    I was interested when I heard it was going to be a musical.

    I was turned off when I found it was just licensed music and would not have any original songs. Like… What’s the point of making a musical if you’re not gonna make new songs specifically for the story?

      Ahhhh this is the first time hearing it isn’t original music. I took for granted that a musical would have original songs.

        The caveat there is Moulin Rouge was a musical to begin with and didn’t have any prior expectations.

      If they can somehow fit pre-existing music into the film, it can be fun to see essentially several high budget musical clips of known songs at once and also a film. Bollywood can be good at this. That is clearly not the case with Joker 2, but if they had made psychological mad sequences with Bonnie and Clyde having killing and crime sprees with psychedelical metal music etc, it could work.
