You know the music, which says pre-sales open in the United States for Joker: Madness for Two said slew of new videos, namely an XXL TV spot, a featurette on love and a first piece from the soundtrack of Hildur Guðnadóttir (Warehouse, Chernobyl). And since 24 hours have just passed since the starting gun, a first trend is already starting to emerge on the box office forums, thanks to the madmen who are patiently counting the tickets sold. If we had to summarize? It’s not very encouraging. The $100 million mark for the first weekend already seems compromised (Joker : 96.2 million), which suggests that Todd Phillips’ clownish blockbuster will experience a sharp decline. Nothing surprising as Joker is considered by many to be a self-sufficient film that didn’t require a sequel, but here’s a start of confirmation…
Arthur Fleck, an inmate of Arkham Asylum, awaits trial for his crimes as the Joker. Still torn between his two identities, he meets true love and finds himself embroiled in a madness of two.
