palma 7,452 Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 He could cast the up-and-coming indie Jazz singer Lady Gaga to play the lead in his final movie in gratitude I think Is there some reason my LG7 isn't here? Has she died or something? 2 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reality 72,137 Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 I feel like there are more intelligent ways of subverting expectations though. If Phillips really wanted to be chaotic, he could've done so while still making a good movie...Otherwise, it's just a waste of everyone's time and money. And for what? Because you felt so self-important as to say "f*ck you" to the audience? Sometimes it's not all about you.

Morphine Prince 102,371 Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 Gaga is the DISEASE. The audience is obviously purging themselves of a DISEASE by not streaming DISEASE. Total genius. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OliviaRodrigoStan 4,384 Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 That is definitely not praise, and I think he's giving Todd Phillips more credit than he deserves . I do agree that Todd intentionally antagonized the first film's fanbase, with this sequel. But I also believe he legitimately tried to make a good film, and was by no means "just trolling". He very much expected for this film to be positively received, although by a different audience. It just didn't happen, lol.

If you’re gonna troll, at least make a good movie 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I need to hear the audio of the quote to get the tone. 🤖⚡️ Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I need to hear the audio of the quote to get the tone. I mean, saying Todd’s approach aligns with the spirit of the Joker feels like an endorsement of the approach as it relates to the material. Not to mention that Tarantino is probably not a huge fan of the Marvel/DC cinematic universe and the way that it and the moneyed interests behind it have monopolized blockbuster cinema, so I’d imagine he probably respects someone disrupting that trend.
