| You're watching America First. | ||
| My name is Nicholas J. Fuentes. | ||
| We have a great show for you tonight. | ||
| Very excited to be back with you here again tonight on Friday, and we're feeling good. | ||
| Thank God it's Friday, right? | ||
| Another week finished, and this week pretty, pretty quick, right? | ||
| I would say this week went by Pretty quickly at least for me. | ||
| We didn't have that much America first this week, you know Monday weren't here last night I wasn't here. | ||
| So the week has gone by quickly, but it is finally Friday. | ||
| Thank God It's gonna be a casual Friday show. | ||
| I am wearing casual. | ||
| It's not really too casual It's just a regular button-down shirt, but you see it's no tie and that's what makes it casual That's what's going to help facilitate a low-key Relaxed chill show and it's going to be all those things tonight We're gonna be focusing mainly on the new Joker film the film Joker Which I said I was taking a holiday yesterday and everybody else should have as well Missed work, missed school, whatever. | ||
| Because yesterday was our day. | ||
| Yesterday was officially Joker Day. | ||
| We've been waiting for this movie for a long time! | ||
| And it's the first time maybe since Blade Runner 2049 that we have had representation on the big screen. | ||
| It's the first time that I saw myself, not literally, but it's the first time we saw perhaps a character study sympathetic to the struggles that we go through in society. | ||
| On the big screen. | ||
| It was a very important day for us. | ||
| You know, many have said that the film was our Black Panther. | ||
| A nod to what Black Panther did for representation for blacks in mainstream pictures. | ||
| I feel the same way about the Joker film. | ||
| And so I did see it last night. | ||
| I'll be giving you a little bit of a review, but what I mainly want to talk about is, of course, the politics surrounding. | ||
| You know, I'm not really like a movie critic per se. | ||
| I'm not... I don't have a fancy degree in like literature, so I can't give you, you know, a very in-depth... | ||
| I'm not going to break down the whole story. | ||
| Also, I don't want to spoil anything for anybody, so that's also why I don't really want to get too into detail about the actual substance of the content, the storyline, and all of that of the film itself. | ||
| But what I really find the most interesting about this whole phenomenon is the obvious political implications of the movie. | ||
| I think everybody realizes this. | ||
| I know maybe this isn't part why the movie is so talked about, why there's so much buzz about it, which is that people are not even really so much talking about the film itself, but in the build-up to this film over the past few months, or the release of the film, the conversation has been about what are the ramifications. | ||
| Obviously, the most... what would you say? | ||
| The most sensational or alarming buzz has been about the potential, the possibility of some kind of terrorist attack at the opening of the film. | ||
| You know, I think we talked about, maybe it was earlier this week or last week, there was actually a memo circulating from the Department of Defense, from the military, Telling local police to be on guard about potential attacks, about terrorist activity, and we're going to talk about that. | ||
| In particular, that was only the most extreme sort of buzz that it got from a socio-political lens, but I've seen even a lot of the critics who have seen the movie, largely female critics, a lot of cosmopolitan academic types, have said either they won't review the movie or they refuse to see the movie. | ||
| Those that have seen the movie, uh, that are these types, have panned it saying, you know, and I even, I looked at a lot of the reviews to prepare for this show. | ||
| A lot of the reviews don't even focus so much on the movie itself. | ||
| Like, for example, I saw on RogerEbert.com, Roger Ebert has obviously passed, but they still do reviews on his website. | ||
| It got two stars on the Robert Ebert, Roger Roberts, the Roger Hello, we're having a stroke moment. | ||
| I'm having a Bernie Sanders moment. | ||
| Roger Ebert. | ||
| They gave it two stars on that website and I read the review and it said it didn't even really have a problem with the movie itself, but it just said, well, what are we doing when we're glorifying a character like this in this climate? | ||
| You know, and I got that impression from a lot of these reviews and a lot of the reaction. | ||
| So we're mainly going to focus on that because, you know, to me, it's so fascinating that it should be in any other time A comic book movie, right? | ||
| I mean, we'll get into maybe how it should be classified. | ||
| I think it was more of a drama. | ||
| I think, you know, rather than a comic book movie like Avengers or Spider-Man, it's probably more like a drama than anything. | ||
| But in any case, I feel like in any other time you would release a movie About a comic book villain, you know, even if it's not a classical comic book movie, the character comes from a comic book, and any other time you could have a movie like this release, and it would be uneventful, you know? | ||
| Or if there was any kind of fanfare or anything, it would be because of how many tickets it sold, right? | ||
| Like Avengers Endgame, something like this. | ||
| But to me it's so amazing that in 2019 this film The Joker comes out and they literally have the military on high alert because they're afraid that the people that are talking about the Joker and society and gamers and incels and this kind of stuff online are gonna see this movie as a green light to commit mass casualty events. | ||
| And even if they're not legitimately afraid of that, maybe they're planning that. | ||
| Maybe that's a PSYOP, you know? | ||
| So to me, that's the real story is why what is it about this movie that is causing everybody to lose their minds? | ||
| You know, it's sort of like the Dark Knight Joker when he says, you know, we do this and nobody bats an eye, but the Joker movie comes out and everybody loses their minds. | ||
| Why is it? | ||
| So that's going to be the main feature of the show tonight. | ||
| That'll be our main story. | ||
| We'll also be talking about impeachment. | ||
| Are you excited to hear the latest about the impeachment of Donald Trump? | ||
| Honestly, after like two years of Russia scandal and all these intermittent like sexual scandals, like with Roy Moore and Brett Kavanaugh, I just have no appetite. | ||
| I have no patience for this kind of story. | ||
| You know, these very long sagas where it's a legal case, and we're diving into the details, and you know, this person said this thing, and that person said the other, and Trump says it's a witch hunt, and the media says... Does anybody else feel the same way? | ||
| And I know impeachment is obviously, it's big news. | ||
| It's very important. | ||
| You know, I had some boomers commenting on one of my recent shows where I said impeachment is boring, we're not going to talk about it. | ||
| And somebody's like, well, Nick, but you have to admit it's like really important. | ||
| And it's like, I know, I understand. | ||
| I understand maybe this one has a little bit more import and a little bit more legitimacy and validity than Russia. | ||
| Well, I mean, frankly, we've been doing this since the guy got inaugurated, maybe even since before that. | ||
| We've been doing this realistically for four years. | ||
| You know, Trump said this week, the media has been trying to impeach me ever since I got into office, and that's totally true. | ||
| So yeah, while Nancy Pelosi has kick-started a really serious impeachment inquiry about this latest story, this Ukrainian call, How long have we really been talking about removing Trump from office because of some impropriety, because of some foreign meddling scandal? | ||
| We've been doing this for four years. | ||
| So now everybody wants to say, oh impeachment saga and here we go. | ||
| It's like... | ||
| Really? | ||
| It's been the same thing for, really, four years. | ||
| He announced in, what, July 2015? | ||
| And realistically, they've been gunning for this guy ever since. | ||
| To me, it's more of the same. | ||
| But, you know, we'll talk a little bit about that. | ||
| I'll give you a little update. | ||
| There is sort of a major update about this concerning some text messages that have been revealed. | ||
| So we'll talk very briefly about that, and then we'll get to what we really want to talk about, which is the Joker. | ||
| And you know, like I said, last night I had to dip. | ||
| I had to take a little bit of a rain check on the show yesterday because I went to go see it with a friend of mine. | ||
| It was pretty great. | ||
| Me and my gamer bro, uh, cause I don't really have many friends in like the Chicagoland area or at least not in like my neighborhood. | ||
| I have some friends downtown, but I don't really know anybody left in my neighborhood. | ||
| So I was, I was going to see it no matter what. | ||
| And I think it would probably would have been more fitting if I just saw it alone. | ||
| I think that would have been the most, Fitting? | ||
| Maybe in some ways my experience would have been enhanced if I had gone alone, you know? | ||
| If I was sitting laughing to myself in the movie theater by myself on opening night at 10 o'clock, right? | ||
| But I went with a friend of mine. | ||
| We sort of hung out all day. | ||
| We went to go see the movie. | ||
| I hope everybody else did the same, and I hope if you didn't see the movie yesterday because you're a gay, or a wagey, or a student, or you're a bitch, you're a femoid maybe, then I hope you're gonna see it tonight, or I hope you're gonna see it tomorrow night, because, and here's the thing, before we even dive into anything, I'll just say, what's most important about this movie is that it does well. | ||
| In my opinion. | ||
| It is very important that this movie succeeds at the box office because, you know, you got to understand that this movie had so much stacked against it, in the sense that they... I am a firm believer, or maybe I'm willing to believe, that the government was trying to sabotage the release of this or hijack the release of this film for reasons that we all understand. | ||
| They want us to fear the white man. | ||
| They want us to fear the lonely white male. | ||
| They want to use anything that they can get to target him, to villainize him. | ||
| So I think even you look at the director of this film, Todd Phillips, who is Jewish, you know, why would he make a film like this? | ||
| It's very important that this movie does well in spite of everything that's been going on. | ||
| So that maybe more movies like this are created, right? | ||
| And maybe people see that in a similar way to how the media is trying to shut down other things. | ||
| In spite of that, we're able to rise up, we're able to have these sort of cultural landmarks excel and succeed. | ||
| So I highly recommend it. | ||
| If you're not gonna stay tuned for the rest of the show, do go see it tonight or tomorrow. | ||
| It was fabulous. | ||
| But we're gonna dive in, we're gonna talk about Impeachment very briefly. | ||
| Well, look, we gotta talk about it. | ||
| It is a news show technically, right? | ||
| It is a show about American domestic politics at its core, or it's supposed to be. | ||
| So this is the latest development with impeachment. | ||
| You know, we remember, I think it was last week or two weeks ago. | ||
| Who can even keep track of the time anymore? | ||
| Certainly not me. | ||
| It was either last week or two weeks ago, the Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, she announced a formal inquiry, a formal impeachment inquiry, into this call that was allegedly made between the President Donald Trump and the Ukrainian President Zelensky concerning the investigation of Joe Biden's son, into this call that was allegedly made between the President Donald Trump | ||
| Allegedly, the Democrats say that President Donald Trump offered a quid pro quo deal in exchange for the Ukrainian President investigating Hunter Biden, and that would obviously have political fallout for Joe Biden, who was the frontrunner in the Democratic presidential primary. | ||
| In exchange for that, then, Donald Trump would give Ukraine, would continue to greenlight the extensive military foreign aid that we give to Ukraine. | ||
| That is the allegation. | ||
| Now, we went over last week the transcript of the phone call in question. | ||
| We went over the whistleblower complaint and the identity, perhaps, of the whistleblower. | ||
| At the very least, we have the identity of the whistleblower's lawyers. | ||
| And my initial take has been, this is basically ridiculous. | ||
| You know, everything that they're accusing the president of and what they're willing to impeach him over is, in the grand scheme of things, so minor. | ||
| I mean, it's a phone call, for what it's worth, right? | ||
| It's not like they're talking about a deal that went through. | ||
| It's not like they're investigating how Trump did pull the aid and Ukraine did investigate. | ||
| They're talking about a phone call which by the way we have the full transcript of and we've seen that in the transcript of the actual phone call over which they're trying to kick-start a new and valid impeachment campaign there is not an explicit mention of a quid pro quo deal which is what the allegation is. | ||
| I mean that's the alleged crime and there's not even an inference Or an implicit reference to a quid pro quo deal. | ||
| Foreign aid is not discussed in great detail. | ||
| It's not discussed in connection with Hunter Biden. | ||
| So for that reason I have basically panned this early on and said this is another hoax. | ||
| It's another Russia type scandal. | ||
| I've also been skeptical or curious why the Democrats are choosing To make impeachment their mission over this and over this right now. | ||
| Because for months, progressives in the Democratic Party have been pushing Nancy Pelosi to pursue impeachment, and she's been resistant to that. | ||
| The obvious reason is because impeachment is not very popular. | ||
| If you look at any of the polling, I think there was one poll that came out very recently that showed that more people are in favor of impeachment than are against it. | ||
| But for many, many months before the Ukraine scandal, There was not a single poll that showed that more people wanted Trump to be impeached than did not. | ||
| It was actually only like 30% and in some polls even less than that who wanted to see impeachment, which in other words is the Democratic base. | ||
| You know? | ||
| So I was sort of curious and confused why Nancy Pelosi would choose to impeach over this and right now when for the longest time the rhetoric has been that the way they want to remove him from office is not impeachment, which is unpopular. | ||
| Instead they just want to win the election, which is probably a lot more likely. | ||
| Because in any case, even if they do impeachment, they're going to get humiliated, because we know that the impeachment process has it, that even if they impeach in the House, and impeachment is equivalent to an indictment, it has to go to the Senate for a trial. | ||
| A Senate that is controlled by the Republicans. | ||
| They would need a two-thirds majority in the Senate, and Republicans have a simple majority, I think by one vote. | ||
| Senate anyway. | ||
| So to me, I was a little bit confused, but we do have a update on this whole story concerning some text messages, which looks a little bit worse. | ||
| I'll have to admit, looking at these text messages, I would say the case for Donald Trump is definitely harmed by this latest evidence. | ||
| So I'll read you. | ||
| This is a report from BBC. | ||
| It says, quote, texts show how U.S. | ||
| officials worked to prod the Ukrainian president into opening a public inquiry into President Trump's leading opponent Joe Biden. | ||
| The messages released by congressional Democrats emerge as Mr. Trump faces an impeachment inquiry over the matter. | ||
| The exchanges show a senior diplomat saying it would be, quote, crazy to withhold military aid to Ukraine for Mr. Trump's political gain in the 2020 election. | ||
| U.S. | ||
| laws ban soliciting foreign help for electoral purposes. | ||
| But Mr. Trump denies any wrongdoing and on Friday said there was no quid pro quo in the communications. | ||
| His remarks came a day after he publicly called on Ukraine and China to investigate Mr. Biden, a top Democratic White House candidate, and his son, Hunter. | ||
| The impeachment inquiry stems from a July 25th call, blah blah blah, we've been over this. | ||
| The wide-ranging text message discussions are connected to allegations by the Democrats that Mr. Trump dangled military aid as a way to press Ukraine to dig dirt on Mr. Biden. | ||
| Sent between July and September, they involve high-ranking officials. | ||
| They include Kurt Volker, Mr. Trump's Ukraine envoy, Gordon Sondland, the U.S. | ||
| Ambassador to the European Union, and Bill Taylor, a top U.S. | ||
| diplomat at the American Embassy in Ukraine. | ||
| On July 19th, the three diplomats discussed arranging a phone call between the Ukrainian President Zelensky and President Trump. | ||
| Mr. Volker told the other two that he had breakfast with Mr. Trump's lawyer Rudy Giuliani that morning and identified the main purpose of the upcoming phone call. | ||
| He said, quote, most important is for Zelensky to say that he will help the investigation. | ||
| But Bill Taylor, the senior U.S. | ||
| diplomat in Ukraine, warned the president, rather warned that President Zelensky is sensitive about Ukraine being seen as, quote, an instrument in Washington domestic reelection politics. | ||
| Ahead of the call, Mr. Volker texted that he had heard from the White House that Zelensky would be offered a formal visit to Washington, quote, assuming President Xi convinces Trump he will investigate or get to the bottom of what happened in 2016. | ||
| This is a reference to the allegations that Ukraine interfered in the 2016 election and worked to help the Democrats. | ||
| So, you know, again, this is more of the same, essentially, but this does shine some light on the allegation, whereas maybe the phone transcript Uh did not include any explicit or implicit reference to a quid pro quo deal. | ||
| Clearly in this text messages there is some kind of suggestion that a deal might have been in the works. | ||
| At the very least I don't think foreign aid was covered completely in these text messages but at the very least this idea of getting Zelensky to investigate Joe Biden and having that obviously benefit Trump in the election Was discussed! | ||
| Now again, I have to say that even if all this is legitimate, it does not constitute a crime, right? | ||
| Investigating criminals, to me, does not constitute a crime. | ||
| You know, so what they're alleging is that, oh well, if Trump and Zelensky are working together, this constitutes a foreign government helping a sitting president with electoral affairs. | ||
| But to me, the president is the chief executor. | ||
| That's the executive branch. | ||
| If you read the Constitution, he is the chief law enforcement officer of the country, which is kind of an epic way to think about it. | ||
| You know, a lot of people don't like to think about it this way, you know, because, I don't know, we don't really have a very good conception of civics and government in our country. | ||
| It's pretty lame. | ||
| You know, we consider the president merely the head of state and the head of government. | ||
| But if you read the Constitution, it talks about how the president really is in charge of enforcing the laws. | ||
| Which, when you think about it that way, it's like he's the chief police officer. | ||
| You know? | ||
| And that way, he's the protector and the guarantor of law and order. | ||
| He can arrest anyone he wants. | ||
| And in that way, it's kind of cool. | ||
| Maybe it's very reactionary. | ||
| It's very right-wing to think of it in this way. | ||
| But when you think about it that way, you realize that Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, Hunter Biden, they are criminals. | ||
| They did commit crimes. | ||
| What they did when they were in office was obviously, at the very least, suspicious. | ||
| At the very least, it was conspicuous. | ||
| You know, we read out some of the things that President Trump wants Zelensky to investigate Biden for or some of the things Trump wants Zelensky to investigate Biden for which are for example that Joe Biden and Hunter Biden were meeting with these high-profile Chinese business people. | ||
| Joe Biden is the sitting vice president of the United States and Hunter Biden would come out of meetings with the Chinese or the Ukrainians or other people with $50,000 a month contracts or millions of dollars in pay and I don't think that all of that just happens, right? | ||
| I mean, we know it wouldn't be the first time that a sitting president or a politician has used, or a sitting vice president in this case, a politician to use nepotism or crony measures to help out their political allies or their family or their friends. | ||
| And so to me, to see all these things going on, it's perfectly legitimate for the president to use his office to investigate crimes and to punish criminals. | ||
| That's his job. | ||
| It is his job description. | ||
| Particularly when you're looking at the federal government. | ||
| Who else is going to investigate these things? | ||
| The Department of Justice? | ||
| The Department of Justice is largely, in a way, appointed and controlled, in an indirect way, by the White House itself. | ||
| So, I don't see how this would be outside the purview of his constitutional jurisdiction. | ||
| It would be one thing if the President told the Ukrainian President that he needs to kill Joe Biden, you know? | ||
| That would be a different story. | ||
| It would be one thing if he told Vladimir Putin that he needs to do something to hurt Joe Biden monetarily. | ||
| I want Vladimir Putin to tell his business people in Russia that they have to stop donating to the Joe Biden campaign. | ||
| I don't know, they don't really donate to the campaigns, but you know what I'm saying. | ||
| If the president were to go out to a foreign government and solicit any kind of help materially or in other ways, I would say that that would be a legitimate abuse of power by the president. | ||
| That would constitute the kind of violation that the Democrats are talking about, which is again soliciting help from foreigners to help in an election. | ||
| But in this case, and this is obviously a pretty special case, Or, in a lot of these cases from the last administration, whether it's Obama, or Clinton, or Joe Biden, we're talking about law enforcement. | ||
| We are talking about investigating. | ||
| And that's all it is, even with the Ukrainian President Zelensky, is an investigation of past wrongdoing, past corruption, things like this. | ||
| To me, that is well within the constitutional jurisdiction of the President. | ||
| It does not constitute a crime. | ||
| I'll say that it doesn't look good. | ||
| This is not something that after two and a half years of Russia investigation is something that makes the president look better, right? | ||
| I would think that this is not something that we want to be talking about for a long time, heading into a presidential election. | ||
| This is not something that we want to be the main story. | ||
| I don't think this is a rock-solid concrete case like it was with Russia. | ||
| You know, clearly, even when they did the live televised Mueller testimony, I think more people watched that and came away thinking that it was a bunch of BS, it was a hoax, than came away convinced that Trump colluded with Russia. | ||
| I don't think that's the case with this scandal. | ||
| You know you very well may on a technical level not have an abuse of power and at a technical level you could probably chalk it up to partisanship and Democrats getting desperate and this kind of thing but it's not something that I think the president benefits from if the media lingers on this for too long particularly the more that we're finding out about it with regards to these text messages. | ||
| Clearly a deal was in the works It did constitute some kind of quid pro quo. | ||
| Whether or not you could say it was totally legal, I think is another question. | ||
| But a deal was clearly in the works and this kind of dealing, this kind of interaction, is not something I don't think that is going to poll well. | ||
| Let's just put it that way. | ||
| Especially heading into an election year. | ||
| I would just say that about this update, but it's really just more of the same. | ||
| It's more just fakery. | ||
| I really don't, at the end of the day, I really don't care. | ||
| It's a coup attempt by the usual suspects. | ||
| It's just another coup attempt. | ||
| Even if Trump did this, and even if it was illegal, it really doesn't matter. | ||
| I mean, to really just drive home the main point of this show as a concept, is that none of what you're seeing on the news really matters, okay? | ||
| It's all theater. | ||
| It is all just a big drama. | ||
| It is meant to distract you. | ||
| It is meant to get you to pick a side and invest in the minutiae of something that really is fake. | ||
| Of something that really just is totally illusory, right? | ||
| And we went over this, I think, on Tuesday. | ||
| Or, I'm sorry, on Wednesday when we talked about the second anniversary of the Las Vegas shooting. | ||
| You know, this kind of political theater is meant to distract you from the real goings-ons, the real sausage-making, so to speak, you know, to borrow a phrase in politics. | ||
| So, you know, we're going to go back and forth and, well, the media says we've got more documents. | ||
| Well, here's why Trump is innocent. | ||
| But it's, I mean, it's all fake, right? | ||
| And we all realize it's sort of a postmodern political theater project. | ||
| But anyway, we're going to get to the cool stuff. | ||
| My hair is a mess today. | ||
| I got to get a haircut. | ||
| We're gonna get to the real feature of our show tonight, the fun stuff. | ||
| Joker was out yesterday in preview screening. | ||
| It's officially out today, and I have to tell you, it's probably the biggest white pill in a long time. | ||
| You know, because you look at the Trump administration, you look at the Jesus is King album last week, so much of what we have been promised over the years So much that has been hyped up to be our thing. | ||
| Something that's gonna make us feel better. | ||
| Something that's gonna push us in the right direction. | ||
| It turns out it's an album that never comes out. | ||
| Or it's an administration that's gay. | ||
| It's an administration that wants to, you know, bring in legal immigrants. | ||
| And wants to make tax cuts happen for Walmart. | ||
| And, you know, wants foreign war overseas. | ||
| And so I feel like after so many years, particularly since the election of disappointment, black pills, and really it's part of a long train of decline, you know, a long, decades-long saga of generational decay in this country, Finally, something that simply lives up to the hype, right? | ||
| And I'm not gonna say, like, Joker makes up for 30 years of ruin. | ||
| I'm not trying to say that Joker makes up for the Trump administration being a disappointment. | ||
| Joker's not gonna save America, okay? | ||
| But I will say that it's nice to see. | ||
| A lot of people will look at this very cynically. | ||
| I've already seen this. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Consume product, get excited for next product. | |
| Okay, retard. | ||
| Let's just enjoy something for once, right? | ||
| And that's how I feel about the movie. | ||
| For once, it was something that Sort of resonates with us on a visceral level. | ||
| It lives up to the hype. | ||
| It's what it's cracked up to be and it's something that is authentically, legitimately an expression of what we're feeling in this time. | ||
| You know, and it's funny because all the opinions about Joker and all the memes and everything else that came out in the build-up to this movie We're about a movie that nobody had even seen yet. | ||
| This has been one of the most talked about cultural events, at the very least on our side of Twitter, of this year, and I think even in the mainstream as well, for months and weeks about a movie that nobody had even seen yet. | ||
| That we don't even know what happens in the movie, and in spite of that, we have our side of the Twittersphere, we have glommed onto this, we have engaged with the material, and we have made this, projected perhaps, our worldview, or our vision onto this movie, as a representation of us, or what we're feeling, or at the very least something funny, something memetic, and I think | ||
| Conversely, on the side of the media, on the side of the establishment, they have done the same thing, and have projected their fears and everything else onto it. | ||
| You know, so to me, to have this movie play, and to see it, and for it to be what we thought it was going to be, I thought it was a great moment. | ||
| And for that reason, you know, sort of introducing the film, I loved it. | ||
| 10 out of 10 for that reason alone. | ||
| Now, I'm not gonna go, and I don't even care so much to break it down and give you a total, like, Critics review of the movie because I think just as a cultural as a cultural totem right or as a cultural artifact I think it is more important in that sense than as an artistic work And that's not to say that it's a bad movie. | ||
| I thought it was a great movie But I think it's more important in that sense I'll start off by saying at the very least the movie's been a huge box office success. | ||
| I'll read to you, this is from one of these movie sources, that says that after beating Venom's October preview record of $10 million with a $13.3 million haul last night, Joker is on its way to busting a new three-day high for the month of $92 million after a $39 million opening day. | ||
| So, in other words, the Thursday preview... I guess this is a new phenomenon. | ||
| I talked about this, I think, on Wednesday. | ||
| It beat the record for that, which is the October for a preview night. | ||
| Got $13.3 million. | ||
| The previous high was $10. | ||
| It busted... it's on its way to busting the three-day record. | ||
| It's projected to get $92 million for the whole weekend because it got $39 million so far today. | ||
| So it's a pretty big movie. | ||
| Pretty big for this month. | ||
| I guess this month is not a very big movie month. | ||
| You know, we know summer is really when movies are supposed to smash records and things like that. | ||
| That's when all the big blockbusters come out. | ||
| But as an ostensibly sort of thriller type It's a movie about a villain. | ||
| Maybe it fits into a Halloween-type theme. | ||
| You know, maybe that's why it did well in October, but it's on its way to beat records. | ||
| The source goes on, it says, quote, yes, that's an opening day record for October 2, besting Halloween's $33 million. | ||
| If Joker's three-day estimates remain serious, it will mark the fourth highest opening for an R-rated picture of all time, after Fox's Deadpool, Deadpool 2, and the movie It. | ||
| So it's a very successful film already, which to me is great, in spite of what has been said about the movie. | ||
| You know, maybe as noteworthy as the movie itself has been the buzz or the rumors about a potential attack or potential violence that might accompany the movie, because of course, the last time a, uh... | ||
| Well it's really not the last time. | ||
| I was gonna say the last time a Batman movie came out we had a mass shooting but that's actually not true because you had Batman versus Superman and you had one other movie I think you had Justice League I think had Batman in it so that's not actually true. | ||
| Maybe the last franchise that had the Joker in it. | ||
| Well wait that's not even true either because Suicide Squad came out also. | ||
| Hmm, I should have thought this through more. | ||
| But yeah, that's kind of funny. | ||
| Well, they said that there was going to be a shooting because, of course, you had the Dark Knight Rises shooting in 2012, right? | ||
| And the Joker wasn't in that movie, but there was a shooting because in the Dark Knight, the movie that came before that one in 2009 had the Joker in it. | ||
| So there's a big mass shooting at the midnight screening of that movie. | ||
| That's funny though, I never really thought about that. | ||
| They had movies with Batman and the Joker in it since then, but why no fear about that, right? | ||
| I didn't even think about that. | ||
| Suicide Squad came out. | ||
| That had the Joker in it. | ||
| Like I said, you had Batman vs. Superman. | ||
| You had Justice League. | ||
| So what the hell? | ||
| Why no mass shooting for those? | ||
| Why no... Why no alert about a mass shooting for those? | ||
| Really makes you think, doesn't it? | ||
| But in any case, you know, they think that because it's a movie about a loner who gets radicalized, there's gonna be this mass casualty event. | ||
| And in spite of these rumors, the movie's doing pretty well. | ||
| Uh, the reviews are pretty much mediocre actually. | ||
| Some are saying that the movie is the best ever. | ||
| You know, a lot of good reviews are pouring in. | ||
| And when it premiered at some of these film festivals, uh, last month it got really high marks. | ||
| And only since it premiered at the film festivals has the rating gone down. | ||
| I think it started out at well over 90% on Metacritic and Rotten Tomatoes, but... | ||
| Since it got screened for more critics and since it came out on Thursday and today, the ratings just keep going down. | ||
| It was at like 90-some percent and now it's at 69% on Rotten Tomatoes, 66% on Metacritic. | ||
| Of course the audience review scores are like 90%. | ||
| They remain very high and like I said at the opening of the show, at the top of the show, I attribute this obviously to very salty political people You know, like I said, I read a lot of the reviews, and a lot of the reviews don't even talk about the movie itself. | ||
| Almost all the critics, almost all the reviews from femoids or from these cosmopolitan-type publications, they're not even talking about the acting or the cinematography or the screenplay or, you know, normal metrics for how you might judge a film as an artistic project. | ||
| Instead, like I'm about to do, they're talking about the political message. | ||
| They're talking about the social commentary. | ||
| They're talking about the, perhaps, social or political consequences of the movie, right? | ||
| And how that might frame our current situation, right? | ||
| How that might frame certain actors in our society. | ||
| And I'm talking about violent actors, not, obviously, movie actors. | ||
| And what this says about our society, which I find to be pretty interesting, specifically. | ||
| So don't be dismayed, don't be swayed if the reviews are bad. | ||
| Critics are retards, we know this. | ||
| And if they don't like the message, if they think it transgresses a political message or something, well then it has to be bad. | ||
| We have to give it a thumbs down so that that will dampen, perhaps. | ||
| That will suppress turnout. | ||
| Very similar to an election, actually, when you think about it, right? | ||
| But like I said, I enjoyed the movie. | ||
| To sort of just give a very short review, I'm not going to spoil anything. | ||
| I'm not going to give any spoilers about the ending or anything like that. | ||
| I'll just tell you very generally that it was a fantastic movie. | ||
| You know, I'm not going to spend too much time talking about it, like I said, like a critic. | ||
| But, you know, at a very technical level, it was a good movie in the sense that the cinematography was good. | ||
| The acting was good. | ||
| Things like this were good. | ||
| You know, it was very competent on that level, right? | ||
| And beyond that, I thought it was a fantastic movie for a lot of people that are saying, well, it's hollow or it had a bad story or something like that. | ||
| I think this is all politically motivated. | ||
| I think Joaquin Phoenix was great. | ||
| I think everybody expected that. | ||
| He's a fine actor. | ||
| I've seen him in a lot of movies. | ||
| Uh, you know, and if you saw even the trailers, I think even the trailers would communicate to you the idea that this is a serious Joker attempt, unlike Suicide Squad, right? | ||
| Which was not so great. | ||
| Us gamers understand this. | ||
| You know, so I thought he was great in the movie. | ||
| I thought the plot was great. | ||
| I thought the acting was great, dialogue, everything. | ||
| It was entertaining, and I thought it was really a thinker. | ||
| It really drove home a message about, I think, mental illness, about people that are alone in society. | ||
| And I think that's probably why a lot of people had a problem with it, because a movie like this, for what it's worth, we all know the basic premise. | ||
| It's a guy, and you could, you know, you could probably discern this from the trailers. | ||
| This is not a huge spoiler or anything, but it's about a guy who clearly has mental illness, and he becomes the Joker. | ||
| And the Joker is a supervillain, right? | ||
| So we know that He starts out as just a guy, he gets beat up, this is in the trailer, and he becomes the Joker, and the Joker is a villain, the Joker is a bad guy. | ||
| And so the project of the movie is, and this is why I think it has a lot of curiosity for so long, and maybe why some people resent the movie, is because in a lot of ways there is a somewhat sympathetic portrayal of a mentally ill white man, a mentally ill straight white man, | ||
| Who's in the society, gets beat up, he's portrayed as a victim, and we're supposed to feel somewhat sympathetic, at least in the beginning of the movie, and it's supposed to show us, you know, how somebody who is victimized and brought down, somebody we might sympathize with, turns into a monster, turns into a villain. | ||
| For obvious reasons. | ||
| Maybe you could understand why that would be problematic in the modern day. | ||
| Why there might be a huge rumor, why there might be DOD memos floating around about how this might sponsor mass shootings. | ||
| Because, you know, one of the biggest things that's been going on in the last 10, 15, 20 years is the phenomenon of the mass shooter. | ||
| And the question, as always, is how do we fix this? | ||
| How does this happen? | ||
| How does somebody do something like this? | ||
| How could somebody do something so cold-blooded? | ||
| You know, that's a line in the movie. | ||
| And so I'm sure that's why a lot of people might have a visceral reaction, either negatively, because they fear what it might inspire, or they fear the sympathies that might be garnered from this, or positively, because it's opening a conversation. | ||
| Perhaps this is shining a little bit of light on a problem, mental illness, people that slip through the cracks. | ||
| That people might be experiencing themselves or they know about secondhand or maybe at an academic level they discuss these things. | ||
| You know, so that's to me why it's so controversial and that really brings me to... | ||
| The fundamental point, which is the socio-political message of the film and the ramifications for it all. | ||
| You know, there's buzz about the mass shooting and everything. | ||
| What does it say about, and I hate to say it, but what does it say about the society that we live in? | ||
| You know, we have to throw that in there. | ||
| It is sort of obligatory. | ||
| What does it say about our country, I should say, or the media, or the culture? | ||
| Broadly speaking, what does it say about the place that we live in that a movie like this is billed dangerous? | ||
| It's deemed dangerous. | ||
| And they have a police presence now and I think just about every major metropolitan area where this film is showing. | ||
| There are reports, for example, that in New York City they're sending undercover NYPD agents in the screenings of this movie this weekend because they fear a mass shooter. | ||
| I read a report from West Virginia where they said there was a heightened police presence. | ||
| When I was at the screening last night, there was a police car stationed outside the movie theater. | ||
| And so you have to ask yourself, why is the government taking it this seriously? | ||
| Why is it that the media, and the critics in particular, feel the need to deter people from seeing it by giving it bad reviews and hyping up this paranoia? | ||
| Why must there be, and we'll talk about maybe another angle for why this is happening, but you know, just at maybe a superficial level, We have to ask ourselves, why is it that a simple... It's a movie, for what it's worth. | ||
| It's entertainment. | ||
| It's about a comic book character. | ||
| Why is it that a movie like this causes this kind of thing to happen? | ||
| You realize it's about us! | ||
| It's because of us! | ||
| It's because of our online Twitter circles, and... You know, I'm speaking very broadly, not exactly me and people watching this show, but people that exist in this ostensibly counter-cultural space, That are opposed to feminism, that are opposed to the system, the establishment, the status quo, whatever you want to call it, but the mainstream, it is because of us. | ||
| You know, it's not like it's accidental that it's the Joker movie that causes this. | ||
| They really do fear this movie because we meme the Joker. | ||
| Because in our communities, what does the Joker represent? | ||
| He is an insane guy that is the ultimate gamer, he'll say the n-word, You know, and he has a problem with women, and he also happens to be, in the Dark Knight, a terrorist. | ||
| And so because we meme about the Joker and talk about it, is for this reason, they fear this group would be inspired by this character, in this film, to do something terrible. | ||
| And so it reminds me of something Tucker Carlson said recently at, uh, I forget where he was at, he was at some speaking event, and he said, you know, having people that are not having sex in the society, the incel thing in particular, the elites fear that. | ||
| That's why they have everybody smoking pot. | ||
| That's why they're sort of medicating the population because they fear this resentment, in other words, dissatisfaction. | ||
| A lot of people are trying to make this movie about incels in particular. | ||
| After seeing the movie, it really wasn't about incels. | ||
| And in general, I don't think this phenomenon is unique to incels. | ||
| We're talking broadly about resentment, bitterness, dissatisfaction, alienation. | ||
| That's what the movie's about. | ||
| That's what this community is about, that they fear. | ||
| And to me, you have to ask yourself, why would the society fear a movie that is about people that are alienated? | ||
| And specifically about white men that are alienated, right? | ||
| Because we see movies about alienation all the time. | ||
| We see movies about black people that are alienated, you know? | ||
| Aw, shit, can't catch a break, you know? | ||
| Still a nippa, right? | ||
| I'm still black, I'm still in the society, right? | ||
| I'm still oppressed. | ||
| You know, in the trailers before The Joker, we saw a trailer about, who is it? | ||
| Harriet Tubman. | ||
| You know, so it's not like they can't make movies about people that are marginalized. | ||
| It's not like they can't make movies about people that are alienated. | ||
| They make movies about homosexuals that are alienated. | ||
| They make movies about disabled people that are alienated, you know, people in wheelchairs. | ||
| They make movies about women, about Muslims. | ||
| They make movies about Jews, you know, people that don't quite fit in, people that aren't quite there, you know. | ||
| And in a lot of these movies, to be fair, it's a triumph. | ||
| In some cases, there's even violence. | ||
| But in particular, they fear this kind of a movie. | ||
| And to me, they fear that because they know that it is really, really bad out there. | ||
| That's the bottom line. | ||
| It is a tacit admission of the media, of the government, of all these mainstream forces. | ||
| When they're telling you that this movie is dangerous and they have to have a police presence and all this, it is a tacit admission that, in a way, everything is just as bad as it seems. | ||
| And they know that all it's gonna take, in some case, you know, we don't know if it's gonna be this one or in another time, but they know that something as simple as the release of a film like this with a meme, you know, the Joker as the titular character, rising up in the movie, That could be enough to set off the whole thing. | ||
| They know that could be the match, that could be the spark that lights a big fire. | ||
| And to me, that is the biggest condemnation, that is the biggest indictment of the system itself, that they fear something like this. | ||
| Because if everything that they were saying is true, that things are getting better, right? | ||
| I mean, that's the message, is progress. | ||
| That everything's getting better. | ||
| Things were bad before it was the dark ages practically before because of a variety of things, you know? | ||
| Because of racism and bigotry and sexism and ignorance and whatever. | ||
| And a host of even economic factors, you know? | ||
| Because of, you know, eat or be eaten capitalism and wealth inequality and things like this. | ||
| You know, we are heading towards Progress. | ||
| We are headed towards a better, we're being better, and we're going to make the country more equal, and so on. | ||
| You know, if all that were true, a movie like this could come out and nothing would really matter, right? | ||
| And particularly a movie about a straight white man. | ||
| If what they said about white people were true, that you're doing okay, and you're doing more than okay, you're privileged, you're doing fine, you're doing better than anybody. | ||
| If all they were saying about the country were true, that everything's okay, That everything's fine, there's no need to panic, there's no need to smash the box and, you know, pull the emergency lever. | ||
| If all that were true, they wouldn't fear a movie like this. | ||
| A movie like this would come out, and it would be seen as the piece of art that it is, about those unfortunate people that do happen to slip through the cracks. | ||
| Because, you know, in any society, you have people that slip through the cracks, right? | ||
| In any society, you have mentally ill, indigent people that are at risk, right? | ||
| You've had that for as long as we've had societies, as long as we've had civilizations. | ||
| And that's all it would be considered as, like any other movie like this. | ||
| It would just be one among the rest in that genre. | ||
| And particularly, if it was a white man, it would be about, oh, a fictional character. | ||
| The Joker. | ||
| It's really a shame about him. | ||
| And what does that say about the perhaps Joker that's inside of us, you know? | ||
| I think maybe we'd look at it in an academic way, right? | ||
| But that's not been the reaction. | ||
| The reaction has been fear. | ||
| The reaction has been widespread panic. | ||
| And the reaction from our people, from our side of Twitter, has been a lot of excitement, enthusiasm. | ||
| And that's because things are just as bad as they say they are. | ||
| It's bad as it is in this movie. | ||
| It's as bad as we say it is, and specifically for the white man. | ||
| They fear this because there are so many alienated, disenfranchised, disillusioned white people out there who have nothing left to lose. | ||
| That's what the movie is about. | ||
| It's a guy that's mentally ill. | ||
| He's not taken care of. | ||
| He's given no affection, no love, no family. | ||
| Somebody who becomes radicalized. | ||
| And by the way, and this is sort of interesting in the movie, And I don't think this is a big spoiler because we know the character, the Joker, it's not a movie that's about... Some people say the movie is about incels. | ||
| Some people say, I think Tim Pool said this very stupidly, that the movie is about Antifa. | ||
| The movie does not have like a partisan political message. | ||
| The Joker is not like a partisan political character. | ||
| It's about a guy who simply is motivated by nihilism. | ||
| Somebody who just has nothing and therefore there's sort of this surreal striking back at society because of that. | ||
| You know, this surreal sort of violence. | ||
| In a way, it's everything that we say about mass shootings. | ||
| It's what we say about terrorism. | ||
| things like this. | ||
| And they know that there are so many people out there who are feeling that way, who have no warmth, who have nothing left to lose, people that have been kicked to the curb, people that are so nihilistic that surreal acts of violence become attractive or interesting or a source of curiosity. | ||
| They know that something like this might be just the thing that's going to push people over the edge. | ||
| And... | ||
| And I think that tells you exactly how they view us, and exactly how we should view the world around us, which is we are headed towards very bad times. | ||
| That's why they hate this movie, because this is an indictment of the critics themselves. | ||
| It's an indictment of the media, it's an indictment of the government, of Hollywood. | ||
| Now again, you might have to ask yourself what might be the other motivation for things like this. | ||
| What might be the other motivation for a PSYOP attack, right, or the media, or even this film being created, right? | ||
| What might be the motivation for creating a movie about a white guy who becomes radicalized and then becomes a villain? | ||
| What might the government gain from something like this happening? | ||
| What might the media gain from something like this happening? | ||
| They've been saying for months and months, based on, by the way, zero credible threats, And not even really a credible thesis, right? | ||
| The idea that they've been peddling is that this is the incel movie, so incels are gonna go and shoot it up. | ||
| Well, how does that make any sense, right? | ||
| If you're an incel, right, or if you're, you know, one of these people that they're talking about, one of these white people that's alienated, maybe you don't even have to be an incel. | ||
| But according to this narrative, according to this idea, this is supposed to be the favorite movie of the people that commit terrorist attacks, so they're going to go to the movie that they would want to see? | ||
| They're going to go to the movie that they would like, with other people who share the same interests, or are maybe feeling the same way, and shoot those people? | ||
| Like, it makes no sense. | ||
| But they've been peddling that, and again, based on no credible threats by the way, I haven't seen anybody saying they're going to carry out an attack. | ||
| And there have been a lot of people on our side of Twitter that have been profiled by the FBI. | ||
| No joke. | ||
| I've seen already that a couple of my friends got a visit. | ||
| You know, so it's not like anybody's been talking about any kind of attack. | ||
| And the idea of an attack would be ridiculous. | ||
| If anything, they would go and shoot up a movie about, I don't know, like women, right? | ||
| If anything, they'd go shoot up a romantic comedy. | ||
| You know, the thesis doesn't even make that much sense, right? | ||
| Hypothetically, there were a guy out there who had some bad ideas, This would be the movie that he would want to see. | ||
| And, you know, it would be other people too. | ||
| It would be people like him seeing the same movie. | ||
| Why would he want to go and kill these people? | ||
| It's not like it's gonna be girls that are gonna see this movie, right? | ||
| It's not like it's gonna be, like, liberals that go and see this movie. | ||
| According to the theory, it's gonna be people like the shooter. | ||
| So, you know, it doesn't add up. | ||
| But in spite of that, they have been pushing this paranoia for months. | ||
| And every time they do, people are like... I mean, I kind of see it. | ||
| Like, you know, Dark Knight shooting happened, and it's the same character, but... | ||
| I mean, it's like there's been a credible threat, right? | ||
| And it doesn't even make any sense, but yet they've been pushing it and pushing it for weeks and weeks, and nothing happened yesterday. | ||
| And nothing's happened so far tonight, right? | ||
| I mean, I haven't, I haven't been watching Twitter. | ||
| I, you know, maybe I'm speaking too soon here. | ||
| Maybe something's happening as I say this, right? | ||
| But so far there hasn't even been, there's been nothing, right? | ||
| I mean, nobody's even been arrested or interrogated or anything like that, you know? | ||
| But in spite of that, they've been pushing that. | ||
| You've got to ask yourself, maybe there's an endgame there in itself. | ||
| You know, on the one hand, we can look at that and say that, at the very least, it's credible for some people because it's totally, like I said, an indictment of the system and how many people are slipping through the cracks. | ||
| But on the other side, you know, maybe this is all being peddled. | ||
| Maybe this is all being pushed for a reason so that if something does happen, and who knows who would commit something like this, you know, Maybe it's the government, maybe it's MKUltra, maybe it's the CIA, right? | ||
| It's something like this. | ||
| That when something like this does happen, well, the seed has been planted, and when they're ready to use that as a pretext for widespread censorship, gun confiscation, you know, whatever, would follow up something like this. | ||
| Maybe some kind of regulation on film, regulation on media, something like this. | ||
| You know, then people would find that easier to digest. | ||
| So I would say be on the lookout. | ||
| I'm not saying that nothing's gonna happen. | ||
| I'm saying that nothing authentic is gonna happen. | ||
| Nothing organic is gonna happen. | ||
| Nothing about any of this hype has been totally organic. | ||
| It's all been coming from the top for the reasons I outlined previously on a meta-political level, but also because everybody on the top would stand to gain from something like this happening. | ||
| And every time people at the top have something to gain from acts of so-called stochastic violence, It always seems to be pulled off right? | ||
| It always seems to happen and it always seems to have connections to the intelligence community right? | ||
| So I would say be on the lookout and you know always be cautious in any scenario anywhere you go into a public place these days but I would say that maybe perhaps another reason a movie like this was created | ||
| and promoted and this this buzz these rumors have been uh astroturfed is because they are trying to meme something that is not quite there right they are trying to push something on us in pursuit of some kind of policy agenda so i wouldn't rule it out but i would rule out any kind of organic happening whatever if anything happens whatever happens this weekend i would say it's gonna require a lot of scrutiny because nobody's really concerned about this except for very suspicious characters in the media right but in any case | ||
| You know, all of the political stuff aside, at the bottom line, it's just a great movie. | ||
| It's entertainment. | ||
| You know, I said this about the recent Quentin Tarantino movie. | ||
| It's a rare occasion when you can go to the movies and see a movie that doesn't have any kind of overt left-wing political programming, you know? | ||
| So at the end of the day, All this notwithstanding, if you're just looking for entertainment, I think it satisfies this. | ||
| You know, I saw, I went on poll after the movie to see what people are saying about it, and some were saying, it has this esoteric, occult meaning, and it's like, I, to me it's a movie, it's entertainment, all right, you know, and it's so rare that you get a piece of media that doesn't have pause straight up injected overtly in every scene, and the Quentin Tarantino movie was like this, this movie was like this. | ||
| You know so at the end of the day, I think it qualifies even just for pure entertainment And it was a good film, and it was totally satisfying you know I was watching the trailer on repeat all day getting ready for it And so did you see all the scenes we've seen in the trailer and to see the grand finale? | ||
| It was so satisfying to see a true gamer rise up. | ||
| You don't get a lot of media moments like this, so it did live up to the hype in my opinion. | ||
| If you've been following any of this, if you have been watching the trailers, trust me it's going to be cracked up to what you expected. | ||
| I was nervous that it wasn't going to. | ||
| I was nervous that either it would be not what I thought it was, like it would have some kind of bad message or you know there'd be some kind of like Twist at the end or something, or I thought that it wasn't going to be as good as people were saying, but I was wrong. | ||
| No, it totally met my expectations and actually surpassed them. | ||
| I had a great time. | ||
| Great outing at the theater. | ||
| It's not for children, I will say. | ||
| Going into the theater, and this is so classic. | ||
| I probably showed up like an hour early. | ||
| Me and my friend showed up an hour early to the show and so we saw all the people who saw the screening before us leaving the theater because the earlier showing was still going on and we got to the screening room and You know also it was important to check out the people leaving and I was trying to I was trying to see if I could clock anybody who might be a threat you know I was trying to gauge did I go to the right theater did I you know properly assess based on uh you know maybe socioeconomic status and ethnic makeup did I properly | ||
| Triangulate the theater that has the lowest risk value for a potential happening, you know So I was trying to clock and see who's coming out of the audience. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Well, there's a couple of Mexican guys That's probably safe, you know, okay. | ||
| I think there's a black guy. | ||
| He's okay a couple of women Yeah, I mean, let's not even right and so I was watching all these people coming out and then I saw and this is so classic I saw this Mexican family coming out and they had like toddlers with them and And I don't know if you've seen this before, but this is so classic. | ||
| I've been going to the theater. | ||
| I mean, I'm a lover of the theater. | ||
| I love going to the movies. | ||
| Always have. | ||
| And it's always been the phenomenon that every time you go to, like, an R-rated movie, it's... they always bring... it's minorities. | ||
| They always bring their little kids there. | ||
| And to me, that's just so irresponsible. | ||
| But it's... you always see that. | ||
| I mean, can anybody relate to this? | ||
| You know, they came out like a kid that must have been not older than five years old. | ||
| And this is a graphic movie. | ||
| It's an R-rated movie, first of all. | ||
| And beyond that, I mean, it's graphic. | ||
| It's not like the most violent movie I've ever seen before. | ||
| But there's a lot of blood. | ||
| There's a lot of stuff. | ||
| There are themes that you're just not ready for when you haven't hit puberty yet, you know? | ||
| And so to see that family come out, I was just like, but it's so typical. | ||
| I've seen that probably a million times before. | ||
| You know, my parents, when I was that age, we had to go to this website called With Kids In Mind, and they would assign a score for every movie based on language, sexual content, and violence. | ||
| And so when I was like in grade and middle school, they would have to, well, we'll pull it up on With Kids In Mind, and if it had a very low sexual score, I could go see it, you know? | ||
| It could be high in language, high in violence, my dad would take me to see it, but if it had high sexuality, he wouldn't take me. | ||
| You know, I guess this movie qualified, but five years old, that's a little young, so I wouldn't see it with children, but it was definitely lived up to the hype. | ||
| If you're a gamer, if you're a volcell, an incell, if you're a, you know, right-wing person, a dissident, something like that, it's gonna be the movie for you. | ||
| But, you know, I could not... | ||
| I could not watch the movie unfold without a deeper sense of satisfaction because of, again, what it represents. | ||
| It is an indictment of the system, the movie itself, and the reaction to it, you know? | ||
| They are saying, it is that bad, you have nothing to lose, and something like this, something so minor, could push you over the edge, you know? | ||
| And I think, in some ways, they are right. | ||
| They are right. | ||
| It's not... I'm not trying to justify it. | ||
| I'm not trying to rationalize it, just like the movie. | ||
| I'm not trying to glorify this, like the movie. | ||
| I'm simply telling it the way it is. | ||
| holding up a mirror to the society people don't like that you know they don't like uh when they see how ugly things are but that's what it is so that's joker uh go see it this weekend i'm gonna see it a second time definitely maybe a third time we're gonna take a look at our super chats we'll see what you guys are saying about all this uh what's your feeling we'll take a look here we've got barry who says joker was great By the way, that super chat on Wednesday was just me memeing and being edgy. | ||
| Future employers, please hire me. | ||
| I'm a good guy. | ||
| Barry says, oh and hey Nick, you get what you deserve. | ||
| I do get what I deserve, I think. | ||
| Josiah says Joker was great except for the mixed-race stuff. | ||
| You know, I didn't even mind that. | ||
| I didn't even mind that. | ||
| There is a mixed-race thing, but um... | ||
| You know, to me, it's actually fitting because it's the 1980s. | ||
| The movie takes place in the 1980s. | ||
| And so to have two marginalized people, which makes sense. | ||
| I guess in the 80s it makes a little bit more sense than it would today. | ||
| You know, black people are probably more, you know, minorities as a category, just in strict numbers terms, or more of a oddball, so to speak, than they are today. | ||
| So to have him be a loner, and be poor, and to happen to see a black girl, you know, To me, my problem is not even so much a woman protagonist or a race-mixed couple in a movie. | ||
| My problem is when it is obviously a political agenda. | ||
| Is it impossible that a mixed-race relationship happens? | ||
| Of course not. | ||
| In every case, is that something deserving of scorn and ridicule in media? | ||
| I don't think so. | ||
| You know, so I think in the context of this movie, it was actually somewhat appropriate for this character. | ||
| You know, would we expect that it would be some white bombshell that he falls in love with? | ||
| I mean, that would be ridiculous, right? | ||
| So to me, I think that it was an interracial relationship. | ||
| I think that actually plays into the fact that he was a loner, out there, sort of not normative, right? | ||
| Because an interracial relationship then was not normative. | ||
| It was weird. | ||
| It was out there and all that in 1981 when the movie takes place. | ||
| So I think it was actually somewhat fitting. | ||
| It, you know, it was not the ideal form of what an American relationship would look like, right? | ||
| So I think it actually worked, you know, but autists, spurs are gonna say, mixed race, they don't like that. | ||
| I mean, I understand, but, uh, I think in the context of the movie, it was appropriate. | ||
| Uh, whereas, the army says, hey Nick, our family dog passed away yesterday. | ||
| Can Dante get some respects? | ||
| Pressed for the knickers? | ||
| Uh, yeah, big F for your dog, big guy. | ||
| Sorry to hear that. | ||
| Tyler says, did you stare at his bulge? | ||
| Be honest. | ||
| His, who's bulge? | ||
| Joker's bulge? | ||
| I don't know what that even means. | ||
| FF says, glad you're red-pilled on the Wu-Tang question, big guy. | ||
| Protect your neck is all time. | ||
| How do you rate Mobb Deep's seminal 1995 classic, The Infamous? | ||
| I'm actually, I am actually not familiar with Mobb Deep. | ||
| Cane Jeeper says we live in a society. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Stevos has had to walk five miles home after Joker and I skipped and danced down the street with That's Life playing on loop on my phone. | ||
| Biggest white pill in a while. | ||
| That's actually kind of gay, I would say. | ||
| That's um... | ||
| Kind of cringe, bro. | ||
| I hate to say it. | ||
| I mean, look, I liked it. | ||
| I put on my clown nose. | ||
| Me and my buddy, we put on our clown noses in the car after the movie, but, uh, you were dancing with That's Life playing for five miles. | ||
| What, just so you could report that to us? | ||
| Look at me. | ||
| I'm so quirky, though. | ||
| I'm singing, and I'm quirky, and I'm dancing the whole way home. | ||
| Everyone's gonna laugh when I tell them how quirky I am. | ||
| Me? | ||
| When I saw it, I danced the whole way home! | ||
| Aren't I the quirkiest in the world? | ||
| Yeah, so that's a little cringe. | ||
| I mean, it was good, but that's cringe. | ||
| MH says, Epic Vapers and Epic Gamers unite as one. | ||
| Yeah, no. | ||
| Sorry, I do not endorse vaping. | ||
| Channalee says, you get what you deserve. | ||
| Yeah, truly, truly. | ||
| Unpossible says the amount of negative articles by the MSM about how Joker is bad pretty much guarantees that the movie was good. | ||
| They know it's too on-the-nose. | ||
| Yeah, some might say. | ||
| Boopers says Joker critics prove that the elites will diminish anything we like. | ||
| It also proves they pay very close attention to us. | ||
| Very true as well. | ||
| Yeah, man, the ending was so great. | ||
| It really was. | ||
| They say it doesn't glorify, you know, who we are, but it so does! | ||
| But it so does. | ||
| It totally glorifies. | ||
| Maybe if you're like a neurotypical person, it doesn't. | ||
| Like, me and my buddy were laughing during the whole movie. | ||
| We were joker laughing during the whole thing. | ||
| We were getting such a kick out of it. | ||
| And I can tell not everybody in the audience was feeling the same way, you know? | ||
| When all this, like, brutal violence is happening, me and my buddy, we're like clapping, we're laughing, and everyone else is like, oh, I don't know, that's a little hardcore, you know? | ||
| That's a little disturbing, I think. | ||
| So I have to say that... | ||
| I would have to say that, yeah, maybe that was just us. | ||
| Spexo says Joker was good, but overhyped. | ||
| What are the parties of admission to see Robert? | ||
| Okay, I'm not going to read that, and I'm not going to spoil anything. | ||
| But, you know, I really hate people that do this, by the way. | ||
| It was good, but it was overhyped and I'm gonna spoil it for everybody, you know people like you people like you should be put in jail Blances, can I get some season chat for curves? | ||
| So my stats exam I definitely failed yesterday. | ||
| That's a big curve. | ||
| Thanks in advance, bro I remember when I was concerned about the curve. | ||
| I had a calc class in college, and I was like, relied heavily on the curve, because I would just like get 70% on every test, or 60, or whatever. | ||
| And everyone else did just as badly as I did in most cases, so we would get a big curve. | ||
| Yeah, I remember when I had to put up with that back when I was a school cuck. | ||
| Sherilyn hates his taxi driver, similar to Joker and a better movie. | ||
| Uh, yeah, I agree with that. | ||
| White Eagle says, Dick, have you seen the trailer for JoJo Rabbit? | ||
| Uh, no. | ||
| Saw Ross says the Joker n-word Twitter page was a big letdown. | ||
| See, I wasn't let down because I never bought into it. | ||
| I knew from the beginning that it was going to be a corny, stupid thing. | ||
| Never retweeted it, never followed. | ||
| You guys buy into those novelty accounts so quickly and then you get surprised when it turns out, oh, Turns out that mainstream novelty account was cringe and it's run by a LGBT person? | ||
| Wow, that's so shocking! | ||
| Yeah, so I wasn't surprised. | ||
| Yeah, big agree. | ||
| Yeah, that was such an awesome moment for a lot of reasons, you know? | ||
| Bridge builders just catch me in entitled white male in a suit harassing women with French fries on the 2 a.m. train. | ||
| Yeah, that was such an awesome moment for a lot of reasons, you know. | ||
| It was a great scene because, number one, I could relate to those guys who are doing that. | ||
| But then by the same token, it was like those guys were chads. | ||
| They were chads and harassing women and it was like, that was epic. | ||
| But it was even more epic what happened next, because who won in the end? | ||
| The gamer, right? | ||
| So, anyway. | ||
| Josh Sarris has honestly wanted to cry when Joker talked about no one caring if he died because he's not important. | ||
| We are not a protected class and people even cheer that we're dying out and overdosing on drugs. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Exactly right! | ||
| That's why it was a movie for us! | ||
| It was about us! | ||
| And I don't want to spoil anything, but a satisfactory ending. | ||
| Whitehotep says, what's so funny? | ||
| Me thinking about the peepee poopoo super chat. | ||
| You wouldn't get it. | ||
| Yeah, that's what I told my mom. | ||
| I was like, Mom, are you going to see the movie? | ||
| And she's like, I don't know. | ||
| Should I? | ||
| And I was like, you wouldn't get it, you know? | ||
| And she's like, yeah, I probably wouldn't. | ||
| I was like, Mom, but that's the line from the movie. | ||
| But it's the line from the movie. | ||
| It all comes back, right? | ||
| So so Kino, you know me and my buddy we were just dying every time he was like running down a corridor Or when he put on the nose he did the thing from the trailer Uh the dancing. | ||
| I mean it was moments like that. | ||
| It was just such a It was so perfect such a Kino moment, you know, I was so happy. | ||
| I thought I was gonna die I legitimately thought I was gonna get killed In a shooting. | ||
| I'm not joking. | ||
| The media, they got in my head. | ||
| They dunked on me, you know. | ||
| I have anxiety, so they played into that, right? | ||
| I told my buddy, I said, I'd literally rather be in Afghanistan right now than be sitting in this theater. | ||
| I think we'd be safer if we were at a military base in Kabul than right here. | ||
| Anyway, anon says a preview to Joker was Hitler youth kid whose imaginary friend is Hitler and family is hiding a Jew looked it up and director His mom is Jewish. | ||
| Hmm We didn't get that. | ||
| Um, I didn't get that trailer when I saw it, but I've seen that trailer before and Random number nine says violently kill yourself in minecraft if you brought your joker or rather if you brought your girlfriend to see joker Uh, yeah, i'm gonna disavow that one. | ||
| That one's a little too on the nose. | ||
| But uh, yeah, I really resent people that brought their gs I you know, not gonna lie. | ||
| I I little birdie told me that somebody that we all maybe all of us know A certain somebody went to see the movie with his girlfriend. | ||
| A certain somebody said, I'm not gonna see the movie with my bros, I'm gonna see with my girlfriend. | ||
| It's somebody I know. | ||
| Little Birdy told me that. | ||
| Just a little gossip, a little rumor, but yeah, very disappointed, very disappointed. | ||
| If you go and you bring your... Look, and I'm not even joking here, understand, I'm not joking. | ||
| If you bring your girlfriend to see Joker, that is extremely cringe, alright? | ||
| What's the matter with you? | ||
| You're really not one of us. | ||
| What, are you gonna bring your wife and kids to see it too? | ||
| You're gonna bring your adult sons who are lawyers and doctors, and you're a doctor, and your wife's a doctor, and you're all rich, and you're all handsome, and you're gonna go see it? | ||
| Really? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Maybe you get what's coming to you. | ||
| Let's just say it that way, right? | ||
| So yeah, I would definitely say don't. | ||
| You gotta see it. | ||
| You gotta see it either with the bros or you see it alone. | ||
| But you can't see it if you're a woman. | ||
| I saw all these women saying, I'm gonna go see Joker. | ||
| What's the matter with you? | ||
| Britney Venti told me she's gonna go see Joker with Lauren Rose. | ||
| I rolled my eyes. | ||
| I sent her eye rolling emojis and I rolled my eyes IRL. | ||
| I'm like, it's not for you. | ||
| Sorry, but it's not for you. | ||
| I really isn't you know, maybe you'll enjoy it. | ||

| Good movie, Del. | ||
| I don't know if it was standard, bro. | ||
| Spade's guys is based Florida woman amasses arsenal. | ||
| I didn't see that. | ||
| I think it's the opposite. | ||
| I think if you're a political... we're not really like political junkies. | ||
| We're like past that, you know? | ||
| We're like autists. | ||
| flawed on that. | ||
| I think it's the opposite. | ||
| I think if you're a political, we're not really like political junkies. | ||
| We're like past that, you know, we're like autists. | ||
| You know, I think he goes normie, junkie, autist. | ||
| And the political junkies and the normies are basically in the same fictional world, They're in the same artificial universe, and there's a feedback loop sort of, right? | ||
| And we're outside of that. | ||
| Because both of them are buying into the premise. | ||
| Both of them are buying into the narrative. | ||
| The political junkies like it because that's why they have jobs, and the normies hear from the political junkies, and it's sort of this... | ||
| Self-sustaining system that is problematic, right? | ||
| But we are outside of that firmly, so I would say it's a little bit flawed. | ||
| CaneJeeper says, 20 feds watching, go neck yourselves. | ||
| All right, disavow. | ||
| We love our law enforcement. | ||

| We don't have stream labs anymore Feels like a wheel says I've got another joke What do you get when you take a cringe super chatter and invite them on the show to make fun of them? | ||
| Yeah, I feel like I'm gonna get a call. | ||
| If I do another call-in show, somebody's gonna call up and say, you're awful. | ||
| You're just like the rest of them, you know? | ||
| And then I'm gonna hang up. | ||
| And then I'm gonna hang up. | ||
| I'm gonna do the right thing. | ||
| I'll hang up. | ||
| I'm gonna go lock the door, you know? | ||
| You're awful. | ||
| You're just like the rest of them. | ||
| And I'm gonna say, you don't know anything about me. | ||
| Okay, you know, this is just cringe, bro. | ||
| Yeah, I'm glad. | ||
| Okay, you know, this is just cringe, bro. | ||
| Yeah, I'm glad. | ||
| I'm glad life is good for you, friend. | ||
| But the movie's really not for either of you. | ||
| Big Ol' says, Broke! | ||
| There is such a thing as fake news. | ||
| Woke! | ||
| There is no such thing as non-fake news. | ||
| Very true. | ||
| CIA defectors' Harvard study showed that 9 out of 10 men could tell if a man is a homosexual just by looking at his face. | ||
| It's the face buried between another man's ass! | ||
| Well, I think that's a pretty good test. | ||
| I think that's a pretty good metric. | ||
| Yeah, I would say that's maybe 10 out of 10 if that's the benchmark, right? | ||
| Carl says, oh no, no, no. | ||
| Carl says, update your fantasy football lineup. | ||
| You gotta show me how to do it. | ||
| I don't know how to do it, Carl. | ||
| My friend, that's my real friend, Carl. | ||
| Let me pull it up. | ||
| Do I have it? | ||
| I think I have it in my bookmarks. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, I got rid of it on my bookmarks. | |
| Whoops! | ||
| Yeah, you're gonna have to show me how to do it. | ||
| I don't know how to work that stupid ESPN app, all right? | ||
| Sassler says, who is your favorite black person? | ||
| My favorite black person? | ||
| Kanye West, of course. | ||
| TechnicallyMax says, Tim Pool said Joker minions were anti-FUD. | ||
| Do you agree? | ||
| No, very bad take. | ||
| Not Today says, Alex Jones says Joker was derangement propaganda, but he's wrong. | ||
| Joker race mixing and attacking his people. | ||
| I'm going psycho mode is a great message. | ||
| I agree Nate says when you say my name, can you introduce me as Joker? | ||
| Yeah, funny line from the movie Vermouth says I gots to bring it to you cowards. | ||
| It's okay. | ||
| I'm not reading that Will says we live in a society. | ||
| Yeah, true James says is it embarrassing to go to the cinema by yourself? | ||
| I don't think so I've done it a lot. | ||
| I saw Blade Runner 2049 by myself. | ||
| I saw a Quentin Tarantino movie by myself. | ||
| I saw Avengers by myself. | ||
| I saw Spider-Man by myself. | ||
| I don't think there's anything wrong with that. | ||
| I think it's fine. | ||
| I think it's great. | ||
| Here's the thing. | ||
| If you go by yourself, you can go whenever you want. | ||
| You know, you get to go whenever you want. | ||
| You know, you get to pick your show time. | ||
| You can stay as long as you want. | ||
| You can leave when you want. | ||
| You know, like for example, When I was in middle school, I would go see movies with my dad all the time. | ||
| And now it's like, you know, love my dad. | ||
| I'd love to see movies with him, but he's a baby boomer. | ||
| So he's like, well, we can't see it too late. | ||
| I want to go and see it at like 11 o'clock, you know, some of these movies. | ||
| And he's like, that's too late for me. | ||
| That's too late. | ||
| I think we did see Avengers at like midnight though, or whatever. | ||
| But typically he's like, oh, he's always carrying on if it's too late. | ||
| And I sometimes want to stay and like watch the end credits and he's like, well, okay, you know, but he never wants to get food afterwards. | ||
| He never wants to just do a night drive afterwards, you know, like I like to do. | ||
| So it's like if I want to catch a matinee, I'll be like, hey dad, like let's go see the matinee. | ||
| And I'll be like, sure, whatever. | ||
| But a lot of times I like to see these movies and I like to see them late. | ||
| Sometimes it's like my plans change, you know, I want to go get food or I want to do a night drive or whatever. | ||
| So you get a little bit more autonomy when you go and see it by yourself. | ||
| You don't have to sort of manage whatever else. | ||
| That's how I feel about it at least. | ||
| Let's see, Ramone says I'm... and also if you see with somebody else you gotta sometimes meet in the middle. | ||
| Like I went with a friend of mine to see John Wick in theaters and he lives in the city so I had to drive all the way downtown to the AMC that's like in the middle of the loop And it costs like $50 for the ticket and popcorn. | ||
| I know it's not cheap, but at least the tickets like around my neighborhood are like $12. | ||
| In the city they have like an entertainment tax, and the tickets cost more because it's in the city. | ||
| So like the tickets themselves cost like $25. | ||
| So it's like I had to drive downtown, I had to buy parking, I had to pay, you know, $20 for the ticket. | ||
| So I prefer to just go, go alone. | ||
| Ed says, I see some people trying to cope about Styx supposedly still being alive. | ||
| It's time to accept it, my fellow Knickers. | ||
| How did he do it with a spoon though? | ||
| Well, you must not have seen it. | ||
| It was pretty obvious how he did it, but it was, I mean, it was hard to watch, man. | ||
| Extremely graphic. | ||
| And just the way that he the way that he did it this sick imagination on this guy You know really depraved something must have been wrong the whole time. | ||
| You know, I guess we missed the warning signs, but Yeah, I still see a lot of people coping, you know, they're saying oh, no Nick. | ||
| He's still alive He's still alive. | ||
| When are people going to move out of this denial phase and just accept I know it's tragic but We all saw the tape. | ||
| It says the seeing is believing right? | ||
| So anyway, Ramon says I'm watching Joker tomorrow night in Texas. | ||
| Hopefully there's no false flags. | ||
| Yeah, hopefully. | ||
| There were particular warnings about Texas. | ||
| So be careful. | ||
| Oh, let's see. | ||
| Jake says, great show as always. | ||
| Thanks, boss. | ||
| Hey, thanks, bro. | ||
| Ramon says, bro, my total of Burger King was $13.50. | ||
| Wow, based. | ||
| Why are you eating at Burger King? | ||
| Burger King is totally blue pill, dude. | ||
| Bob says, so true with Mexicans bringing their kids, shaking my head. | ||
| I've seen it so many times, I can't even tell ya. | ||
|

| when he was walking in his shoes, you know, that was me. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, I was relating to that very strongly. | |
| Amira says, Nick, to Cathy, you be like, I am totally indifferent to you. | ||
| What's that? | ||
| I'm not reading that part. | ||
| It's got nothing to do with you, babe. | ||
| I'm channeling some ascendant energies. | ||
| Cathy, heart emoji, drooling emoji. | ||

| But yeah, nothing much, buddy. | ||
| What's up with you? | ||

|
unidentified
|
That's funny. | |
| My fellow. | ||
| My fellow Italian. | ||
| Us Italians, we gotta look out for each other, right? | ||
| Very true. | ||
| Uh, he was based too. | ||
| He was, I don't know if he was woke, but he was definitely based. | ||
| He voted, I think he voted for Trump. | ||
| He was a very hardcore Trump guy. | ||
| Friend of mine from high school. | ||
| Good times. | ||
| Uh, Harold says, uh, even had a headline yesterday with a warning about the potential for something to go off in a Sydney movie theater. | ||
| Mind you, Sydney is a multiracial nightmare, so I guess they are just preparing. | ||
| Yeah, probably. | ||
| Anon says, Nick, we don't want to hear a knock-knock joke. | ||
| Please. | ||
| How about another joke? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I can't! | |
| That whole scene, man! | ||
| I'm going to see it again just for that scene. | ||
| So satisfying! | ||
| How about another joke? | ||
| I think we've had enough of your jokes. | ||
| What do you get? | ||
| I'll never get over that. | ||
| I was so keen on that. | ||
| Everybody's saying, oh, it was overhyped. | ||
| It wasn't that good. | ||
| Hollywood? | ||
| Really? | ||
| No, man, it was base. | ||
| Totally satisfying. | ||
| I just read that. | ||
| Albert says the name of the movie is The Joker. | ||
| Where is the sense of humor with these critics? | ||
| Yeah, why so serious, right? | ||
| John Tortoise says, uh, went in worried about the quirky black girl in the trailer, but the movie really handled it well with those tasteful hard R's. | ||
| 10 out of 10 gamer cinema. | ||
| Yeah, that was a great moment. | ||
| The hard R moment, that was amazing. | ||
| Nico says, media hysteria made the film even better. | ||
| A learner to my left was at the edge of a seat rubbing his hands, shaking along to the violence. | ||
| At some point, a cop was checking the aisles. | ||
| Great tension. | ||
| It did add a thrilling atmosphere, didn't it? | ||
| There was a white guy who came in and moved down our aisle. | ||
| He was by himself. | ||
| He took off two jackets, and I was looking at him the whole night. | ||
| My buddy said he was laughing his ass off because he picked up on that. | ||
| He said, when that guy came down the aisle and you kept looking at him. | ||
| So, yeah, definitely. | ||
| But it's good to have situational awareness no matter what, right? | ||
| Uh, Dramatic says, me and my B&R friends just saying BASED and laughing every time he shot someone. | ||
| LMAO, what have we become? | ||
| Oh, please, don't think about it too much. | ||
| It's justified. | ||
| Me and, me and my guy were doing the same thing. | ||
| Every time, probably like every three minutes, we were just looking at each other like, yo, keynote check? | ||
| Yo, Joker check? | ||
| Vibe check on this movie? | ||
| BASED? | ||
| It's so good, man. | ||
| It's so epic. | ||
| I enjoyed it. | ||
| It was euphoric. | ||
| Simply euphoric. | ||
| Oh, let's see what we got. | ||
| Yeet says, during Joker, a boomer lady in front of me played on her phone the entire time, even after her daughter and I told her to stop. | ||
| I truly felt like Joker. | ||
| Yeah, that's obnoxious. | ||
| We didn't have any disruptions in our movie, thank God. | ||
| I would have lost my mind. | ||
| Could you imagine, you wait all this time for the premiere and then it's just like, you got something like that to put up with? | ||
| So yeah, you should have, uh, you should have given her what she deserved, right? | ||
| This shirt, this collar's all messed up. | ||
| I should have worn a v-neck so it wouldn't be such a problem, but... I, uh, I forgot. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I forgot it was casual Friday. | |
| Mike says, Jewish man brutally beats and almost kills a baby while babysitting and aids a cop killer in a prison break was scheduled for execution until Jewish groups lobbied to get him off the hook because of anti-semitism. | ||
| I didn't hear about this, but you know, nothing surprises me anymore. | ||
| No surprise there. | ||
| Artie says, I'm gonna see Joker tomorrow. | ||
| Can you also recommend to me Will Chamberlain and Brad Palumbo from Washington Examiner? | ||
| These guys are so cool! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Haha! | |
| I'm so nervous, Nick. | ||
| Please put in a good word. | ||
| Recommend me? | ||
| What do you mean recommend them for what? | ||
| For human events or for Washington Examiner? | ||
| Yeah, I'll put in a good word. | ||
| Elgato says, sorry big guy was trying to be cheap on my previous super chat and I accidentally edited out too many words. | ||
| Here, take some more cash. | ||
| Hope that makes up for it. | ||
| It does! | ||
| Hey, uh, you know what? | ||
| It does. | ||
| $10 to make up for a typo. | ||
| All is forgiven. | ||
| Thanks, buddy. | ||
| Hope the podcast is going well. | ||
| It's true, though. | ||
| Only content creators can relate to one another. | ||
| So I do appreciate your kind words. | ||
| I'm not political. | ||
| I'm just here to tell jokes. | ||
| I know you felt that. | ||
| I so did. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| You shouldn't be laughing. | ||
| And that's not funny. | ||
| It kind of feels like a thing we're always told. | ||
| Lots of moments like that. | ||
| Yeah, and even during that movie, right? | ||
| Anon says we should wear I Survived Joker 2019 shirts to CPAC. | ||
| We are veterans and braver than all the normies who didn't go out of media-hyped fear. | ||
| LMAO. | ||
| Unironically, we are braver than, you know, a lot of people. | ||
| Let's just put it that way. | ||
| We are brave for going out and risking it all. | ||
| Risking life and limb for our film, you know, so maybe that's a good idea. | ||
| Captain Testicles | ||
| says on the money as always my man keep it up well thank you captain thank you captain thank you for your service uh lord maryland says my lesbian sister converted to judaism shaking my head yikes bro that's all the way around pretty cringe gotta savor you gotta intervene or she's going to hell hyman says my dad burst out laughing after the ebon moment keno yeah so awesome bro i can't i literally haven't gotten over it yet | ||
| I have not gotten over that move yet. | ||
| I think I'm gonna go see it again tonight, maybe. | ||
| I'm gonna test my luck. | ||
| I'm gonna dare fate, right? | ||
| Because I survived one time. | ||
| You know, I thought today, maybe I'll go see a matinee tomorrow, just to be safe. | ||
| I'm feeling like I'm gonna go see it again tonight. | ||
| Why not, right? | ||
| I've got nothing left to lose. | ||
| Just like the Joker. | ||
| Anon says, stinky fart. | ||
