I really have to watch it 🤣 @Lilja K @Matt! @Cult Icon ‘Joker: Folie à Deux’ Drops Record 81% in Second Weekend ‘Joker: Folie à Deux’ has had the worst second weekend decline for any “comic book” movie ever. The film earned $7M this weekend, that’s a miserable 81% drop. It’s only made $51M domestically since its release. In fact, that drop is worse than ”The Marvels,” worse than “Morbius,” and even worse than the infamous “Halloween Ends” decline. What do all four of these films, including ‘Joker 2,’ have in common? Well, they’re just not good. Quality sometimes matters. ‘Joker 2’ earned the same in its second domestic weekend as ‘Beetlejuice 2’ did in its sixth domestic weekend, and ‘Beetlejuice 2’ is already readily available to rent on VOD. This all makes me wonder how soon ‘Joker 2’ will be sent to VOD? I would bet as early as the next Monday. Just to keep track, that’s $51M domestically for ‘Folie à Deux’. Its estimated international total stands at $113.7M, and estimated global total stands at $165.3M. The budget for ‘Folie à Deux’ is said to have been $190M. Hard losses are coming for Warner Bros. I heard that it just didn't meet the expectations of comic book fans and those who liked 1st movie.

I really have to watch it 🤣 @Lilja K @Matt! @Cult Icon ‘Joker: Folie à Deux’ Drops Record 81% in Second Weekend the previous film grossed over $1 billion & the director, lady gaga, & phoenix were given 8-figure salaries for the sequel. It seems like this will the final film given what I've read about the ending. Besides being disliked by people who saw it but the premise & ending goes against what is established in the comic book universe. The relationship between Harley Quinn & Joker is meant to be dominated by the Joker. The Joker never plays second fiddle nor does he ever really 'listen' to Harley. Harley is a totally enthralled follower, and obsessed with him. She does break up with him from time to time but always manages to relapse some how, and her break ups tend to intwine her with the Batman, which she has sexual tension with. There are scenarios from comic book writers where the Joker does revert back to his old identity though. I think the mainstream audiences don't know that. From what I gather the ending of Joker 2 is kind of a response to the controversy of Joker 1 in which critics were complaining that the film was glorifying lone-wolf violence & acts of terror. So it is a cop-out in a sense, and self- protective of the filmmakers.
October 15, 2024Oct 15 I finished listening to the audiobooks for the Witcher novels for a second time. It's too bad that the franchise is on the decline- only a successful Witcher 4 can save it. It's faded so much on youtube. Silent Hill 2 & the remake are amazing games & story. It is definitely one of the best written games ever made, with the most psychologically deep characters and scenarios. It is high emotional IQ compared to Resident Evil. I regret not playing it when I was a teen, and instead playing the SH3 which has an average story. No wonder this game is seen as a classic for 2 decades.

I think the mainstream audiences don't know that. Please tell me which ones. If I understood correctly, there is no general canon of the Joker's origin. And over time, there have been different interpretations depending on the series/universe. The robber who fell into chemicals is the most familiar to me. But I'd be interested to know more.
October 15, 2024Oct 15 I got monetized on youtube and am now a 'youtube partner'. It took approx. 1 year of work, equivalent to having another full time job.

I don't really recall the exact names of these comics, it was too long ago. Yes, you are right- like other franchises the different artists & writers develop their own interpretation of the characters and create their own stories but within boundaries of their publishing house. I think there is a general tendency to stay within certain boundaries. There are different origin stories of the joker as well. "the Killing Joke" is often considered one of the best if not the best take: Batman: The Killing Joke Deluxe (New Edition) TPB - Read Batman: The Killing Joke Deluxe (New Edition) TPB comic online in high quality (readcomiconline.li) read comic online has tons of batman content, if you search for it you will find a huge collection.

October 16, 2024Oct 16 It looks like youtube is starting to de-monetize onlyfans girls for being 'too sexual' on the platform. They've been making good money for so many years and now youtube responds lol. Youtube is also shadowbanning & de-monetizing Ukraine war content after promoting it aggressively for about 1.5 years

I'm not familiar with White Knight, thanks for the recommendation🌸
October 18, 2024Oct 18 Finished watching the Silent Hill 2 remake story. It's pretty much one of the best video game stories ever- perfectly written, devastating, and very memorable. The game has already sold 1 million copies after a few days. I won't be surprised if years down the line it gets made as a film like the Last of Us- it is actually very filmable.

October 26, 2024Oct 26 @Matt! Do you think Natalie Roser got new implants? There is this one poster that says this (and has seen a lot of her recent onlyfans stuff) but so far I don't see it yet.
