Joker (2019) Alleged Script Leak (warning: Possible Spoilers)
[SPOILER - highlight to read]: The film was also described as Taxi Driver meets Se7en meets The King of Comedy, but take this with a grain of salt, I don't know if its real or not, but tbh its kinda interesting.
>1980’s Gotham City.
>Arthur Fleck is a struggling standup comedian who moves back in with his ailing bipolar mother to take care of her.
>Arthur is a socially awkward introvert with a condition that causes him to laugh uncontrollably when nervous.
>Arthur’s stand-up routine sucks and he works part-time as a clown to cover expenses. One of his coworkers gives him a gun for protection after some punks assault Arthur.
>Arthur develops a crush on his neighbor Zazie Beetz, a single mom who works at a bank, and begins stalking her. She treats him well out of pity, which he misconstructs as genuine affection.
>Most of the movie is just Arthur slowly spiraling into insanity due to his shitty life and abusive mother. He also resents the wealthy.
>A recording of his shitty standup is shown and mocked on a popular late night talk show hosted by Robert De Niro.
>Thomas Wayne is the Mayor and people have been protesting against him for neglecting the poor masses.
>Arthur’s mother was once Thomas' secretary and tells Arthur during one of her maniac episodes that he is Thomas’ son.
>Arthur aggravates Thomas with his attempts to get close (stalking Thomas’ family at Wayne Manor, sneaking into a fundraiser and ambushing Thomas in the bathroom, etc.) and gets beaten and humiliated.
>Arthur gets into an altercation with three Wall Street types in the subway and kills them in clown getup, which becomes a symbol against the rich that oppress and abuse the poor.
>While Arthur away his mother has an episode and is sent to Arkham.
>Arthur catches Zazie with her boyfriend and makes a scene at the bank, calling her a whore and getting her fired, for which she cuts ties with him.
>Arthur finds out she was obsessed with Thomas but he never ****ed her, so Arthur isn’t his son. He also learn she was aware her boyfriend was sexually abusing 4-year-old Arthur and let it happen.
>Arthur visits his mom in Arkham and kills her (off-screen).
>De Niro’s talk show tracks Arthur and invites him to a guest spot to roast him some more.
>Arthur embraces the identity of “Joker” and begins killing people who wronged him, though he spares Zazie.
>At the talk show, Joker calls for an uprising against the rich before shooting De Niro on live television.
>His speech triggers a citywide riot, during which Thomas and Martha Wayne get shot by one of his followers.
>Joker is chased by the police through the city, but eventually gets caught and arrested.
>Movie ends with Joker being committed to Arkham, so out of reality he “hears” the soundtrack (“That’s Life” by Frank Sinatra) and dances to it as the credits roll.
>Arthur does a lot of dancing in the movie. He dances with his mom, dances after killing the Wall Street guys, dances as he becomes the Joker, dances on the talk show, etc.
>Arthur dancing on the steps is to the sound of "Bennie and the Jets" by Elton John.
>Arthur only wears the full Joker costume in the third arc, roughly 30 minutes at most.
Lol I sure hope this is fake. Not cuz I'm mad over being spoiled, but cuz the bennie and the jets scene...just...just no.

WB already screened this movie to some critics, and the response was quite positive. Creepy and sad were the words that mentioned, apparently Phoenix just killed it, no suprise there. And more thing, don't expect this movie to be like a typical CBM, no grand set pieces, no intense fight scenes. And lastly this movie will be a hard R, tons of F bombs, nudity/some sex scene and straight up gore.

Hollywood is using these stand-alone movies as an excuse to get their actors more money - even when they don't understand the genres they're bringing to the screen.
They make a movie about Venom being a good guy, with no Spiderman
And now a Joker movie with no Batman
They should cast Liam Neeson as Lex Luthor in a movie without Superman - and in it Lex finds out he was the byproduct of incest and was born mentally-retarded and grew up in the street eating shit out of sewer pipes.
Then when he goes to college, he pays his college tuition by sucking dicks of random men in the parking lot of a McDonalds at night.
Then he finds out that his father abandoned him, and that his father was a homosexual, drag-queen stripper prostitute that had sex with his mother one drunken night, because he mistook her for a man.
Then Lex's beloved kitten succumbs to Feline-Leukemia.
Then Lex has an epic meltdown-scene where he enters the Mayor's office and starts projectile-vomiting everywhere, until the entire office is covered in vomit.
Finally, Lex Luthor finds his mother and father, vomits all over them and then proceeds to gorily eat them.
Then the film ends with "Benny and the Jets" playing.
Thanks, Hollywood!

^ Nobody likes my idea for Liam Neeson as Lex Luthor?
Not enough vomit, mental-retardation, or homosexual-molestation?
It doesn't matter if the film bears 0% resemblence to the source-material - we just need an excuse to get Liam Neeson more work, and make sure this film has at least one scene where Liam-Lex is brutally-raped in the bathroom stall of a Waffle House.
