I enjoyed Joker, because it was basically Taxi Driver with minimal capeshit lore thrown in. Not sure if I’ll bother watching II

I hated Joker because it was Taxi Driver with a smidge of “lore” attached and none of the subtlety. You’re not making Joker better, you’re just making Taxi Driver worse.

Pretty sure you would get all the substance from watching Taxi Driver and then The King of Comedy.
