gg great movie.
And if the whole thing is untrue, it means we know jack shit about this character. Nothing. I'm not a fan of making movies about nothing, I don't see the value in that. That's how I feel.
I see both but your chosing to only see one and to believe its only one and can only be one. Just like Authur's delusions started out to be.
You prefer to think that the whole thing that you saw, from Arthur's struggle in his life, his lack of affection, his mental state, his distorted state of reality, the people that he killed, the riots that ensued and even the death of Thomas Wayne was all in his head, some story he imagined while institutionalized ? That's okay, but that's the ending that I prefer as I feel it takes away a lot of the movie if that's how you see it, but that's my 2 cents. We already know that Arthur is an unreliable narrator, but I believe the events that happened in the movie for the most parts were real and was not just some ''delusion'' he was telling to his psychiatrist.
The imaginary girlfriend was just a primer for the audience to stop and take a double check to prepare them. To introduce you to his whole delusion state. So the audience experiences for themselves his condition. That nothing for him was what it seems. That's a schizophrenic!
Then the final minutes his delusions morphing back into his hospital setting where he was dancing in the hospital vs the streets, his doctor from street clothes to uniform attendant etc. It was kinda like when you wake up from a slumber and your alarm is going off. The sound of the alarm somehow gets incorporated into your dream and you realize this as you awaken.
The scene where he has no shirt on? Everyone commented on how skinny the actor got???? Instead not noticing his body language, his clenched position with his arms, hunched over? Very similar position if in reality he was confined to a straight jacket. They made him shirtless to highlight his inability to see his constraints at all.
That's why those scenes were included. Otherwise what was the reason at all to include them? They arguably had no purpose other than to help introduce that climatic resolution. That he was arguably awaking from his psychotic episode and he had been hospitalized all along.
Its an ending just like Bruce willis in the sixth sense ....remember?
Very similar ending to that movie where he realizes he was dead the whole time?. But maybe that's why so many people are raving about this movie don't realize....That it borrowed alot from past successful premises like taxi driver and the sixth sense ending twist.
― Friedrich Nietzsche
Will rewatch when released for home, but I think the movie gives slight stylistic hints when depicting distortions.
May as well posit whether any of these discussions in this forum are "real".

You shouldn't shout "Fire!" in a crowded theatre
You definitely shouldn't shout "Allahu Ackbar!" neither

The girlfriend was not real - the neighbour with daughter was real.
I believe they have now gone on record to clarify whether she was killed.
Lol - same actress in Deadpool 2, right?
I would assume that he didn't kill her base on that he let the other guy leave.
Joker has very few "ha ha ha" moments, whereas Deadpool has this perpetually.
Basically - Action Comedy VS Drama Thriller

What a world where $70 million is "low" budget

Or maybe they will?
Riddler?
Catwoman?
Two Face?
Condiment King?
SPOILERS ENSUE
Great performance by Phoenix.
The script seemed pretty meh and contrived from various angles.
Almost feels like the un-reliable narrator (the entire movie is from his perspective, constantly juggling delusion and reality) is a crutch for some contrived storytelling. The apt neighbour relationship being fake felt super obvious from onset. The talk show appearance very contrived. Worst of all was the stupid ambulance, set up as if done on purpose. Keeping in mind this is set in a pre-internet world, and the show was live on air, are we to believe that everyone in Gotham was watching and then reacting? Twitter brought us instant real time reactions to major events - this simply did not exist prior. They basically did a piss poor job of making the ambulance smash seem plausible, which I find super annoying if the excuse is "you can't trust his story cause he is cray cray". Easily could have been avoided by having the cop car talking on CB explaining who they have and where they are going, followed by dudes in ambulance picking this up on cb. Maybe this got edited for time?
They kinda built up that things were really getting bad in Gotham, but the riot kinda felt forced. Frankly, I would have been more impressed if they gave us a stronger taste that this mass riot was part of the delusion, involving only a few dudes.
Totally cracked up at the awkward escape of the midget.
I expect there is a large generational divide when it comes to liking this movie, with older farts like me being more critical , and current youth feeling a stronger connection due to their real life grind work experiences (and mental health struggles) combined with feelings that the system is failing them. Do young people even bother to watch older movies (many of which cover identical themes)? I suspect few do, given how much quality productions (both movies and series) are present.
Does this mean we are gonna see another Batman movie to follow?
I have to say Falling down and fight club were better anti establishment movies.
I see why the dc fans were upset with this rehashing of their character. They do kinda explain the psychotics of his character but in a manner falling way way to short of ever approach explaining the actual character's legendary underlying motives and genius. The true comic book Joker was a "Kurtz" on a pilgrimage for absurd-ism brought on by tragedy and frustration that grew into mental illness. The other side of the coin that was batman I guess.
I prefer the flash paradox idea of Joker as the best example of what makes "The joker". Really simplifies it by showing 2 equal identities born from the same tragedy but with opposing perceptions. That was clever.
Good movie tho. Decent B+ as the cinematic score rates it
Phoenix better get an oscar.
Joaquin Phenoix is absolutely brilliant, and that's a fact.
Lots copied from far superior films (i.e. Requiem for a Dream, The King of Comedy, etc...), story/other characters were thin, and the movie felt laboured and unoriginal.
Phoenix was excellent as someone suffering from mental illness and his crescendo into being the mega-villain he will eventually become.
I thought it was pretty cool how he appeared healthy/happy once he became Joker, compared to the majority of his time as Arthur.

Convicted paedophile Gary Glitter is reportedly set to earn hundreds of thousands of pounds in royalties from the new Joker movie.
So - wet dream movie for incels that fattens the wallet of an incarcerated paedophile.
What a time to be alive!
