Redditors love to hate on Joker. It makes them feel part of the "elite".
Because far leftiest can't comprehend that a white straight male can have problems and not always be the one who's oppressing.
Damn snobs
No hate. Just some Leto's fans.
To me it felt like a decent movie with DC stuff add on top.
Letterboxd reviews are the worst
>Codified racism anyone?
What the fuck? Are these people insane?
>Film is about how lack of empathy and treating people like freaks does nothing but harm
>Fucking retards start his "review" making a joke about how he would treat the main character as a freak
I liked it but there was a couple of problems. First, I did find it kind of slow at the end, I think they should have shown Gotham in chaos more than just the last couple minutes at the end and also the fact that Joker wasn't actually fucking the black chick kind of disappointed me. But it was still a good movie.
A worse version the The King of Comedy
You have to ask?
Ahahahahaha, this never gets old.
It's crazy how people went in ready to hate the movie due to imagined politics. They thought it was some rightwing incel movie despite the fact the movie makes a point to be apolitical.
>the movie literally ends with theblower class violently uprising because of a working class madman driven to the brink
>the movie tried to be apolitical
I liked it as a movie, but try as I might I can't really think of the main character as "the Joker."
That makes them hate it even more. It doesn't validate their ideology
Joker explicitly says he's not political. The point of the end of the movie is that anyone can imagine their own politics into the guy.
You can imagine him as left or right if you do enough mental gymnastics.
There's a difference between plot and themes.
This, all the worst things about the movie were it's incredibly lazy ties to the Joker characterm
oh the insane character says something we definitely should take it at face value!
>the writer is a coward because they didn't make it typical leftist Hollywood trash that validates my worldview
>Phillips: guys this is different take on the character in a realistic setting showing how a person like the Joker would actually be in the real world. It's an alternate universe and a different version set in the multiverse.
>Fanboys: k but why isnt like mah comics?
Do you really think Joker gives a fuck about politics?
Okay, but the reality is that Arthur is just Travis Bickle and Rupert Pupkin rolled into one character with "Joker" slapped on.
>I love this movie that includes a ruthless takedown of how neocon austerity contributes to fucking over those on the margins and driving them to the brink
>heh dumb libtards hate that the movie doesn't have their views
A bizarre situation where neither the haters nor the lovers of the movie understand it at all.
I think the version from the film very specifically hates those he sees as abusing their superior status in society which is a rather political bend to the character, yes.
Travis = wannabe vigilante with delusions of saving the city, literally the contrary of Arthur
Rupert = Mentally ill guy stalking a tv host. Only the former is a similarity
Arthur = childlish retard loser that starts a revolution by accident
The actual character of the Joker would probably be a huge Trump supporter if Trump ever so much as gave him a handshake.
Then if Trump accidentally dissed him by making a joke about clowns or whatever he'd have murderous rage against the guy. He's mentally ill. He doesn't think politics he just wants someone to be nice to him for a change.
It doesn't tell you that rich people are all bad, and poor people are all good, so it is bad, thank you for reading my letterbox review
>Joker 2019
>realistic
Phillipsfags are just hilarious. Losing your job, social services therapist benefits, and killing your mother and assaulting your newfound biological father in a span of 36 hours is jot "realistic". In fact the entire point of the Joker's origin, the "one bad day" concept is that the world has treated the Joker in such an unbelievable way that he in turn begins to behave in the same unbelievable way. You don't even understand the film or character you have such a hard on for.
No the Joker is an anarchist, he believes all government is inherently unnatural and must be destroyed.
Maybe comics Joker, but the one in the movie was pissed that the government didn't provide safety nets for crazy people like him.
