If you like boring ass movies about a guy who cant laugh i guess id see why you like this movie
It wasn't without its merits but was just a really weird, slow movie. It was basically just Taxi Driver + The King of Comedy + clown makeup. Just kind of a hodgepodge of a bunch of stuff we've already seen before. But it's somehow being hailed as unique and groundbreaking just because it's being done in a comic book universe.
One thing that really bugged me.... I'm pretty sure Joker isn't supposed to be like 35 years older than Batman.
I really enjoyed it, and that did bother me.
would have been nice if they made Bruce like 15 or so, but I’m not sure how they would have made that work since it would have altered the lore.
I mean, they had already altered the lore by even giving Joker this origin story. That whole scene just felt so forced to me. Like some idiot movie producer going "We gotta work Bruce Wayne into this movie somehow!". And the whole sliding down the pole thing just to really drive the point home lol.I really enjoyed it, and that did bother me.

IDK I just have mixed emotions about this one. I feel like, from a technical standpoint, this is a very well made movie. It just never really grabbed me, despite typically being a sucker for anything Batman/Joker. I think that's probably because it really didn't feel like a Batman/Joker movie at all. Like remove the Bruce scene and the fact that he's called "Joker" and it's just some slow burn story about a lunatic clown who kills a few people, a la Taxi Driver. I know I'm probably not explaining my thoughts on this part very well but I'm having trouble putting it into words at the moment. Like it almost felt like this was a totally independent script and then they just tacked on some Batman mythology, if that makes sense.
I'd rather watch Mask of the Phantasm over and over again.I mean, they had already altered the lore by even giving Joker this origin story. That whole scene just felt so forced to me.

No I get it, I feel it falls victim to the same thing “Gotham” fell victim to.I mean, they had already altered the lore by even giving Joker this origin story.

You want your signature guy in the movie for fan service, even though it wasn’t really needed. Had Phoenix been about 7ish years younger, I believe it would have worked. Then push the time frame into like the 90s or so.
I get all your complaints, and they are valid, I just loved seeing an origin story, and imo, was a good story. Maybe not executed as well, like you mentioned, but it had an interesting dynamic imo.
Finally watched Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Kinda knew what direction it was going to go pretty quickly. Still had some good moments.

I watched Venom last night. There was a good movie in there somewhere. It just didn't have a chance to come out.
The initial interactions between Eddie Brock and Venom were great. Then the third act started...

It was extremely rushed... SONY was gunning for the franchise.I watched Venom last night. There was a good movie in there somewhere. It just didn't have a chance to come out.

Also...
I felt the information that Venom was "killing" Brock over time was blown off.
Yea this was my opinion as well.I watched Venom last night. There was a good movie in there somewhere. It just didn't have a chance to come out.

It’s like they couldn’t decide between Deadpool or a Spider-Man film.
Brock was too likable.Yea this was my opinion as well.

Eddie Brock is not likeable.
Marvel has a Tony Stark syndrome problem.Brock was too likable.
Eddie Brock is not likeable.
every man that isn’t Cap or Thor has to be a narcissistic, sarcastic asshole with some sort of personal problem not related to those, that they have to overcome.
Ant man, Dr. Strange, and Iron Man are all the same person.
But that is Tony Stark.Marvel has a Tony Stark syndrome problem.

Pretty sure that's Strange.
I don't know Lang from the comics well... but Pym was a wife-beater. But they glossed over that, but he wasn't the main character.
Eddie Brock IS a jerk and not likeable.
The Brock in the movie is not Marvel.
Stan Lee specifically designed Stark to be someone that you aren't supposed to like...from his alcoholism to his occupation. Same with Strange. Strange gains power through humility; Stark gains humility through power.
Midnight Special.. watched it last night on a whim, really good stuff. Strong cast and acting.. can't really think of anything that left me wishing it were done differently
I thought Doctor Sleep was really really fuggn good. I don't get why it didn't get more hype.
@SawdustMan
The Irishman was a slam-dunk. The duration wasn't too bad. It was well-paced. The last 20 minutes were totally unnecessary though.
