I'm more curious than anything. I didn't hate it but it came off as pretty toothless to me, to the point where I'm amazed there was "controversy" surrounding the movie being offensive because the only thing offensive about the movie was how inoffensive it was. Forget the Taxi Driver comparisons, stuff like A Clockwork Orange and The Wolf of Wall Street are frankly better Joker movies. I'm still glad the movie was made and that lots of people saw it though, but stuff like this makes me amazed at how easily offended people can get.

I agree, the "controversy" was dumb as hell. I liked it, not sure if I'll see the sequel though. Not sure how Wolf of Wall Street fits into a similar category......Taxi Driver of course, and Clockwork Orange a little bit. Might've followed King of Comedy even more closely than Taxi Driver.

I liked it a lot. I probably wasn't very online at the time and didn't know there was any controversy.

Good for those who liked it. I guess I just named Wolf of Wall Street as an example of a superior (to me anyway) anti-hero/villain protagonist kind of movie. Also I've never seen The King of Comedy so I was just naming stuff I've seen which I think make better templates for a Joker movie than what we actually got.

Extremely good marketing with the fake controversy, for an otherwise bland movie

Yeah the whole movie came off as a massive anticlimax to me. Maybe it didn't help I watched it in early 2021 so a riot seemed pretty quaint for a climax after 2020.

Would have been better as a stand alone film with no attempted Batman tie in
