NGL, Hideo Kojima is the last person I'd listen to regarding opinions on what constitutes good cinema.

I'm sure this movie is capable of being good without validating incel ideology. Come on let's enjoy a comic book movie with Kojima. I hope it's good can't wait to catch a showing.

Do we need another thread where people only hate on Kojima? The man has an opinion

My problem with the potential of this actually being a GREAT FILM tm is that it looks like it cribs from Taxi Driver and King of Comedy to a fault, like it'll be distracting me the whole time rather than feeling like an original thought or a truly good work of art that just stands on its own.

I mean...I'm looking forward to seeing it but change the history of cinema?

Kojima's modern takes on film just aren't for me. He had better taste in the 80s and 90s.

He tweeted more about it and to my understanding (I read the English tweets only) he loved the first half of the movie, probably the part he is praising in the quote, but he also said the second half isn not gonna be loved by most - for me it meant that he didn't like it.

Oh shit, Hideo Kojima is rising up!

Kojima is true gamer, confirmed.

It's just his opinion on a movie ya'll. Half of us called some seriously whack movies the GOAT and then followed it up the next month with another in-your-opinion GOAT.

That seems a little dramatic, but I have heard good things about the film. MGS4 is also one of my favorite movies so I trust Kojima on this.
I'm gonna see it tomorrow and see what I think; a friend gave me free tickets and I find the concept of this movie interesting but as something that'd be difficult to pull off well. I'm not the biggest movie buff but the idea of a movie about a villain seems so hard; how do you give something like that an ending that's satisfying?

I can't say I'm surprised that Kojima likes this movie - if I were to guess, he seems like the kindof guy who is a big fan of Escape from New York, They Live!, The Thing, The Manchurian Candidate, Taki Driver etc. - Adding Joker to that list isn't a huge leap.

While I think he's up his own ass at times, dude has good taste in movies at least. I trust that this movie will actually be good.

Are you serious? Your cool with the toxic slander and constant trashing of a person? The former threads on Kojima had broken down into some insane accusations. This isn't a good look.
What toxic slander? We are not allowed to criticise other peoples points of views just because they are famous individuals? That cult of personality is just as bad as what you are trying to imply here.

This seems like it belongs in a Joker review thread and not as its own thread.
