Hello, Sweetie

525,566 Comments

Our poor Doctor. He’s so harangued by River Song. LOL. Even the brief, surprise greeting of, “Hello, Sweetie,” elicits such a hangdog response that you just want to put your arm around The Doctor and tell him that everything will be okay. Being out of the loop, I had no idea there was a current running through fandom with theories about River. I’m pretty bad to take a plot point at face value and just let the story play out, but now I’m dying to get into the conspiracy theorists’ minds.

That’s the big difference with the new series; it’s smarter. Certainly not to disparage RTD’s helm, which was still largely better than anything else on television, but the nuances now are just a bit more mature and cerebral. Perhaps the least cerebral clue, as I mentioned before, is “The Crack” and though I did not spot the crack in the episode, it’s FINALLY being seen by The Doctor in the preview for next week’s episode. Next week’s episode, by the way, looks to be full of excitement, and motion, and intrigue.

In what I consider to be the mark of greatness for a show, a Twitter friend of mine is just getting into Doctor Who, and I’m proud to have him jump on board with Eleven and Amy. Welcome to the greatest show on Earth. Or Gallifrey. Or Raxacoricofallapatorius. Or, well, you get the picture. With The Doctor and the TARDIS, anything is possible!

  40. Joaquin Phoenix has revealed that he spoke with filmmaker Christopher Nolan about playing Joker which
    ultimately went to Heath Ledger.

    The 50-year-old actor – whose latest flick Joker:
    Folie À Deux could be streamed now – got candid about potentially playing the supervillain before he actually portrayed
    him.

    Joaquin recently appeared on Rick Rubin’s Tetragrammaton podcast as he revealed that he spoke to the 54-year-old Oscar-winning
    filmmaker Nolan about portraying Joker over a decade before.

    He said: That didn’t… wasn’t going to happen for a number of reasons.

    I wasn’t ready then.

    ‘That’s one of those things sometimes where you go: “Why am I not doing this project? What is stopping me from doing this? Well it’s not about me, there’s something else. There’s another person that’s going to do something that’s like, I can’t imagine what it would be if we didn’t have Heath Ledger‘s performance in that film.”‘

    Joker: Folie À Deux heading to streaming after box office flop

    In 2020, Joaquin earned the Best Lead Actor Oscar for Todd
    Phillips directed Joker which was 11 years after Ledger posthumously earned Best Supporting Actor for The Dark
    Knight in 2009.

    Joaquin continued: ‘I don’t know whether Christopher Nolan was
    coming to me saying, “You are definitely the person.” 

    ‘I can’t remember the context of how we met. But I know that we met, and my feeling was, “I shouldn’t do this.”
    But maybe he also was like, “You’re not the guy.” I couldn’t say.’

    Heath died in a New York City apartment on January 22, 2008, after accidentally overdosing following months
    of physical and mental exhaustion.

    The Dark Knight actor died aged 28 after taking a
    fatal cocktail of drugs, leaving behind his daughter,
    who was two years old at the time.

    Meanwhile Joker: Folie À Deux can now be streamed, just weeks after its theatrical release. 

    The movie, starring Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga, is now available to rent
    from home starting October 29, in an effort to recoup some of Warner
    Bros. investment into the film, as per Variety.

    The musical, which bombed at the box office, is ‘poised to
    lose at least $150 million to $200 million in its theatrical
    run’ according to the publication.

    Terrifier 3 dethrones Joker: Folie À Deux as box office champ

    The movie studio spent about $200 million to produce the film and about $100 million on marketing and distribution,
    according to the report.

    It would need to gross about $450 million at the box office to break even — when factoring in the cut taken by theaters — though Warner Bros.
    sources claim the number is $375 million.

    A Warner Bros. spokesperson responded to the report,
    saying ‘Any estimates suggested by anonymous “insiders”
    or “rival executives” are grossly wrong and continues a
    trend where rumor is reported as fact.’

    ‘The film continues to play in theatrical release, included with this
    week’s opening in China, and will continue to earn revenue throughout its home viewing and ancillary run.’

    So far, the musical about Batman’s nemesis has grossed
    $51.5 million domestically and $165 million globally
    after two weeks of release.

    In comparison, the first Joker grossed $96.2 million domestically and
    $248.4 million globally after three days of release.

    The hotly-anticipated sequel to the 2019 billion dollar Oscar-winning film was considered a surefire hit for Warner Bros Pictures, yet ended up being slammed by critics and failed to ignite at the box office. 

    Joker: Folie À Deux has garnered the lowest CinemaScore in comic book movie
    history as the film bombed at the box office
    on opening night. 

    The psychological musical thriller — which has been criticized as
    ‘bleak’ and ‘disappointing’ — officially released in theaters on Friday, October 4.

    Gaga took on the role of Harleen Lee Quinzel (Harley Quinn)

    Phoenix reprised his role as the Joker in the sequel, which had earned him an Oscar for his portrayal in the
    2019 film, while Gaga took on the role of Harleen Lee Quinzel
    (Harley Quinn).

    However, Joker: Folie À Deux has been given a D rating on CinemaScore —
    the lowest score for a comic book movie.

    Madame Web — which notably also flopped in theaters earlier this year and
    also received terrible reviews — holds a higher score with a C+.

    On Rotten Tomatoes, the movie currently holds an audience score of
    31% and a critic score of 32%.

    The sequel has been roundly criticized for being a musical and ‘ignoring’ the DC fanbase – with an agent familiar with director Todd Phillips’
    process telling Variety he ‘wanted nothing to do with DC’ during
    the making of the film, with DC bosses James Gunn and Peter Safran notably absent from the film’s LA premiere afterparty last
    month. 

    A source said: ‘If the first movie was about
    some down-on-his-luck, mentally ill guy in a downtrodden city,
    it makes maybe $150 [million] worldwide. Not a billion. People showed up because that guy was Joker.’

    In an apparent snub by Phillips, the opening sequence of the film does not include a DC Studios
    logo.

    A Warner spokesman added that a DC logo appears at the end of the Joker sequel,
    while Phillips declined to comment to the publication.

    Several frictions are said to have developed between Phillips, DC and Warner- with claims that Michael DeLuca,
    Chairperson of Warner Bros. Entertainment, and CEO Pamela Abdy seemed ‘unwilling’ to
    say no to Phillips due to his huge past successes.

    It is claimed Phillips would ‘only’ speak with DeLuca and Abdy rather than Gunn and Safran – who took control
    of DC two months before production began on Joker 2 in December 2022.

    Gunn and Safran did attend the first director’s cut screening for the
    studio but Phillips fueled rift speculation when he told a reporter: ‘With all due respect
    to them, this is kind of a Warner Bros. movie.’

    Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav also met with Phillips shortly after WarnerMedia and Discovery merged in April 2022 and was ‘open to
    filming in Los Angeles if the director would make the sequel at a lower price
    point.’

    The studio wanted to film in London which would have cost around
    20 per cent less.

    A source directly involved with the film recently shared: ‘The
    one thing about genre stuff: If you don’t listen and pay attention to what the
    fan expectations are, you’re going to fail’; director Todd Phillips
    seen with Gaga and Phoenix at the LA premiere September 30

    However, Phillips insisted on filming in LA with the budget remaining static.

    A Warner spokesman told the publication the studio
    ‘supported the decision to film in Los Angeles’.

    A source directly involved with the film said: ‘No one could get
    through to Todd. And the one thing about genre stuff:
    If you don’t listen and pay attention to what the fan expectations are,
    you’re going to fail.

    Insiders also claim studio bosses did not want to premiere the film at the
    Venice Film Festival, but Phillips pushed back
    – with a Warner spokesman saying the studio ‘fully supported the decision to bring the film to Venice. 

    Along with Gaga and Phoenix, other stars that had appeared in the sequel include Brendan Gleeson, Catherine Keener,
    Zazie Beatz and Steve Coogan.
