Joker 2 is FLOPPING

They messed up making this a musical

Wicked is doomed and they made that into two parts.

Get that fugly hag off our screens!

Haha for Joaquin Phoenix. Cunt.

I feel fairly confident in saying that Gladiator II will flop as well.

River never would have flopped as the Joker.

The str8 bros don't want to watch a musical with ugly gaga as harley quinn in it

Will Gaga also have an "Italian" accent that sounds Russian on this too?

It should've been you instead, Joaquin.

[quote] The str8 bros

The standard for 'str8 bros' has truly dropped, hasn't it? Bros used to have a connotation of athletics and frat-boy behavior, not basement-dwelling virgins.

Lady Gaga is someone who has no appeal to me as an actress. When I saw she costars in this I lost any interest in seeing this.

GOOD. I couldn't stand the pretentious original. Joker is dark and depressing. The Kind of Comedy (1982) is fun and uplifting.

R12: I agree and I certainly would not have given Phoenix the Oscar for it.

the ONLY good superhero movies are spiderman 3 and the batman with arnold schwarzenegger

Ugh. Does anybody remember when comic books and superheroes were considered the realm of uncool nerds?

When the hell did that shift?

It just doesn’t look good. Why in the hell did they make it a musical? Heath Ledger is laughing from his grave.

This looks terrible. I watched an interview of the cast and director yesterday and couldn't believe it. A MUSICAL? What in the fuck were they thinking?

DIS. AS. TER.

Gaga must be box office poison. I've only seen her in one movie, House of Gucci and she wasn't good.

It seems like they deliberately created a bomb. Talk about misreading your fans. They created a musical for women when the last one was violent and misanthropic for men. GaGa is a movie killer, just like Madonna.

Not every movie needs a sequel. Most don't, The Godfather was an exception.

Joker was creepy so 2 must be worse. Joaquin Phoenix should have won the oscar for Walk the Line, he did the singing and did an impressive job of Johnny Cash's voice.

FU, OP. Saw it, loved it.

Joker 1 came out pre pandemic. The world is just not the same. 2 years of shut downs normalized an already young audience that was increasingly abandoning the normal theater going experience.

The Vadge fans are out in full force.

59% on RT. Director has just come out and said this is it for him. No more DC movies.

Batman and Robin? The worst Batman movie of all-time? THAT Batman with Fatgirl? lmao. It ended the franchise.

Gaga doesn’t have a big part in the film. She’s basically a cameo.

R26 The person is being sarcastic. R27 have you legit seen it?

White people are crazy 😂. She was not fat in Batman and Robin unless you have a fucking eating disorder. Lord.

She was definitely fat. She was skinny a few years prior. Everyone noticed the weight gain. She’s MAGA now so fuck her.

I love all the 90s Batmans and has seen that movie 100 goddam times so I went to google make sure my memory wasn’t playing tricks on me. That girl was not fat in that film. This is fat to you?

Hey Joaquin!!

How you doing, baby?

[quote] unless you have a fucking eating disorder.

I don't know about that R29, but I do know that, at the very least, you have multiple personality disorder. Holier-than-thou/BlackMussy/Teacake/All the other "Mafuckin" sock puppet accounts you may have. Cementing your status as the resident looney on DL. One unmedicated and unhinged post at a time.

R31, that a professional retouched photograph. She was definitely not in good shape in the film.

Of course to fucking fat as a house Americans now Alicia looks svelte.

R33 no you are just narrow minded and think a black can’t be talking about these subject matters. Yes I am all the monikers you just listed. I am not lipstick lesbian or Greg. Nexttttttttt

R34 Bro I saw this movie so many freaking times along with the other 90s ones so I hate to be a matter of fact cunt, but I’m sorry Imma argue the point. This is a scene from the film. This bitch was not fat. What she was— was a British cunt with an American accent which made no sense at all.

Very bad reviews

Now now, when did I ever say she was svelte. Alicia looks to be a size 6, maybe an 8 in this film. That’s why a whole generation of Becky’s walking round with eating disorders lol. This girl was simply not fat. She got a big head but she is not fat and never has been

[quote] 1 are just narrow minded and think a black can’t be talking about these subject matters. Yes I am all the monikers you just listed. I am not lipstick lesbian or Greg. Nexttttttttt

Pipe the fuck down teacunt you're not intimidating anybody with your internet gangsta act. I'm sure you mean "next" as in the next personality/account you're getting ready to switch to. I almost admire your dedication, but then I remember how offensive this charade really is. I dont think you're black or African American at all, and you have the most inane nonsensical opinions out of everyone here, R36. You need therapy, not another Datalounge account.

R40 No I meant next like I put you in your mafuckin place now move along. I didn’t read the rest of your diatribe.

R41 You can't read or type at all. Dumb "mafuckin" cunt.

I love Gaga but this looks like dreck. No thanks!

Stephanie can’t act and she’s ugly. The movie is a piece of shit.

LMAO!!!

R45 I love how The Ga always acts like she's a master thespian who studied under Uta Hagen.

The first film was kind of a fluke. Making the sequel a courtroom drama with musical interludes shows a lack of understanding of the material.

People don't want to watch the Joker singing in court; they want to see him causing mayhem and outsmarting Batman.

She needs to learn the value of shutting the fuck up

Apparently she was a nightmare on set.

Really took her character to heart, would only answer to "Lee," etc...

You know, cause she's real method.

Very tired of comic book movies.

Straight men don’t like Lady Gaga.

The release date isn't until October 4, 2024.

RT has it at 48% from 85 reviewers. There are no fans score yet.

Some reviews:

"The joke is on the audience with the absolutely awful sequel Joker: Folie à Deux".

"After a strong start, it turns into a ponderous film".

"Joker: Folie à Deux is cheap. It cost a lot, but it’s cheap".

"One of the most egregious examples of a cynical cash-grab that only exists because the previous film over-performed".

Variety’s headline is misleading. They meant to say “Because of Lady Gaga” not “Even with Lady Gaga”

Wasn’t most of the appeal of the first movie that he was an incel loser? Millions of guys could relate to that. Nobody cares about the joker in love.

Gaga assesses her acting career....

The hate for Gaga here and on other threads is so over the top and ludicrous that one might think, if one hadn't seen her in anyrthing, that she is as bad as the DL Vadge queens claim. The actual facts of the matter are: she's an infinitely more talented singer than Vadge, as well as being a musician (which Vadge is not), and as far as acting goes, Gaga can act circles around the old movie killer Vadge. Gaga is okay in movies. I thought she was uninteresting in A Star Is Born (but virtuallly every other actress in that part was as well, doing the sickly noble bit), and in House of Gucci, she was good. In truth, the terrible performances in that movie were Jared Leto and, as usual, Pacino.

Gaga was not good in House of Gucci. Everyone was bad but she was terrible.

R58, if you think her performance was worse than Leto's, there's nothing I can do to help you.

Her accent was the worse of the bunch.

Everything about Leto, including that accent, was terrible. And yes, his accent was the worst. Hers was authentic.

R57, we get it already... you really, really, really hate Madonna. Which shows your age since the real battle these days is Gaga vs. Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, Beyonce, etc...

But anyways, it is possible to see through Gaga's phony baloney act and have it completely disassociated from Madonna.

This might even strike you as inconceivable that some us care for neither.

No, dear, R62, I don't hate Madonna nor do I love Gaga. I'm merely saying Gaga has more talent in every direction, and I mentioned the caveats. That's all.

And by the way, "anyways" isn't a word.

R62 also can't seem to get around discussing Gaga's behavior ("phony") as opposed to her abilities, so I'd say it is, in fact, personal for them. They don't like Gaga personally.

[quote] Which shows your age since the real battle these days is Gaga vs. Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, Beyonce, etc...

All four of them are middle aged or close to it. They're hardly spring chickens.

Years ago, when we were secretly living in San Diego and crashing on the floor of a beach shack, we never wore shoes. He told me he wanted to make love to me on a canvas." Finally making good on Kinney's promise, the couple slathered on some paint, did the deed, and thus, a cover was born. "We made love on the canvas on a Sunday in Chicago," she explains. "We made love amidst chaos. We talked about shootings. We made love amidst terrorism. And we talked about how people's hearts are also suffering all over the world as they watch and witness!

This will end up making less than Wonka. Audiences like musicals, but they need to be upbeat.

It's a fucking comic book movie, not The Three Faces of Eve.
