Who knew Napoleon was a tall American?
July 10th, 2023 under Joaquin Phoenix. [ Comments: none ]

I don’t know much about Napoleon. I know, thanks to Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure, he was a short, dead dude, and he is from France.

However, in the upcoming movie, he will be played by Joaquin Phoenix, who is an American that stands at 5’8″ tall.

So riddle me this, Ridley Scott. Why did you cast a taller man with an American accent to play a French man with a complex over his height? You couldn’t find a shorter actor who could do a French accent?

It is Hollywood, and there are plenty of vertically challenged men who could’ve played the Emperor brilliantly.

I know. It is not about the man. It is about the beautiful scenery, the battles, and the sex. Am I the only one who doesn’t want to see Napoleon have sex? I never knew him to be a sexual icon like Henry VIII, who also suffered from a Napoleon complex between his legs.

Is this proof that Lady Gaga is Harley Quinn in Joker: Folie à Deux?
February 14th, 2023 under Batman, Joaquin Phoenix, Lady Gaga. [ Comments: none ]

There have been rumors that Lady Gaga is going to be in Joker: Folie à Deux, and today, director Todd Phillips confirmed it. However, he didn’t say what role she will be playing. But since he posted a photo on Valentine’s Day of Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix looking like they are about to kiss, we are thinking that she is Harley Quinn, the Joker’s lover.

What do you think? I think I am happy that James Gunn is running the DC Universe now because I am over these dark, psychotic movies based on the comic books. I know people loved Joker, but they are not for me. And I am a horror movie fanatic.

Oh, and I think this picture looks like two senior citizens about to sneak a kiss at their assisted living facility.

BTWF: Joaquin Phoenix in Superboy

Before Joaquin Phoenix was the Joker, he dressed as Superboy. How cute was 14-year-old in that 1989 episode?

Did Jimmy Kimmel get revenge on Joaquin Phoenix for David Letterman?
October 2nd, 2019 under Batman, Jimmy Kimmel, Joaquin Phoenix. [ Comments: none ]


Last week, there were rumors that Joaquin Phoenix was so in character on the set of Joker that he was hard to work with. Of course, no one would go on record about it.

Yesterday, when the actor was on Jimmy Kimmel Live, the ABC host asked him what it was like working on the film. He said it was a “light set” and director Todd Phillips “is really funny.” Then he added, “I feel almost guilty but we had a really good time.”

Kimmel then told his guest that was “interesting to hear” because Phillips sent the show an outtake of Phoenix bitching out the cinematographer Lawrence Sher. Since you cannot just say something like that and not show the clip, they showed the clip.

When the rant ended, Phoenix seemed to be embarrassed that that private video was shared with the show and the show, in turn, shared it with everyone. After stumbling to find the words to express his reaction to it, he finally apologized to Sher. However, he said that Sher was at fault for whispering a lot causing him to lose concentration and the mood he created for his character.

Since this is Kimmel and Phoenix, I am not sure I believe this video was real. It would not surprise me if they faked it to make people sympathize with him so he can be the second actor to win an Oscar for playing the Joker. What do you think?

Also, do you think he is starting to look like Mel Gibson?

Joker seems more about a suicidal comedian than a villain
August 28th, 2019 under Batman, Joaquin Phoenix. [ Comments: none ]


There is a new trailer out for Joker and I never thought Joaquin Phoenix could do anything worse than I Am Here. Turns out he can.

This movie looks more like one of those boring independent films that gets Oscar buzz, than a film about the notorious comic book villain. Thankfully, it is not kid-friendly because it would forever ruin the perception we have the Joker.

He is the Joker, not the Tear Jerker.

Are you going to see it on October 4th?
