cELLO 53,500 Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 (edited) Spoilers ahead! 🎬 There has (understandably) been quite a bit of negativity recently following the release of JFAD. Let’s share some positives, what were your favourite scenes from the film? Here are some of mine: - When Arthur fired his lawyer, kissed her, and decided to go Joker again. This scene made me feel so excited and anticipate how the story was going to unfold from there. (I loved that he learned kissing from Lee and then thought it was a normal thing to just do 😭) - Lee applying makeup in the mirror and singing World On A String. She looked and sounded delightful - Arthur signing the guard’s book - Gary Puddles’ testimony - The cartoon at the beginning was so great - Any moment where Lee was singing, especially the breakout scene with If My Friends Could See Me Now and the waltz fantasy - Arthur practicing his smiles and laughs in the car on the way to the court Edited October 6 by Cello do i need to understand a pineapple to eat a banana 1 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 (edited) The scene where Gaga says "you can do anything. You're joker". I was totally in shock when she said it, I never heard her say it in the trailers ever, not once! Edited October 6 by madmagical6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoGa 107 Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 I like Joker and Harley Show. Joker says that this should be about him and that they're not giving people what they want. It explains the entire movie. Also the stairs scene 😭 3 1 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
UWontUseMyMind 577 Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 The waltz scene...I found the photography and the colors to be so hypnotizing. Shame on them for making that scene so short, they had an incredible original song specifically composed for the movie but still decided to make a short scene out of it 8 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister G 10,029 Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 The Joker and Harley show scenes that foreshadowed what was to come in the end giving the people what they want was to see him continuously decline. I found it interesting later on as well that during another of his hallucinations during the trial when he began representing himself, he sings "The Joker" and what I appreciate about that scene...I went back and listened to the full song, the version Gaga has on "Harlequin" and verse where she says the "Queen pierces him with her sword". It ties back to what I was thinking the entire film that something about her came across as contrived and self-serving. Using him for clout and falling in love with the idea of his shadow, but when he realizes he didn't want to be his shadow and she tells him "All we had was the fantasy. We were never really going anywhere". 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson123 35,681 Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 - Folie a Deux rooftop dance. BEAUTIFUL scene, such a shame it was so short. - Joker & Harley show, the Sonny & Cher type of skit and later when it got gory. - Gonna Build A Mountain. I loved this entire scene with the tap dance and everything it goes full musical. I know people look at this and were turned off by it but that was the whole point, to take it to this ridiculous level of musical. - The first time Lee and Arthur talk to each other and she's like "I hope he blows his brains out.. and then you did." - Lee putting on her make up - Car bomb scene - Gary's testimony and the way he told Arthur that he was the only one who didn't make fun of him. - The movie night when Lee starts the fire and they run. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nessun Dorma 2,378 Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 (edited) Absolutely every Gaga scene! She had me hypnotized. The scene where Lee puts fire on the piano and crumples the sheet music was one of my favorites from her! All the scenes you mentioned were great! I also enjoyed the one where the neighbor says the movie that was made about Joker was ridiculous and then Arthur turns to Lee to ask if it was true and she denies The scene where Arthur licks the blood from his face after shaving was a good one too. We can’t deny the acting was stellar from both sides. Edit: I forgot to mention the scene where Lee breaks the store window and grabs a TV Edited October 6 by Nessun Dorma 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely a highlight. Todd should have used the whole song for it. What a waste of potential 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sepsami 17,705 Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 The scene where Artie is being interviewed and tells the interviewer he's like all the rest of them, like Murray. And accuses him of just wanting sensation. That's what the joker character is all about to me. They want sensation? He'll show them what sensation is. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
