I just saw joker and I actually really liked it! Wanted more Gaga but overall I thought it was a perfectly fine film with great performances.

I can fathom people watching it and maybe being indifferent or underwhelmed but i'm genuinely shocked people find it "bad" or "horrible"....at worst the movie is just...there. at best its fine with good performances. it's no masterpiece but the hate against it feels very, shall i say, forced. I preferred Joker:FAD to, say...Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice.

Yeah I agree. Like at most I can understand someone getting bored by the slow-pace and find the story lacking. But to hate it as much as people are hating it? I feel like it's raging incel fueled and other people went along with it.

yup. there's nothing offensively bad about this moving - the story is fine if unimagined, the pacing is inconsistent, but the acting and cinematography are both solid. I'm actually really bummed at the major critical and commercial failure now having seen it. Doesn't deserve the tidal wave of hate. It was obviously much much much better than House of Gucci, which I found genuinely tedious - borderline painful - to sit through.

I'm glad you were able to enjoy it.. But HoG was at least amusing and funny at points. JFAD literally shouldn't have even existed, given how pointless the entire "story" was, and there's no worse insult to a movie.

As I've mentioned before, I think context is everything in these situations.

 

While FaD isn't the worst movie of the year, it's the sequel that carried the highest expectations—and ended up shattering them all. People were incredibly excited to see Gaga as Harley, only to get a hollow version of the character.

 

In my opinion, it's a bad movie with some redeeming qualities, but I don't think it's overhated. It's more that it was the most disappointing film of the year, which is why people were so upset. Now, no one's really talking about it anymore—the conversation has died. It'll be remembered only for its box office failure and soon forgotten.

agree to disagree. i never really got the humor of that movie, and frankly the narrative people tried to build around it as "camp" felt really forced.

also - this is how i feel about the newest Beetlejuice movie. a very forced, paper-thin plot to justify a sequel.

I agree, it wasn't bad just boring as hell.

 

it would've been at least serviceable/decent if:

 

Spoiler

They shorten the courtroom scenes, which were rather pointless. (they saw him blow a guys brains out on live TV, of course he's guilty)
Harley is the one who blows up the courthouse, they escape together and go on a killing spree, maybe rob a bank or something else sinister as the third act.

Then he could still get captured and 'killed' or whatever at the end.

 

Movie fixed.

i dont think the courtroom scenes felt as pointless as many say  -  they showed the impact that Lee has on Arthur as he is internally torn between being Joker to earn/maintain her love and to just be Arthur, which may be the way to spare his life and only be institutionalized. The scenes with Gary Puddle also show his understanding of how his actions had consequences thus leading him to choose to eschew the Joker persona and losing Lee in the process. maybe they were boring, but they weren't pointless!

all that was fine, just should've been condensed to maybe a half hour, tops...

All the people who hate JFAD are the ones that likes movies like Venom or Deadpool so...

 

[Happylittlepunk]

I have a feeling LG7 will be basically be a step up of chromatica or "what chromatica should've been".  Similiar situation where "a star is a born" was a step up off "Joan".

Gaga…where are youuuuu? Come out and play with us. We just wanna talk for a minute trust  

[ineedboxinggloves]

Anyone else can't get J:FaD out of their head? I've never tried crack but I can imagine this is what withdrawals are like

 

It truly hit the home run for me and I'm not upset it flopped, but I am sad that many of us aren't appreciating Gar's spectacular performance because it did flop  lots of us just want to bury this and move onto the LG7 which even Gaga seems to be doing but I'm sad we let these ugly incels win, we should still be gagging over the performance she gave us.
 

When she's saying goodbye to Arthur on the staircase scene and her singing on top of that. This talented legend. seriously one of my favorite moments ever in cinema history
