Joker (2019) film.

What other 'Bat characters' would you like to see in this style of movie? I think the Penguin would work well.

Riddler would be a good pick. I'd say Harley, but we're kind of getting that sort of. Honestly though, #1 pick from the Bat-verse? Ra's al Ghul.

I was pleasantly surprised by the movie. It wasn't the best comic Joker film (except by maybe default), but it was just a good well crafted movie. Todd Phillips even deserves credit for interweaving Scorcese and clown/classic comedy/Joker elements, he kept the movie on the tracks.

I don't think this movie would have worked without Joaquin Phoenix. And I don't think films that attempt to this ape this will work so easily either.

And I'm not sure I want so many comic films that have to run from the comics to be a good film.

Neither extreme is ideal: empty disposable MCU/DCEU films vs. "comic book movies" that just very superficially use comic elements and names.

I still want a good Catwoman movie. I think something along the tone of Selina Kyle in the Gotham TV series would work for me. A homeless kid trying to survive on the streets, learning to fight and steal.
Joker strived for realism and I think we could have a realistic Catwoman too.

Ra's al Ghul would be a good pick over Riddler. Riddler is a good villain, however he never escaped Joker's shadow.

I really enjoyed Joker: the film itself, Phoenix's performance, the music and cinematography were the standouts. Amazing box office performance, clearly struck the paying audience. Glad the film wasn't a disappointment after getting hyped on the posters and trailers. The first trailer was one of the best I've seen.

Bruce Wayne, Selina Kile, Jim Gordon and Harleen Frances Quinzel…

P.S. About Joker I can say only two things: it is the best movie I ever seen and it deserve the Academy Awards for the best director, for the best Actor and for the best picture.

Phoenix definitely deserves an award for his performance!

Adding to that, best original score and best cinematography.

The film just hit a billion worldwide and again this is without China box office money.

It won’t make more money than Mel Gibson’s guilt-tripping torture porn.

It actually has a real shot at them, too. Joker is now the crown jewel artistically among CB films.

You're right. It made a lot more than The Passion of the Christ.
