I mean, not real hard when it's already a more competent written, designed character and has a whole movie to expand on it. Meanwhile Jared Leto was given David Ayer' fantasy gangster world and was just used as an accessory for Harley for 7min of runtime. I'm glad we have Joaquin for sure. But he's beating Ayers' Joker. Watch Requiem for a Dream and Dallas Buyers Club, Jared was doing the same shit brilliantly. This is a character piece that wouldve benefited him too. Also the method acting bs was way exaggerated and David Ayer himself said a lot of what the media reported was fake and he and the cast talked about how he was really good to work with so these guys are being quite ridiculous. Joaquin is also a method actor btw. Like jeez chill out a bit. Anyway, this movie is looking brilliant I can't wait.
Thank you Ace Jared Leto is a great actor but WB/DC/Ayers didn't give him that on screen time to flex his acting muscles. Plus you had fans who didn't want to look pass his tattooed look to see there was something to his Joker. The time he was on screen that look in his eyes can scare you.
Lol, so better a ruler on the road to hell than a servant in . . . purgatory? Nice pick up on the symbolism. Was still reeling from the classic costume appearance.
Funny thing is that, IIRC, it was Kevin Feige who said that DC would do better focusing on making good standalone films rather than try to just mash everything together as quickly as possible.
It has more a "Taxi Driver" vibe than anything else. It looks to have another nod to "The King of Comedy" as well with the cameo by Robert De Niro as the talk show host. I'm still thinking Joker's final make-up pays a bit of homage to the TV show version.
It also plays with the design and colors used by John Wayne Gacy (serial killer) when he dressed as Pogo the clown. Which btw is the name on the wall of the comedy club in this trailer. This take I hope changes the entire DC Batman approach.
I felt really uneasy watching this trailer, in a good way (if that's even possible). It really shocked me and I've gone from not being interested in this to totally intrigued. Colour me interested.
‘Falling Down’, a movie directed by Joel Schumacher. Wait, Joel Schumacher? The guy who directed ‘Batman and Robin’? He’s somehow an inspiration for a Batman related movie? Never expected that...
Long life to Joaquín Phoenix, he is great (I saw him for the first time in Gladiator). If he wins the Oscar it will be beautiful, because Joaquín was friend of Heath Ledger... And because will be a tribute to his brother River, who died en 1993, and he was a great actor too. Great reaction friends, the man in the right side of the video is very pretty, pretty smile. Peace and love from Chile :)
I always said that the reason Batman is awesome its in big part because he has the BEST rogue's gallery of any comic book character ever and those great villains make for great stories.
Arthur Fleck is the name of the joker in The Killing Joke, a comic book from 1998 if I remember well, so it's a coincidence. But a nice one nonetheless, nice observation!
8:00 In the Dark Knight, Ledger's Joker stood out more than Batman because of Bale , not the character itself. Bale just wasn't in the same level of acting as Ledger.
I partly agree. But I'd say it's more of the way he was written for th3 film. I mean, can you imagine how amazing joker would be if Nicholson was given full roam for the 80s role?
Your expressions during the trailer :) Joaquin Phoenix is amazing actor. The trailer is really good, chills and goosebumps while and after watching it :)
Loved your reaction right after the trailer! I'm really sold by this trailer and really surprised how it's not any ordinary comic book movie and looks nothing like it, it's more like a character study. Really sold by Joaquin Phoenix's performance. Heath Ledger will still no doubt be the best but Phoenix seems like he will be close to it or equally good! Really interested about the other cast members too. The girl smiling at Joaquin in the donut store is Zazie Beetz from Deadpool. The talk show host is Robert DeNiro. And also cool to know the guy on TV about the guy hiding behind the mask is playing Thomas Wayne. And the kid behind the gate is playing Bruce Wayne.
Lets be honest....Joker is a BAD PERSON. I am tired of seeing it being downplayed. I am great there is a reasoning behind it all but more then anything...I WANT THIS MOVIE TO GO AS DARK AS POSSIBLE. Tired of what one of they most disgusting psychopaths is being watered down...NO MORE DAMMIT. Understand him...BUT UNDERSTAND HE IS VILE AND DOES VILE THINGS AND SHOW IT. Just my take. I heard it is R but more importantly I heard it is a HARD R. PERFECT :) The Joker makeup is spot on imo for the decade it is supposed to take place. The makeup isn't the important part anyway, its the way the character is portrayed wearing it.
Giving someone a legitimate motivation is not "watering" them down. There are plenty of supervillains that are not human for you to have your fun with. The Joker has always been portrayed as a product of society, JUST LIKE BATMAN. So get out of here with that garbage.
Finally someone made a movie of the joker alone man this movie is about his roughness life that joker gets bully that's what I was waiting for, a movie that explain everything to know about the joker why he was so crazy how did he become crazy the joker have many time lines so this one is one of them and finally we have one not the aggressive batman that bullies the joker all the time man I was waiting for this for all my life I know there's a little Bruce Wayne in the movie but it's the joker on his beginnings.
I felt this film was trying to show that the joker isn't a "cool" character. The Leto Joker wanted to make Joker cool and sexy but that's not him. Joker is tragic, deranged, damaged, and full of hatred. Much of the public almost celebrates mental illness but this movie wipes all that off the table and points to what it truly is and I don't think a lot of people are going to be comfortable watching how much the every day person can contribute to making a Joker every day.
Now I understand how one guy, with no super power, no monstrous intelligence, no money, no authority, but madness alone can stand up as the best villain in DC universe. Joker was made by society. You cant kill society, another Joker will just rise up.
Movie is by far best of the year .. Oscar worthy 💯!! Based on when Bruce Wayne was a kid ... go watch it it’s amazing!!! Best movie for the longest time!
5:21 WAIT WAIT I KNEW THIS MOVIE TOOK PLACE IN NEW YORK BUT NOT NEAR THE HEGHTS.......... AND YOU GUYS LIVE IN THE HEIGHTS ?!?!?!?!?! BRO I LIVE IN THE HEIGHTS TOO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The little kid he "makes" smile is Bruce Wayne so hopefully this can be the first of many in a new timeline/franchise. It's done right by building the character up. I want anticipation in movies like Jaws, ET the dark knight building to Bruce Wayne becoming Batman.
I love the elsewhere angle! Works with the comics I'm sure it'll be okay for the movies. Especially with lower budgeted, character driven movies like this.
Imo I actually like Leto’s portrayal of the Joker for what he had and it’s not fair to compare it to ones that had/have a whole movie, that being said I’m also a big fan of what I’m seeing here I got chills and can’t wait to watch this.
I almost clicked away with the beginning cynicism of the video, but I had to stay for the reaction. I knew you'd be turned around and had to see the expressions. It was rewarding to see the turnaround that I expected. :p Every single time I see this trailer, I get chills. If you let it be its own movie in its own kindaverse, I think it'll blow everyone away.
In 1981, a failed stand-up comedian turns to a life of crime and chaos in Gotham City, slowly rising up to become a frightening legend. Inspired by Martin Scorsese writings and films, remember its a STAND ALONE movie of just joker only Movie reminds me of ONE WHO FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST & TAXI DRIVER
It's a crime that you've never seen Falling Down. It's one of the best movies ever from a time when action movies ruled the world. Michael Douglas is brilliant (like always).
@@pReviewd There is no question that you'd rather turn out right about something than wrong. That type of intelligence is an advantage in life. So keep nailing.
Many modern iterations of Joker in other media have kind of adopted this concept that he was a really good guy before the world finally broke him. And actually this origin makes him eventually a way better villain. I think this may be the DC answer to Logan. This may be an R-rated character piece. Also, this takes place in 1981. The little boy is Bruce Wayne and the guy on the television is Thomas Wayne. I think Joker’s mother dies and that sends him over the edge. I also think we see Bruce’s parents killed in this movie. I don’t know if Joker does it or not. But I think that shot of Joker making him smile is after his parents are dead. This movie looks amazingly good. This could be better than Ledger’s Joker. That’s about the highest praise I can give.
Anyone who says they don't know how a Joker movie can exist without Batman has no imagination....you could do character study movies for most of Batman a villains ...and the DC world's strategy isn't hard to understand....it's simply doing solo movies in there own world's....
Lol Adam really needs to watch Falling Down again. It's more like a psychotic boomer guy with marriage problems goes on an angry white guy rampage for 2 hrs.
i think the scene where Robert De Niro invites Joker on to his what im guessing is a late night talk show or something i think we might see the infamous audience mass murder from Dark Knight Returns...im hoping at least lol
Instant dislike for anyone associated with not knowing the awesomeness that is *Falling **_fucking_** Down!* "I don't think she likes the special sauce, Rick"
Hey guys! We love your content. Think its funny how this movie turned out. Its so good but it didnt hit you it was good until 30 minutes after watching it and heading home
It is simple what the wanna draw you in, mentally. As the Buddha is within you, Christ Jesus is within you, eternal God is within you, JOKER IS WITHIN YOU and so everything is within you till the time you accept it and let it go. Things happen in our life and basically be more aware of those daily rut we get into and how repeat themselves (it is at the most core of your life and what you are, for you are being the imagination of your own creative powers, these are thoughts words deeds of yours and mostly the feelings, how you intrepret, construe, perceive, assume life itself. Mental and physical worlds own & exist to That which are Conscious of those. Conscious is aware of Conscious_ness. It is the Isness of Conscious aware something being becoming till the pendulum of time wrecked you down and become nothing_ness as you change. You are a state a nation a world of trillion cells living under the laws of the same world you live in and half of the same govern Will. Because your heart beaten unwillingly of your conscious Will you are pointing out yourself to be but cannot fix a standard point where it is by virtue that you belongs to nothing specific. You are the process and along with world move together. The problem is when you perceive yourself to be between two worlds and thus duality is of the bigger grandeur problem of confliction of main issues we have to deal with daily. I said all this because with this trailer and because this Joker seems to get you goosebumps because they target to produce something which was someone (a boy to bring happiness in the world according to his mom's standards but become no one specific individual (after his life tragedy) but holds one very sociable and individual characteristic of that Conscious persona you put on every day (I mean of that ''I am blah blah blah" viz EGO. We all are the Ego and with that Joker you will see clearly pristinely unvaguely the personification of what we eagerly anticipate to watch on our screens. _JOKER_ . this is also why we do not see at the titles ''The Joker'' but JOKER. All the scenario and life being done around JOKER. This movie if it is gonna be a special one and fancy in a good way MUST JOKER BE and we remain to see the plot and the whole conspiracy inside the brain of Arthur before became Joker. It is Joker and not the Joker because he is not Joker merely himself, you are Joker also. I wonder how they will point to it. So who create the plot must bring you into the psych mind of the same person who have been through similar things happen to you. (unfold the Joker inside you.) Maybe this Joker ain't simply an egoistic junkie addicted to criminal activities and connive odd devious plot, a tricky one mad man with sharp intelligent of what he is doing. This Joker must be not a left brainer plainly but the total power of a perfect mindset looking and seeking into life as life is himself. So much confident must be this Joker, therefore I am not curious of Joaquin Phoenix's stature pose and voice tone/tint; He will show us FROM ...(woe is me) TO ...(**** you all).
One thing, while I enjoyed the Nolan Trilogy, let's 100% real here, his Batman wasn't a good Batman. I think Batman Begins had the best Batman and is why that's my favorite of the 3 movies, but none of the movies have come close to what the Batman is. Firstly none of the movies feature one of his greatest traits, being The World's Greatest Detective. The most we've ever gotten is in the original Tim Burton film and Batman gives Vicki Vale that information about the mixture of chemicals the Joker is using to make people smile. And one of the things the Nolan Trilogy didn't have is the fact that Bruce would much rather be Batman than Bruce, it's his mission, he's sole purpose for existing, and he sacrifices Bruce Wayne in order to keep going as Batman. The only really good Batmans we've seen on a screen are the Animated versions and the Arkham games. None of the movie's have had great Batmans.
I think I like this Joker more than even Ledger's scratchy voice version. I empathize with Joaquin's Joker more than Heath's, because a completely mental person is more likely to be quiet than one that keeps on talking. But Heath's has become the new "baseline" for all Joker's now, in the same way all TV Jokers will always be compared to the Classic TV Joker portrayed by Cesar Romero.
This movie isn’t out yet and Jared Leto has already been far outdone. Outshined. Out-Jokered.
Cherie Alexander FACTS 💯
I mean, not real hard when it's already a more competent written, designed character and has a whole movie to expand on it. Meanwhile Jared Leto was given David Ayer' fantasy gangster world and was just used as an accessory for Harley for 7min of runtime. I'm glad we have Joaquin for sure. But he's beating Ayers' Joker. Watch Requiem for a Dream and Dallas Buyers Club, Jared was doing the same shit brilliantly. This is a character piece that wouldve benefited him too. Also the method acting bs was way exaggerated and David Ayer himself said a lot of what the media reported was fake and he and the cast talked about how he was really good to work with so these guys are being quite ridiculous. Joaquin is also a method actor btw. Like jeez chill out a bit. Anyway, this movie is looking brilliant I can't wait.
Ace well yeah, that’s overall what I was getting at. I was just kinda throwing a little joke out there. But yes, this movie does look incredible.
Thank you Ace Jared Leto is a great actor but WB/DC/Ayers didn't give him that on screen time to flex his acting muscles. Plus you had fans who didn't want to look pass his tattooed look to see there was something to his Joker. The time he was on screen that look in his eyes can scare you.
You're really gonna blame Jared Leto for getting so much joker footage cut out of the movie
Oscar Alert ! Oscar Alert ! 🚨
I agree with you there!
Don’t bother nomination, just give it to him
Yes I mean come on Martian Scorsese is executive producer I would love to see this be nominated
Obvious Alert! Obvious Alert! (insert cute police-looking alarm light emoji here cause IDGAF)
11!!!
This movie is going to be extremely interesting. That last shot of him, just staring, with that unique makeup, is completely chilling.
Using the light and shadows to make the makeup look like a skull was awesome.
I don't get scared easily, but being stuck there with him and seeing that face before the lights go off, fuck
Victor Bastos if you look in the elevator last shot he actually smirks right before it pans over and says October.
This trailer legitimately SHOCKED me! Glad you guys got on it QUICK!
Everyone get shocked with this, and I love it ¡¡¡
3 out of 5???? I'm wondering which trailers you give 5/5 because this was beautiful.
Agreed. I’ve watched this trailer mayyyybe 10x and each time feels like the first.
@@Edd_LShore i hope you're being sarcastic
Towards the beginning he is seen walking up the stairs sadly but towards the end he is dancing down the stairs as the joker
Lol, so better a ruler on the road to hell than a servant in . . . purgatory? Nice pick up on the symbolism. Was still reeling from the classic costume appearance.
The uphill battle out of hell to sadly dancing into it
Going up is struggle against everything bad happening to him and around him
And going down is descend into madness. While dancing, obviously :D
I love that silence after the trailer had ended
Majerník Tomáš to their faces haha
And they give it 3 out 5 😂
Best part of their reaction!
“It’s not that the system failed me; ...I’m not even IN the system...”
That’s a great way to put it!
YES!!! When he said that, I literally paused the video and said, "Exactly!!!"
yeah what an awesome phrase for the Joker
Guys DC is making one hell of a comeback. Walter Hamada deserves a lot of credit for this turnaround.
Lois Kent it’s an amazing time just wish we would get man of steel 2
Funny thing is that, IIRC, it was Kevin Feige who said that DC would do better focusing on making good standalone films rather than try to just mash everything together as quickly as possible.
This is all Todd Phillips though. It's his script, his cast, his direction etc.
And Scott Silver is the co writer. The guy who did The Fighter and 8 Mile
"Some people just wanna watch the world burn" this movie will explain why...
If it does a good enough job of it, then we'll agree with the mindset.
It has more a "Taxi Driver" vibe than anything else. It looks to have another nod to "The King of Comedy" as well with the cameo by Robert De Niro as the talk show host. I'm still thinking Joker's final make-up pays a bit of homage to the TV show version.
It also plays with the design and colors used by John Wayne Gacy (serial killer) when he dressed as Pogo the clown. Which btw is the name on the wall of the comedy club in this trailer. This take I hope changes the entire DC Batman approach.
Bruce Bromley I’m sure you thought of that all by yourself.
@@jakefromstatefarm8545 what does that even mean? Any lover of film can spot the parallels. I saw "Taxi Driver" in 1982. How about you?
Bruce Bromley you know exactly what I mean.
@@jakefromstatefarm8545 by all means, explain it for the benefit of everyone.
So much better than Jared Leto dressed as a mumble rapper.
I felt really uneasy watching this trailer, in a good way (if that's even possible). It really shocked me and I've gone from not being interested in this to totally intrigued. Colour me interested.
That looks utterly terrifying. Can't effing wait.
Eat your words dude on the right!!lol 3 outta 5 gtfo. It was better then endgames trailer
lol I don't get it. He would've probably loved it if the trailer showed everything like all the other trailers these days
Someone doesn't understand the rating system.
‘Falling Down’, a movie directed by Joel Schumacher. Wait, Joel Schumacher? The guy who directed ‘Batman and Robin’? He’s somehow an inspiration for a Batman related movie? Never expected that...
It looks absolutely brilliant! I can't wait.
*eta* I think It's set in the 1980's. :)
silverspike1 I think it’s 70s.
It's set in 1981
Definitely 5/5
We all have that madness somewhere in our minds, all it takes is one bad day...
I think I heard that line somewhere 😂😂😂
Bad people are born of good people who are hurt
Long life to Joaquín Phoenix, he is great (I saw him for the first time in Gladiator). If he wins the Oscar it will be beautiful, because Joaquín was friend of Heath Ledger... And because will be a tribute to his brother River, who died en 1993, and he was a great actor too. Great reaction friends, the man in the right side of the video is very pretty, pretty smile. Peace and love from Chile :)
I'm from the future and the movie got an oscar
You on the left there, 3/5 for this trailer, are you "JOKING?"
6/5 an extra point for the 30ish time i have watched this. Due to reaction video binging
Jay expression is priceless
I hated walking up those damn stairs as a kid. Hate them even more as an adult. Lol
Joaquin Phoenix ✨🏆✨ oscar 👍😎
I always said that the reason Batman is awesome its in big part because he has the BEST rogue's gallery of any comic book character ever and those great villains make for great stories.
This is like a cross between Taxi Driver and Falling Down.
Apparently the 70s was a good time to lose your mind. 😂
Arthur Fleck --> A. Fleck --> Affleck
Those genius bastards ^^
Holy fuck
Arthur Fleck is the name of the joker in The Killing Joke, a comic book from 1998 if I remember well, so it's a coincidence. But a nice one nonetheless, nice observation!
Idk why, but I'm digging your content. There's something just.....nice and wholesome about it.
Subscribed.
8:00 In the Dark Knight, Ledger's Joker stood out more than Batman because of Bale , not the character itself. Bale just wasn't in the same level of acting as Ledger.
I partly agree. But I'd say it's more of the way he was written for th3 film.
I mean, can you imagine how amazing joker would be if Nicholson was given full roam for the 80s role?
This movie is HUGLEY inspired by Taxi Driver, I think Scorsese is even producing it.
Best reaction ever, before trailw, why are they doing this? After trailer stunned silence
Their faces right at the end after the word 'SMILE' is priceless. It's like they wanted to say: 'It's, it's... perfect!'
Falling Down meets Taxi Driver. This movie will escalate really bad towards the end, and I can't wait to witness it. Looks amazing!
I actually hope it will escalate badly, with Arthur going from troubled-but-sympathetic to full-on downright EVIL, completing the transformation.
I didn't think Jared Leto was bad. He was just kind of not given a movie to shine.
Your expressions during the trailer :) Joaquin Phoenix is amazing actor. The trailer is really good, chills and goosebumps while and after watching it :)
i disagree not faling down at least IMO its more like Taxi Driver! Even the way its shot it reminds me of scorsese style filming! Looks incredible!
Oh, good point.
Loved your reaction right after the trailer!
I'm really sold by this trailer and really surprised how it's not any ordinary comic book movie and looks nothing like it, it's more like a character study.
Really sold by Joaquin Phoenix's performance. Heath Ledger will still no doubt be the best but Phoenix seems like he will be close to it or equally good!
Really interested about the other cast members too. The girl smiling at Joaquin in the donut store is Zazie Beetz from Deadpool. The talk show host is Robert DeNiro. And also cool to know the guy on TV about the guy hiding behind the mask is playing Thomas Wayne. And the kid behind the gate is playing Bruce Wayne.
Literally got tears in my eyes 😢
Oscar confirmed!
I feel you
Lets be honest....Joker is a BAD PERSON. I am tired of seeing it being downplayed.
I am great there is a reasoning behind it all but more then anything...I WANT THIS MOVIE TO GO AS DARK AS POSSIBLE.
Tired of what one of they most disgusting psychopaths is being watered down...NO MORE DAMMIT.
Understand him...BUT UNDERSTAND HE IS VILE AND DOES VILE THINGS AND SHOW IT.
Just my take.
I heard it is R but more importantly I heard it is a HARD R.
PERFECT :)

Don't worry heath joaquin will continue your legacy 👍👌
I think he only sent a LIVING rat. Lol and it lives with Guillermo Del Toro now
This makes like DC more than Marvel cause I'm just getting bored of Marvel
Same the marvel movies are really repetitive cause of the same formula for every movie..
Joker is a breath of fresh air
@@LordFrieza848 yes indeed
100/10
I felt this film was trying to show that the joker isn't a "cool" character. The Leto Joker wanted to make Joker cool and sexy but that's not him. Joker is tragic, deranged, damaged, and full of hatred. Much of the public almost celebrates mental illness but this movie wipes all that off the table and points to what it truly is and I don't think a lot of people are going to be comfortable watching how much the every day person can contribute to making a Joker every day.
This is the best trailer that I've ever seen in my entire life.
That moment of silence tells it all
You guys are really good at reviewing after the reaction, I'm sticking around. SUBBED!
Thanks, we appreciate you sticking around after the trailer for all the jokes.Thanks for subscribing 😁
Now I understand how one guy, with no super power, no monstrous intelligence, no money, no authority, but madness alone can stand up as the best villain in DC universe. Joker was made by society. You cant kill society, another Joker will just rise up.
Dude. Movie looks freaking amazing
Perfect comparison with 'Falling Down' in that a normal man has his life turned upside down.
Taxi Driver meets joker
Joaquin is one of the best
He goes from jesus to joker and we should rejoice hes doing this.

Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it’s breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
you’ll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You’ll see the sun come shining through
for you
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That’s the time you must keep on trying
Smile what’s the use of crying
You’ll find that life is still worthwhile
If you’ll just

There should be a movie about the drama behind the making of Suicide Squad.
This trailer was creepy & made me feel for the joker at the same time....I'm all the way in 👏👋
Movie is by far best of the year .. Oscar worthy 💯!! Based on when Bruce Wayne was a kid ... go watch it it’s amazing!!! Best movie for the longest time!
When Scorsese, Phillips and Phoenix come to you and say I want to do a Joker film. You say yes
Great comparison to ‘Falling Down’. I completely agree. I can’t wait to see how they have the Joker descend into madness.
5:21 WAIT WAIT I KNEW THIS MOVIE TOOK PLACE IN NEW YORK BUT NOT NEAR THE HEGHTS.......... AND YOU GUYS LIVE IN THE HEIGHTS ?!?!?!?!?!
BRO I LIVE IN THE HEIGHTS TOO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also, Falling Down was a good and underrated movie.
The little kid he "makes" smile is Bruce Wayne so hopefully this can be the first of many in a new timeline/franchise. It's done right by building the character up. I want anticipation in movies like Jaws, ET the dark knight building to Bruce Wayne becoming Batman.
When he does that little jump/stand thing on the stairs... that's a classic Joker move. Check it out again.
I love the elsewhere angle! Works with the comics I'm sure it'll be okay for the movies. Especially with lower budgeted, character driven movies like this.

To quote the daoist sage, John Mcclain "Welcome to the party pal"
All I want to know is who Woody Harrelson is going to play in DC's next movie they'll make as a result of this movies success.

It just reminds me of killing joke.. like he says in the film. "It just takes one bad day to makes the sanest man crazy"
It's a crime that you've never seen Falling Down. It's one of the best movies ever from a time when action movies ruled the world. Michael Douglas is brilliant (like always).
Nailed it on Falling Down. Nailed it in the other reaction on him killing DeNiro. You're a nailer.

As of this posting, 24 Jared Letos have disliked this video. Also, a 3/5 is way too low. Come on guys! ;)
Many modern iterations of Joker in other media have kind of adopted this concept that he was a really good guy before the world finally broke him. And actually this origin makes him eventually a way better villain. I think this may be the DC answer to Logan. This may be an R-rated character piece. Also, this takes place in 1981.

As the Buddha is within you, Christ Jesus is within you, eternal God is within you, JOKER IS WITHIN YOU and so everything is within you till the time you accept it and let it go. Things happen in our life and basically be more aware of those daily rut we get into and how repeat themselves (it is at the most core of your life and what you are, for you are being the imagination of your own creative powers, these are thoughts words deeds of yours and mostly the feelings, how you intrepret, construe, perceive, assume life itself. Mental and physical worlds own & exist to That which are Conscious of those. Conscious is aware of Conscious_ness. It is the Isness of Conscious aware something being becoming till the pendulum of time wrecked you down and become nothing_ness as you change. You are a state a nation a world of trillion cells living under the laws of the same world you live in and half of the same govern Will. Because your heart beaten unwillingly of your conscious Will you are pointing out yourself to be but cannot fix a standard point where it is by virtue that you belongs to nothing specific. You are the process and along with world move together. The problem is when you perceive yourself to be between two worlds and thus duality is of the bigger grandeur problem of confliction of main issues we have to deal with daily. I said all this because with this trailer and because this Joker seems to get you goosebumps because they target to produce something which was someone (a boy to bring happiness in the world according to his mom's standards but become no one specific individual (after his life tragedy) but holds one very sociable and individual characteristic of that Conscious persona you put on every day (I mean of that ''I am blah blah blah" viz EGO. We all are the Ego and with that Joker you will see clearly pristinely unvaguely the personification of what we eagerly anticipate to watch on our screens. _JOKER_ . this is also why we do not see at the titles ''The Joker'' but JOKER. All the scenario and life being done around JOKER. This movie if it is gonna be a special one and fancy in a good way MUST JOKER BE and we remain to see the plot and the whole conspiracy inside the brain of Arthur before became Joker. It is Joker and not the Joker because he is not Joker merely himself, you are Joker also. I wonder how they will point to it. So who create the plot must bring you into the psych mind of the same person who have been through similar things happen to you. (unfold the Joker inside you.) Maybe this Joker ain't simply an egoistic junkie addicted to criminal activities and connive odd devious plot, a tricky one mad man with sharp intelligent of what he is doing. This Joker must be not a left brainer plainly but the total power of a perfect mindset looking and seeking into life as life is himself. So much confident must be this Joker, therefore I am not curious of Joaquin Phoenix's stature pose and voice tone/tint; He will show us FROM ...(woe is me) TO ...(**** you all).
I've watched a handful of your reactions, and I appreciate your takes on things. You earned the subscription... keep up the good work!
Thanks, glad to have you along 🙂
One thing, while I enjoyed the Nolan Trilogy, let's 100% real here, his Batman wasn't a good Batman. I think Batman Begins had the best Batman and is why that's my favorite of the 3 movies, but none of the movies have come close to what the Batman is.
Firstly none of the movies feature one of his greatest traits, being The World's Greatest Detective. The most we've ever gotten is in the original Tim Burton film and Batman gives Vicki Vale that information about the mixture of chemicals the Joker is using to make people smile.
And one of the things the Nolan Trilogy didn't have is the fact that Bruce would much rather be Batman than Bruce, it's his mission, he's sole purpose for existing, and he sacrifices Bruce Wayne in order to keep going as Batman.
The only really good Batmans we've seen on a screen are the Animated versions and the Arkham games. None of the movie's have had great Batmans.
I think I like this Joker more than even Ledger's scratchy voice version. I empathize with Joaquin's Joker more than Heath's, because a completely mental person is more likely to be quiet than one that keeps on talking. But Heath's has become the new "baseline" for all Joker's now, in the same way all TV Jokers will always be compared to the Classic TV Joker portrayed by Cesar Romero.
