That’s an interesting perspective. 

“Hot take” I believe the young people call it. 

 Seriously, don't bother watching it, it's a total time-waster. And if you've already seen it, let's just pretend the second part never happened.

 Could you elaborate?
I did notice that Joker 2 was very slow-paced. A few people left early. 

 Was it worse than Matrix 4?  Man i just knew we were gonna see the reveal of the Matrix inside of another Matrix to explain how Neo could telekenetically take down sentinels in midair in the "real world" and fight through wave after wave of machines guarding machine city before dying in a mock sacrifice on the machine alter... We had plenty of supporting ideology with recursive programs, old code, Matrix 2&3, the animatrix, etc, BUT NooOOOO!!! I had to sit through some pyschology BS and i don't know what else... Who hires these screen writers? ...and where do they get the gaul to not include me in their focus group before releasing these garbage films? 😁  I think you do have a point.  They do seek to actively program reality or at least suppress reality with cinematic emotions, NLP and other stuff i'm not privy to... 

 Wrong. It was a good movie and a perfect fitting sequel to how and why Arthur Fleck is. He was never supposed to be “the” Joker. The movie was more about trauma, abuse and psychology than anything else. 

 Damn I was looking forward to that sequel. Gaga is talented and could do an amazing performance to match that of Phoenix in the first. Sad...
