Joker (2019 film)/YMMV

These things about Joker (2019 film) are subjective - not everyone will agree with all of them.


 * And You Thought It Would Fail: Many reporters and DC themselves hoped that it would fail given the low budget and R-rating but it was able to get a billion at the box office and get multiple Oscars.
 * Fountain of Memes: Given that Arthur Fleck is an incarnation of the Joker, this is naturally expected.
 * Friendly Fandoms: With Heath Ledger fans given that Joaquin Phoenix was great friends with Ledger.
 * Heartwarming in Hindsight: Joaquin Phoenix and Heath Ledger are the first two actors to get an Oscar for the same character.
 * He Really Can Act: Joaquin Phoenix's performance as Arthur was so good, he won his first Oscar.
 * Hilarious in Hindsight:
 * Joaquin Phoenix and Richard Epcar were in the film Gladiator and later played the Joker.
 * JonTron in an episode of StarCade dressed up as a clown with a gun. "So what? I'm funny now? I'm a funny guy 'cause I'm dressed up like a clown? I suppose you think I shouldn't have a gun, either!"
 * Signature Line: "You get what you fucking deserve!"
 * What Do You Mean It's Not for Kids?: Just because it's a film about the Clown Prince of Crime doesn't mean it's family friendly. It's also more in line with a Martin Scorsese film due to the brutal violence and dark thematic elements.
