Knowing that Batman repeatedly beats the crap out of this guy who's apparently had a psychotic break takes some of the fun out of it.

Now gimme some depressing backstory on all the random henchmen John Wick kills.

I think it looks good. Joaquin Phoenix looks perfect for the role.

i was pleasantly surprised by the trailer. certainly aspects of it that could work, i.e. the grittiness and the suits remind me of the 70s era joker.

i suppose i'm tired of origin stories though.

im in the same boat, but the joker's origin story is one i've always been intrigued by.

i wasn't a DC comics reader so i don't know the history

thing is, there's really not a canon origin story. one of the mystique's to joker is that he doesn't have one

DeNiro, Marc Maron and half of the cast of Atlanta (Brian Tyree Henry and Zazie Beetz) sounds a lot more fun than that trailer makes it look.
