JOKER - Teaser Trailer - Reaction 

Wow!!! thank you, everyone, for your compliments and thoughtful comments! As you can tell we are super pumped about this! And now we know that the little boy is Bruce Wayne! Which blew our minds! 🤯 Can't wait for it to come out! But we wanted to thank all of our new subscribers for joining the JAMFAM!!! You guys rock! Be sure to check out our other vids if you're all about family-friendly entertainment!!! Thank you!

I've lost count of how many times I've watched this trailer now.

I keep seeing reaction videos just as an excuse to see the trailer again...

Smells like Oscar Nominations

Before the trailer: why they chose Joaquin phoenix. After the trailer: why they didn't chose Joaquin phoenix before.

Let's put a smile on that Oscar ~ Joaquin phoenix

Arthur starts the trailer slumped over as he walks up the long staircase with low self esteem and a lack of direction in life. The Joker ends the trailer dancing merrily down the staircase and walking through the hallway with a flamboyant stride of confidence. Such a great contrast in terms of how he carries himself at the beginning and how he tragically turns out as at the end of his journey into madness.

Fun fact: Joaquin Phoenix actually lost all that weight for the role. That's really him. Googled it, lol.

Good reaction. That is not a kid. That’s Bruce.

DC: new joker trailer Me: SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!!

Batman: The Hero Gotham Needed Joker: The Villain Gotham Created

Deep down. We all have that joker in us.

Its funny because Leonardo DiCaprio was actually considered for the role of Joker in this and had a sit down and then turned it down... Im very very glad he did...

I've watched 30+ reaction videos of this teaser trailer. Someone stop me please.

I don't care if Batman is not in this movie. Just give me Joker.

I cried during this trailer.

The kid he forced a smile on..is a recently orphaned Bruce Wayne

It looks amazing and it feels like this can be Oscar worthy film and that kid was little Bruce and the music they picked for this trailer was great

I think that kid is Bruce Wayne. That was Thomas Wayne on the TV calling him a coward. And I think the talk show scene with DeNiro is from The Dark Knight Returns where Joker kills the entire studio audience.

I think it's the best trailer yet and potentially, it might be an oscar nominee overall. There are two symbolism scenes that I found it most fascinating: from the beginning, Arthur was walking up the stairs, struggling to be a better individual and trying to fit into the society, even though he wasn't naturally succeeding and the very last scene was Arthur walked down the stairs as he fell into insanity and accepted the harsh reality as everything was a joke to him than being positive and became what defined him as the Joker. This is probably something Batman can't understand what is like to be in the street that Arthur lived and dealt with on a daily basis, since he's luckily the industrialist multi-millionaire. The Batman's philosophy was obviously black and white as he go along, while the Joker's philosophy, however, was terrifyingly grey and more accurate as it's relevant today. Just remember in the comic book, the Joker's backstory was never revealed, that included the Killing Joke storyline as he was an unreliable narrator about his past because the Joker preferred to have "multiple choice." Whether the Joker fell into the vat of chemical or not, this movie is acceptable.

This is going to be an amazing film. Dare I say, movie of the year.

it´s not just that this trailer is pure superhero-gone-vertigo sensation, it is a big bow and hommage to cinema itself. smile, filmscore of charlie chaplin´s modern times, robert de niro on stage as a king of comedy reference, killing joke ... and so much more ...

I am also thinking the same Why October 😥😥😥

I will say, the symbolism of him struggling to walk up the stairs (to fit in) and then him dancing down the stairs (accepting that he’s different and enjoying it) is amazing!!! I’m so looking forward to it!!!!!

Priceless reaction. Thank you for not talking over it like many reactors. Chills.

The song " smile " was written by Charlie Chaplain (great comedian) and this version is sung by Jimmy Durante (also a comedian). Perfect choice for the trailer

The JOKER was RIGHT all along

really great! thank you! I think the child that he makes smile is Bruce Wayne. I'm so glad you understood the caring for his mother. so many people found it weird and I think that just voices the weirdness of our own society. Your passion for the character is evident and really great!

Imagine if they release no more tailers and leave it at this the hype would be so real at October lol

That little boy in the trailer was Bruce Wayne

The moment i heard Joaquin Phoenix was taking on this role i knew it was going to be epic... but nothing prepared me for how good this trailer was.

Chills man! Great reaction. This is goin for an Oscar for sure

My favorite parallel in this trailer: In the beginning we see Arthur climbing up the stairs, stoicly, sullen, almost lost. In the end, we see Joker walking down the steps, full swagger and carelessness just descending down into madness. Amazing visuals.

One of the best reactions i see it so far. congratz guys

that first laugh where he is out of his clown makeup, is one of the reasons why i love joaquin phoenix. Like if you look how his eyes are darting back and forth like his is uncomfortable his skin but he is trying to force out a laugh (in a good way.) I liked how you pointed out this can stand out on it's own. If they named the film Arthur and there was no "DC attached, this would be really dark.

YOUR REACTION IS PRICELESS !!! HAHAHAHA I LIKE THAT

Great reaction! I just subscribed. I'm definitely getting oscar vibes just from this trailer. Joaquin Phoenix is going to nail it!

I am so hyped for this movie. I think it’s going to be groundbreaking, we have had comic book movies before but most of them have been light hearted and fun, this seems so dark yet fitting for the Joker.

That was a great reaction. I liked your expressions. :) Joaquin Phoenix is truly a actor with skill. Joker's laugh was creepy and amazing. Trailer is so good. Chills and goosebumps while and after watching it. :)

You know those stairs that Arthur depressingly strolls up and as the Joker dances down...Those exact stairs are also used in in the film "The Exorcist"

I like the possibility of this being a movie about someone who we can sympathize with concerning his plight, but still be intimidated by his instability, and ultimately take a strange pleasure in seeing him gain a sense of confidence and especially see his revenge against the world which gave him grief. At least I hope that is the approach. I saw hints of Hitchcock’s Psycho and some gritty 70’s flicks like Death Wish. Hopefully we get a full on Joker vs the world flick that really gives meaning to his story.

The thing about his drastic weight loss -- and some other people said it -- is there's some real "the Machinist" stuff going on there, which if you'll recall starred a 50 pound Christian Bale. DeNiro is in this, he was in a movie called "The King of Comedy" which involved his character -- a comedian -- having his own breakdown going all Kathy Bates on a TV show host that wouldn't put him on the air (played by Jerry Lewis). The overall cinematography and feel is much akin to Taxi Driver, which starred DeNiro and was made by Martin Scorsese -- the latter of whom produced this movie. ... and the story arc we're getting and overall breakdown of the character is reminiscent of Micheal Douglass in "Falling Down". It looks the best of "descent into madness" rolled into one. If it's 1/10th as good as the trailer, it should sweep the academy awards.

one thing you guys should check out - when he's writing on that notepad, he wrote: "the worst thing about having a mental illness is that people expect you to act like you dont'

I usually never comment on a reaction video. I have to say, I love your zoom timing on peak reaction moments. It's really smart because when I'm usually watching a reaction video I'm changing focus between the actual trailer and the viewers. I usually only look at the viewers when I think there should be a reaction. People's reactions can't always be predicted though and the zoom is like auto-pilot. Thanks for making the video! P.S Just don't make the mistake of too much zoom. 2:24 is cutting it real close but mostly because its getting blurry

When that person actually becomes our society and actually takes it out on society!

Joker is one of my favorite DC Villains and I have to say this looks Amazing. I can't wait till October, It can't get her soon enough.

Damn why didn't I find this channel sooner? their reactions are genuinely more Entertaining than others this is really dope

I think the child has to be a young Batman as i couldn't imagine an adult version wearing flares and platform boots

I had a similar reaction to the tone of the trailer, it feels less like a comic book film and more like a psychological thriller. It almost gives me vibes like Silence of the Lambs, or Henry Portrait of a Serial Killer.

OMG you two are the cutest!!! best thing about Joker is, it gives us a back story and then takes it away again.

I’m loving the direction they’re going with in this movie! Like how Bruce dedicated his life to fighting crime to avenge his murdered parents joker will dedicate his life to laughing at Gotham’s misery for them laughing at his misery!

I looove you two I just can’t stop laughing 😂 This is the craziest story ever, few years ago I watched the Gladiator (again) and I always loved Joaquin. While watching a movie I thought to myself this guy would be a great Joker. Now Joker movie is coming to theaters starring Joaquin Phoenix. I am sooo pumped just like you two, just can’t wait 🤯😩😎

Surprised of the few subscribers you have. Good quality camerawork and also top notch content👏🏻👏🏻

"his back... his BACK honey" LMAO 😭😭😭😭

"I used to think my life was a tragedy, but now I realize . . . it's a comedy..." Puts chills down my spin. Joaquin Phoenix will go down as one of the best Jokers of all time, fight me.

I subscribed, good grief !! Great reaction guys thanks.

'm so excited for this trailer! If you know comic lore this is finally what is known as the "Golden Age" Joker. Something never covered on film...Heath Ledger was an amazing joker but he was a "Modern Age" Joker...This is the Joker artists had in mind when creating the joker...no fancy gadgets no Harley Quinn just a intelligent sick psychopath serial killer. Before the Comic Committee censored joker This is the original joker.

This will deserve an oscar to Joaquin Phoenix

This is the best reaction to this trailer and I've watched dozens of videos people reacting to the trailer.

I loved y'alls reaction to this! Great vid! I'm so hype for this movie!

It's what appens when the shadow destroys the person it's of, he has to deal with a mental condition for himself, his mother who probably is too weak to even take care of herself anymore, and was too heartbroken to care of the joker as a child(Where's his father? Abusive much?), and then you have the fact of being told your purpose is to love others, but you feel empty, lost when nobody loves you, it cuts deep into what it means to be human, to be hurt, and just be done with it all that you want all of it to be done, make those who you deem ignorant to suffering suffer, because you suffered enough. Also great editing keep up the good work.

just subscribed to your channel. Absolutely loved your reaction to this trailer! You guys got yourselves another huge fan now!

Nice reaction! Super pumped about this movie! The Joker is my favorite comic book villain of all time!!!!!

Loved your reactions, subscribed!

I don't need to watch the movie ,this is.. This is brilliant This is beautiful

I've been obsessing about this trailer and watching countless reactions. You are the first one I've seen that noticed the walk at the start. The similar stiff, slumped shoulders, slightly leaning to one side walk that Ledger did. Good catch.

This trailer has me unbelievably hyped. Loved your video will be following. I just appreciate honest hype on a beloved character.

As a Fan of the Joker I really REALLY Love how they made this trailer and cannot wait for the Movie to come out..! I Also Love How they picked Joaquin Phoenix to play this Role..! Personally I Think that he was made to play this Role..! Heath gave us a phenomenal performance, one that was very hard to out top.! Also I think that if Jared Leto would of had more screen time, he would of also gave us an awesome Joker. What I think Jered Leto was trying to bring was The Very first Joker played by Cesar Romero who was like a Gangster Joker and a Comedian Villain at the same time, but because he didn’t have enough screen time, that really couldn’t allow him to bring that kind of Joker, also I think Jared would of brought us a great performance if he did have the screen time. Also Jack Nickelson brought us another great Joker with the catch phrase, “You ever dance with the Devil in a Pale moon light”, that one will also never be forgotten to this very day. But on another review, one that is missed by many, which I think is an Easter egg, is when Joaquin makes the kid smile, the kid is actually Bruce Wayne when he was a kid. In one of the Batman movies you see the same young Bruce dressed the same with the same haircut, but I will leave that for all to go and watch the Batman movies to find him in. Anyway Love the Reviews on Joaquin’s Joker, cause Joaquin is a Great Actor, And he really brought The Joker in this movie, and for great actors to always have a persona that’s always changing and keeping people guessing all the time, is what makes a Great Actor. And that is why Personally I think he is a Great Actor with all the movies he’s made throughout his entire career, and with this performance I really believe he has another OSCAR on the way..! Cannot wait for the Joker movie to come out.! (((Peace))) 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🤘🏼😎🤘🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼💯✌🏼

*I ADORE YOU GUYS!!!* I have watched a ton of reactions today and I have to say you all are absolutely one of my favorites. I'm so excited for this movie that I can't even stand it. They could not have picked a better person to play this part! Jack Nicholsons Joker will always be my favorite and of course Heath Ledger's Joker is brilliant and heartbreaking, which is why he became a very close second but wow wow wow even before seeing the movie I'm pretty sure that Joaquin Phoenix is going to take a rightful spot in my top three. Another JOKER is gonna win an OSCAR! Just watching the trailer I feel so many emotions and that is what any great story does. I'm pretty sure we are all going to feel sorry for him but then he is going to turn into the monster that we all know and it's going to take us on a huge roller coaster. And I am totally ready for it! I love the "Bruce tease" and the small jump/pose on the stairs is a classic Joker mannerism. .... WOW! Amazing reaction that has earned you a new sub. Much Love😉✌💚

Awesome Trailer reaction guys!!! Stumbled upon this channel....👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

How I have not seen your channel sooner is beyond me!..subscribed to you!

I've been watching Joker reactions for hours. I sub'd to you guys because you are both so cute and really authentic. Good work. Look forward to more videos.

Smells Like Oscar Spirit - Nirvana Can't wait to watch this movie

The best reaction + comments. I know when someone is really a fan of characters.

You two have a facken good commentary about this trailer. I can tell that both of you are fans. Keep it up mates.

The reaction I was looking for😂 earned a subscriber my man👍🏼

Subscribed. You two are friggin awesome.

Love you reactions so many positive reactions so far😊 And I'm gonna watch it too in October so thrilled and excited

They sold me with the therapist asking Arthur if talking helps. Him looking away as if trapped in dark thought, then looking at her with that darkness for a second, suddenly a small smile. No, I would say talking is NOT helping.

The only reaction that I watch till the end. Good job guys! I love it!

You two are great, subscribing for sure. This film looks amazing, a modern day Taxi Driver perhaps.

In 1981, a failed stand-up comedian turns to a life of crime and chaos in Gotham City, slowly rising up to become a frightening legend. Inspired by Martin Scorsese writings and films

I love it!! DC is at its best when they produce darker, more gritty films, films that don't go OTT with the CGI and humour. We do not need a facsimile of Marvel, more like something to compliment them. What if what we are seeing here, is just another one of Joker's fabrications? That he is just made this all up and was spinning a yarn for his counselor/interrogator?

i love this reaction!!!! , new suscriber!!

Great reaction video guys!.. keep on keeping on!. Prediction.. this movie will make 200 million open weekend!

The kid was Bruce Wayne and the guys in the subway gave him his name, they say "What's so funny J..." when the trailer cuts off the speaker. Cool reaction video guys :-)

just subscribed to your channel, by seeing your love for joker

One bad day can change your life forever.

I'm a huge fan of the Joker, he's like my favorite comic supervillain, and Heath Ledger's version is my favorite as well, so I am very happy to see that he is getting his own stand-alone movie, and that they are giving utmost respect to the character and mythos behind him, by making it more of a psychological crime thriller type of movie inspired by _Taxi Driver, Raging Bull_ and _The King of Comedy._

I've been singing that teaser trailer song all day😆🗣️🎶🎶🎶... Good reaction video by the way 👍

Since there is no definitive origin story of the Joker it just leaves room for interpretation. As long as they get the character aspects of the Joker right it's just about who can portray him the best. I think we will get a good first introduction to Arkham Asylum.

Heath ledger scar theory is that one scar was made by the jokers psicotic demented father, the other scar was a self inflicted wound.

awesome reaction u guys devserve way more subs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great reaction! Love your love for the character! Joker seems to be a true character study film. I'm of an opinion that DC "should" stick to deeper, layered character study art house films that don't necessarily have to exist in each other’s world. This would truly break from any Marvel formula by this approach. Kind of like graphic novels put to screen. Different stories in different times. Creative perspectives from different writers and directors. Maybe (a big maybe) utilizing different actors playing same characters in said stories. Just a thought. To that, this gorgeously haunting trailer says a lot in the way it's edited! WOW. The trailer itself is a masterpiece! On top of the influence from Taxi Driver and King of Comedy (both Scorsese films) I almost feel there's a nod to the Exorcist as well with that angle of those steps at the beginning of this trailer. As he's waking up the steps, his posture suggests a broken man, hunched over, defeated by life and in constant battle with his demons. By the end of the trailer, he's confident and now dancing down the steps! Free and liberated because he's been overtaken by those demons to become who he's meant to be...the clown prince of crime. To top the brilliance of Heath Ledger's portrayal, it's going to take the brilliance of Phoenix to do it and an "entire" film dedicated to the character to pull it off. This is what we potentially have in this film and it looks amazing!!!

That was a good reaction, agree in everything you guys say... You guys have a great vibe! keep it up !

I loved your reaction!!!!

I absolutely adore your lovely family. Looking forward to seeing the kids join you both in future reaction videos, esp when it comes to animated originals and adaptations. Loved how they reacted to the trailer of the live action Aladdin adaptation. James stole the show😍.

This has the vibe of my favorite movie "Willard" staring Crispin Glover! If u havnt seen it id highly recommend it!

Subscribed. You guys are hilarious

Joker is going to be rated a HARD R because of the Joker's violence.
