Joaquin Phoenix's Joker just set October records.
Warner Bros. has released the new and final trailer for the highly anticipated upcoming DC Comics adaptation Joker. I'll be perfectly honest, up until this point, I really didn't see the need for a Joker origin story, a standalone movie for the iconic supervillain, or an excuse to send the fanboys into a frenzy for all the wrong reasons by delivering an apologetic for the glorified fictional psychopath/sociopath. This trailer may have just made me a believer. The strength of this movie and how it's received will likely fall on Joaquin Phoenix's performance above all …
There's one big difference between this Joker origin story and others.
