Lady Gaga is 'disappointed' at the immense flood of negative reactions to Joker: Folie <br>
<br>
à Deux, with the singer's team now keen to quickly <br>
<br>
push out other projects to help distract from the furor over <br>
<br>
the film, insiders claim.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Todd Phillips‘ sequel was officially released in theaters on October 4, but despite expectations, it bombed, <br>
<br>
raking in just under $40 million at the domestic box office, and receiving the lowest <br>
<br>
CinemaScore in comic book movie history.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Gaga, 38, is reportedly confused at the lack of love for her turn as Harleen Lee Quinzel, aka Harley Quinn, <br>
<br>
alongside Joaquin Phoenix, 49, as the Joker - a role that won him the <br>
<br>
best actor Oscar in 2019 - in the wake of the standing <br>
<br>
ovation it received at the Venice Film Festival <br>
<br>
last month.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
'Gaga is surprised by the response to Joker 2 and is shocked that people don't love it after the response it received from critics before it premiered,' a source exclusively told DailyMail.com. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>'She put so much heart into the movie and has so much respect for the <br>

DC comics fan base.'</b><br>

They added: 'Her team is quietly looking at other projects <br>
<br>
they can roll out as they want to move on this from as quickly as possible.'<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
But despite the lackluster reception from fans, a second source claimed she is not letting <br>
<br>
it deter her from returning to the big screen, with the singer said to be <br>
<br>
eyeing up a Quentin Tarantino movie.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<u>'She is disappointed that Joker is pretty much a bomb,<br>
<br>
' they said. </u><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
'She thought that this film could get her an Oscar nomination, especially since the first film was such a <br>
<br>
success and Joaquin won an Oscar.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
'She would now like to land a role in Quentin Tarantino's next and final film.<br>
<br>
Nobody knows what that is going to be, but she wants to audition. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
'She's going to lobby hard to get a meeting with him once a script <br>
<br>
is presented, it is a bucket list moment for her to be involved.'<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Tarantino was set to create The Movie Critic which would have been his tenth and final film, <br>
<br>
but on April 17, sources told The Hollywood Reporter that <br>
<br>
the project was canceled.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The famed director is now believed to be working up a new <br>
<br>
project to mark his final cinematic release.<br>

Joker: Folie à Deux has flopped at the box office, with the psychological musical thriller also landing the lowest CinemaScore <br>
<br>
for a comic book movie<br>
<br>
<br>

<br>
Gaga, real name is Stefani Germanotta, is hoping the Joker 2 flop will <br>
<br>
just be a small blip in her career, after the film <br>
<br>
received a D rating on CinemaScore — the lowest score for a <br>
<br>
comic book movie. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Madame Web — which notably also flopped in theaters earlier <br>
<br>
this year and also received terrible reviews — holds the higher score of C+.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Joker notably opened with $96.2 million on its theater release in 2019 and <br>
<br>
eventually took a little over $1 billion in the global box office. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The first movie - which was also directed by Phillips - had a budget of <br>
<br>
between $55 and $70 million. However, the budget more <br>
<br>
than doubled to around $200 million for Folie À Deux. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The sequel screened during the Venice International Film Festival last <br>
<br>
month, where it earned a 12-minute standing ovation, per Deadline. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
It had been projected to bring in around $70 million - but the number drastically dropped amid <br>
<br>
mixed reviews before release. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Audiences have since shared their opinions on the sequel, which features multiple musical sequences. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<u><strong>'Joaquin Phoenix don't deserve this,' wrote one <br>
<br>
on X. 'What happened to the script?'</strong></u><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>Another user added: 'Stop making sequels as musicals if the original <br>
<br>
wasn't a musical.' </b><br>

An insider told DailyMail.com: 'Gaga is surprised by the response to Joker 2 and is shocked that people don't love it after the response it received <br>

<br>

<br>
<br>
<br>
'Joker downfall really needs to be studied,' shared a <br>
<br>
third, along with a monkey staring out a window. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
One fan branded it 'bad,' adding:' It was pretentious and dull.<br>
<br>
Has the aesthetic of an arthouse film without the substance.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
'It also insults the audience's intelligence.<br>
<br>
the songs were also underwhelming too. They shouldn't have let this escape to theaters.' <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Another said: 'The audience that loved the first movie is not the same audience running to see musicals.<br>
<br>
This was a gigantic mistake from step 1.' <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Many social media users have also slammed the movie's final scene, which saw Phoenix's Arthur Fleck brutally stabbed to <br>
<br>
death by a fellow inmate who could in fact by the real Joker.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<u>But others did jump in in defense of the film, with one hailing it 'amazing.'</u><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
'100% as divisive as people are making it out to be,' they continued.<br>
<br>
'I love that the film didn't try to be a traditional sequel, and fully committed to the storytelling they presented.<br>
<br>
It never deviated to be a film full of Easter eggs or any other crowd pleasing aspects.'<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Another user said: 'I kinda loved Joker 2. I loved how it was structured as a meta-exploration of the <br>
<br>
first film's fandom and the musical elements were a lot of fun.'<br>

One user claimed the film is 'getting universal hate despite being more interesting and creative than anything marvel <br>
<br>
has done in years is expected.'<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
'Joker 2 is genuinely such a clever movie which carries the character study format of the first movie into the second in a way which, surprisingly,<br>
<br>
will floor you by the end,' declared another. 'I'm astounded <br>
<br>
reception is this bad because this is SUCH a clever movie.'<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
A video of Gaga and Phoenix's awkward reaction to being asked if <br>
<br>
Folie à Deux was 'everything they expected' went viral <br>
<br>
amid the backlash.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
For a few seconds, the two stars sat in silence as they <br>
<br>
both waited for the other to answer the question.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
'Tell them how you feel, Joaquin,' Gaga said to her costar as she held out a fake microphone in front of him.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
'It's so hard to talk about but I think we feel like <br>
<br>
we achieved what we set out to do,' he replied.<br>
