ROFL the haters are pulling any last minute strings they can to take stabs at this one movie.
Which is funny because the media hysteria surrounding it gave an ironic boost to it's publicity...

Besides this is not the first instance of bad people getting royalties from big flicks or hit TV series. You might be surprised how many of your favorite blockbusters and academy award winning picks put some cash in the pockets of evil individuals on the side. And there would be a lot less "Movies of the Year" if every one of them with nasty ties had to be pulled out of sight for provocative yet common reasons like this.

Hollywood has been a dark filthy place with dirty little secrets for decades. Why so virtuous now...?

Gotta say, I hate that the song is stuck in my head now. Not outraged they used it, but I personally try to draw the line best I can at consuming media by convicted pedophiles

I try to avoid that too, but I still find myself humming a few notes from LostProphets here and there.

I saw an analyst saying otherwise on the news. He said in most cases the artist is paid a one-time fee. Which would have been way back in the 80's.

"According to the Los Angeles Times, Glitter will receive no money from the use of the song in Joker as he had sold the rights in the late-1990s."

Huh. Well, it wouldn't be the first time that someone sold the rights to their music only for it to later become stupidly popular.
