Well this explains what happened to Todd Philips, he was on top of the world between 2009-2011.

His movie is doing very well. It looks like he's going back on top.

It certainly is, I've just seen it and it's fantastic. Well deserved.

Good. Hollywood comedies have been crap for years.

Blame Obama and the PC REEEEE culture for that stupid shit.

Nope. The current woke BS was caused by the metoo movement (kicked off because of Weinstein) and the death of George Floyd.

Both happened on Trump’s watch.

And the movie sucks. Only thing it has to do with the Joker is the title.
