Happy to see you enjoy this masterpiece. It doesn't matter that you started with this, the important part is that you HAVE seen it. Imho it's the best iteration of the Joker since it depicts a human, non over-the-rop version of an ambiguous villain. How one came to be is more interesting than the acts of violence that spawns from entertainment purposes. Though, there is nothing wrong with mindless action-hero stuff. Yet we see too few of these Jokers in movies and unfortunately that is the reason that creates a disconnect: we can't reach the layers of the character and form an understanding and appreciation for their existence. This is double true in real life and.. is a reason why this world is not as good as it can be.
I *love* this sad, dark movie. I look forward to seeing the sequel in spite of the negativity. This film earned Todd Philips and Joaqin Phoenix the benefit of my doubt.
This is an ALTERNATE Batman universe. Keep that in mind. Probably not the best to start with. It's an interesting re-write of Joker's origin but it is NOT Joker's origin.
I knew the name Bruce Wayne. I simply wasn't invested in the story/world as it pertains to Batman. I was invested in watching this movie because of the cinematography and because I knew it was an interesting look at mental health.
@@LippsReacts Batman: The Animated Series got me into DC that show is a masterpiece. Kevin Conroy will always be leagues above any of the live action versions.
No it's not. It literally tears aurther down. Wasted lady gaga and it's ultimately ruined by excessive musicals numbers that are either to in the nose or out of touch with the scene @rapid9534
@rapid9534 but then again. The first movie led up to the birth of Joker, which was the whole point. Why just destroy that in the sequel and go back to arthur?
This movie is a fantastic, non-canonical origin story for the Joker. Many books, comics, movies, games, and shows have tackled the Joker's origin (all of them slightly different). The most commonly held view is that no one knows what his true origin is (not even the Joker himself). Sometimes he makes up stories about how he got to where he is, but even he isn't sure it's the truth (sometimes he even knows it's a lie). I love that they keep him mysterious and, to me, this movie is just another story told by an unreliable narrator.
This film is such an unique introduction to the world of Gotham for someone who hasn't watched any Batman media prior to this. I Personally wouldn’t recommend viewing Joker (2019) as a canonical take on the characters, as it feels very much like its own thing. The film presents a more 'grounded' reality, both in its depiction of Gotham and in characters like Arthur Fleck, who is an original creation for the movie. While it’s a compelling film about a man struggling with mental health, with a Gotham twist, it doesn’t really serve as a true 'Joker' film. At least, not until the end. Arthur Fleck essentially represents a narrative that the Joker from the comics might create as a fake origin story for himself. In the film, Thomas Wayne is portrayed in a fairly tasteless way, coming across as an outright jerk compared to his comic counterpart. In the comics, and in most renditions, Thomas is compassionate, with a strong moral compass. He’s often depicted as a respected doctor and philanthropist, a figure of integrity. The film also flips a major dynamic from the comics. Traditionally, the Joker is born from Batman’s actions, emerging during Bruce’s first years as the Dark Knight. However, in the film, it’s the opposite. The actions of the Joker indirectly lead to the death of the Waynes, setting the stage for the eventual rise of Batman about 15 years later. Assuming this Bruce becomes Batman around age 25, as in the comics, the film changes this iconic origin in a significant way. Overall, this film takes a very different approach to the character and shouldn't be used as a reliable reference for future Batman-related projects. Hopefully, you enjoy the Nolan Trilogy. Like Joker, it's also a very 'grounded' take on the world of Batman, meaning there are no supernatural elements, metahumans, or anything beyond our own reality. Batman Begins (2005) is my personal favourite because it feels the most like a comic-book Batman film. Gotham looks great, and the overall aesthetic is my favourite in the trilogy. However, after Begins, Gotham starts to feel more like a typical American city, losing a lot of its personality. Additionally, certain characters are stripped of their more comic-book origins to fit into this grounded world. Ra's Al Ghul and Bane being two examples. The Batman (2022) did an amazing job at being grounded but maintaining a great Gothic Gotham City that's up there with Batman '89 and Batman Returns for the best live action Gotham City. I could also see Matt Reeve introducing more fantastical elements as well, villains such as Clayface to contrast the grounded stories told so far and take both Batman and Gotham by surprise. Batman '89 along with Returns are the most fantastical Batman films, Very cool art direction and my personal favourite Gotham put to screen. I feel like James Gunn's up in coming DC Universe is going to fully embrace the fantastical elements of the comics as well. But I hope you have a blast with your Batman adventures.
@@LittleGalaxyBoy I forgave Thomas Wayne in this movie. 100%. If some creep puked that crap with my little son, they’d quickly find me a jerk, too. Would have been nice if they showed more of him, so we could see him normally. But the focus had to stay on Fleck.
@@robbob5302 I totally respect that part, but everything else like him calling the people of Gotham clowns and his overall attitude throughout the film-makes him come off as not a great person. That said, we also have to remember we’re seeing the story through Arthur’s perspective. Maybe that's simply how Arthur see's Thomas Wayne.
@@LittleGalaxyBoy I see what you’ve saying. I could get political here, and say we are seeing him through the media’s perspective as well. But that feels apologist-ic.
"The worst part about having a mental illness is that people expect you to behave as if you dont." So many comments here missed the point of the movie. This isn't the Joker "The Clown Prince of Crime." This is Arthur, a man struggling with mental/emotional issues in a toxic society that fosters those issues. So few people see Arthur because they want to see comic book Joker. They want a guy in clown paint getting punched by a guy in a bat mask. This movie is inspired by Taxi Driver and King of Comedy. A few comic book names are used as references because it would draw in a broader audience that otherwise wouldn't have seen it but that's all the majority end up seeing. Even with the prior film inspirations so much of this is based on real issues. The lack of mental health support, fractured toxic society, fractured toxic homes, children being tied to radiators and abused was way more common than people want to look back on, Arthur's compulsive laughter is a real condition, a person shooting someone on live entertainment TV or shooting themselves because of mental illness. But almost everyone shifts their focus to "that little boy was Bruce Wayne..."
And of course, everyone was expecting The Joker in the sequel, but they never got The Joker in that movie either, and that’s what ticked so many people off.
I just want to say that this is the best Joker movie ever And not every person can understand this movie I literally cried when I saw this movie for the first time 😢
Joker 2 is great, dont listen to what others say, it's musical, that's why he sings at the end. Joker and GAGA are crazy so it makes sense why they singing but it's in their heads. 9/10 on joker 2
Not sure this is the best film to start your journey into the Batman universe, but as long as you don't expect too much of a through-line from this to the other films, it shouldn't be too confusing. That said, this is - to use your word - a phenomenal standalone film in its own right.
yeah, i didn't explain that well enough cause this is like half the comments. But this was a movie I've had on my list to watch from before I even started doing reactions! I thought it'd be fun to do a month of batman world but even if I didn't go down the route of watching the batman trilogy and The Batman I was always going to watch Joker!! I was very interested in it as the film that it is not because I expected it to be a direct link to the batman trilogy.
They've done a spin off show to Robert pattinson's Batman film called The Penguin. Its about Colin Farrell's Penguin character from The Batman and what he gets up to after that film. Its still airing on HBO Max right now but its so damn good. If you don't already have it on your must watch list it should be.
It is 100% on my must watch list!! I have been holding off as i'm considering a reaction to it but i deff want to watch it. Did already record my reaction to The Batman so i might just take the leap to continue the batman journey!
@@LippsReacts i say do it as a reaction! That way if you don't end up posting the rest of the batman movie reactions on youtube you'll still have batman related content to post on youtube. I am glad to see you so excited for batman though!
Honestly, this isn’t a bad start to the Batman universe. When I introduced my friend to the Batman world, I first showed her the Tim Burton Batman films and then showed her this film. I do hope you get to react to those movies as well, because they’re really good. And also, you should also check out the Batman TV show from the 60s, which also has movie attached to it. It’s a more campy take on it, but it’s a lot of fun and it was the first Batman property to get people eyes on Batman. So, I’m excited for your journey through those films and glad you enjoyed this film!
I'd bet the animated series from the 90s is the batman content I watched as a kid. I don't remember it vividly by any means but I do remember it being a part of my childhood
This is true. Especially the 90's animated show. It stays closest to the core lore of Batman and his world. It doesn't talk down to or oversimplify things for it's audience. It's legitimately timeless.
I've already watched athe batman trilogy and The Batman. I do a full length movie reaction a week for patreon and can't edit a movie reaction a week for youtube so i'm always ahead. I post what i'm going to react to for the month in the community section for feedback and insight like this.
0:56 Don’t get your hopes up about seeing Batman and Robin together anytime soon! :( Modern Batman projects have really shied away from including Robin alongside Batman. The last time we saw Robin in a Batman film was Batman & Robin back in 1997 over 26 years ago! though he does play a significant role in animation, like Batman: The Animated Series and in films like Batman: Under the Red Hood, it’s a real shame that a whole generation hasn’t been introduced to Robin if they've only watched the live-action movies. And honestly, I don’t count John "Robin" Blake from The Dark Knight Rises as a true representation of Robin. It felt more like a "Hey, look, we mentioned Robin!" moment instead of actually giving us the character. Just having your legal name be Robin doesn’t really count.
It was fun to get that lil robin reveal in dark knight rises but it would have been more fun to get a true duo! Maybe the future holds something good for us who knows!
@@LippsReacts From what I’ve heard, James Gunn’s DCU (DC Universe) will have a Batman who’s already in his prime, active for a good number of years and already has the Bat Family formed. Since Superman: Legacy (2025) is kicking off the new DCU, it probably means we won’t see this new Batman, along with Robin, until later in the decade. But it would be cool if The Batman 2 (whenever it comes out) introduces a Robin, especially since it would be a great contrast to Robert Pattinson’s moody take on the character. Pattinson’s Batman will still continue on as its' own Elseworlds universe so that's not going anywhere soon.
oooo yes I would love a contrast to Pattinsons Batman. I enjoyed him but I LOVED Bales Batman. SO excited to share these with y'all so we can discuss the batmans and all that the movies have. It's been one of my favorite movie series I've watched this year
I remember watching this movie for my 1st out of 3 times in the cinema, when a family of mom, dad, older sister and younger brother sat on the row in front of me. In the first scene, where Arthur laughs out of pain and despair, the young boy (around 10 years old) whispered to his mom "I don´t think, that I wanna watch this movie". The family sat still for another 5-10 minutes and then left with a sad boy. This movie is not a superhero/supervillain movie. It´s a social study of men at the very rock bottom of society, who suffers in silence and experiences nothing but alienation from the world around them. I am so happy, that Hollywood had the courage to make this movie, because I think, it´s the most relevant and important movie of the last 20 years for the forgotten but suffering men of our Western World.
I really liked this movie for its very unique way Joaquin Phoenix displayed the character. I heard the second one is a disaster, although I didn't see it yet for myself. Keep always in mind to build your own picture before judging and before getting adulterated by others opinions. Just expect nothing and you won't get disappointed.
This was a different n uniquely dark portrayal of the Joker. Heath Ledger's Joker had been a bit dark but that was nothing compared to this one. It works as a separate movie, not as a part of Batman movie because Bruce was a kid n the Joker was grown up already. Christopher Nolan's trilogy of Batman is iconic. The sequel to this movie is completely different. It's more of a musical than anything else so there's not much of a continuation on the plot other than Joker meeting HQ. Your reaction to this movie was pretty interesting btw
it depends! I may bite the bullet and see it in theatres since the ratings are so low. Will also depend on the timing of it's release because I am about to go to London for 4 months and idk if it will release on streaming world wide. I did see it was coming to vudu soon.

@@LippsReactsare you going to do a reaction video when it hits streaming?
it depends! I may bite the bullet and see it in theatres since the ratings are so low. Will also depend on the timing of it's release because I am about to go to London for 4 months and idk if it will release on streaming world wide. I did see it was coming to vudu soon.
@@LippsReacts would be great to see your reaction, but do whatever you wish!
This movie was bootleg rip off
