Profitability is just not going to happen . The movie ’s availability in theaters has been steadily dropping and has already sunk from 4,000 available theaters to under 1,500 . pitiable reviews and painful word - of - backtalk have been a major cause for its failure . The original movie was divisive , but critic and interview were more often than not positive about the movie , bring in fresh scores in each Rotten Tomatoes category . The subsequence , however , has been most - universally reviled . The poor perception contributed to a general deficiency of interest group in seeing the movie in theaters .
Our Take On Joker 2’s Failure
This Level Of Failure Did Not Have To Happen
It is always disgraceful to see a movie fail so blatantly . The original earned over $ 1 billion , and the follow - up is likely to only earn 20 % of that . unluckily , narrative and morphological option are to blame . The determination to create a jukebox musical has proven to be a poor one , as it failed to please mirthful volume audience that have now pivoted toVenom : The Last Danceinstead . Joker : Folie à Deuxfailedbecause it did not undertake to placate its main audience and instead swear on unnecessary difference from its core formula .
