This week on The Collider.com Podcast, we're talking about 'Joker'. We discuss the film's influences, its inspirations, the film's trouble finding a theme, Joaquin Phoenix's performance, what the studio and the audience wants from this movie, and much more. We then finish up with Recently Watched. Also, as a brief programming note, we had to remove episode 225 due to audio issues. Those issues have now been resolved starting with this episode.
