[QUOTE="bushytop, post: 967934, member: 56738"] A low(er) quality Nolan film is still a considerable improvement over most cinematic output. On to The Joker, haven’t watched it yet but had heard from way back (like pre-production) that it was going to be very late 70’s/early 80’s Scorsese in style (Taxi Driver meets The King of Comedy). Everything I’ve heard since it’s release seems to go along with this. As a film student back in the day I struggled to glean much actual ‘enjoyment’ out of either while appreciating both movies for saying something profound through a very show not tell (not overly preachy) narrative. As a guy heading into middle age (my cynicism grows by the day) I’d imagine I’ll get a lot out of The Joker... and might rewatch the two Scorsese influences too. [/QUOTE]
