misceláneo Article: The Joker Movie Controversy

posted by Canada24

This is a movie I had no interest in seeing. I was worried having an entire film about Joker will kinda ruin the character.. But the fact the film is rated R does imply I'm probably wrong.

But after I saw Chris Stuckmann's spoiler review. There is a interesting thing he spoke about, that I want throw in my own 2 cents about.

Before this film was even released. There were 2 things that people were worried about. Sympathizing with Joker. And the violence on screen.

Firstly, Chris says this isn't even the most violent film he's seen. He actually states Deadpool is más violent than this movie. But everyone dicho it's fine because Deadpool makes jokes about it.. "just like Joker".

The other is.. From what he also says. We don't sympathize with Joker.. Well, we do, but it doesn't excuse what he does.. It just explains "why" he'll do these things.. And besides, this is Joker, people are actuación shocked that Joker is doing fucked up shit. It's fucking Joker. He's the same man who allowed someone to rip off Joker's face.. And tricked childrun into eating poison.. Both "just for kicks"..

People have been blaming the media for violence for decades.. Just because Joker enjoys killing (which in itself is nothing new), suddenly this movie is "dangerious" and "harmful to society".

The only plus about this, is it does make me want to watch the movie. If Troy (my cousin) still wants see it, I'll probably go with him.. o see it on my own, I don't know.. Be hard, as it's not something I'll take mom too, and I can't drive..

So, yeah.. Not really mad. Just annoyed that this is happening again.. But if anyone sees the movie, please tell me if it's good. I do amor the Joker as a character.. He's so interesting..

Zeppie The movie is incredible, do go see it. The braindead criticism it is receiving for being too depressing, dark or encouraging copy cat behaviour is beyond ridiculous. Mainstream media will always find a new scapegoat to unload all their fears and judgements on. Whether that be music, video games or comics causing real life violence, its all the same. It's blanket statement fear mongering. The film is brilliant. My favourite film I have watched this year.

Canada24 Least it's getting people to watch

Zeppie ^Luckily I didn't know about the media lunacy going into the film, so my viewing experience wasn't influenced in any way.

Canada24 I posted the Chris Stuckmann review.. He says it better than me

Zeppie Yeah I watched it yesterday. He words it pretty well.

Canada24 Yeah

zanhar1 I just talked about this over on tumblr. [i]I just saw that movie and everything about it from the lighting to the musical score portrayed what he was doing as both evil and sad. Nothing about that movie portrayed the violence in a positive light. I’m pretty certain that the whole point of Joker was to show people what can happen if mental illness is untreated and/or the person with the disorder is constantly abused and mistreated. The whole movie was in protest against the way society handles mental illness/treats the mentally ill as well as what poverty can do to people. There were so many scenes showing how poverty and hopelessness leads to crime. How upper class folk treating lower class folk like shit leads to violence. How desperation and sorrow can lead to rage and hate. Towards the end (spoilers for those who still want to watch) the Joker literally turns to the camera and says that the reason he’s confessing to murder and committing more of it is because he has literally nothing else to lose. Tbh I only went to see this movie because my dad wanted to see it. I didn’t think that I’d like it but I ended up really enjoying it. It was very tense and very sad. One of the most emotion evoking movies I’ve seen in a while because I could see in it, some parallels to awful shit that actually happens in the world. TL;DR this movie isn’t condoning violence. It’s (as OP noted) a warning. A movie made to remind people that mentally ill people are still people and should be treated with compassion and should be helped rather than scorned and kicked when they’re already down. That poor folks should be treated with humanity.[/i]

zanhar1 As I said in that comment. I didn't even really want to see the movie (as I have very little interest in superhero franchises) but that movie blew me away. Like it was a powerful movie. I was expecting your typical hyper-violent action-pack crap. While it was violent and action packed it was really rather deep and when the movie ended there was just this silence it the theater. It was a good watch and it gives you a lot to ponder.

Canada24 Well my dude Chris Stuckmann did keep saying "it questons what role we have to creating Joker" in his review

Men should be able to wear a larger variety of clothes

posted by andy10B

I amor skirts and dresses. They are so pretty. Every woman walks down looking good in them no matter who they are. I could wear any of those dresses and skirts that anyone from kim Kardashian wears to the falda that older women wear across the street. I would wear one on a daily basis but there is a problem I'm a man.

Men can only wear trousers and shorts, if anyone sees a man in a falda o a dress it is considered wierd o stupid. But is it? A encuesta i took on this club of 20 people, 75% dicho yes to say that men should wear womens clothes and still be men and I am one of them.

My review of THE GALLOWS... (spoilers).

posted by Canada24

I'm not saying this is a perfect movie.
But it's actually a surprisingly GOOD movie.

It starts off on On October 29, 1993 where the parents of Charlie Grimille record him as he is part of the SCHOOL PLAY.

During the play, Charlie is put on a fake noose, as part of the play. But suddenly the trap door opens, like tu see in real noose sets, but it is soon revealed that this was NOT be part of the act. And Charlie is accidentally hung for real.

20 years later however, students at the same school resurrect the failed play as a misguided attempt to honor the accident.

So a fanpop review?

posted by egyptprincess7

hola there! So I am going to be making a review on fanpop (*looks at título of article* Thanks Captain Obvious! xD)
Anyways, here it is. Sorry if it might seem too short o too long.

I've been on fanpop since 2010. (Yay for 6 years~)
Anyways, this site has ranged from being super active to somewhat active to hardly active. Like right now, it's really not that active and it is honestly boring now. I mean back in 2010 it had much más enjoyable things. Plus the chat system and all. The trolls weren't that bad.

Actually they were quite amusing back then. Now they just are completely boring and wasting...

Response To Kicksomebut23-Internet Arguments

posted by deathding

Let's do this.

So my marvelous friend por the name of Kicksomebut23 just made an articulo on this club about why arguments on the internet often lead to pointless and annoying scenarios, and I'm here to review it because she wanted me to.

Also, I'm sorry if I talk kind of weird because it's pretty difficult to commentate when someone's holding a cuchillo to your throat.

Why is Arguing Not a Good Thing ON THE INTERNET.

posted by kicksomebut23

>Introduction

Yes, often on the internet, we have our ups and downs. Some people don't care for arguing, some people like to argue, and some people try to avoid arguments. I do not like arguing because, I feel like it's not worth my time and unnecessary. In this discussion, I will interpret reasons why arguing on the internet is not good. I'm not trying to force anyone to stop arguing on the internet. This your decision,rather if tu do right o wrong.

Monkey Drop Kicks A Guy Who Gave It The Finger

posted by aslamali

Don't mess with this monkey.

Footage from a security camera is dicho to mostrar a young man in Shimla, India, giving the finger to one of the area's famously belligerent monkeys. And as tu might expect, the monkey is having none of it.

It drop kicks the man right in the head, knocking him to the ground.

The man, however, appears to be OK after the attack as he gets up and walks off.

Shimla's monkeys are known to cause problems for both tourists and locals visiting the Jakhoo temple, which is dedicated to the monkey god Hanuman.

(By the way, this was originally going to be a video so expect to see some *Insert Here* moments. :P Not that it matters, I doubt anyone will even read all this anyways but WHATEVER. ENJOY.)

Ah, Atari. A classic game company that made so many classic titles. Among those were some of my personal favorites, ciempiés and Millipede. First off, Centipede, released in 1981, was a vertically oriented shoot em up classic designed por Ed Logg, who also made Super Breakout and co-developed the game Asteroids with Lyle Rains....

The Tale of King Ramses - creepypasta

posted by slenderman777

Courage the Cowardly Dog was a mostrar on Cartoon Network when it actually had mostly good shows (It aired from 1999-2002). It was cancelled after 4 seasons but it's shown on Cartoon Network sporadically.

One episode in particular that scared a lot of us was King Ramses'' Curse. But does anyone really know King Ramses' backstory? Not really. That's where I come in. About 3 weeks ago, a friend of mine named Ted sent me a link to a website. It was the Cartoon Network website but there was something off about it.

It was darker than I had last remembered it, and por that I mean dark colors. It had been...

parte superior, arriba 10 most villainous moments of Spongebob..

posted by Canada24

I still find this mostrar quite humorious.
Though people don't seem to realize how many villain roles he actually has..

1: A PAL FOR GARY:
Is comedy blind to Gary's danger, and is always blaming Gary for, even though it's "puffy fuffy" who's the threat.
Even when Gary is about to be eaten.
Spongebob, instead of helping him, starts to scold him for his destruction and how he's still treating Puffy Fluffy, even when the anguila is clearly about to eat him. SpongeBob continues to lecture Gary..

2: WAITING:
SpongeBob must wait patiently for the toy.
But he becomes very rude.
Not feeding Gary.
Flipping Sandy rudely....

We hadn't always been here. But the neighborhood has. Even before it was a neighborhood on earth this one had been here. Here for those that would be lost on those cursed grounds, here for those who would die long before their real life ever truly began, here for those who never really wanted to grow up.

We come from different times and we come from different lives, but one thing remains true of all of us. We lived on the earthly realm of the neighborhood at some point in our lives and died long before our time was supposed to come. We don't remember much of our lives in the cul-de-sac since...

Beware Omegle - creepypasta

Hello. Please Listen to me, it's for you're own good. I feel compelled to warn tu of the danger that was recently unleashed upon the internet. I don't have much time left as it is, I feel that he draws near.

I like to surf the net, as do most people. Sometimes the internet gets boring though, and i find myself having nothing to do than go on the anonymous webcamming site known as "Omegle". I'm sure most of tu have heard of it, as it is notorious for having those perverts jerking their basura on the webcam.

Well, I went into Omegle for the first time in forever, and well, I guess they have this...
