DCooper 36,914 Posted October 5 Spoiler I thought it was really interesting. Will definitely be disregarded as boring and pointless by a lot of people, but that was kind of the point. It refused to give us what we want, because a story about a person like this should not be entertainment, and we should not be turning this type of person into an icon. There's nothing special about this Joker, just another sad, disturbed and violent man, and many more Jokers will come after him. I can definitely see why it will be a frustrating film for people, but I appreciated the risk in storytelling and the message landed pretty well for me. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m really not buying the whole “the movie was supposed to be boring” narrative people are pushing The message was clear but the execution was just really bad 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It edged us the whole movie but was never planning on giving the Joker that people wanted. I personally wasn't bored. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
