Joker
You an I, tonight!
You may forget the warmth he gave,
I will forget the light.
When you have done, pray tell me
That I my thoughts may dim;
Haste! lest while you're lagging.
I may remember him!
Emily Dickinson

That’s not a criticism though. It’s one of the best films I’ve seen in recent years!

People who read are hiders. They hide who they are. People who hide don't always like who they are.

I felt horrified for Arthur and happy when he found what made him happy, killing. The twisting my emotions and preconceived ideas of good and evil is exactly what I love in a story line.

It is easier to see a villain as “bad” when you don’t know their story.

I agree with you. Before that movie, the Joker was just a crazy villain you loved to hate because there’s just nothing good about him. In the movie, he’s still crazy, but you realise some people were mean to him for no reasons. It made me conflicted about a character I knew for a long time. It’s still a good movie though.slj3988 wrote: ↑27 Dec 2019, 10:33 Yeah but what I mean to say is part of what made Joker so interesting as a villain was you didn't know anything about him. Stripping away that mystery kind of spoils it. The movie struggled to say if you were supposed to feel sorry for him or just understand why he went bad

I personally didn't like it: I think the level of violence exhibited in the movie wasn't earned. It's as if the director went out of his way to disturb his audience, instead of focusing on his story.

And the joker has this smile I don't really understand, his face makes it difficult for me to be able to read his motives and that kept me on the edge of my seat in the duration of the whole movie
