Whats your thoughts on the Joker trailer ?

casting lady gaga seems genius and even though i am very sceptical the trailer makes me think this could turn out really good.

I'm still skeptical enough about the first one I haven't yet watched it. I'm just so afraid of being disappointed by it, with all the baggage that comes with a character like the Joker.

The thing about a guy like him is, he thrives on the idea that nobody knows his origin story. Nobody knows where he came from, whether his real name is Arthur Fleck, Jack Napier, or even Joe Kerr. Giving a character like that a concrete origin story is risky. And to be perfectly honest, even though it screams "kid's comic book", I've always preferred the versions of him that aren't wearing makeup, that are somehow scarred and bleached in some unspecified accident or attack. So this version of him, this sad, depressed man who only comes alive when he puts on the clown makeup...

I don't know.

I'll probably give it a shot someday.
