not so much a comic book movie complaint as a general complaint about Hollywood, but point taken
i'm cautiously optimistic about this movie and think the musical angle could be cool

That take would totally overlook what made this Joker so good.
It didn’t seem like a formulaic comic book movie. It was about mental illness and how it’s both sad, and scary when real people experience it.
I loved it. The trailer posted above captures that same sentiment- that this guy is trapped in his own mental illness, and has no coping skills to deal with it.

Wrong take. When people ask for creativity they want to see the stories they know done right in film. Where's the Dick Grayson film? Hes way more interesting than the Joker.
John Stewart? Martian Manhunter would have made for a better off kilter film.
This looks dumb. What's the appeal here?

I'm not really all that excited for the movie since I thought the first Joker movie was a so so flick about mental illness w/the Joker IP slapped over it but anyone who says a movie that turns the Joker into a 2 hour musical lacks creativity is never going to be happy w/another comic book movie being made anyway.

Like the first film, there’s nothing related to the comics about this. It’s a vehicle designed to use comic book names to draw in money for an original story because this wouldn’t make money any other way.
