    I liked the first, but think I’m gonna avoid this.

    The joker cringe online has just gotten out of control, has completely ruined the character for me.

    Gaga and Joaquin are both awesome, so I am excited to see this. Im not generally big on musicals, but I am kind of pleased that the style doesn’t suit the “missed the point by idolizing the villian” type of stereotypical Joker fan. Should be an interesting direction.

      Why do you say that? I think it couldn’t be a more perfect description of the two.

      “delusion or mental illness shared by two people in close association”

        Because it’s a not well known phrase in French, including an accent mark and everything. It screams of trying to be fancy and trying to look smart. It’s sounds like an akshully fedora kid

          I’ve known it since I was like 12. Maybe you’re the issue?

          Waddaya mean not well known? For me it’s in like… the top twenty of french expressions.

            I wonder if I know any other expression than: oh lala… something! Yet, you know so many expressions that you can easily recall your own “top 20”. Perhaps you do speak French?.. Or I’m just a blatant ignorant xD

              Edit: I don’t really speak french, don’t even think I’ve spelled most of these correctly and I have no idea where the accents go. I think I mostly use the above expressions, since they’re occuring in German as well as in English.

            While that may be true, I think it’s a very safe guess that a significant majority of english speakers have never heard of it

              Given the desolate state of the US educational system… mhhm, true.

              Well given the popularity of the Joker that’ll likely change.
