Dance represents control of your body or say yourself and expression of your being, joker is basically a resentment story, after killing those guys for the first time Arthur felt the control in himself as he dances after that.
I remember watching this in theaters and man oh man those rounds fired in this scene were SO LOUD! Like far more than usual. I felt like I almost crapped my pants I jumped scared so hard.
Self-Defense is only applicable if the same amount of force being used against the offender is the same amount of force said offender used against the victim. For this scene, the asshats were kicking and punching Arthur so Arthur would’ve had to use his fists or feet back to claim self-defense. The moment he pulled and shot his gun made it not self-defense but involuntary homicide or a crime of passion. Sadly, the law doesn’t consider the moment but the objective facts 😞
The absolute most terrifying thing about this movie is that the way things are in 2023/24, you could easily see something like this happening. The tag line should've been "How much can one man take?" A true lesson in psycho analysis.
It was not just a dance, it’s a ritual whereby he embraced himself into who he is. As a person who struggled with a mental illness that is totally rejected by the society, those three men were final straws that broke the camel’s back. He did it on self-defence and justifiable because they physically assaulted him. When he isolated himself in the bathroom, he took his moment to perform the ritual and channeling his inner self. Although justifiable, he has completely transformed into a different person.
Love how these people critic actions in the safety of their non troublesome life... bet they wouldnt act according to their so called standards/principles if placed in the ssme situation
LOL Having watched a ton of reactions at this point, I always find it ironic how a of reactors tend to hate on characters for acting in a way or doing things that they've all probably done at some point in their lives. I mean, there's a reason why the phrase "Nobody's perfect" isn't just hyperbole.
When I took the course to get my concealed weapon’s permit, one of the things they teach you is that you can never shoot someone in the back, because if their back is to you, they’re not/no longer a treat to you. Shooting the first two men was self defense, but the third was running away, and therefor cold blooded murder.
No that’s nonesense. You aren’t wrong about the law part but it isn’t cold blooded murder. If you call that cold blooded murder then I’d be curious to hear what you’d have to say about Hitler getting shot in the back or something. Yes it’s the law... slavery was also legally protected under law too once... The law is broken. Period.
No it wasn’t cold blooded murder, the justice system is broken and extremely flawed. Just because something is legal doesn’t automatically make it right. The guy deserved it, he forfeited his right to live the second he attacked joker. He brought it to himself. Pathetic Neanderthal. It wasn’t murder, he deserved it.
I wonder if any of these reactors do any information on historical events because I had zero sympathy for the Joker character. This scene and the opening was both reminiscent of The Central Park Five case when they referenced wilding in the scene and the train scene was clearly about Bernard Goetz. The racist who shot four innocent teenage black males.
@@nocarebutyes3436 keyword “seem”... All I get from you is how you think murderers, thieves and rappers should get to get away with their crimes simply because they in the “last minute” decide to stop attacking you and run away.
Fun fact: the gun that Arthur uses is a Smith and Wesson Model 36, which only has a 5-round cylinder; Arthur fires 7 shots in this scene. This could be interpreted as a continuity error but I like to imagine it's another case of Arthur's 'unreliable narrator' tendencies showing their ugly head again.
"Memories can be vile. Repulsive little brutes, like children I suppose. But can we live without them? Memories are what our reason is based upon. If we can't face them, we deny reason itself! Although, why not? We aren't contractually tied down to rationality. There is no sanity clause. So when you find yourself locked down in an unpleasant train of thought, heading for the places in your past where the screaming is unbearable, remember: There's always madness. You can just step outside and close the door, and all those dreadful things that happened, you can lock them away. Madness... is an emergency exit"
this shows why most reaction channels are horrible. It's supposed to be a reaction not constant color commentary. most reactors talk way too much. popcorn in bed is my favorite reaction channel because she doesn't feel the need to constantly talk.
Notice the villains are of course white wall street guys. I'm not racist but I'm also not blind & if you watch the news it isn't white wall street men that have people afraid to ride the subways of NYC. This movie is heavily inspired by Taxi Driver & this specific sequence is clearly inspired by Bernard Goetz subway incident , which again was not white wall street men. Even a great movie like this has to play the Hollywood pc game. I wonder if the same people who are fine with the "bullies" getting killed if the "bullies" were young minority men? Specifically young black men? Most wouldn't know how to react because they aren't used to being realistically challenged with opaque racial issues cause Hollywood is garbage. For the record I acknowledge that for most of Hollywood's history they made minorities the scapegoat for everything & it was awful too. That being said going 180 the other way is two wrongs make a right logic.
I agree with your sentiment, but I thought the final straw was their social status. We've seen he was sadly accustomed to violence in his area, but... If these three well dressed, educated and comfortably well off men were the "cream of society" - that's an indictment on society, not Arthur.
You are a sub human racist vermin. It wouldn’t have mattered if the perpetrators were POC. Because criminals are criminals, and it’s also very telling how your low IQ self thinks it’s impossible for Wall Street men to be thugs. 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
It wouldn’t have mattered if they were people of color, criminals are criminals, once you pose a threat to someone s safety they have every right to take you out. And you are a sub human racist vermin, it’s telling how your low IQ self thinks it’s impossible for white wall street guys to be dangerous thugs. As a matter of fact your mayo kind commits most mass shootings, school shootings, terrorist attacks etc. look in the mirror before opening your rotten mouth, you sub human racist vermin.🤡🤡🤡🤡
some of these reactors are dumb being drunk and belligerent = being killed now?? first 2 yea ok i agree with that he was defending himself but the last one was straight up murder
