The podcast episode takes listeners on a rollercoaster ride through their viewing experience of "Joker: Folie à Deux," offering a candid and humorous critique of the film's shortcomings. While the film featured impressive performances from Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix, the hosts express disappointment over the lack of a compelling storyline and the underutilization of key characters, particularly Harley Quinn. The discussion centers on how the film's attempt to balance its musical elements with the dark, psychological nature of the Joker character created a muddled experience that left audiences confused rather than engaged. Insights into filmmaking choices that contributed to the film's failure to resonate with the audience are shared, alongside reflections on the broader implications for comic book adaptations in cinema. Their take on the film serves as both a review and a cautionary tale about the pitfalls of straying too far from established character arcs and narratives.Follow Us on Social Media: https://linktr.ee/FilmsInBlackandWhiteRemember you can join our patty family, and help produce the show by going to Patreon.com/filmsinblackandwhiteLinks:https://variety.com/2024/film/news/joker-folie-a-deux-cut-lady-gaga-scenes-lee-kissing-woman-1236169753/?fbclid=IwY2xjawFyaJ9leHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHQOFks9T6nPEGqtj_FCd-GVSZ1zxWk9sCxQRBNs8zjlH9-SdQ4kNbCbG8Q_aem_F_vTJbYOMTP4uQRkGIP44Qhttps://variety.com/2024/film/news/inside-joker-2-opening-night-imax-screening-1236169047/?fbclid=IwY2xjawFyaKpleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHS8JYyihagrOjej4Dj_puI5Nc0a_VOaPtnodiXx70TQHwskE6g4AW8zdBA_aem_9jSub3t41UeEbsS6IRlj9gPlugs:Support the Mantra: Never Offended Always Humble - https://linktr.ee/MarcusJ.DestinLoveNerds - www.thelovenerds.com
