What the world needs now is the ‘Joker 2’ teaser

<p>Two things: first, it’s probably wrong to call Todd Phillips’ Joker: Folie à Deux a riff on Martin Scorsese’s New York, New York — in retrospect, it looks a little closer to something like Herbert Ross’ Pennies From Heaven (and honestly, if you haven’t checked that out yet, you should — there’s a Chris Walken number in there for the ages).
