"the guy who made THE HANGOVER trilogy is making a joker movie" would blow my mind if i were in fifth grade

Wasn't the whole point of the Dark Knight that the Joker is much more terrifying when his origin is mysterious/irrelevant to who he is? https://t.co/41AdokxoYM

There's at least an 80% chance that Martin Scorcese is involved in the Joker movie because he thought it was about the Steve Miller song.

the only people who care about the joker are merchandise designers at hot topic let's be real

I'm skeptical on giving Joker a known origin, but something like Zero Year from the Snyder/Capullo Batman run would be cool to see. pic.twitter.com/2WUc2l1Iyk

"A Joker origin story sounds intriguing. It's like how did a clown become so violent and angry?" -People who have never been to an open mic
