      If you’re referring to The Last Jedi, it made $1.3 billion on a $300 million profit. Joker 2 is set to flop.

      If you’re referring to The Last Jedi (which wasn’t nearly as bad as Joker 2 apparently is, and at least it wasn’t a fucking musical) - that was a pretty different situation with swapping directors in the middle of a trilogy, which was more of a problem with Disney than RJ imo. I’d still be confident giving RJ his own projects and coming out with a good product.

      Here Todd Phillips just proved he could go completely off the deep end with his own sequel, meanwhile telling the studio to fuck off any time they talked to him.
