not true/real and for me, I couldn't get around the laugh.
@@eeyvrcs He's emulating a medical condition bruh
@@troy3423 bruh...your comment shows that you don't understand my comment nor the medical condition Pseudobulbar Affect (PBA). First, I already knew Joaquin was portraying a medical condition...you can't watch the movie and not know this. Second, I researched (PBA) and watched several videos of real people suffering PBA laughter and sorrow before posting my comment. PBA laughter/sorrow looks exactly the same as real laughter/sorrow...you can't tell the difference...so, it doesn't really matter that he's portraying PBA or not. In fact, I could argue that Joaquin portrayal of PBA isn't completely accurate but that's not my point nor do I care...my point was simply that his laugh looked fake, forced, manufactured (to me). Whether he's portraying PBA or not the laugh should look genuine.
The part where Arthur is stuck laughing on the train with that pained expression while those three guys harass him drove me close to tears. It's like I could really feel his pain.
Same. That scene really broke my heart. I felt like going into the screen to protect him from those jerks.
I think that if Chaplin had been born in the 1970s he MIGHT have brought home a lot from Joaquin's Joker. And viva versa. In the age of CGI dominance of Hollyweird this depiction of the human spirit is remarkable.
What kind of porn do you like to watch? 🙄
God, I was so worried for what they were gonna do to him. Felt ecstatic when he defended himself.
That's why he's such an amazing actor and this role is epic bcs he truly was able to make us feel what the character was feeling. We actually have empathy for the Joker cuz he makes you see & understand.
The scene where he looks up at the tv in the hospital is so sad. The look on his face just cuts right to my heart.
Same. It‘s completely killing me. That childish, innocent and naive smile of joy and unbelievable surprise. And then when the realisation comes that AGAIN he‘s only being betrayed and kicked at, when that smile turns into those big eyes of grief and disbelief and appointment... I just can‘t
I knooowwww. His smile when he firs sees himself in the TV is the biggest most genuine smile I had seen of Arthur and his excitement. But then when his face turns sad and then angry, my heart really broke for him.
Another part that absolutely broke my heart is when the boss at Haha’s is questioning him and yelling at him about “stealing the sign” from his clown job, and Arthur does these sad puppy eyes and says “Why would I keep a sign” and his voice even cracks. Oh my gosh that almost made me wanna cry, he looked so small.
that’s one of the parts that really got me & almost made me cry
All V Yes me too!
I thought it was kind of badass. Took it as him thinking "Okay...I'll show you"
“joaquin phoenix makes everything intense” nothing but the truth right there
Joaquin looks like a completely different person when he's not Arthur Fleck.
I was thinking same
Well he gained about 20 pounds back from the 50 he loss to do the role.
Handsome fella ❤️
Congratulations!! You find out he is an actor
@@ravencademedia He lost 15 pounds, he confirmed that in his Jimmy Fallon interview
I have never, ever seen a performance like this.
LONG EDIT INCOMING: Thanks for the likes guys! For those few commenting with recommendations I wanna say a couple of things- I really appreciate all the love for good fucking actors and performances and I can tell that a lot of us share similar tastes in film which is fab. I've been a massive Phoenix fan for years and I have seen most of his work including The Master and You Were Never Really Here which are being recommended to me repeatedly. He is a phenomenal actor and I am a big fan of both these films but I will stand by that, in my opinion, Joker tops it for me. The reasons for this are many but also subjective seeing as this is all opinion.
But also just wanna say I'm not a huge fan of some of the tones coming through in a way that smacks of pretentious film buff. Saying stuff like 'well you should go watch x,y,z' and assuming I haven't seen films like Taxi Driver and The Machinist (both of which, again, are GREAT) is trying to make this a competition which it doesn't need to be. Phoenix in Joker is my favourite performance I have never seen and I have never seen anything like it. Please feel free to let me know what your fave performances are but don't jump the gun and make it out like your opinion is better than mine.
Soz if that came off as salty, peace and love for all good cinema woooooo
i use to think cercie lannister or al pacino and ledger were the best actors, this guy took it a notch higher he conveyed so much depth in a short time
so catch up on 'You Were Never Really Here'. He wiil blow your mind
@@10yonten Yeah, the ending to that movie was just as stunning and shocking as the Joker's...fucking great, eerie movie.
R. J. Garward what streaming platform is that on?
@@harrisonm2503 rarbgunblock
One of my favourite moments was "Forgot to punch out"
Dude, glad someone finally mentions this. Haha, that was nice!
For me, what makes a film so great are the minor details that fills the movie as a whole. There are multiple scenes where you're just "wtf?!"-king in on the corner. Scene are unpredictable, which is always good, the script is phenomenal and how Joaquin delivered them is an art.
Mine was the part where arthur stabs his co worker and scares the living shit out of the little guy that was so intense
@@misfitgaming106 So good
*dramatically breaks box*
I really hope Todd and Joaquin work together again in the future, they brought the best out in one another, IMO.
Nah
PT Anderson works better with Joaquin ohoenix
movie of the year
Bill he aint lying bill, this could easily be movie of the year
@@MegaDodgers13 +
I would say it was probably Ad Astra for me but this was an amazing film 😍
Definitely movie of the year, no doubt
Bill pretty sure your endgames no where near this movie UwU
This movie has some balls I haven't seen in decades. Phenomenal acting.
Oscar winning 100%
The dancing on the stairs is cinematic perfection and will become iconic over time. Joaquin is a rock star.
Your comment just gave me the chills. HELL YEAH TO THAT!
Yeahh.. this is like a punk rock n roll movie
It's rare to read comments and see so much love, that says a lot about this movie
M. Completely agreed. This is a character study. I feel sympathy, a sense of helplessness as he slips into complete madness
Says more about people than the movie tho
@@lisabender5208 I completely agree. I left the cinema not feeling a need for violence, but the opposite. We need to be compassionate towards one another. The film makes you look inward at yourself and think outward towards each other. It's a hypodermic needle of empathy that I think society needs.
To go off on a tangent point, I believe the corrupt critics have unanimously panned this film because it promotes a discourse that they do not want people to discuss. And yet, as well as being entertaining, this film, Joker, wants us to talk.
See just talking to someone and showing some warmth like Arthur wanted costs nothing, it's free. And they don't like that at all. I believe the same media that denounce this film would much prefer to capitalise on mental health instead for immoral profits. But look at the reaction Joker has received from its audiences, the conversations we're having, its success at the box office... and that makes me very happy indeed.
M. I was going to say the same thing! It’s rare to see positive comments on social media. 🥰
DC do me a favor.. Never give your company up to Disney... Or else we wont get masterpieces in the future like Joker.
Queent why would they do that
@@maul5578 money talks. why do you think marvel did it. :/
They can’t Time Warner owns DC
believe it or not, Infinity War and Endgame were both masterpieces. Russo brothers did an exceptionally great job.
Joker is a masterpiece, too. But it has nothing to do with Disney or any other studio. It seemed like a totally independent movie as if Todd Phillips didn't want DC to interfere and f*** it up like Justice League.
@@Jay-bt3wo im sorry but endgame and infinity war weren't masterpieces, it was grand and amazing only because of the 10 year's legacy behind it
The most scary thing is, that the more Joker he gets the more likeable and relatable he is to average person.
kristi.s ^underrated comment
Whoa good point 🤔
This is good. On point observation.
It's more about him finally becoming comfortable in his own skin. That's what makes it so relatable.
kristi.s 👏👏
This film is incredible. Even if you hate comics this film is a Tour de force.
Wait a minute, have they started up the phrase tour-de-force again for movie reviews?
Well I guess this movie is now Worthy of what was previously a worn-out phrase for movie reviews :-)
Bit of a joke there, but I could never call myself a joker...
When you say "Tour de Force" I think of ze Germans in 1940s
@@joejohnson1004
Blitzkrieg, driving them to the English Channel at Dunkirk...
Maginot line bypassed
Some might think of a bicycle race
Tour de France (force), it took the Nazis right around twice as much time as the tour de France 😜 six weeks to conquer France from May 10th 1940 on...
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:German_Tour_de_France_stage_winners
You mean your de France?
Love how humble Joaquin is. He's a tremendously gifted actor.
NOT my typical flavor of movie, but WOW! Just WOW!
Joaquin + Joker = Oscar
@Bill why are you so upset?
It wont happen
Lol this Bill is a fucken internet troll
Oooo he really is Mr J!
He is telling everyone fuck Oscar. I am the joker.
I could listen to a 3 hour pod cast with these two talking about this film. And then listing to it again. So So So good
I've just watched this MASTERPIECE
@Tech CP You won't be disappointed.
It's a movie that, if you think it will be a masterpiece, it will be a masterpiece. If you think it will be good, it will be good. If you think it's meh, then it's meh, etc.
@@FroggyTheNinja na fam. It's a masterpiece.
@@randomthoughtservice9043 That's because you went in expecting it to be a masterpiece.
@@FroggyTheNinja was expecting it to be dogshit like suicide squad. My mind was blown after it finished, it really stood up to Nolan and Hamil.
As someone who struggles with mental illnesses this movie was incredibly hard to watch. I felt like everything was real. I felt like I was Arthur. I cried durning the whole movie.
Words cannot describe how impressed I am with Joaquin. Comparing him to to Arthur they are like two different people. His talent is insane. Phenomenal.
I am sorry for your suffering.
AvaKazoo God Bless You!
The Dark Knight, Logan and Joker.
They’re the only ones that had different genres like any other classic films.
Daniel Bautista Winter Soilder and Civil War were political and phycological thrillers respectively, Ant-Man was a heist film, and Homecoming and Shazam were teenage coming-of-age stories.
Movie World
The Dark Knight - Heat
Logan - No Country for Old Men/ Unforgiven
Joker - Taxi Driver/ King of Comedy
Shazam - BIG
Winter Soldier - Bourne Identity
@@danielbautista3176 . Very good! Agree
Adam Turner
Any other superhero can be like those movies.
Hulk - King Kong/Jekyll & Mr. Hyde
Raven - Carrie
Deadpool - Big Lebowski/Kill Bill
Black Panther - Braveheart
Venom - The Thing
i just want to know something, why do people like Logan so much? i thought it was alright. the ending was really emotional tho ill give it that
The more I hear from Joaquin, the more I love him as an artist. He literally knows the names of the crew people from the DP to the hair and make-up people and he goes out of his way to name them because, to him, they're crucial to the process. As someone behind the scene, I love that.
He's a true class act.
Look in Phoenix’ eyes. Dude has been through some pain.
So true. In real life Joaquin Phoenix has had a rough life.
HooksandBeats yeah I feel like he definitely has gone through something in life that way he locks in to play joker
Yeah...making the 911 phone call while your brother is dying right in front of you had to do something. Heartbreaking.
I BROKEMYOWNHEART i heard its pretty big but just rumors tho
Y’all gay and disrespectful
The stairs are symbolic of his direction in life at the time; at first they are his tired and difficult climb to a “normal” life, but in the end he dances down them as his free, proud decent into madness.
Worm Boy that's so insightful. I didn't think of the scene that way till now.
The stair scene was also a nice sunny day, something that was rare in the film.
Watched the movie yesterday. Such an awesome piece of work. I would be really disappointed if Joaquin does not get the Oscar for best Actor, and also the film is overall of a high quality be it the background score, lighting, colour and look of it. Very retro looking. Dark, gritty Gotham. Exactly how it should be portrayed. Kudos to everyone involved in this movie👏👏☺️☺️👌👌
@Bill man this bill guy is calling us sheep yet he can't get off of Scorsese's dick 🤦♂️ you are telling me that 1. Things are not allowed to be remade and IMPROVED 2. And that people are not allowed to express their own interests (the movie makers fans). Hell I didn't even know who Scorsese was until this movie, so actually wouldn't it be paying respects?
@Bill Thanks Bill!
@Bill bro why are you in every thread shit talking this movie, get a fucking life loser 😂
NO MORE WAITING!!! Joaquin Phoenix deserves an Oscar.
I wish he was in Shrek 2 also my favorite movie
@@radricdavis8508 i thought i was the only one thinking that
Kinda annoys me that we only see people saying this now he has deserved it more then he does for this one in movies he made years ago. The master was a better role then this and he really should have won it all the way. Or walk the line
@@johnwiggins3950 im with you, I love him for the master
@Hans maybe for Best Picture but im talking Best Actor.
Why is no one talking about how badass Joaquin's hair is?
When the riots broke out, and they busted him out of the police car. Yo, and with that smile, that gave me goosebumps................Ok, I can’t lie, the whole thing gave me goosebumps.
Help me plz....I’ve seen it two times i cant move on from this movie its still in my mind omg
@@hazel_mvedits9082 hahah i've seen it 4 times 5th time is tonight very great work of art this movie touched home and how it is to have mental illness, all he wanted was some help and some friends just to talk and listen.
Hey Its DaiSy I felt like a changed man after watching the movie
In my opinion this is the best film of the decade
Agreed 100%
Bold claim but I think you may be right, I can't wait to see it again!
In terms of production quality, out of this world acting, music, story, cinematography, atmosphere etc. it HAS to be in the Top 10 movies of ALL TIME.
*Incoming Endgame fanboys*:
@@ibrokemyownheart4953 Send in the clowns 😃
I haven't seen a performance like this in years, so the odds of anyone beating him to an Oscar this year is unlikely. Best actor without a doubt, but this movie could take 2 or 3 Oscars easy. It is that spectacular.
It'll probably be a black actor. Or someone playing a gay or lesbian or transgender. Oscars are very political. A straight white man winning? Hoy...might be a long shot.
I don’t think they’ll risk it with all the controversy. Don’t want those “Oscars celebrate white male violence” headlines. Sad really. I remember when films were awarded for their merits and not audiences world views.
Michael Deeks I think the opposite. The public is so overwhelmingly positive about JP’s performance that the Academy would be scared of the backlash if he lost. And pity the poor actor who had to go on the stage and accept the Oscar instead of him when everyone in the audience knows he wasn’t as good as Joaquin. The Oscars is petrified of irrelevance (based on their consistently dwindling ratings) and not rewarding this performance would speed up their irrelevance in the public eye.
@@thebatman4279 Not that I'm not sick of Hollywood's liberal BS, but 4 of the past 5 Best Actor winners have been straight white dudes. I think what will keep Joaquin out of it is the controversial nature of Joker. They'll nominate Phoenix but make up some bullshit like not wanting to be associated with Joker and give the award to someone else.
@@thebatman4279 trying too hard
Todd Phillips looks like Donald Sutherland but young
i’ve never been so obsessed with a movie. i can’t wait for this to come out on dvd because i’ll be buying it right away
Phoenix has been nominated 3 times for oscars but never won one yet, hopefully this year's Joker movie changes that. Anyone that skips this amazing movie because of some stupid & ridiculous 'controversy' - are idiots!
He won for Johnny cash. Did he not?
@@randomsht196 no oscar but grammy..
If DeNiro wasn't in it
it would be the perfect film
@@markjgaletti57 judge the film not the actor
Why is people playing these kind of roles are straight away getting shouts for Oscar. Someone playing a non mental person should be just as worthy.
This is such a special movie.
Happy to see Joaquin doing tons of interviews with a light attitude like this, personal interviews to big outlets (NYT, Vanity Fair, etc.) and going to screenings to surprise fans and spread the word about them film. For the first time he’s really playing the game and campaigning for an Oscar nom. He really deserves it, it’s way overdue!
Not even that, and I havent seen all of his films, but this one felt extra special for him I think. He wasn't just playing a character IN a movie, he IS the movie. He's in every single frame from start to finish and I've seen this twice and I can't stop thinking about it. It really may have been one of my favorite acting performances. I don't watch MCU shit, I can't, i love film too much to be subjected to that shit I dont care how much money they make. THIS movie, this FILM...should be the benchmark for everything that comes after it.
@@notori0uszig I put it up there with some of Kubricks´s best work, Taxi Driver, and so on. Is a masterpiece.
Joker is masterpiece, Joaquin did a phenomenal performance. thank you Todd Phillips for this gem.
I'm going to watch the movie for the third time this weekend 😂 I'm obsessed with it. It's all I think about.. people think I'm losing it lol
Yasmin Khasrawy go out and get some sunshine ☀️ take your mind off it
@@jillianryan1890 I'm becoming the movie 😂😂
Lol. Same. This is more than a movie. Every person I suggested it to has loved it.
Yasmin Khasrawy same! I have watched it 4 times already. I even celebrated my birthday by watching this movie again. I can’t stop thinking about it I just feel really connected to Arthur
Me too! Jb x
Best film I've seen in years!
Why Sad ? He is right
No doubt. Indeed
Bill how is that sad it’s true you haven’t either
Bill you’re literally commenting on everything with something negative lol. Go stick to your Marvel movies and let the adults discuss actual cinema.
Fact
This film is so addictive. Four times in less than ten days and I won't stop. Arkham, I'm coming!
For me it was the opposite. This film hit me so damn hard it made me unable to rewatch it anytime soon. I'll need at least a week to cool off.
@@lookcore I can relate, believe me. It's just that when I am hit by something I have to absorb it, to make it totally mine. There are films that I literally know by heart and this will definitely be one of them. Saw it two times more in the meantime...
This is seriously one of the best movies I’ve ever watched... like I watched it weeks ago and I can’t stop thinking about it. Amazing. Really recommend it to anyone who hasn’t seen it
blown away by this intimate and in-depth character study. i didn’t know whether to love or hate him, i was almost happy for him when he finally turned the tables on everyone that had abused him. watching the birth of this villain was both harrowing and exciting. kudos to todd phillips and joaquin phoenix and the rest of the crew for a masterpiece!
Hands down this became one of my favorite films of all time. I put off watching it for a year thinking it to be just another cut and paste flop. Then one rainy, afternoon Mr. Phoenix became my favorite actor lol
Love that Joaquin’s finally getting the recognition he deserves. He’s always delivered solid, impressive performances. Give him that Oscar already! Plus he’s hot af too 😍😍😍
John Smith how about no 😉
YES. Agreed. 😍
Relax hot as fuck lol how can you say that to a man probably 45yo when you look max 18yo
He matured well. He had such a punchable face back in the Gladiator days..
Bethany Howe single?
Phoenix is the best joker 🃏,, I’m sorry, but it’s true ..
To me, Ledger and Phoenix both portrayed the Joker well, though differently. Many have theorized that a good origin story for Ledger would be that he was a war veteran, given the fact that his Joker was a tactician, a planner, very good at reading people and was motivated to manipulate the masses. Joaquin's Joker didn't reveal him to have an aptitude for chemistry, like Hamill's Joker or Nicholson's Joker. He wasn't trying to start a movement, and his aim was not to manipulate the masses. He was also not a sadist, which was revealed in him giving mercy to the short guy in the murder scene with a former fellow employee. Joaquin's Joker specifically goes after people for revenge, towards people that have personally done him wrong. Joaquin Joker (or JJ) acts more in the moment, with his emotions and feelings, not really grasping the world with clarity, and understanding how to get inside people's head ... this is where his Joker is different from Ledger's Joker.
Ledger's Joker when accused of being insane or crazy, said that he wasn't... while Joaquin's Joker acknowledged his mental illness more than once. Ledger's Joker was a planner, an intentional terrorist, not an accidental one. The people didn't rally behind him as much as they knew that they were his targets. Ledger's Joker really wouldn't be seen as the Clown Prince of Gotham, but to me Joaquin's Joker would be, as he appears to be embraced as one of their own. For all we know, Ledger Joker could be an outsider. Both characters work as the Joker, but they are different people with different motivations, as it appears to me. Batman putting Joaquin's Joker in Arkham makes more sense than putting Ledger's Joker in Arkham. Joaquin's Joker does invoke sympathy and some understanding... as he is an abused person with brain damage, disorders...etc... the relationship with a Harley Quinn character also makes more sense with Joaquin's Joker... as he would desire a relationship, but not be in healthy in one -- Ledger is a lone wolf, and having a female tag-along would seem to cramp his style. Joaquin's Joker would be easy for a Harley Quinn therapist to feel sympathy for, and desire to coddle. Ultimately both Joker's have their strengths.
Both are great, cant really compare, only for the fact joker in its full form happens only for the last 20 min of the movie , it was more an Aurther fleck story hence Orgin story
I say Phoenix is just abit more better
The Finish Line But Ledgers Joker takes place much later. Joker can evolve and I think it’s a great prequel to what eventually becomes ledgers joker.
Agreed
Literally every time i hear Joaquin talk or just see his eyes, i feel discomforted. Thats how real feeling his performance. This movie is definitely the best of this decade.
I’m glad joker didn’t kill the midget friend, omg I was horrified if he did but at the end the midget was the only nice one to joker 🃏
I’m glad I saw the movie before reading this comment.
That scene was crazy. But when the midget couldn't open the door, I almost died🤣
V bre yeah it was hilarious and scary at the same time 😂😭
John permeswar I agree with you, but for a second there I thought he was gonna kill him just because 🥺
And here you are calling him a midget
This movie was perfection. They are both tapped into their inner genius, such a gift!
Protect Joaquin Phoenix at all costs!
💯👏👏👏
You can easily see how a Harley Quinn character would desire to protect him and even project a better image on him, than what he actually is. I think he's a good Joker for Harley Quinn. It's an unhealthy co-dependent relationship though.
Joaquin's real life gf Rooney Mara could be Harley Quinn. She's not blonde but she's a great actress and could play that sort of character
By all means captain....
This is one of the greatest films I have ever seen. Phoenix's performance is the absolute best I've ever seen, period.
I can't believe that the director of the absolutely appalling hangover movies was capable enough of making a masterpiece like Joker. Hats off to you Todd. And Phoenix deserves an Oscar for his performance
Can we all take a moment and just see how modest Joaquin is, giving special thanks and naming part of the crew. Not for one second did he take all the credit. Such a human quality in this ego trip industry.
If this movie doesn’t get some award I’ll be mad for the people who worked on this movie... it deserves appreciation and applause
I feel you. But truth is this masterpiece has already done his job: to stir the soul of people around the world including mine. Is amazing how it connects with the harsh reality we are living in: that our world is full of unjustice and uglyness and apathy.
I dont care if he doesn't get that Oscar. We all can see how much we've appreciated this gem. Only by reading the comments. We already gave him the Oscar!
If joker doesn't sweep the Oscar's we will riot
Yup
SHELL SHOCKINGLY REIVITING, FILM OF THE DECADE 10/10
I agree
I don't think this movies significance is really going to be felt in its entirety for a few years. This is my favorite film of the year, and one of my favorite films period. But it's TRUE significance is yet to be felt in my opinion. And that's crazy to say because of it's impact today. But I truly believe that... MASTERPIECE!!
Is very special as it connects with the UNJUSTICE reality of our world.
My most emotional scene that I really felt so sorry for Arthur is on the theatre where he goes to find his "father" (supposed to be) while his shouting at him in total dispear: "I don't want anything from you. Maybe a little bit of warmth, maybe a hug, Dad [...] It's me, Dad!" and then this neurotic laughter comes up and he punch him so hard on his face that his nose starts bleeding and cries over the sink. My heart broke into a thousand million pieces. He was like a little child asking for love, even the expressions of his face were so innocent. I felt his lonliness, I was thinking "poor, little baby..." and wanted to hug him so badly. Joaquin made me like this with his great performance!
" If it were me dying on sidewalk you'd walk right over me "
-Arthur aka Joker
I'm so fucking happy I got to live in an era where.. while cinema has become Stale, I got to see two amazing depictions of the Joker from Joaquin and heath.
I LOVE how he specifically names the people (or as he refers to them, artists) on the set that worked to help him achieve what we saw on the big screen.
I've heard this film has a lot of parallels with Taxi Driver. I think Todd even asked Scorsese for advice when making the movie so I'm fascinated to see an homage to Taxi Driver in the format of a Joker movie! And having Robert De Niro play a part in this movie just really brings the whole thing full circle. Interesting...
Taxi driver and certainly king of comedy
Theres 3 scenes very similar to taxi driver
Scorsese was attached as producer at the begining of the project but had to drop down due to a schedule issue
Todd + Joaquin = Ultimate Dynamic Duo! 🔥🔥🔥
as someone who feels isolated, like a pariah, like you don't exist - this movie is really uplifting.
Sitranine You will have your Joker dance scene in life and it will be just wonderful.
this movie was perfect to me. it’s rare that i say a film is perfect. holy crap i loved it so much.
I feel like Joaquin Phoenix is a tortured soul. He speaks like he's trying to hide that he's in pain. I can't explain it.
His brother died right in front of him too..that’s rough :/
I love you, Joaquin.
Just remember how we almost never would have had this film if Joaquin really did retire in 2008
This movie is something else man. Just fantastic. Probably the greatest character exploration in any comicbook movie.
In ANY film period, to be quite honest.
I truly believe that the eyes are the window to the soul and Joaquin's eyes are like this perfect storm of beauty and dangerousness
OMG! Perfect description! Can I steal this phrase from you?
@@marianariva1664 Of course!
This movie is amazing, haunting, about an innocent destroyed and finally breaks. Every aspect of this movie was done exceptionally WELL! Very hard to put into words. Joaquin has always been an incredible artist, very much underrated in my opinion, but Joker cannot be denied as exceptionally crafted and the acting without doubt, SUPERB.
If this movie is ignored because of the labeling it as political by the Academy or any of the award shows would be an utter disgrace. Joaquin especially deserves accolades for this masterpiece, and all the cast and crew deserves all they are due. 10/10! A MUST SEE a couple times!
Not giving joaquin an oscar is like not giving michael jackson a grammy.
You'd have blood on the dance floor with both guys

Agree.
At least Joaquin doesn't sleep with little white boys....
The Indie Diary Haters gonna hate.
The Indie Diary Gary glitter did
Someone said, "You know a movie has impacted you when 5 days after you're still thinking about it."
It's made me realize I've got to treat everyone better.
Fabulous dual interview. But I have to say: Joker as a movie is phenomenal. Freaking phenomenal. I've seen almost every performance of live actors (and Mark Hamill's voice talent ofc.) portraying the Joker, but Joaquin Phoenix really took him out of being a comic book character and into the realm of being a real, believable person. You feel the suffering, the negligence, the pain and you understand why he does what he does. A dark mirror for society and especially the media, but WOW, best film I've seen in decades. A grand round of applause for the entire cast, crew and the rest.
The single greatest character movie ever released. Unmitigated genius.
I haven't seen such a brilliant movie in YEARS!
This is the kind of interview you want to see from such talented artists talk about actual art.
Paparazzi: Do the Joker laugh for us!
Joaquin: You wouldn’t get it
Just imagine what Phoenix had to put his mind through. He LIVED that character. And the fact that he can carry on as usual after is mind blowing.
This film is not a film, is not a masterpiece, it's a Life experience
When Joaquin spoke I actually got chills... Just brought me back to that last scene of Joker o.o
Can't get the movie out of my head. I have been a fan of Joaquin for many many years so I was really looking foward to this but wow, Joker was more than I expected.
Seen it for the 5th time. Still cant get enough.
Phoenix is an effing genius! Oscar!!!!
Joker will be talked about in a 1000 years time.Joker directed by Todd Philips and starring Joaquin Phoenix is THE movie.When I saw it ,I did not ever believe such a beautiful work of cinematic art could ever exist.I was wrong.Joker proved me wrong.Joker is THE Masterpiece.
I have been a huuuuuge Joaquin Phoenix fan since I was a little boy. I've always felt sad that he has never gained the recognition I always felt he deserved. Due to JOKER's release, being able to witness everyone praise Joaquin's acting and talent truly warms my heart. I loved the film and Joaquin's performance was just another reminder to me why this man is my most favourite actor. I am praying and hoping he wins an Oscar for this. Such a kind and talented man and much deserved of all the praise he is receiving. Good luck Joaquin!
Saw the movie. Honestly, best movie in decades. I can’t remember a movie where it caused me actual emotion. Maybe when I was young and saw rocky for the first time and felt inspired, or jaws made me scared of the ocean. But that’s about it.
the part where u talk about jaws is hilarious
Get out more than
@@trashcan7140 he was talking about movies causing emotions, not life.. one thing I despise is messages like this, it's just a subtle way of saying 'my life is better than yours'. of course, some want to help others when they say this, but not in this case
I hope that after watching Joker, people will commit themselves to be kinder to one another.
I love this comment, genuinely. It was nice to find it amongst all of the "I found the joker became more relatable towards the end" and all the boring political comments.
When two geniuses come together and make a movie=MASTERPIECE
I hope they work together again someday. This movie was bone chilling yet in some ways relatable (which was also frightening!). I can't remember the last time I was so engrossed in a film. Maybe Silence of the Lambs. I can't recall but anyway this movie is something that people will be studying for years to come.
Dana watch the Hannibal series then...it's as immersive
@@ninawildr4207 I'll give it a go - thanks!
I wished if I could meet with Arthur Fleck, the character. I would have given him a big hug and supported him for as much as I can.
Exactly. No movie made me feel so so attached to a character like this. I honestly felt extremely bad for him during his first comedy show. It was brutal. I was flinching at how sad it was. No movie has ever made me feel like this.
