Good, his movies suck anyway. Ironic that he says he left comedy, only to do a film titled 'Joker.'

How is this guy even qualified to direct a dark comic book movie starring an Oscar caliber actor?

This is one of those "right message , wrong messenger" scernerios. Todd Phillips' Hangover sequels were cringeworthy unfunny comedies. And I couldn't even finish War Dogs it was so lackluster. But he does have a point regarding this whole "cancel culture" or "woke culture" here. Too many of these SJW get offended by anything and everything nowadays .

Generally speaking, they're just trolling under the guise of sanctimony. I'd be willing to bet that well over 50% of Twitter users who enjoy hurling 140 character sized rocks at scapegoat du jour, aren't offended by what they're feining outrage over. Why people pay so much attention to it all is beyond me.

Wahhhh! I'm unable to evolve my craft with the times, darn millennials!!!
No, but seriously, I'm tired of these damn millionaires incessantly complaining because they can't do the same old ethnic/gender/sexual orientation jokes without people hitting back. Guess it's no fun when the people whose necks your stepping on don't just take it with grace.

It appears as though he is getting a lot of shit from the SJW community for this movie as it is. Maybe he was being ironic? |

Because the current late night "comedy" which is nothing but Trump/conservative political hate is any better?

Matt Stone said the exact same thing and he’s called a hero for it. I don’t even like Phillips but you can’t deny the hypocrisy.

Make a documentary or do something with Netflix complaining about it. Make lots of money.

Millennials have no power--it is the media owners who dictate the trends.
So basically he means--the people who hire him-are the problem--but he can't bite the hand that feeds him so he obediently contributes to the divide-conquer scheme by blaming audiences.
