I very much wanted to but did not like anything about The Joker. Seemed to be made on the cheap.

I couldn't name ONE memorable scene or line of dialog that will have people reminiscing about it 10 years from now?

The murder scene in his apartment is the most intense thing I’ve ever seen on film.

Visceral.

Because the point wasn’t any individual scene or dialogue.

The point of this movie was the arc of a character, and how Joe Below Average became one of the most terrifying arch villains of all time.

Where does the character begin, and where does the character end? That’s what’s memorable about this movie structurally. Artistically, Phoenix’s performance is his masterpiece.
