      Ladder 49 is among my favorites of his, but he's had a lot of good ones. Gladiator of course, ladder 49, walk the line, the village, and joker. I haven't seen most of his others but I assume he's at least decent in them.

For instance, his relationship to Sophie is a fantasy to him. Some people have asked me, ‘Was she killed?’ [Director Todd Phillips] makes it clear she wasn’t killed.

    i love the subtle detail of the use of stairs in this film.
    at the beginning, we witness Arthur climb UP many stairs, and slowly through the course of the movie, the director decides to only show Arthur descending those same stairs, as if to showcase his mental state -- UP when trying to be an upright, moral citizen.. DOWN when he is spiraling into chaos. and in the final act Arthur is literally dancing down them. super clever.

    The script has some interesting details:
    "This story takes place in its own universe. It has no connection to any of the DC films that have come before it. We see it as a classic Warner Bros. movie. Gritty, intimate and oddly funny, the characters live in the real world and the stakes are personal. Although it is never mentioned in the film, this story takes place in the past. Let's call it 1981."
    So, a sequel may be in the works, but don't expect it to tie into any of the other DC movies.

  • @CybrSlydr
    @CybrSlydr 2 года назад +28

    For me, this movie was incredibly showing how we as humans need connection with other people, relating and interacting with them.
    In the beginning of the movie, we see that due to his injuries as a child, he just never developed the skills to normally interact and connect with people on a social or emotional level. He's taking notes, trying to dissect and piecemeal what that is so he can have it, so he can seem more normal. But it just doesn't work for him - we're watching someone who wants to but can't. He's so desperately searching for that interpersonal relationship but is unable to do it.
    Seeing him as we do and knowing everything he's going through, his attempts at being "normal" with the finger gun to the head, going to the comedy club, etc. just shows that he's not mean, he's not evil, he's just trying to fit in, he's trying to learn how to be a person. But he just can't make it stick and because of that, it comes across as creepy and unsettling to everyone else around him, further ostracizing him from what he needs most.

    That scene on the train, with the mother getting angry he made her kid laugh? I've had that exact thing happen to me on our local transit, some years ago. I was trying to joke with this kid and the mother became angry at me for causing the kid to "act up".
    I have experienced many of the horrible things that happened to Arthur in this film - not the murder, of course, but the abuse he suffered, the mistreatment because he's mentally ill, the inability of others to understand him or understand the fact that he suffers from a mental illness. I am diagnosed schizoaffective, which essentially means bipolar and schizophrenia, and people put off by me have made my life miserable for as long as I can remember.
    Arthur is right in that the worst part about being mentally ill is that people get angry at you when you behave like you're mentally ill. Even professionals who know you are ill will get upset when you act like it - as if you are aware and choosing to behave irrationally. I have informed nurses, prior to a medical procedure, that I will be delusional and confused when I wake up and they still get angry at me when I'm delusional and confused.

    As a person who has been hit by multiple cars, the immediate response is to get away from the danger area. After that you assess the situation and then the pain sets in so you assess what is wrong with you. Thankfully the worst I got was a sprained wrist and an untreatable dent in my upper right thigh, but you are right with your reaction. Getting hit by a car at any speed is no walk in the park.

    This movie is a good litmus test for what your own personal jumping off point is.
    You’re allowed to empathize with Arthur to a point. But the director intended to push that to the extreme so that people will question when enough is enough.

    One thing that's easy to miss: the first time Bruce sees Arthur he slides down a pole before walking over. This is a reference to the Batpole in the old Batman TV series.
    I don't think he killed Sophie. It's not his style. He killed people for revenge, and in the end, to create chaos. He wouldn't kill people just for the sake of it. Remember that he let Gary go after killing Randall.
    One thing I like about this movie is that it shows evil coming from somewhere. Arthur didn't start off evil. He was driven to it by a combination of mental illness and a toxic society. It's not just the lack of social services. So many people were cruel to him, sometimes for no reason other than their own amusement.
    I also like how the movie turns on its head the cliche of the guy with a girlfriend who's way more attractive than him.

  • @CaptainAmercia

    0:26 Yeah you're actually correct in the Flashpoint storyline that was created when Flash tried to go back in time to save his mum which created a new timeline in which Bruce died in Crime Alley instead of his parents. Martha with the lost of her child went mad and became the Joker while Thomas Wayne became Batman one who used guns and killed. Thomas Wayne wore a pretty cool suit one I highly recommend looking up.
    Unlike other DC Universe's that are disconnected from the main Earth the Flashpoint Earth was an alternate timeline closer to what happened in Back to the Future. Once Flash fixed this timeline this created a whole new universe starting the New 52 Comic's pretty much a reboot.
    Earth-2 which is the Golden age Earth a classic rendition of characters before the 1950s Sliver Age. This was the mainstream DC universe from the 1930s to the 1950s being replaced by a new Earth. DC introduced the Silver Age hero's like Barry Allen as Flash and Hal Jordan as Green Lantern but as they already had counterparts in the comic's DC decided to set them on a new Earth called Earth-1 while the Goldarn Age hero's were from Earth-2 where The Justice League of America existed while Earth-1 had The Justice League which would come later. Earth-1 is pretty much the version of these characters most people know of along with where the mainline DC stories take place becoming the mainstream DC universe.
    Earth-2 the universe in which the 1939 Batman is from a universe was kept alive by writers throughout the years even when the Main Earth-1 comic's were being pointed out Earth-2 stories were still being told. Funny enough there was a time when DC didn't inform readers what comic's took place in which universe as both Earth-1 and Earth-2 had Batman and Superman with the same designs with comic's releasing jumping between both universes.
    This change in September 1961 with Flash of Two Earths when older Golden Age Flash Garrick meet Silver Age Flash Barry Allen's when Flash crosses over into the different Earth. Another funky aspect is Jay's Flash from Earth-2 is a comic book character in Earth-1 a character Barry knows and looks up too which is strange as if Jay is a comic book character wouldn't that mean that Superman and Batman are comic book characters as well even though they exist in Earth-1 as year hero's. Anyways this is the first time Earth-1 or Earth-2 are mentioned.
    Earth-2 has many differences to the more mainstream such as Batman marrying Catwoman retiring as Batman and having a daughter who would later become Huntress, Helena Wayne. Dick Grayson is also the only Robin in this universe no Jason Tod or Tim Drake just Grayson. Wayne would only return to the role one last time after learning he was dying of cancer in order to stop Bill Jensen, who had been granted super-powers by the sorcerer Frederic Vaux.
    Having failed to arrest Jensen, Wayne took a Batman costume from the Gotham Museum and decided to attack Jensen directly as Batman. The two fought until Jensen realized that he could not deter Wayne in his attempt to stop Jensen. Jensen decided to destroy Batman and himself with a mystical blast which succeeded in killing Wayne, revealing to the world that he was the original Batman.After tracking down and defeating Vaux with the aid of the Justice Society, the Earth-Two Doctor Fate erased completely from all people on Earth-Two the knowledge that Batman and Bruce Wayne were one and the same person. Wayne's daughter Helena and Grayson would continue protecting Gotham City as the Huntress and Robin until they were killed during the Crisis on Infinite Earths.Robin of Earth-2 actually met a younger Dick Grayson from Earth-1 along with Red Son Batman a universe where Batman was Russian which convinced Robin that Batman wasn't a person but a symbol leading to him taking up the mantle of Batman.
    Earth-2 was recreated after Crisis on Infinite Earth's which also created a Prime Earth which was pretty much Earth-1 but with elements from other universes such as characters and cities from comic's DC bought and wanted to add them to the DC universe. With the new canon post Crisis on infinite Earth's Batman and many of the Earth-2 hero's died during Darkseid's invasion but alot of the past I mentioned like Batman getting married to Catwoman and having Helena Wayne this all still happened it's just how Batman died that was changed along with the events themselves and the outcome.
    Now we get to our point on Thomas Wayne. So in Earth-2 it's revealed that Thomas actually survived the mugging all those years ago and took up the mantle of Batman to honor his son and attempt to atone for his own failures after Bruce's death. So yeah there's been two cases of Thomas being Batman in the Alternated Flashpoint Timeline of Prime Earth (Main DC Earth) and Thomas Wayne of Earth-2 who secretly survived.

    7:15 Arthur's face here is actually a sign of Childhood Trauma. Often children who have been abused will smile and appear friendly even when under the stress of criticism or verbal abuse. Basically to appear as non confrontational as possible to avoid a situation similar to the abuse they sustained from happening. It's essentially a coping mechanism the body learns to avoid danger. This can make its way into adulthood as most coping mechanisms or reactions of a mentally or physically abused child do.

There was a scene cut from the film where they revealed she was unharmed and alive. Also, this film borrows from two of Martin Scorcese's films, "Taxi Driver" and "The King of Comedy" that are definitely worth seeing. In "King of Comedy" Deniro plays a struggling comedian, who kidnaps the host of "The Tonight Show" to get his act on TV. It was great that this time, he's the host.

"The worst part of having a mental disorder is people expect you to act as though you don't" -- too fucking true. "Just go outside and take a walk if you're depressed, you'll feel better. I've been depressed before for like a month but I ate well and exercised and I got over it, so just get over it. Don't talk to me about it, it's so depressing!"

    The lingering questions for this movie are, what was real and what was imagined. The broader message is about mental illness, yes. But as far as this story, it was purposely made vague as to which murders were actually committed and which were fantasy. Or was he always institutionalized because of his illness, and the only true murder he committed was the therapist at the end? if there is a sequel--which is the rumor--i would think some of these questions will be answered, particularly if they indeed fold it into the Batman universe.

    For the people who are familiar with Scorcese's "King of Comedy", you realize how much of an inspiration that Scorcese had on this film (De Niro was in that movie as well). If you haven't seen it, and you like Joker, I can't recommend that movie too highly.
    One thing I will say is that while New York State, and NYC in particular has excellent mental health programs, as compared with almost anywhere else in the country, when you have to deal with government institutions like Social Security, Snap, Medicare, Medicaid, etc., as well as the various housing services, if you were not mentally ill beforehand, you'll likely be driven crazy simply by all the bureaucracy. There can be so many roadblocks to getting and maintaining necessary help, and when you have a mental illness, as bad as it is for anyone, it's far worse to deal with. If you can get some kind of a case worker to help you, that CAN be incredibly helpful. Unfortunately, I know that not all case workers are created equal. Years ago, I got a case worker, and I could never get her on the phone when I actually needed help. I also know people who've had really horrific experiences with the system. I know one person who literally lost ALL his benefits because his employer asked him to work a little overtime, and that put his income just a tiny bit over the limit. He worked one hour overtime, and lost everything.
    That said, fortunately, MOST people do not have as bad an experience as the character in this film.

    Neighbour isn't dead. There is a cut-scene, where she is sitting in Front of the TV watching Arthur in the Show. It was cut, because Todd Philips wanted every Scene in the Movie presenting Arthur's View.

    One of the best movies of all time. What makes it great is that if you know nothing about Batman etc, it's still an amazing movie all on it's own.

      I hate it when people accuse me of not understanding something when in actuality I just don't like it or agree with it. I don't need anything explained to me. There isn't anything in the movie not to get. But whatever. I did bark up your tree after all. We don't have to discuss the movie.

    I think the entire movie was all in his mind.(with the exception of his conversation with the doctor at the end. Him killing her is in his head too IMO) His past, his condition, everything. At the beginning of the movie George said that he felt sorry for Arthur. That's what the story wants you to feel. It wants you to sympathize with Arthur. There's a lot of people that create scenarios in their head. Getting the girl, being successful, being understood. Even tragic scenarios. Mix that with a character with a great mental illness and you have what we just watched.

    Simone isn't entirely wrong about them being brothers. The movie intentionally makes the viewer wonder, even with the discovery of the adoption papers. The biggest thing the movie tosses at the audience to instill doubt is the shot of the photo that Arthur looks at. It's of Penny, and it says, "Love your smile, T.W." I think you're meant to entertain the idea that Thomas Wayne used his power to fabricate adoption papers, etc.
    Edit: Okay, Simone brings this up at the end, so obviously you were already aware. But I personally didn't catch any similarity between the handwriting. Even if it was similar, I'm pretty sure it's STILL meant to cast doubt in the audience's mind.
    About George's question about the neighbor: When I saw this in the theaters, I assumed he had killed the neighbor. I've since read comments that the director definitively said he didn't - so I guess that ends that debate.

      Exactly. I think George or whatever the male reactors name is came up with that being the same hand writing in his mind (likes he’s nuts too lol). I didn’t recognize being the same and have never heard anyone else think they were same hand writing.

    Nothing about this movie is DC canon. Though there are a few homages and references to some stories from the comics, it is very much its own thing. The comics canon also has a habit of being altered and changed over the years, especially since they'd have to keep telling new stories over 70+ years since the character's creation. So there really isn't one definitive canon to adhere to.

    When this movie came out next day I obsessively started painting that Joker elevator shot with the red coat. Ignored everything and everyone for about a week and it was the best thing I ever made. ❤️
    Really Love that mirror dance scene. The symbolism was perfect.
