#JoaquinPhoenix #Joker #JokerMovie - Zábava
I saw Joker last night. He took the Joker performance
to another level. It was unbelievable how he embodied the role.
Super heartbreaking movie, so much emotion. He was incredible!
Oscar worthy
2R's2L's “he did take”
@@petepeters6495 I'm pretty sure it is "took", not "take." Take is a present tense verb, while took is a past tense verb.
I thought it was amazing lived it did think when I saw trailer it could go either way but I loved it
With the amount of trauma he endured in his life he’s probably one of the few actors strong enough to play the Joker
I agree.
YUP
Took the words out of my mouth!!!
What happened to him??
Yes i agree ❤
“ can you introduce me as joker when you give me my Oscar ? “
Lol
🤣🤣🤣
ههههههه lol😂
U got it wrong. It's,"when you give me the Oscar, can you introduce me as joker?" U got it backwards
Danny Brown aa alright thank u ^^
If joaquin doesn't win the oscar ,we riot in clown masks
Sun Phoenix I’m down😂😭
Deal
Location please!!
And time
Let's fucking go
Joaquin really deserves an Oscar to be honest
I'd say he will get one for his new movie Joker . Absolutely loved how he defined that character , and he actually makes u think of that storyline In a more believable life-like way.
@@cincyfanjunglecity9871 he did such an amazing job in Joker!
He really does deserve an Oscar I watched it last night it was unbelievable how good he was. That is one dark film.
He deserves it for the Joker movie. One of the best performances I have EVER seen anyone do. The only one I've seen that compares is Eddie Redmayne in The Theory of Everything, but that's totally different.
yellowleaf Nobody is justifying anything...has anyone ever said that the joker was right for killing all those people? NO. It is and just is an origin story not an attempt to make people sympathize with a mass murderer..and if you feel otherwise then maybe check yourself out first
It is about time someone stepped up and did Heath Ledger's Joker proud.
Right! I cant wait to see his version!
i just hope he doesn't go too far and ODs like Heath
JEROME
@@alicedelgado955 oof
@@zacharyczarnik8980 technicaly not the joker.
I love how his new surname came to be “Phoenix” perfectly symbolizing his life as a rise from the ashes.
Doiteain what was his real last name?
bottom
《 furiku 》Fuck man. Even more symbolic. Started at the Bottom and rose to become a Phoenix. Legend.
Even more he’s also a Scorpio! Scorpio’s are known for rising and transforming
So true
me: knows it’s pronounced wakeen
my brain: joa quinn
ellie xo it’s not “wakeen” either. The j has a h sound with the w sound but you pronounce them separately.
That Girl Reacts oh cool I never knew
ellie xo 👍
@@thatgirlreacts5465 I am trying my best to say that wha-keen
and I'm Kanye West it’s not “wh” together like you would pronounce the word whale. It’s the “wha” together with the “h” sound you make when you say words like “heart” or “heat” or “hard”, etc.
this is random but him and his siblings names are dope as heck
Yea fr
Dope as nicknack pattywack diddlydarn heckingheck
His parents were missionaries. They traveled alot. He and his siblings were raised vegan and hippies. Not a bad thing, just different.
I love all their names 😍😍😍
Yep The Coolest Names, I have always thought that ,tx to River ,I wanted to name one of my next kids River!.
Everybody gangster in Oscar until Joaquin starts laughing on not winning
Probably someone will get shot too and there be a mutiny cus of all that.
LMFAOOOO
How bout another joke murray
Who cares, He won everyone's heart from his acting. He doesn't need a golden dildo and kiss woke Hollywood ass to get that.
*impossible*
Imagines had they gone with Leonardo Dicaprio as Joker. I mean I love Dicaprio, he's an amazing actor but I can't see anyone as Arthur Fleck after the movie except Joaquin Phoenix.
He would’ve been amazing. You’ve seen him go crazy. The Beach, Wolf of Wallstreet, The Aviator, Shutter Island, etc. He plays “off” well. He just always plays a sympathetic protagonist. Not his limitation, really.
Leo has no range
I'm not saying Leo is not a good actor but the only character imo I think he played one that close enough to resemble a broken man was The Revenant. I feel like other characters he played in a way has a certain "quirks" that makes you go oh that's classic Leo character. Like gatsby, wall street, inception, catch me if you can, once upon a time in Hollywood even shutter island. But Phoenix used to play a broken man e.g Johnny Cash in Walk the line, The master, you were never really here, her and even everyone believed he was out of his mind with I'm still here.
@@tankhuncarps What's Eating Gilbert Grape, The Aviator, and The Basketball Diaries all show his pain and struggle
Leo is a great actor, Joaquin is pure genious.
After seeing this I realised they got the right man for Joker.
@Niconacho Z I don't keep that garbage a continent's length away from Joaquin and the Joker
@Niconacho Z Honestly, I wouldn't. It is very hard for DC to make a better continue movie of that
aklordx@ your damn right they did I swear he’s the most talented actor I’ve ever seen there are some movies which I really feel he puts himself instead of the protagonist of the film

I Genuinely hope Joaquin didn't swim to deep in the Joker ocean. We don't want to lose another phoenix. No critical acclaim is worth the life
😥 seriously hoping that doesn't happen!
He's already pretty crazy just like Jack Nicholson and he's played roles just as messed up as joker in you were never really here and the master
I remember watching a biography where Jack Nicholson told leadger to see a professional after playing the joker because method actors can be damaged by the character
Sheep
Glad someone said that. 🙏💙
When u look at him you see sadness in his eyes. Now this explains it. You never fully recover from such things. You just learn to live with it and control yourself.
my life in a nutshell
@@nunothedude Lots of us, and it makes actors/movies such as this a way to embody it.
The joker was the best movie of 2019 and probably a long time. I haven’t felt like clapping at the end of a movie in a long time but this movie made me want to scream how good it was
Update: Thanks for all the likes guys :)
When I watched it the entire theatre clapped, and I've never seen that happen before
Lucca Coscarelli I clapped as most of the people did it was something that I've never felt in a cinema before
Lucca Coscarelli You obviously haven’t seen once upon a time in hollywood
Mamba Middian Gaming that was garbage
Nah best movie of 2019 was by far Avengers ENDGAME
It takes a broken man to play broken characters

He’s truly a shapeshifter. I literally had NO idea he played in so many films I’ve seen!

Youce missed some great acting!
Joaquin is coming for that Oscar!
And when they introduce he will be called JOKER!
1000 Subs without no content Joaquin doesn’t care about the oscars 😂
He should have had it for "Walk the Line". Guy was robbed.
Edward Norton is conna beat the shit out of joaquin
You wanna know how I got these "oSCARs"
His sister lives right by me... he comes and visits her quite often, we respect his privacy when he's here and have never spoken to him, just waved as we pass each other going to our cars...
That's so thoughtful of you☺️
is that Rain?
Wow
Sonja Malcolm wow
Where in LA?
“He is notoriously private and evasive in interviews” Mojo: lets destroy that
Sarah 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
'I'm bout to end this man's whole career'
They didn't really reveal anything the world didn't already know. I've read all this stuff over the years starting in the River days. The only thing that was mildly revelatory perhaps for newer fans was the sex angle of the "church" they belonged to back then. But even that has been in articles recently as 2 years ago.
Thumbs up for not using the 911 call in this clip.
Yes.. I was ready to skip past it, and so glad I didn't have to.
Robert van Piggelen amen
Sofia Aberdein Joaquin made the call to 911 when his brother died. The call is recorded but they didn’t use the call in this clip
👍👍👍
That clip should be banned, poor Joaquin and Rain that would be their worst and most terrifying moment in their life watching their much loved brother dieing in front of them, 😭😭😭😭 they dont need to be hearing that clip over and over again,
Joaquin is an amazing actor. I only hope his life gets better from here.
Yess, same!
His life has been quite better and he clearly appreciates it. He doesn’t need pity. He made it that far without it, he’s strong and capable.
It will as long as the talent continues and he keeps his belief sane and safe he will be alright.
yes he is
Brandon Breyer Why did you kill your parents?
"He's notoriously private" Here's everything about his personal life. Stay classy WatchMojo
WatchMojo would only have mentioned things that were already exposed in the internet anyway, obviously.
Were you even listening? Most of what they know is because of River. Not because of Joaquin
Hahahahaha
rojo-rojo754 yes and in doing so brought all that information to us in a short video we will watch as opposed to having to research for a hour or two which none of us would do.
Dangle City it was a funny comment dude lighten up
Truly, if Heath has given his life for the Joker, then Joaquin has given a life to the Joker.
He's strong enough to play Joker, did you not watch the video? He suffered nearly as much as Joker, he really just had to change his body and let his past out on set
Heath gave his life to be Joker, but Joaquin IS the Joker already.
@@masonfrank931 you misinterpretted Lisa Graces comment.
poppa mase
She means that he had life fit for the joker. He suffered. You have misunderstood
Can we stop comparing them? They're both really really amazing.
Is it weird that I love his voice
Same here ❤️😍 I fell in love with his voice since brother bear 🙌
Ash Johnson yeah omg soooooooo weird like wut. Pfffft
no. i do too
Ash Johnson I love his voice too
I love his voice too!!!!😍😍😍😍
He played Johnny Cash so well he should have won the Oscar.
Atticus Finch it’s too bad he was up against Phillip Seymour Hoffman, they were both brilliant
YESSS
He should've won it for The Master as well. He was better than DDL in my opinion and that's huge
I think he lost it to ledger that year. Is that correct?
@@Anna15077 no he lost it to Phillip Seymour Hoffman a few years prior
Losing his Older Brother River Phoenix is Heartbreaking.
I loved his performance in stand by me
@@kristopherjones7997 that's literally one of my favorite movies
@@winniethepooh8353 my too man
I could see river in pirate's of the Caribbean with his good friend Johnny depp
He was great in Indy 3 as young Indy. I thought the kid had a lot of potential.
I love River Phoenix.
May he rest in peace.
My fav actor ever !
I can't believe that any Joker can be better than Ledgers but it is
I mean its hard to decide but im going with ledgers but juaquin deserves a lot of praise for his performance
I don't know about better, but he sure did hold his own to that role when few can.
I would say better as well just because I prefer this version of the joker and the actor nailed it.
He did good but u can't say its better than the legendary ledger
afkueczq as much as I love ledgers joker, joaquin just takes the role to the next level and in my opinion Is the best joker ever
that Jimmy Kimmel interview is just not right and i felt bad for him but now this.
Senpai Andrew yea I cringed so hard watching that interview. How could they put him on blast like that. Like give the man his privacy
It was staged.
@@arraikcruor6407 you can see in his body language he had no fucking clue what was coming
It was supposed to hit the audience in a way that it initially did in the movie.
I thought he was extremely awkward.
Whoever sold that 911 recording should have been jailed
Nat Mas public record bud
Blame the media for over playing it just to get ratings
Ryan Rigsby True. The media say Joker is damaging, but they are the most damaging entity on the planet atm.
Which one
Nat Mas is it the one where he is cussing? The one they showed on jimmy kimmel
Give this man an oscar.
The joker left me speechless. His acting is in a whole different dimension. I had goosebumps every time his emotions switched from happy to sad and back. He embodied the role, he was joker to the fullest.
Hes the most mysterious guy ive ever seen
yeah, not surprised he's a scorpio
@@aaal_1kit85 his venus is in scorpio too so that adds to it
@Maddy .I same, girl
He's just introverted and keep his life to himself. That's it. It's uncommon nowadays.
This guy is a notorious introvert, very good actor though.
So Keanu Reeves if you think about it
Melissa Yount yes him too, introverted people are usually the people’s with very high expectations from themselves, they are usually always trying to find away to evade being around others, and yes people are always questioning what are they doing on their birthdays or who are they having sex with, the introverts are huge targets for very personal questions, simply because they demonstrate happiness in isolation.
so is johnny depp. the best actors all seem to be introverts.
Mcgyver B bro this was like an accurate take on what people think of introverts
grape soda yup
River and Joaquin Phoenix has always been my all time favorite actors ❤️
Omg same. River was the best of all time and he lives on through his younger brother ❤
To bad River Phoenix never got to live long enough to see his brother Joaquin Phoenix succeeded in his acting career
Joaquins best film so far: gladiator
River Phoenix best film : stand by me
You telling me at some point his brothers name was “river bottom “
Yes.
Ok.
River Bottom, Rainbow Bottom, Leaf (Joaquin) Bottom, Liberty Bottom and Summer Bottom. Thanks God, the parents decided to change the surname to Phoenix.
@@ernaherlina8014 LOL
Long bottom:^)
I hated him so much when I watched the Gladiator, just goes to show how good he was in that movie 👍🏻
am I not merciful?!
Lol I agree
Samee
I hated him from then until I watched joker
@@daddybadbad you haven't seen enough of his films to have such a baseless opinion it would seem
I still can’t get over the fact that he was robbed of an Oscar for Walk The line
I know, right?!
what!??!i thought he won that year
He won a Grammy.
Also robbed of the Oscar for his performance in Gladiator. 😔😔
Bethany Howe Totally his role as Commodus was superior. Imagine Gladiator without such complex vilain. He should have gotten true Oscar....
"Her" is one of my favourite movies of all time.
And Joaquin is one of the main reasons this movie is so great...
I’ve just rewatched it last week, the creative idea, the acting both were phenomenal, sadly we don’t see that anymore today :(
@@maximus4009 There are plenty of unique movies, now more than ever. People just like Disney
Dude must of been through a lot I too had my big bro pass from accidental od it's tough blessings to him...loved his acting since Gladiator.
Her was a bloody amazing movie.
I love Joaquin but I couldn't finish watching that movie I thought it sucked
She said “he is arguably among the greatest talents of his generation.”
He is one of the greatest talents of his generation. It’s not debatable.
I just saw Joker last night and, let me tell you, if he doesn’t win that Oscar I’m suing the Academy for malpractice!

Along with his brother river
When James Cameron was writing Titanic. He said he envisioned River playing Jack Dawson. The movie that put Leo on the map.
I can see why though
I would’ve loved to see River as Jack :/
Yup
Melody Music same 😔
Leo did a good job but I'd LOVE to see River playing the role. You couldn't even tell if he was acting or not.
Joaquin deserves the Oscar. This is for River
I'd argue River's death is why Joaquin was able to portray the slow descent into madness the he just did with Joker.
@@Ethan-dn1wc nah. his brothers death has nothing to do with the jokers character at all. just because hes had a tragic life and hes portrayed a tragic character doesnt mean the two r connected
Herexes but maybe he had trauma to relate to
I love Joaquin Phoenix. He deserves everything.
He is also an incredible animals rights activist
"Earthlings" was amazingly narrated by him
Yes,
And he's a vegan.
Check out dominion!
@@roseatwan2661 Can you even be an animals rights activist without being vegan?
@@chrisn8150 of course not.
what if hes so insane that he's sane like he was simply playing himself thats why it flowed so easily
Hector Zuniga I’m afraid yes but not another joker please
Stupid thought. Next.
Jonathan D'Orazio not the worst, he actually said in an interview about how opposed to other jokers, where actors had to find some dark place for the role, he didnt and it came naturally for him.
Because he went through trauma and hard times like the joker
@@XX-bo5pb not so stupid. People who have had experiences in their lives (good or bad) makes it easier to portray
Reese Witherspoon winning the Oscar and not Joaquin is criminal; that man was Cash.
Patsy for real ...I can’t get over it
Haha to be fair though, he was against Daniel day Lewis in Lincoln....but Reese? Bah
To be fair Reese was incredibly and a scene stealer in walk the line.
@@the_glitter_is No, he was against Philip Seymour Hoffman in Capote, which is widely hailed as one of the greatest performances of all time. Heath Ledger was also nominated that year for Brokeback Mountain. Very talented nominees that year.
A few too many shoulder twitches. Plus the plot was a rip-off of Ray.
"I'm a minor, stupid talent compared to my brother."

I don’t care if this was his or is his lifestyle. He deserves an Oscar.

Rising from the ashes. How fitting.

He is an amazing actor, amazing human being, and I applaud him for surviving the negative energy he was given in life... He will always remain on top of my list as one of my most favorite actors.
He definitely got abused. Poor guy. He’s a great actor. Love him💕
J. R you right. Young people in Hollywood can’t avoid it.
J. R that’s very very sad
I think that’s not for you to say. He could have gotten out in time, could have avoided the abuse within the cult.
Honestly it’s none of our business and if it is the case, he clearly doesn’t want to share that personal part of his life. I’m sure it must be extremely frustrating for abuse victims to hear things like “poor guy”. Imagine if you accomplished as much as him but people summed you up to “yep she’s abused, poor thing”, especially if the only facts are speculation from a CZcams video?
2018 Oscar : Winners were Rami Malek and Bohemian Rhapsody
2019 Oscar : Winners will be Joaquin Phoenix and Joker
The phone call he made to 911 when his brother went into cardiac arrest is so heart breaking
Damn I forgot about his brother overdosing.
He is AN AWESOME ACTOR.
How could anyone forget that?
To be honest, watching this I also forgot his brother River. I didn't really know much about River until I saw him in Indiana Jones 3 , and thought he was great, but that's all and about his unfortunate death, I never saw Stand By Me or any other film or TV he may have been in and knew nothing about Joaquin until I saw him in The Gladiator and Signs film.
sally kilby well then please let me be the one to HIGHLY recommend stand by me (literally known as the best coming of age film) running in empty (which river was nominated for an Oscar) and the thing called love with Sandra bullock Samantha Mathis and Durmot Mulroney. Plus river was booked for interview for a vampire (with Tom cruise AND Brad Pitt) he was also booked the for the basketball diaries which went to Leo after rivers death. Plus the director of the titanic said river was they’re first pic for the film until he dies of course.
ícҽís թհօҽղíx the sad thing is that the media has done they’re best to make people forget about river. No one ever mentions him anymore, only proper fans do, no one mainstream.
@@Josh-kt6jh Well if it's that good I can't refuse, thanks for the info. ✌☺ shame he died and that he was so young, I will honor him by watching his films. 😅
Brother bear, signs, gladiator, you were never really here, the master, walk the line, joker

@@Kiiieeechiii tbh Joaquin and Mel were great togeyhet

An absolutely fantastic actor. As good as he was in “Joker,” his performance in “The Master,” was one for the ages. Just incredible. His life has not been easy and full of tragedy. I love his protection of animals - his acceptance speech for ‘Joker” was absolutely superb. Glad he has a lovely lady who loves him in his life. Truly an inspiration!
I remember one of my english teachers said she had a class with river phoenix
dakota b oh lord i don’t know if that’s true or not but
It seems the people that lead a tortured personal life become awesome actors
Exactly!!!!!
they use acting to escape trauma
Most awesome actors, yeah
If that is true I'll be a star one day.
@@spiegeltn same... Sadly I have a shit life and no ability to act. Worst of both worlds I guess. At least I'm doing fine at college which is nice.
His role in Gladiator is hugely underrated.
I know Joaquin from since he played the bad guy from Gladiator (awesome performance). I did not knew River Phoenix was his brother. River was a rising star and also the best friend of Keanu Reeves. Keanu was devastated when River died.
He named his son after River. I'm literally so emotional.
The joker movie trailer is one of The best trailers ever, even if the movies bad the trailer is great.
The recent Godzilla preview was wonderful.
Once the movie is released, no one cares how awesome the trailer was.
It's ironic that a guy like Phoenix, who's a social activist, vegan, defender of animal rights, pacifist and humanitarian, is playing a character like The Joker.
He really can do everything
He has truly lived a hard life, and I’m just so happy he has finally found peace and love in his life.
Although I think this video gives some good inside, I don’t think it tells enough about the impact Rivers death had on him. River was the rock of the family, and the leader and role model for his younger siblings. Joaquin can only now talk about him (shortly). And their sister, Rain, has only now gotten so far in the healing process that she has accepted it, and now been able to make an album in Rivers honor. It is truly a heartbreaking story.
On another note, I wish the people would take down the leaked audio of Joaquin’s 911 call!! It is beyond disrespectful that it’s still out there!!
Yes. 😢
my mother named me after Phoenixs older brother, river phoenix who as we know died. i’ve always felt that this made me like him even more
Your mom named you after a kid who died of a heroin overdose? Doubtful
His smile is the most beautiful thing I’ve seen like omg .... 🥺❤️
I love the lip scar. Seriously.
Hairlip
Called a cleft lip. Most famous actor to have one. I’ve got one
@@leoj2439 not a cleft lip, it's a birth mark, he even said this himself
Scott Craig nah that looks like a cleft lip to me.
Scott Craig it is. He has the least serious where it’s like a birth mark but there’s a scar. It’s a cleft lip
Just finished watching Joker. Joaquin is by far the most amazing acting talent of this century! The performance in Joker wasn't an easy task. I wasn't famous, but was a child actor and it alters your life forever. To transition from youth to adult talent is remarkable. Hoping to see Mr. Phoenix taking home an Oscar. It will be nothing by well deserved.
Just saw Joker, what a phenomenal film and actor.
The Joker is the perfect actor to play Joaquin Phoenix.
Dino Zerilli 🤔
Awesome actor. Im speechless.
Signs is an extremely underrated movie
Hes a good actor but with all due respect signs sucked
MOVE CHILDREN!!!! VAMONOS!!!!
I consider Signs to be one of the best horror movies ever.. It is one of those movies which is extremely liked by some while hated by others.
Rambo Rambo I love Signs, the dinner scene is some fine acting and the directing is superb too
I applaud you for not playing the 911 call after mentioning it. It's been exploited enough.
He’s misunderstood because most geniuses are. Brilliant brilliant actor!
Loved him since he was in Parenthood.I have always followed his career.
Me too!! I've always loved him
Same. He was my favourite character
First time seeing him was in Space Camp
I have Never ever seen a HAPPY SCORPIO in my life.
I never knew that was him 😲
We must protect Joaquin at all cost.
I'm so glad that this wonderful man's talent is finally acknowledged by everyone! I have been following him ever since i saw him in Quills and literally fell in love with his eye expession and dedication to his acting. A superb and exceptional actor. Love him!

With a childhood like that it's a miracle he's still alive
River knew that Joaquin was gonna be a major star
With him being a method actor who put himself in harms way now playing Joker, who was a piece of the puzzle in Heaths death, is at the very least concerning. I'm excited for the movie but I hope he's keeping his mental health in mind.
He is a freaking amazing actor. Bet he will be the best JOKER ever. After all the man has been acting his whole complicated life.
Wash your mouth out.
Nobody can do Joker better than heath but he will definitely give him a healthy competition

@@casspurrwaspurr4716 Aight lets see how good he does will come here to give update about the movie once it is out , Will be more than happy if I am left in awe haven't seen a hearty performance in a while.
I dont really understand why people see acting as a competition. Different movies, different scripts, different directors, different artistic direction. While the character maybe the same everything else is different. Each performance can stand on its own without the need to diminish the others.
The death of River destroyed him.
river phoenix must be proud :’))
Don’t forget gladiator, his acting was right up there with Russell Crowe.
I've watched Gladiator so many times just for his performance...!
Better than Russell Crowe I think
