[The Outsider]

Not like this.

 

[Dynomutt]

Wonder Woman was a fluke all due to the wonderful Patty Jenkins. Success will not translate out of that property. DCCU deserves zero success moving forward and as far as I'm concerned can fail miserably in every aspect and I will find glee in their sorrow.

They have no idea what to do with any thing. DC offices right now...

 

[Dreams-Visions]

damn so this Joker will be...our fault.

ok.

 

[Ithil]

Bullied?

Don't tell me they are going to want me to feel sympathy for the god damn Joker.

 

[Gordon Shumway]

Next up, Harleen Quinzel: School Daze. The story revolves around her time at college. She explores the new world away from home and her roommate, Ivy..😃🔫

 

[jett]

trash

 

[Mindlog]

A Joker origin movie sounds stupid.
Unless they do a new one every year.

 

[Bronx-Man]

Can't wait to see lil' Joker interacting with elementary school versions of Scarecrow, Two-Face, & Riddler

 

[broncobuster]

Wonder Woman deserves a better universe.

Wonder Woman isn't part of this universe.

He's just an executive producer. As an executive producer Scorsese with a few projects that were less then stellar lets just say.

Probably doing a solid for his boy Bobby.

Bane: My Story From Heroin to Venom

 

[Van Bur3n]

Lord, please kill this movie.

 

[Dash_Riprock]

I take it back!

Give me tryhard Hot Topic Leto, WB.

I TAKE IT BACK!

 

[Syder]

Brendan Schaub said Conor would beat Floyd so take everything he says with a mountain of salt.

DC BABIES!

 

[Cvie]

lol this would be so dumb i kind of want it

 

[Elegant Weapon]

Damn, they told the Joker he wasn't clown enough

 

[HStallion]

WB if we're going there I'd take a campy Batman musical

 

[Sanjuro]

Wonder Woman deserves a better universe.

Sony Pictures is here for you.

 

[SallyIsNow]

Is the Damaged tattoo gonna turn out to be a birthmark too?

 

[Neophant]

Oddly, this reminds me of the Streets of Gotham comic by Paul Dini and Dustin Nguyen where the Joker as a kid was explored, or at the very least hinted at when the older version ends up lashing at the man who abused him when he was younger. Not sure about the permanent smile thing, though, but the whole idea of a dark origin tale does sound promising. Too bad I don't think Todd Phillips has the writing and directing chops to make it work.

Next up, Harleen Quinzel: School Daze. The story revolves around her time at college. She explores the new world away from home and her roommate, Ivy..😃

Directed by Bruce Timm. The filming code title will be "My Fetishes"

 

[shira]

It will start out as "mage" because he's a huge harry potter fan

 

[Bobby Roberts]

He's just an executive producer. As an executive producer Scorsese with a few projects that were less then stellar lets just say.

So far as I know he's not even that yet.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Directed by Bruce Timm. The filming code title will be "My Fetishes"

But will it have superhero Hooters?

 

[JTripper]

A Joker origin movie sounds stupid.

Anthology franchise where every movie is a new Joker origin. I'd be simultaneously offended and intrigued.

 

[Shrennin]

How does one mess up the Joker? I didn't think it was possible. Until Leto and... whatever this is...

 

[jwhit28]

I want a Joker who is bad because it is fun to him. No one should have to make him that way.

 

[BoogieWoogie]

It will start out as "mage" because he's a huge harry potter fan

"You're a wizard, Joe Kerr."

 

[Tender Joe]

Not only that, they got everyone's favorite tomboy beanpole to play his mistress.

but does Gordon have a beer and cheat on his wife?

(this is for the old folks)

I blame you two for my unfortunate return to this masterful piece of film critique:

Bobby, have you ever had the privilege of meeting the ginger wunderkind?

---

On topic, this movie sounds like it's going to be very dogshit-esque.

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

I'm of the opinion that either all the DC rumors are simultaneously true, or they're all simultaneously false. There's so much smoke here that suggests either a deliberate screen, or a complete dumpster fire.

It will start out as "mage" because he's a huge harry potter fan

It will say "AMA" because he's a bullied teen always surfing the internets.

That'd be great. The fun of Elseworlds stories is being able to go in weird directions. I hope the movies follow that same spirit.

This thread is making me think audiences might not be ready if there's already confusion around it.

 

[Johndoey]

Man I sure hope this is completely real and gets produced.

 

[yanipheonu]

Nothing makes someone more menacing and scary than learning exactly what made them menacing and scary.

This seems horribly misguided.

 

[DrForester]

The Joker doesn't need a backstory...

and if he has one, it's the Killing Joke one.

 

[Gordon Shumway]

💩

It’s super dark and real though. Millenials love that shit

 

[norm9]

Matt Damon, Ben Affleck stars as the Jokers.

[PhoncipleBone]

Much like Hannibal or Michael Myers, less is more. You don't need to explain shit to keep him interesting and scary. In fact, adding more layers to him and trying to explain why he is the way he is actually diminishes him.

Mah Bat is facking smaht

 

[Albino_Yeti]

As morbid of a joke it may be, I can't see Joker shooting up a school. That's not really his style.

 

[PR_rambo]

Just give the rights back to Marvel already

Yeah he'd poison their food so they all get the huge grin or make dodgeballs that explode on contact.

[Omadahl]

Is this real life? Holy hell. If I took a wheelbarrow full of amphetamines and fell down a flight of stairs, I could come up with a better plot.

 

[Dierce]

This won't ever go into production like 80% of DC films announced by WB. I don't know why they do it, maybe some tax write-off scheme.

So we'd end up with a great young Joker in Jerome on Gotham and another mess on the big screen. Sure I guess.
