Looks like Second was wrong again. Imagine that.

Think of the awards the sequel to "Joker" will win when the live action version of "The Killing Joke" is made . . . Best Actor in a Drama. Best Soundtrack.

Sequels usually suck. I won't hold my breath on whatever they're doing next.

I have not seen this film, and from what I've heard I might not.


But recently, I heard that this is effectively a remake of Black Swan, with some King of Comedy scenes thrown in, and some John Wayne Gacy action.

If you're afraid it's violence porn and that's the reason you don't want to see it, I wouldn't worry about that. I'm very selective about what I watch these days after I shut off the Silence of the Lambs sequel years ago.

There was a scene at one point that made me worry that maybe I was misled and that's the route it was going to ultimately take, but I'd say it's fairly tame compared to most modern R rated offerings.

Had the movie not been just as damn good as it was, I'd probably resent the gore that I did have to watch getting through it, but it was worth it here.



I say this being a guy who made my brother shut off the preview for the Kingsmen halfway through because I knew straight away I had zero interest in seeing anything that film had to offer from what little I saw of the preview.

This is great news, and yes Phoenix is a line of coke away from taking hostages BUT! I think this list of nominations is the best in years. Since most of these flicks did great B.O. the ratings for the awards show may be very good. I hope "Joker" wins but I think the race is between "1917" and "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood", (The Irishman is way over rated) and I think Phoenix is a lock to win best actor...and will say something nutz.

I can't say I disagree with any of this. Haven't seen
any of the movies but I am aware of them. I'll wait for Netflix. Still, I've seen many clips and reviews.

The list of Hollywood A listers who fall into that category is pretty long. That's nothing special.
