RAMROD 102,154 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 The first movie made $1 Billion and earned few Oscars. So the sequel will be getting super high expectations to repeat these, or else it will be known as flops. And since Gaga is major new addition in this sophomore movie, she will be the blacksheep for any mishaps. Comments and scrutiny by the OGHs, comic book fans, general public, Professional reviewers, & journalists alike will be expected. Are we as Gaga fanbase ready to face that comes October? Will we able to keep the faith and continues to lift up Gaga, and be her first defense when needed, and believing she will bring the movie to the next level?! What do you feel personally amidst all these exciting things going on? Are you ready for all that storms coming your way?! (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ✧*:・゚ 𝚍𝚊𝚗𝚌𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚒𝚗 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚜𝚑𝚊𝚍𝚘𝚠 𝚘𝚏 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚗𝚒-𝚒-𝚒-𝚒𝚐𝚑𝚝...!

Reality 69,598 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Yeah, I feel like some people don't yet understand just how messy this era is probably going to be Even the inception of the first movie was a bit controversial. People were like "Why do we need a Joker movie without Batman?", "Joaquin Phoenix is the Joker? Can he live up to Heath Ledger?", "What connections will it have to the DCEU?", etc. Then the movie itself was controversial and divisive, though the box office and awards nominations/wins solidified it as a resounding success. Joker 2 is fighting even more of an uphill battle. You got people who didn't like the first movie, people who think a sequel isn't necessary, people who don't like musicals, and people who only see Gaga as a pop star and not a viable actress. Not only that, but there will be comparisons of the box office and awards nominations/wins from the first Joker. I'm very confident that the movie will be good, and at the very least, vastly different and more interesting than the comic book movies we've been getting for the past few years. That said, I do worry about the conversation surrounding the film and just how aggressive people might be to hate/defend it 𝐼 𝒥𝒰𝒮𝒯 𝒩𝐸𝐸𝒟 𝒜 𝒟𝒪𝒮𝐸 𝒪𝐹 𝒯𝐻𝐸 𝑅𝐼𝒢𝐻𝒯 𝒮𝒯𝒰𝐹𝐹 15 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryansamonster 1,460 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 We’ve all witnessed the decline in comic book movies lately. The box office just ain’t where it used to be. I’m not expecting this one to gross $1B, just being realistic. If this movie serves quality, that’s most important. Margot Robbie has already shut down comparisons and I expect Gaga will do the exact same. I don’t think anyone is expecting Joaquin to be nominated for an Oscar AGAIN for the same role. Gaga could be the spice this one needs to stand out from the last one 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robo Ga 14,887 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 I'm glad you posted this. I am getting the sense that the fanbase as a whole is underestimating just how absolutely giant the Joker era will be. It's a gamble, but Gaga ain't afraid to take a risk. And regardless how it plays out with the GP, I know she will have given her heart and soul to the role. She does everything at 110%. And as she said in her Oscars acceptance speech, "This is hard work." That quote always stuck with me. One thing about Gaga, is that she puts in the work, fully. Critics can always talk s***, but if you put your heart and soul into a project, blood sweat and tears (as she always does), it is something to be proud of. And more likely than not, that work will translate into something incredible. Between Gaga, Joaquin, Todd, and all of the other extremely talented people involved, I think that it will be an unforgettable finished product. I am so excited to see what they've created for us. Sometimes you need to risk it all to create something truly great. 🤖⚡️ 2 1 5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roughhouse Dandy 7,225 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Y'all.... I can't say too much about it but if they stuck close to their first completed draft? This has the potential for controversy way more intense than the first one. Just be prepared, sistren. Unless they re-wrote significantly (which is still v possible) people are gonna be out for blood. This is my Hannah Montana™️ lipgloss. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally care if this will drives Gaga into depression again like ARTPOP era does. And especially crucial since she doesn't have figure like Tony Bennett anymore now.
