Spoiling: JOKER
Update: 2024-09-29
Description
With Joker: Folie à Deux releasing very soon, we felt it appropriate to revisit one of the best and most different comicbook movies ever made. We analyze what made it such a surprise success, almost as surprising as Todd Phillips completely separating from his comedy roots. We reflect on the story, both as huge Batman/Joker fans, but also just as an iconic film in cinema history for its visual style and the performances within. But I think most importantly, we discuss the portrayal of mental health and the relationship society has with it, as well as the tendency for people in bad situations to find the wrong people to blame and also elect just the worst people to hopefully lead them out of it. Then of course we also share our hopes and dreams (and mainly concerns) about the sequel in advance of its release.
Before that, Dustin gives spoiler-free first impressions of Hit Man, Under Paris, Night Swim, and Bad Boys: Ride or Die. Jake also saw Hit Man, and randomly shares thoughts on Planes and Perfect Match season 2.
