I hope I don't offend any comic book fans here, because I'm not saying every fan is bad, but comic book fans are notoriously misogynistic. This isn't really a surprise—if anything, I'm surprised they are not being worse. Granted, I didn't look too much because social media is pretty toxic in general.

And I'm not bashing Gaga's looks—I think she's very pretty and frankly never understood why some people dragged her looks. But she's never been seen as a bombshell or conventionally gorgeous by the GP. Playing a part that was previously played by a younger, considered to be one of the most beautiful bombshells in Hollywood was always going to result in misogynistic backlash for any actress.

*That's not say every single person objecting to Gaga is being a misogynist, some may genuinely not like her and some may just be caught up on Margot (even though it's a different universe). But I suspect the misogyny is a big part of it.

*And monsters really need to leave Margot alone...it doesn't help when some of the big accounts get snarky about her.

I'm curious if they'll move the release date up, especially as there aren't a lot of DC films scheduled to be released soon....

It was expected tbh. As someone who's been in the comic book fandom for a long time, you unfortunately have many close-minded individuals. There will always be people who will question Gaga, her role in this movie, whether or not she should've been cast, whether or not she looks like the character, whether or not the idea of a musical is good, whether or not a sequel for Joker should've been made in the first place, etc., etc. I mean, there's literally people complaining that she's doesn't look like Harley Quinn from the comics, despite the fact that this is an Elseworlds story and therefore isn't strictly beholden to the comics.

All that said, I have tremendous faith that her performance will prove people wrong. You'll inevitably have people who complain about the movie because literally every comic book movie gets sh*t on by some section of the fandom, but I think this'll truly be a career-changing role for her.

I wish Gaga could star in some TV-series in this 18-month period between Joker wrapped and Joker theatrical release.

I think people are just so used to seeing the hottest of people playing comic book characters that they’re surprised Gaga is playing not just a comic book character but one of the most sexualized ones… which is weird because it’s not like Joaquin is your typical comic book hunk, you’d think they’d get the message lol. I’ve mentioned it on DC forums too, because like… Joaquin is not Henry Cavil, so why should his Harley be Margot Robbie? This DC universe is all about the grit and reality physical aspect, not everyone has perfect abs or big tits and fits traditional beauty standards.

Given how those films performed, I increasingly feel like these people might be a highly vocal minority. :rip: Comic book people are also very weird and passionate though - like same vibe of Tumblr circa SuperWhoLock, but with misogyny. It would be like if they were making a movie adaptation of Supernatural, and fans being angry about whoever was playing Jenson Ackles character, when IRL, no one is that passionate either way. In any case, my 17-year old cousin grew up watching Margot's Harley, but is super stoked about Gaga's Harley, so you can't really take these people's opinion to heart when there are normal, reasonable people out there. 

Also, since we're on the topic of stans: I have to say, the Adam Driver stans >>>>>>>>>> Joaquin's stans. I noticed the Adam stans were far more supportive vs the Joaquin stans (a lot of them seem to think she's going to completely take over the second film, so there is a competitive aspect to their hate).
