I don't think anyone thought it would be any different ever since it was announced that it would be a musical and would feature Harley Quinn. If Hollywood wants to keep "owning the chuds" by continuing to set themselves on fire, I am all for it.
We don't need no water, let the motherfucker burn.
Every single bit of information that came out about it demonstrated more and more that it was made for a completely different audience than the original. An original that functioned entirely as a self-contained piece and left very little actual wriggle room for a sequel that didn't change massively.
Yeah, and I suppose the character is ultimately somewhat meaningless without his role as anchor/mirror/foil to Batman…
Though with the first movie I almost thought they pulled off an “antihero for our societal collapse” / “a sick society will breed sick citizens” angle, if they absolutely had to “make their own ‘real’ movie and just call it Joker to get it made” (like the video reveals was a motivation of the director, I had never heard any of that). But you’re right lmao the musical numbers and the spirit cooking lady didn’t bode well for this one.
