Sigh. Whatever happened to the good old stand alone movie? Why has there always got to be a sequel?.... Oh yes... Greed!

@MisterTriffid - Totally agree. People on here seem to be of the opinion that if there isn’t a sequel “what’s the point” which i find weird.

The Shawshank Redemption. Goodfellas. Pulp Fiction. Fight club. Inception. Heat. Seven. Gladiator. One flew over the cuckoos nest etc etc

All pointless I suppose as they don’t have a sequel.

@James695 - But none of those movie broke 1 billion with the production budget of 50ish millions.

Not necessary.

A sequel with Quinn as his psych would be interesting ala Mad Love. But works better as a stand alone film.

Only other Batman villain origin story I’d want to see on the big screen is DENT.

Harvey Dent’s fall from grace as Gotham’s District Attorney trying to take down organised crime. Put Bradley Cooper in the role.

@DetectiveCinema -
I honestly don't want to see any more villain movies at all, except maybe Luthor or a Gotham criminal underworld movie.

The big lesson from Joker shouldn't be "make supervillain cautionary tales." It's make more creator-driven standalone films that tell new stories and don't follow the usual formulas.

People should be suggesting stuff like The Question or Superman: Red Son or Kingdom Come. Not [frick]ing Bane: The Movie.

Don't do Joker 2, do Harley, show why people stay in abusive relationships.

Also do Luthor

How the [frick] did this make a bill?

Crazy. But na don't wanna see a sequel that defeats the whole purpose3of the ambiguity and what not. But money talks.

A standalone Luthor film would be sick though. We need more Luthor

@NotoriousWolf23 - The story of a young man and his little sister (Lena), who travel to the great city of Metropolis, fleeing from an alcoholic and abusive farmer.

In Metropolis, Lex climbs to the top of the social pyramid and reaches the American dream. He knows his secretary, Miss Tessmacher.

When all goes well, journalist Perry White tries to discredit Lex.

Yea as I suspected, negotiations are probably going on.

As much as I ended up enjoying the movie, I feel a sequel could ruin things.

Damn shame. The standalone is on its last leg I guess.

Not sure I’ve ever seen a sequel or prequel or reboot damage the original.

I still love Jaws, Jurassic Park, French Connection, The Exorcist, In The Heat of The Night, The Hangover, The Hustler, Ghostbusters, Caddyshack, Blues Brothers, Silence of the Lambs, The Godfather, A New Hope, Gone with the Wind, The Shining, Pet Semetary, Halloween, Nightmare on Elm Street, Texas Chainsaw Massarce, Night of Living Dead, Frankenstein, Dracula...and on and on and on and on.

As for Hollywood SUDDENLY being about cash grabs in sequels with successful originals? Ummmm see the films above and I went lite on the films.

Bring on Joker Dos.

"The director reportedly wants to make sure that a follow-up would meet the same artistic level of the first installment and that might not be easy,"

Narrator: It would be easy

I finally saw it last night and I liked it more than I thought I would. The people claiming it's some masterpiece need to get a grip tho lmao.

Good. Don't make "origins" the new gimmick of these standalones, WB. God, why does everyone always have to learn the wrong lessons from shit?

Reminds me of how after Batman v Superman, certain started wanting them to copy Marvel. After Arrow Season 3, people wanted it to copy The Flash. Look how those turned out.

Focusing these higher brow creator-driven standalones entirely on origin story cautionary tales is a stupid idea.
