Joker 2

It looks a little more promising now that I've seen the trailer, but I'm still really not happy that it's a musical. Maybe I'll get lucky and it'll turn out to be one of the rare exceptions to my musical hatred.

I'm interested, musicals aren't a top priority for my movie watching choices but this has potential.

It makes a little more sense meow. If they are having shared hallucinations(?) and an experience, without it looking the way musicals are usually shot, I can see it working well.

The jarring shift from performance to acting is usually the dealbreaker and this may not have that. I’m thinking the Copa Cabana scene from Goodfellas for some reason.

What a gutsy, interesting thing to do.

That’s pretty much my take right there. But I’m glad Gaga is in it. It’s a good fit imo. I guess I’ll watch it in the end. But it doesn’t sound that promising overall.

Gaga as Quinn is gonna be amazing.

A little more promising with this new trailer, but I still have my reservations.

Has anyone seen this? Is it any good?

It doesn’t hit wide release until October 4

Yeah but the early word from the festival circuit isn't very positive at all.
