Everything he said is super spoilery, and a lot DC fansites are already posting stuff like "Joker 2 opens with a Looney Tunes sequence", which is putting everyone off, and giving the wrong impression about the film's tone. Yeah even some songs on the movie were spoiled. 😆 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume he's not used to high profile exposure, and didn't realize that ANYTHING he said about a movie starring Lady Gaga, would be picked up by news sites globally, and spread right away? . Because he spoiled A LOT . Probably there was no ill intent, but common sense should've been enough for him to measure his words HEART OF EVER-FROST 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it's close to the movie release, they always come out with more details about the movie. I don't think he give any major spoiler tho. 27 minutes ago, Real Panda said: Yeah even some songs on the movie were spoiled. 😆 The songs in the Variety article were those heard on the trailer. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all, instead of battling Batman, this Joker sings and dances with Lady Gaga. “Todd took a very big swing with this whole concept and with the script, giving the sequel to ‘Joker’ this audacity and complexity,” says Gaga. “Joker: Folie à Deux” may be his most go-for-broke gamble yet. It’s a movie that kicks off with a Looney Tunes-inspired cartoon starring the Joker (courtesy of “The Triplets of Belleville” animator Sylvain Chomet) before hurtling through prison riots, courtroom faceoffs and a variety-show sequence that finds Phoenix and Gaga portraying a homicidal Sonny & Cher. Now, Arthur is locked up in a psych ward and facing the death penalty. But after meeting a fellow patient, Harleen “Lee” Quinzel (Gaga), who is obsessed with him — or, rather, his alter ego, Joker — Arthur ditches his medication and prances into a fantasy world that often plays like the MGM musicals of yesteryear on acid. As their bond intensifies, Arthur and Lee break into songs like “Get Happy,” “For Once in My Life” and “That’s Life” that convey their shifting emotions: He’s drawn to romantic ballads; she prefers music about power. That led Phillips and Silver to Harley Quinn, a supervillain first introduced in a 1990s animated “Batman” series and later brought to life by Margot Robbie in films like “Suicide Squad” and “Birds of Prey.” But as played by Gaga, this Harley may be manipulative and amoral, but she’s also more grounded. Gaga has proven that she can belt out any style of music (see her jazz albums with Tony Bennett), and Phoenix, who once channeled Johnny Cash in “Walk the Line,” is similarly gifted at carrying a tune. But Phillips and his “Joker: Folie à Deux” stars wanted to create a rawer, more unstable sound, fluctuating between euphoria and despair, even if that occasionally required singing off-key. Think this confirm that she may be kinda villain...im kinda worried how shes gonna do it kindest regards 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nessun Dorma 2,366 Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 2 hours ago, Real Panda said: Its their creative choice to do so, I just hope the off key singing doesnt sound too bad. Yeah and it makes sense for them to sing off-key since Joker and Harley Quinn are not singers. I think they’ll do it in a way that it doesn’t sound so bad! Will the GP understand this singing is for acting purposes though? We’ll see 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorehound 3,648 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 So excited! I just hope that, underneath all this colourful flamboyance and pomp, the movie is visceral, violent and disturbed. I'm fine, Ta Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
