Remember Iron Man 3?

And the ovation Kingsley received?

This is all hype. Now I believe that a movie loosely based on The Killing Joke could succeed --- but let's not get too crazy.

WB admitted defeat by going back to their old formula of standalone films, not connected to the shared universe stuff.

Don't know why you're comparing Kingsley to Phoenix, and their respected roles. This movie has Oscar bait all over it, while IM 3 did not. Even the top critics are praising Phoenix's performance, while nobody praised Kingsley's. This is night and day.

Not sure why WB and their fans not mentally ill people to kill???

WB also likes a convicted child rapist and pedophile in their film as well and I can prove it

yea but who gives a rats ass on what critics say... at the end of the day the audience will decide if this is a piece of shit or something great. also there will be other alleged oscar worthy performances so Phoenix might not make the final cut, coz right now only people being talked about getting nominated are Bale and Damon and I can prove it.

well said

From my experience the critics don't seem to know jack sh!t. I still think this movie is going to suck.

They go by rowes. First 2 rows clap for about a minute, then the second row, and so on. Lasts for about 10 minutes.

Ah right, so it’s planned and normal to do that?

Just as I suspected: this film was a total flop.

DC and Warner Bros need to just give up. Joker was never funny to begin with.

I just hope Joker gets a massive kill count, and they really explore the depths of his mental illness.

Apparently I'm not the only one looking forward to that. 👆

Joker was originally a fan of Galactus and James Bond (he even called himself "Galan007" on message boards, lmao), then he witnessed Big G getting toppled by Benjamin J. Grimm and Daniel Craig getting picked as the new Bond.

It broke the guy.

Lol. I was kidding. Its probably fake news. Joker probably did have a standing ovation, but it was nowhere near 8 minutes.

It was 8 hours.

From a single guy.

His name was Golgo and his hands exploded from clapping.

😂 how did you know?

"They don't agree with me!"= "Critics don't seem to know jack shit".

Cosmic Awareness is my superpower.

Are you going to get some cool promethium bionics from WB or they're gonna give you a regenerating serum so you can grow those hands back?

I heal quickly. 🙂

Got a healing factor from Deathstroke's semen, I take it?

Its true that they (critics) are entitled to their own opinion.

But question is, why should we take any note of what they think?
