Trending Now
Whether you’re a fan of superhero (or villain, or antihero) movies and stories or not, it’s been tough to avoid the press surrounding the release of Joker. Joaquin Phoenix plays the title character, and by all accounts his performance is amazing – but that’s where the positives end for many (although many others seem to have loved it).
Critiques run the gamut, but the bottom line is that a certain section of filmgoers and critics worry that, instead of critiquing the culture that creates mass shooters, Joker glorifies the revenge ideal that fuels many of them.
Now, you’ll have to see the movie for yourself if you want to make up your mind (I doubt it will be a waste of your time, honestly, and could be good fodder for conversation!), but if you’re looking for some internet discourse, well…look no further than these 20 memes.
