Remember how good Joker was? Well, technically I don't, cause I never watched it. When it came out, my first thought was: "WB makes shitty movies. I'm not watching this, because even if it's good, I'll just end up becoming invested in a franchise/series that will become shit".
So what happened? Joker 2 was universally considered shit.
So who was it that avoided all of it, that didn't get invested in this thing at all, and didn't get disappointed when WB did what it was bound to do?
Me. I was right.
