Joker Folie à Deux Actor Tim Dillon, who plays a small role as an Arkham Asylum guard in the Todd Phillips-directed sequel, called the film “the worst movie ever made” during an appearance on THE Joe Rogan podcast.

“I think what happened after the first Jokerthere was a lot of talk like, “Ooh, the incels loved this. This was appreciated by the wrong people. This sent the wrong type of message. Male rage! Nihilism!’ All this food for thought. And then I’m like, “What if we went the other way?” And now they’re tap dancing with Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga so much it’s insane.

The song-and-dance-heavy film that Warner Bros. refused to market it as a musical but which is submit Phoenix and Gaga in the musical or comedy categories at the next Golden Globes, was a commercial and critical failure when it was released last month.

The film earned just less than $38 million opening weekend domestically before dropping 81 percent in its second weekend. Its worldwide gross is nearly $205 million, but more than $145 million comes from overseas.

Joker: Folie à Deux has a 32 percent freshness rating on Rotten Tomatoes and has received a D CinemaScore from the audience.

Continuing on about the sequel, Dillon said the actors felt like they were working on a bad movie while they were making it.

“There is no plot. We were sitting there, me and these other guys were all dressed up in these security outfits because we work at Arkham Asylum, and I turned to one of them, and we were hearing this bullshit, and I I asked, “What is that?” And they were like, “It’s going to explode, man.” I was like, “This is the worst thing I’ve ever experienced…” We were talking about it at lunch, and we were like, “What’s the plot?” Is there a conspiracy? I don’t know, I think he falls in love with her in prison? …It’s not even watchable hate. That’s how terrible it is,” he told Rogan.

Last month, Quentin Tarantino praised Joker: Folie à Deux during an appearance on Le Bret Easton Ellis podcast.

“I really, really liked it, I really did. A lot. Hugely so, and I went to see it hoping to be impressed by the film’s production. But I thought it would be an independent intellectual exercise that ultimately wouldn’t work as a film, but I would enjoy it for what it is,” the director said. “And I’m just nihilistic enough to enjoy a movie that doesn’t really work as a movie. To some extent this feels like a big giant mess. And I didn’t find it to be an intellectual exercise. I really got caught up in that. I really liked the musical sequences. I really let myself get caught up. I thought the more mundane the songs were, the better they were.
