Hey this one might actually be good! Stopped watching the trailers to avoid spoilers 
I guess Batman won't be in it at all? Should be fascinating.

Yeah the released info says there’s no Batman in it. I think the idea is kinda Gotham’s, where Joaquin is the “first” Joker, Bruce Wayne is a child or maybe not even born, and then other Jokers come along afterwards.
This “origin story” is pretty much the one portrayed in The Killing Joke novel.

Guess I will refrain from re-reading that anytime before the movie, then ?

But even that story is unconfirmed about where it all begin and the joker says in the The Killing Joke that he chooses to have multiple choices when it comes to his past.

I don't need to be inspired by an imaginary character to do bad stuff. I'm quite capable of doing bad things by my own white male self.
I mean, damn, I personally can't wait to blow up another hospital, like I did after watching the dark knight, amirite guys.

Fucking rage bait garbage. I hope these urinalists feel empty when they look in the mirror.
Watched it tonight, awesome to go out to watch a movie with the wife and friends, an experience that becomes really rare once you have kids.
It's definitely a very enthralling psychological thriller. I found it very refreshing. Great to see some originality for once, the "anti-hero" genre isn't new per se, but the way the character development is written and you see this guy going from a looser to a nihilistic psycho is really well done.
It's not for everyone, for sure, it goes into places few dare venture, for good reasons, and I applaud it for trying.
I can now understand why it got some hate from certain reviewers, because whether you want it or not, you'll find yourself empathizing and feeling pity for a "monster", because it shows you how he got there, he was made not born, and that's a real uncomfortable thought for many, for sure.

Got the chance to watch this the other night and couldnt have put it better than HP just has. I enjoyed it and found to to be a very interesting take.. but damn Joaquin Phoenix cut a crazy amount of weight to get into "shape" for this roll and had also seen certain critiques/news/feeds about this movie before hand and honestly makes me think "is this how certain companyies sell? because it works... aside from all that, felt like it was a really good movie and really made me think abt the good ol 1989 batman? with the wayne family.. personally would have love to seen more story within the Arkham Asylum^^
