The US is a very big country and is very divided at the moment. People live in their little bubbles and lash out at anything they're not comfortable with or don't understand.
Now obviously incels are moronic but they exist for a reason and the worst thing to do is constantly bash them over and over again. Mental health has a very low priority in the US as a whole and it's quite sad because it's apparent that it's the root cause of many of the country's issues.
>but they exist for a reason
The reason is the internet. In the past if you were a loser who got no pussy you either paid for it, or you kept busy with gay little hobbies. Nowadays they gather in forums and egg each other on until one of them goes nuts.
>incels need help
They need to get real. No one expects freaks like them to get pussy, they should just pick an autistic hobby like tabletop gaming to pass the time and jerk off when they get horny like dweebs did in the past.
like 30% of young men aren't having sex anymore
that's not just geeks, like tabletop gamers or scifi/fantasy fans of the past, it's a sign of a failing society
lolbertarian individualists don't have solutions to problems like this though, they deny the existence of societal/collective problems and pretend it's just atomized individual failings
Because no one gives a frick if a movie is similar to another movie from 40 years ago, fricking homosexual moronic. If you want originality go read a fricking book. People just want to see a movie that isn't a CGI shitfest once in a while.
Why are capeshit fans so insecure? That's why Joker did so well, it flattered them by making them think they were appreciating art, but if you showed those people actual art they'd zone out because there's no comic book bullshit.
I disagree wholeheartedly with the incel and responsibility shit
But I do still think it took too much from Taxi Driver and King of Comedy
>king of comedy
Arthur never stalks Murray, or anyone really, his only "interaction" before getting INVITED to the show is a daydream where he fantasizes about being loved a son and not being famous as a comedian >taxi driver.
No vigilante delusions, not politically motivated starts killing at the end of the first act in self defense
Joker, besides being the best Hollywood movie in the late 2010s and the best capeshit ever made by far, will always be based because it exposed how many pseuds didn't watch taxi driver and king of comedy
>calls me pseud and triggered >so asshurt he keeps samegayging and the posters number is still the same >not even one minute after my post and already replied crying >doesn't even defend himself from samegayging because he knows he got caught >No other argument but the same pathetic juvenile anger from a 15 year old idiot that just watched Stalker.
pathetic. I pity you. I really do.
Why is Joker so important to you dumbasses? Do you watch anything besides capeshit? Do you even read books like you claimed before? Experience some real art and stop being so insecure.
I cannot take the Boomer take seriously that interactive and visual medium does not qualify as art. On ironically I gained more introspection and cohesive understanding of myself better from films and video games than I ever have reading books. And I read a frick ton of them. I went to a boarding school and believe you me there was a frick ton of reading over there. From Lord of the flies to 1984 to animal farm to whatever the frick else.
You talk so much about art yet seem unable to even show anything as an example or even refute anything anon said but repeat your own statement over and over claiming people are insecure when it's nothing but obvious you are the insecure one, because a person that isn't insecure doesn't care about what others do or believe. People just liked a movie, and then moved on. Get over it. You can't even argue like a normal person because you come to a discussion with so much anger that it's obvious you're just trolling to gain (You)s. I'm not even a fan of the movie myself (not that anon), but I find it extremely pathetic this, obviously young, desire of idiots like you to feel special. >inb4 another personal attack, buzzword, or ad hominem
Stop smelling your own farts and talk like a normal person. You project your own insecurity into others. You sound like an angry incel. And this isn't even an insult. Just a fact. Grow up, man. Even to hate something you need to have something more than buzzwords.

Why can they never stop talking about incels? What the frick is wrong with americans?

The internet has definitely made things worse, I agree. It's not only that though, all of Western culture is getting fricking weird
A lot of that seems to have little to do with the quality of the film.
I disagree wholeheartedly with the incel and responsibility shit

Kino corner changed my mind on that tbh
Paul Schrader has remade Taxi Driver like 20 times and no one gives him shit for it.
how come none of these people that want to ban guns want to acknowledge that incels need help
>incels need help

sorry bro
sexual liberation doesn't mean liberation from consequences

>it's a sign of a failing society
It's a sign that video games got better than pussy.
Why did anyone go see Joker? It was just Taxi Driver + King of Comedy with a comic book character. So stupid.

How in the frick is Todd Phillips an "edgelord"? He's known primarily for comedies.
He's not an edgelord he's just a juvenile nihilist.
If people use internet speak in any interaction or anything I read, I will just discard their opinion as something as not worth entertaining.
The drydick pseud has been triggered because people don't like his baby movies. Sad to see.

Lmao.
These were books that I read in school I read plenty more when I graduated. I know you've got nothing else. You're a pseudo intellectual
If you like Joker so much you should check out The Mask, seems like it'd be up your alley.
Didn't say I did. It was enjoyable. Solid 7 I think. Mask and The Mask are both pretty good

My theory on the sequel is Joker tries to get in young Bruce's head about his parents dying the night he started the revolt. Hence the title.
>Hence the title.
The title is because Harley is going to be in it.
I'll kill myself. Also, Harley is not related to him. The title means related madness often within genetic family ties.
>The title means related madness often within genetic family ties.
Only sometimes, it's definitely called that because Harley is in it.
They're not related
It was HEAVILY implied in the first movie.
It was HEAVILY implied that his mother was a liar and a nutcase.
Even if it's not factually true, Auther still believed it. So that still can play into it.
