Scorsese called marvel movies theme park movies for kids.

LoL! And yet the franchise is a Hollywood behemoth. If the formula works, then why bother changing it? Much respect for Scorcese though.

that boring film? Leto worked with a shitty script and barely got any reasonable screen time, yeah he looked liked a gangstar though.. guess we all have a way we want out joker to look like.... Phonex wasn't it for me at all.... Movie was just over hyped.. after seeing the movie I was wondering why the whole buzz abt it being so dark and bloody that it may incite crime and cus havock... It's not even 30% as bloody as John wick..... I will pick prestige and inception over this movie without thinking twice.

This current Joker movie is a character study on mental illness and how the society treats the mentally ill. It is not the Batman vs Joker issh. It is not an action movie. It is a movie that makes you see how the society have abandoned the people that needs it help. So, if you had that kind of expectation of an action flick or superhero movie, you may feel disappointed. Just the same way some people were expecting Batman to show in this film.

On the bolded, it shows that the critics were biased and were all out against this movie. They said it was going to incite violence, they said people will get shot and killed at the cinemas. They said all sort of lies just to bring it down but truth will always prevail.

What you feel is good might be bad for others. For example, I feel Starwars, Endgame, Frozen, are all overhyped and yet to others, they a masterpiece. Everyone to his/her opinion

Minemrys:

you see, joker has shown every0ne the critics' true colors. Let's wind back a year ago. No one dared cross the critics. I mean what happened? Did their balls drop off?

People knew that the critics were biased but they ignored.

This time around, the critics didn't even hide their biasness. Some even came out on Twitter to brag that they will bring it down no matter what.

That's why they started with "Joker is too violent", " joker is for white incels", "watch joker and get shot in cinemas" etc.

Yesterday, some where saying that people should not go and watch it as it is just a cigarette advert. Another said that joker hates black women and black people should not watch it.

The bias was too damn obvious than in the past

I think what Scorsese is trying to say is that, MCU movies are now a juggernaut but they are too childish(theme park). This we all know to be true.

Fox back then use to do R rated marvel movies, Logan was outstanding same with deadpool despite their R rated sticker.

Disney on the other hand doesn't want to take risk and do things that are innovative and different. They prefer to do the same old thing because no matter what, children will force their parents to come out to watch them thereby generating and making more money.

This is the same issue Lucas is currently having with Disney's Star wars. Lucas has gone on camera to complain about how Disney turned his idea to a childish joke. Am glad that star wars fans are smarter and making Disney feel the heat after turning the franchise into a comedy.

I hope Sony grows some balls and does something genuine with their own part of marvel because as it stands, the MCU style is now getting too monotonous

why are u playing safe? This m0vie will touch that benchmark. And yes, any0ne can quote it. The themes in joker are what adults would want to revisit again and again. Trust me.

Lol, am not playing safe.

I just don't know how it will touch a billion without China. Its not impossible though.

It will get to $800m-$900m but $1bn will be too far yet great news for me if it gets there

Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by TheKingIsHere: 10:46am On Oct 14, 2019

I remember saying that Disney is destroying the marvel characters with their comedic bullshit, you guys thought I was just hating.

Now, Chris Hemsworth has confessed that Mark Ruffalo complained that Disney is destroying marvel characters with their childish crap. It is so obvious.

The same hulk that was a monster and tagged strongest avenger is now a comedian.

wasn't joker falling for a black woman? Am n0t understanding. Did he kill his black therapist? Seriously? N0w i get why age of ultr0n got an above 70percent rating.

i d0n't think any0ne who has g0ne through what the joker went thr0ugh in the m0vie wouldn't go crazy in real life. Even if they d0n't go killing people. Like, the scene where joker locked himself inside a fridge to cool off, it was so damn believable.

Did you by chance read the original 60s Hulk comics? Ragnarok's version of Hulk was easily the best film version to date. A lot of people loved him. The way he started punching himself in the quinjet was kind of emotional to be honest. It was if Banner and Hulk were punching themselves, a great way to relate to Stan Lee's original ideas surrounding one's self worthlesness.

At the end of the day, to each his own. But its pretty weird to take one person's opinion as justification for the supposed objectivity of yours. It's called confirmation bias.

Everyone complained at how hulk was portrayed I Ragnarok. They completely made him look stupid, even Endgame had the same hulk problem.

Disney has successfully destroyed Drax, Thor, hulk, Thanos, Spider-Man, Loki etc

I guess Winter Soldier did not just have the complexity and maturity of Shazam

Define risk. MCU Phase 1 was a risk. AntMan was a risk. GOTG likewise.

the MCU style is now getting too monotonous
I think Infinity War proves that being "monotonous" can be a strength more than a weakness. Otherwise, it should have flopped tonewise if all the characters being juggled were all tonally abstract from each other. See BVS for reference.

In as much as the MCU has a formula, i could still argue that,

First Avenger= war movie

Ant Man= heist movie (like Ocean's Eleven)

Winter Soldier= Bourne-esque spy film

Guardians= space adventure (like Star wars)

MCU movies in my opinion are various genres that just happen to be CBMs

This is not even remotely true. LoL.

As for the Hulk thing, i know many peeps both IRL and on the internet that loved his portrayal in Ragnarok especially. Couldn't that just be proof of differing tastes and expectations from movies? Quit talking in absolutes.

1. hahaha is hulk smart before?

2.1. Drax was not popular before GOTG, but now he is popular, so Disney did not destroy his character
2.2. Thor popularity and comicbooks sales has increased after her movies. so Disney did not destroy his character.
2.3. Thanos became the best villian ever before of infinity war and endgame. so Disney did not destroy his character
2.4. Spider-Man this must be a joke undecided

, so Disney did not destroy his character
2.5. Loki another joke, so Disney did not destroy his character
2.6. etc, so Disney did not destroy his character
