Apparently, it's too much work for some people to actually pay attention to what's going on on-screen and read what's being said at the exact same time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EG was seen by millions of people who their first language isn't English . Somehow they managed to enjoy the dialogue, action and score all in once with the help of subtitle.

Technically, in order to read subtitles you must be watching them with your eyes. So in fact, subtitles force people to watch the screen to follow the film!

The film showcase how the society need no superpower to produce a terrifying villain. In the film we see how an average decent-behaved person transform into psychopathic serial-killer. Arthur, he is just a average person with no special ability like high-level IQ, or sophisticated equipment or network but somehow, he has become a neighborhood nightmare In the film, we lost Arthur to Joker. The film described how a systematic discrimination or ignorant can lead to psychopathic behaviour. It worked like a cautionary tale. We, as a member of this society need to be more compassionate to avoid next Arthur. USER REVIEWS: 9.9/10. Arthur being bloodied and smiling at the end there is the greatest Joker moment ever. @The Chad DC A+++++ My movie of the decade. Just about as good a social commentary as can be expected from a Hollywood movie. For me it worked on every single level. Magnificent! All I kept remembering throughout the movie was a quote by Jean-Jacques Rousseau-When the people shall have nothing more to eat, they will eat the rich. How easy it is in modern society to sit surrounded by comfort, blissfully unaware (or purposefully ignorant) that we sit on a powder keg and at any time the match could be lit and the whole system could come crumbling down. Watching the Joker was great but watching Gotham crumble was better still. @glassfairy One of the greats in “CBM” movies. I wouldn’t call this a true comic book movie I would call this an artistic rendition of a character study. The sublime genius of work done by Phoenix playing joker , he melded into the role like no other. This was the performance of the year. His transition from a disturbed abused individual to a person with a confident stride was one to behold. The story was very simple and it had to be because it did not need to be complicated. It was simply the downfall of a man who became the joker nothing else . For the villain who had no backstory this was all that was needed. The Movie didn’t need anything to say except it being the descent of a broken man and an ascent of a mad man . Beautiful imagery, haunting score. This could have been done by any director because each frame had Phoenix, each amazing moment had Phoenix and thus by extension the movie is an amazing masterclass by Phoenix 10/10 A @hasanahmad Joker is one of those movies I didn't care for all that much but I can see why others did, if that makes sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 To read subtitles, you have to put your phone down and just know that FB, Insta, Snap, Twitter and i-Chat will still be there 2 hours later. FOMO inhibits a lot of movie goers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grey ghost Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 I watched bot Ford v Ferrari and Endgame.
