A prequel anime feature is also currently in development, and it will finally show at least some of John’s storied “impossible task” that permitted him to retire for love.

"Right now, we’re knee-deep in development on a feature anime about John Wick. It’s a prequel to the movies, which is awesome. It’s fun that it’s in a different medium."

Burbank, CA, October 22, 2024 – From acclaimed writer/director/producer Todd Phillips comes Joker: Folie À Deux, the follow-up to 2019’s Academy Award-winning Joker, which earned more than $1 billion at the global box office. The new film stars Joaquin Phoenix once again in his Oscar-winning dual role as Arthur Fleck/Joker, opposite Oscar winner Lady Gaga (“A Star Is Born”). Joker: Folie À Deux debuts for purchase and rental digitally at home on October 29.

  • On October 29, Joker: Folie À Deux will be available for early Premium Digital Ownership at home and for 48-hour rental via PVOD on participating digital platforms where you purchase or rent movies, including Amazon Prime Video, AppleTV, Google Play, Fandango at Home, and more.

The film also stars Oscar nominees Brendan Gleeson (The Banshees of Inisherin) and Catherine Keener (Get Out, Capote), alongside Zazie Beetz, reprising her role from Joker.

Phillips, who received Oscar nominations for directing, writing and producing Joker, directed Joker: Folie À Deux from a screenplay co-written with fellow Oscar nominee Scott Silver, based on characters from DC.

I'm not even bothering with a pre-order link. If you want to see a real superhero movie in October 2024, you'd be better off waiting for this instead.

I see what you did there. Very suave!

You've certainly done an outstanding job in the comments department. Not bad for someone who's only been here for 6 months!

At first it was pretty close, with the comments always being slightly ahead, but I decided I wanted them to coincide.

And this is my 1,000th Lemmy comment!

As stated in previous threads, there are lots of reasons why DVDs are still popular today:

  • Unawareness of, or indifference to, DVDs' subpar video/audio quality.
  • For most people, DVDs "just work".
  • Studios and manufacturers did a poor job of educating the public about the different formats.
  • Streaming/digital is too convenient for the public to consider physical media.
  • People are unable/unwilling to upgrade their tech.
  • DVDs are cheaper and more ubiquitous than Blu-rays and 4K UHD discs.

I haven't seen the live-action movie, so I can't say.

Chapter I seems to mostly follow the beats of the graphic novel, with some minor dialogue changes to make the movie flow better. It remains to be seen if Chapter II will include the giant squid, and I don't see any reason why it wouldn't be included.

It's a new 1:1 animated adaptation of the graphic novel, split into two parts.

Konqi and Katie have a lot of under-the-hood improvements running on Qt code. The devs gave them the ability to fly without wings. Never underestimate the power of C++!

That might have been for Kraven the Hunter, but I'm also certain that they wanted an R for this.

Maybe some plot based on a true story that focuses on the impact of the toy, à la Tetris (2023)?
