Is Joker really even an incel in this movie? I've only really paid attention to a couple of trailers but it seems like it's somewhat following the Killing Joke background more then anything

Apparently he can't get laid and the ladies think he's a creep and he gets picked on in the 70s afaik. He's proto Incel, Ur-incel if you will

Orange Crush Rush posted:Is Joker really even an incel in this movie? I've only really paid attention to a couple of trailers but it seems like it's somewhat following the Killing Joke background more then anything Not really. Looks like it's directly harkening back to poo poo like Taxi Driver more than anything, and regardless, comic books have always adapted their characters and narratives to address contemporary attitudes and issues so I feel like this isn't really all that controversial. Regardless, having some kind of complex over the "integrity" of how they portray comic book characters is stupid as poo poo. Part of the reason Batman/Superman/Captain America bore the gently caress out of me is the obsession with keeping their core traits and attributes intact. It seems villains are altered to suit times and sensibilities while the heroes moulder off in shitland to be forever tedious and unimaginative. What I'm saying is that it's good they're heavily loving with the character and making a grounded, relevant portrayal over sticking to some rigidly established version of the character.

He's a mentally ill disaffected loner/loser/social outcast. While all of that is true of incels, in order to actually be an incel his rage must specifically concern his inability to get women. All incels are angry loners, but not all angry loners are incels.

Pfffff, what are incels gonna do. Run people over with their mobility scooters? Maybe tip their fedoras at them really hard? Perhaps even quoting dawkins at people? Pathetic.

The real joke is how they keep making these Saturday morning cartoon characters more and more serious and dark with each iteration. They will never make another masterpiece like the Joker's boner crimes, or the 60s TV show. Or just a dumbass comedy like Batman and Robin. They can do that in Lego movies, but otherwise people just wouldn't accept it. And that's terrible.

Just what we needed, another tin can "controversy" about a mass-market superhero film that definitely doesn't seem designed to distract from DC's horrible box office batting average. I look forward to seeing this movie to stick it to self-righteous activist critics or not seeing it to stick it to entitled white misogynists

I know it's not a Batman movie but lets face it, a Joker movie is a Batman movie. Any time batmans not on screen people should be asking 'wheres batman'

I for one am glad that the incel youth will have a new pop culture role model to look up to that isn't Anakin loving Skywalker

Mr. Freeze using the TAS backstory is probably the only one that could make for a successful standalone. Brute Hole Force fucked around with this message at 23:33 on Sep 25, 2019 |

He kisses a lady in the trailer and she seems to accept the advances. Really he's involuntarily insignificant. An ininsig if you will

I bet the after credit scene is him getting arrested and sent to Arkham Asylum. Enter Dr. Harley Quinn. Pops a boner. Fade to black. e: she is played by the same actress who plays his mom. Sierra Nevadan fucked around with this message at 00:04 on Sep 26, 2019 |
