	6:06pm PhillippeB: Judy Greer
	6:06pm swanny j from Mpls: Bob Odenkirk
	6:07pm Tom from Stirling: ↳ DanFA @6:06 Can't argue with that.
	6:07pm DanFA: ↳ Tom from Stirling @6:07 Hell yes!
	6:08pm Audiocarp: I’ll watch Meryl Streep in anything
	6:08pm dale: i liked the first joker movie. more than the batman movies.
	6:08pm DanFA: Franco!
	6:08pm Joey C says: Steve Buscemi and Phillip Seymor Hoffman. Excuse the spelling.
	6:09pm DanFA: He was great in Exorcist 3.
	6:09pm DjLorraine: ↳ DanFA @6:06 I like when he says "Everyone!"
	6:09pm Tom from Stirling: ↳ dale @6:08 It was good, actually.
	6:09pm Lazy Rider: Sharlto Copley. Totally underrated.
	6:09pm dale: he was in one of the alien movies, plays a real creep.
	6:09pm Deano de los Muertos: maybe Sam Rockwell
	6:10pm DanFA: ↳ DjLorraine @6:09 I loooove Mozart!!
	👍 6:10pm zachary: ↳ Audiocarp @6:04 No worries. It happens every week. Please document your specific criticism.
	6:10pm Tom from Stirling: ↳ dale @6:09 Brad Dourif was good in Alien Resurrection. A mad scientist type.
	6:11pm DanFA: That's a great X-Files episode. He played a murdered on death row who can speak to the dead.
	6:11pm Joey C says: Bill Macy. Of course
	6:11pm Audiocarp: ↳ zachary @6:10 It’s those mush mouth stoned vocals
	6:12pm dale: the x files with the peacocks was great. and the leach type man that developed in the wastewater tank of a russian freighter....
	6:12pm i̺k̺e̺: Wasn't Brad Dourif typecast as a serial killer for a while? Yeah, he was good in The X-Files, but also showed up in Babylon 5 (in an episode that was somewhat histrionic, but well-thought-out) and Star Trek: Voyager (meh).
	6:12pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Tom from Stirling @6:10 coaxing it to eat him 😆
	6:13pm Tom from Stirling: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @6:12 "A beautiful butterfly" haha
	6:14pm Audiocarp: Wait, Jim the poet, you didn’t say favorite character actor…
	6:15pm C: Robert Forester ROC strong ;)
	6:17pm Deano de los Muertos: I don’t think you could star in a movie about Johnny Cash, Jim. No offense
	6:18pm Audiocarp: Is “joker” a reboot, a spin-off or a franchise?
	6:18pm DanFA: Ugh
	6:18pm DjLorraine: We have tickets
	6:19pm DanFA: Do we really need a Trump movie? I'm sick of him.
	6:22pm i̺k̺e̺: ↳ Audiocarp @6:18 The first one? None of the above. It's Scorsese karaoke disguised as a rebooted spin-off prequel franchise.
	6:23pm Tom from Stirling: Gene Hackman was good in Get Shorty. He's a good actor..
	6:25pm Tom from Stirling: ↳ Song: ""We Live in Time"" by "Jim the Poet discusses" Florence Pugh is my favorite.
	6:25pm Ken From Hyde Park: I know that feeling when I look in the mirror — do I laugh or cry?
	6:25pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Tom from Stirling @6:23 Love him in Royal Tenenbaums
	6:26pm Listener Robert: I didn't see the first "Joker", but from discussion I understand that the weight of opinion in interpreting it was that it did NOT depict the origin of the Joker character in the DC universe, but rather that it was in our world and about a figure who was either familiar with the DC Joker character or not, but who adopted characteristics that arguably were like him.
	6:27pm Listener Robert: BTW, to read this page I always have to ctrl-A to highlight everything so the contrast in the text will be enough.
	6:30pm Deano de los Muertos: the thing about true character actors is you don’t really think of them until you see them on screen and do the DiCaprio meme, whistling and pointing at the screen
	6:35pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Listener Robert @6:26 It’s like a combination of 2 of my favorite DeNiro movies: King of Comedy (more so) and Taxi Driver (less so)
	6:37pm Tom from Stirling: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @6:35 The Joker completed the trilogy.
	6:37pm Ken From Hyde Park: Coming summer 2025: The Penguin!
	6:40pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Tom from Stirling @6:37 It’s kind of why I thought DeNiro was in The Joker..im sure he sees the similarities I am
	6:42pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Tom from Stirling @6:37 But you said it perfectly
	6:45pm chresti: No wonder there's so much traffic in la today
	6:47pm Tom from Stirling: We have a cousin we call Cousin Fredo. His name is Anthony.
