creativerealms 09/01/17 3:40:49 PM #27:	I hate the idea of a Joker origin movie because I hate the idea of giving Joker a solid origin. To me the character is at his best when he could be anyone when the man he was before does not matter. I'm fine with possible origins like the killing Joke and the Red rood thing just adds another layer to the character without telling us who he was. One of my biggest problems with the 89 Batman was giving the Joker an actual origin story. --- No sig. <cite>creativerealms posted [p:885851499] in WB wants D...

DoctorVader 09/01/17 3:49:38 PM #29:	Yeah, this is totally not in response to Tom Hardy being cast as Venom for a villain movie. DiCaprio is probably gonna decline. Though Scorcese might be enough for him. Still, I personally believe that Joker doesn't work without Batman and they peaked that with The Dark Knight. It's the whole insanity between them that makes Joker work. It failed with Suicide Squad and will fall again. Also, is this supposed to be different from the other Joker and Harley movie that's also not supposed have Leto, rather another actor? --- It all just disappears, doesn't it?
