End scene spoiler:

He ends up in the mental alyssum talking to the social worker. Cut to the hall way of the joker walking off in the distance with bloody foot prints - he killed the social worker. Then we see a guard chasing him on-off the screen like you see in Scooby Doo episode with a nice up beat music played in the background.

Then the credits play

Was a fucked up scene in context lol - makes us hate the joker

just takes 1 unstable person to take it upon themselves to inflict harm on others.
it could happen anytime you just hope you're not there when it happens.

okay after reading the ending theory and what the director said, i bump the movie up to 5/5 stars

the movie's twist/ending really made the entire mental illness and the joker being a "joke maker" more sense

Is it relly the incel manifesto movie the media is making it out to be?

from the trailers it just seemed like a story of a dude constantly getting treated like shit and being beaten while down then finally snapping.

It's literally just "Frankenstein". Society dunks on him because he's repulsive and weird. Driven into becoming a murderous, vengeful monster. It could apply to incels, but to make it singularly about them does the themes a major disservice.

Nah the media are wrong about this and just want to create controversy just to get hits on their website to be honest

the entire "a movie like this shouldn't be made because its dangerous" is wrong lol

anyone who thinks this is a "joker" themselves to be honest - just irrational thoughts

but yeah, good movie haha

shouldnt the moral of the story be to not be a dick to people and be friendlier so that people dont feel the need to go postal. and for the postal types to not be a dick by going postal and that its the wrong way to go about things?

you know, instead of dunking on people who may find it relate-able and treating them like they are Jokers already before its even released. wtf

yes - its implied she gets killed (off screen) but not because of rejection

in the test screening they had a scene where Arthur sees the chick banging another dude and gets mad - this scene isn't in the final film though

depends on how you see the movie

i saw it a different way by the movies end

spoilers for the ending


turns out the joker made up the entire/parts of the story we see - and to me its just a guy who's a joke maker with mental illness that likes to make shit up so people feel sorry for him even though he's a psychotic person.


but that's why this movie is great! it's up the view interpretation!~

That's definitely the main thing to take away from it. But the movie's not really presented with a moral direction. It's presented as "this is a guy, and this is how he becomes a monster."

I actually agree with the last bit. I personally wasn't criticizing incels. I'm frustrated with how the media is spinning it as an "incel movie" because the thought process that drives that subculture is not exclusive to incels. The themes are very wide reaching and there's a lot to take in, but the discussion is just "dae incels succ?"

The trailers made it look like Joker is just a victim of society. Like his transformation and turn wasn't his own fault.

can you tell me how violent or intense it is? I'm hyped but wondering if I should wait to watch at home. sometimes if something super intense is happening in a show, I like to pause at times and catch my breath. I get really worked up sometimes over certain things. I still remember this one scene in "24" involving someone bleeding and I started to feel faint

just how violent or disturbing is it?
