Following my edit of Joker (2019) aka Happy https://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Happy-by-Movies-Remastered-A-Joker-Fanedit/id/123335

Unlike the first installment, this sequel left me thoroughly disappointed. The story felt weaker in comparison, and the musical numbers seemed awkwardly forced, as if added solely to meet contractual requirements.

In my edit, I’ll be cutting out these unnecessary elements and focusing on enhancing the storyline, bringing more depth to both the plot and the characters. My goal is to give this film a stronger, more immersive experience that fans of the original can truly enjoy.

I only have Discord for work and wonder if you can send me a link. I reviewed this film opening weekend on The Bat Fan Addict Podcast and have been waiting for someone to make an edit like this!
