I'm Convinced The Hate For Joker 2 Is Exactly What The Movie Wanted
Joker Folie A Deux is a movie which accurately grossed out 121 Million Dollars Worldwide. Because of its failure at the box office it is going to come to streaming platforms soon (At October 29 At Blu-Ray, DVD etc.)
The Movie is supposed to lose around 200 Million Dollars because of its high budget.
So This is a new theory going around that the JOKER 2 MOVIE WAS MADE TO BE HATED BY PEOPLE. Yeah So People Are Basically Saying That
"Joker: Folie à Deux is not the continuation I hoped we would get for Arthur Fleck's story. Joker's ending sets up Arthur to fully transform into his Joker persona. That scene with Phoenix's character making a smile out of the blood on his face while standing on top of a car as his followers cheered made it seem like Arthur and the Joker were one and the same. However, Joker: Folie à Deux became a story all about subverting the audience's expectations, and by taking that stance, I'm convinced the creators knew the hate the movie has received was coming".
And it significant ly made it worse by stating that:
'While the Joker franchise has featured action sequences, deaths, and Joker-like situations, the two movies are about the character of Arthur Fleck and what makes him tick, not about his exploits as the Joker. I was very interested in getting an origin story for one of DC's most iconic characters, as the Joker is not known for having a set backstory. 2019's Joker did a great job of showing how the world pushed Arthur to his limit, and the character simply snapped after not being able to take it anymore!
Well This Theory Seems Some Unkind Of True Because Todd Phillips The Director Of Joker And Joker 2 is seculuded himself on a ranch on the opening weekend of the movie
HE KNEW THE MOVIE IS GOING TO BE BAD.
anyways while Arthur's struggles were touched on in the first movie, he was always overlooked by others until he became the Joker and murdered people. It seems as though that was when he really mattered. Joker: Folie à Deux plays with that dual role within Joaquin Phoenix's character. However, the sequel really hits it home that the flashy Joker action and storyline that fans were expecting was never what it was going to be about, as the main story in Joker: Folie à Deux revolves around Arthur Fleck's emotional state, his trial, and how he deals with his sense of self.
