What would Joker 2 be about?

Todd Phillips already said that he wouldn't bother making it if it was just Joker going on his usual maythem throughout Gotham without any deeper thematic issues. So what is there?

Nothing. They shouldn't touch it. The joker is better left as a mystery. Doing another movie would destroy anything the character built in the first film.

Hollywood sequels only get rid of anticipation and mystery by over explaining a character. By movie 3, they'd have the Joker become an antihero.

They'll probably be willing to risk that for another billion dollars.

I would say half of it would have him sitting in bed playing with himself while that talk show is on tv.

Well, it wouldn't be very expensive to make at least...

Movies foe white people do have a shrinking amount of watchers. I would think they would be wise to spend about 75% of what they spent on the first.
