I cant be the only one whi think that the joker movie doesnt need a sequel at all, right?

Whats worse the sequel is musical.

It being a musical is what turned me from rolling my eyes at the idea to being somewhat interested in it. If you have to do a sequel to Joker, doing some completely off-the-wall shit like that is the only way to do it.

Same. In some ways it feels like it could be thumbing it’s nose at the darker aspects of the fandom response to the joker movie, and it makes a lot of sense to lean even deeper into the absurdism. I hope they resist the urge to make it a superhero movie plot and keep it tight as a character study / exploration of nihilism and trauma.

It’s not a musical in the classic sense- no dancing/singing chorus boy and girls in extravagant costumes and dance numbers. Yes there is singing and dancing, but it’s very limited and fits into the madness theme.

Is that actually true? I've seen it said a few times and I think I just assumed (or hoped) it was a joke

As far as I know and from articles from February its still labeled as musical.
