    First Joker movie budget: $55 million. Billion dollar blockbuster.
    Joker sequel budget: $200 million. Weak opening that is predicted to not even make $50M overall.
    This is a BIG part of why Hollywood movies are in the dire state that they are nowadays.
    Movies get overinflated budgets way over what they should then when it flops, the effects are more severe.

      They just did what audience didn't want, but also it feels like the sequel is the most realistic continuation and true to the character of Arthur. He could never be a comicbook prince of crime, and when at the end he says that he is basically fed up with the act, people walk away from him, and this is a mirror to the audience, because after watching the first movie and entirety of the second one, learning who Arthur is, they still wanted him to be THE Joker, after all of what is shown and knowing that he puts on Joker as a mental armor, they still don't care for him and only want a theme park of carnage and killing as THE Joker. I'm not a big fan of this direction of the sequel maybe, and also i think he shouldnt've been singing but he should've been only dancing, singing ruins the style of his joker, takes away all the chilly mistery, but this is still the most realistic continuation. If in the sequel they'd establish him as a typical Joker, it wouldn't make sense, Arthur as a person can't carry this out. As much as people hate on it right now, some will come to understand that this is a true portrayal of him as a person, he can't be something you want him to be.

    Here in Brazil, the Joker attracts a lot of people to the cinema, mainly because of its social commentary. Todd Phillips didn't realize that people already knew the Joker was a villain, but the social critiques in the film were interesting and important. However, he chose to shield himself from a toxic culture. But that toxic culture ends up taking over anything, even *The Matrix*. It's mistake after mistake.

    Julie Andrew’s “couldn’t” sing in Princess Diaries 2 it was actually her first time singing in YEARS when she sang in PD2 she also sang with Gaga at the Oscar’s in 2015. I think she potentially still has it in her. Also idk how fans of the original two movies, myself included, will feel if it goes too adult with the humor. I like how the first two are just warm and fuzzy Garry Marshall classics. I heard he had a script written before he passed, I’m still hoping the use it or, if they need to, adapt the script of his so he’s still a part of the third movie

    Last Jedi was praised by the critics, but was largely hated by fans, that’s not debatable. Yes it reached a billion, largely on the goodwill of the Force Awakens, but it clearly set the ball rolling on diminishing returns for Star Wars projects ever since.

      The Star Wars fans took out their disappointment and other feelings on _Solo,_ and mainstream audiences didn't show up either. Of course after establishing _Star Wars_ as something to see at Christmas, they don't open _Solo_ at that time. And I think the movie _Jumani: Welcome to the Jungle_ functioned as an alternative to seeing a disappointing Star Wars movie another time.

    So I'm having a busy week and I'm only gotten to watch the first half an hour or so of this movie but I have to agree with you Grace so far what I've seen has me drooling and salivating to get back to finish watching the film. When you said it was getting bad ratings in the beginning of this segment My jaw dropped because I thought I was looking forward to watching a bad ending, which Ken ruin a movie. But it's a relieve to hear you say that you like the rest of the movie now I can get back to looking forward to watching the rest of it

    Good stream today. I saw Joker 2 for my Birthday. It’s tomorrow, but I went to the fan event. Thought it was really good and dark with some nicely staged action. I’m glad there won’t be a third, though. But there’s been so many good Joker performances over the decades.

    Watched Salem's Lot last night. It was already on my agenda but moved it up on my what to watch list after Grace's review. It was a really good movie and I can see why Grace loved it. But if I am being honest there were a couple of obvious plot details that didn't line up or didn't ever come to fruition. So I can see why a critic would take off points sort to speak. It is almost like someone just said just put it on Max and don't worry about the editing and reshoots. Still, not bad all as the RT scores may lead you to believe and definitely worth watching as Grace has already said.
    About to watch Grace's other recommendation from a week ago Apartment 7A. Horror for breakfast!!!

    Clearly, I am not in the mainstream. The cinematography and performances, alone, make for a unique and worthwhile experience. Meanwhile, safe, by-the-books, standard CGI fare never gets lambasted to this degree. Proves it's not always worthwhile, in today's world, to take big swings and run the risk of coming up short. Francis Ford Coppola's wallet would probably agree.
