It seems that every generation gets a new version of Batman, and with it comes a new take on his arch-nemesis, the Joker. On October 4, Gotham City’s Clown Prince of Crime is at the center of JOKER, his very own solo movie. Joaquin Phoenix plays the iconic villain. The award-winning actor has some very big clown shoes to fill, as he follows in the footsteps of actors like Jack Nicholson and Heath Ledger.
This movie, however, is nothing like any previous BATMAN film. In fact, it is completely different from any comic book movie you’ve seen before. Let’s take a closer look at the trailer for JOKER and break down the five most important things you need to know about this exciting new take on the classic villain.
Watch even a few seconds of the trailer above, and it will be immediately obvious that this Joker is nothing like the ones who came before. JOKER is an origin story, which is probably the only thing it has in common with other standalone superhero films. Set in 1981, JOKER stars Joaquin Phoenix as Arthur Fleck, an aspiring stand-up comedian who is down on his luck, to say the least. Arthur lives at home with his mom and desperately wants to make people smile, but a series of disturbing events in his life inspires him to enter a life of crime. The film co-stars Zazie Beetz (“Atlanta”), Marc Maron (“GLOW”), and Frances Conroy (“Six Feet Under”), with Robert De Niro appearing as a talk show host who unwittingly helps guide Arthur onto a new path.
In the 1989 BATMAN movie, Jack Nicholson’s Joker is a mobster who becomes the Joker after he’s thrown into a vat of dangerous chemicals. The origins of Heath Ledger’s version of the villain, from THE DARK KNIGHT, are unknown, adding to his frightening mystique. The JOKER’s iteration of the character is similar to Ledger’s version in that both offer a dark, gritty reimagining of the villain. But JOKER humanizes Arthur. He has a "real" name, a sad backstory, a failed career and mental health issues. Although set in 1981 (historically the most violent year in New York City), JOKER feels relevant in its depiction of a person coping with very real problems.
You’d probably never expect a gritty origin story about the Joker from the guy behind the HANGOVER movies, but that’s exactly who directed JOKER. Todd Phillips, whose credits also include OLD SCHOOL and WAR DOGS, directed and co-wrote JOKER. His involvement might not surprise those who are familiar with his early career. He directed a documentary about punk music legend G.G. Allin, a violent and controversial figure… not unlike this version of the Joker.
JOKER is partly based on the comic book BATMAN: THE KILLING JOKE. Much of its inspiration, however, comes from two classic Martin Scorsese films: TAXI DRIVER, starring Robert De Niro as a delusional loner who takes a violent approach to making New York City a better place; and THE KING OF COMEDY, which also stars De Niro, this time as an aspiring comedian who kidnaps his hero, a late-night talk show host played by Jerry Lewis. Phillips actually got Robert De Niro to appear in JOKER, playing a talk show host who mocks Arthur. It’s a really cool tribute to the Scorsese and De Niro collaborations that inspired this movie.
While JOKER is not related to recent DC movies like JUSTICE LEAGUE and WONDER WOMAN, it does have one important connection to the world of Batman. Brett Cullen (“Narcos”) plays Thomas Wayne, one of Gotham City's wealthy elite. He's the father of Bruce Wayne, the young man who grows up to become the Dark Knight. In Batman lore, Thomas and his wife Martha are famously murdered outside a cinema, in an act that becomes a tragic piece of Bruce Wayne’s history, and the event which begins his transformation into Batman.
It’s rare for a comic book movie to receive awards nominations. BLACK PANTHER opened the door for the genre to be taken more seriously, after it earned multiple Oscar nominations and three gold trophies. Now, there are a few reasons why JOKER might be heading to the Oscars. It stars one of modern cinema’s greatest actors, Joaquin Phoenix, who has been nominated for three Oscars in the past. He is arguably long overdue for his own gold statue. JOKER has also already won a crucial award: the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival. That's the highest honor a movie can be given at the Italian fest, and is often a good sign that a movie will be nominated for an Oscar. (Recent winners include THE SHAPE OF WATER, ROMA, BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN and THE WRESTLER.)

3.1 Earning Points: Points are earned through making purchases on the Site and at participating Cinemark locations. At times, points may be earned via interactions with the Site or Cinemark social media accounts. Points may not be earned or accrued by any deposit or transfer of funds to your Account.
In order to qualify to accrue points, you must identify yourself as a Member by presenting your User ID or required information when dealing with the Site and participating Cinemark locations.
Points that you accrue as a result of your transactions with the Site and participating Cinemark locations will be posted to your Account. Points will normally be posted to your Account within twenty-four (24) hours from the time of your purchase from the Site or participating Cinemark location, but we do not assume any liability for a failure to do so in a timely manner. You are solely responsible for checking your Account regularly to ensure that your points are properly credited. If proper credit does not appear on your activity statement, you should contact us via the Site and then provide any requested documentation to verify your purchase. We reserve the right to determine whether points should have been posted to your Account and to adjust your Account accordingly.
Some Cinemark locations may not participate in the Cinemark Movie Rewards Program. Membership entitles you to earn points only from those Cinemark locations in the United States participating in the Cinemark Movie Rewards Program. We may refuse to record or honor points in your Account, or if already recorded, we may cancel them, if we cannot confirm that they were properly issued or obtained. We may also cancel recorded points if the point-issuing Cinemark location tells us to cancel the points (for example, because you returned or did not pay for products or services for which the points were issued). Neither we nor any participating Cinemark location is responsible for any Reward or offer which is no longer in effect.
If you believe that any Account summary showing the number of points in your Account is in error, you must notify the point-issuing Cinemark location, or contact us through cinemark.com, within thirty (30) days of the date the point was or should have been issued or it will be deemed correct. You may be required to submit documentation (such as receipts) to support your claim. Members are responsible for emailing [email protected] to request points be added back for accidental redemption. However, we do not guarantee that points will be added back as requested.
Points are not redeemable for cash. Points are not eligible for re-sale or exchange. Points may not be used towards the purchase of a Gift Card or alcohol.
There is a 24-hour daily points cap operating as follows: a maximum of 500 points or points on a maximum of 10 transactions may be earned within a 24-hour period.

Points earned for purchasing an advance ticket are placed in a “pending status” basket until the showtime has passed. If the ticket has not been refunded, the points will be added to the Account. If the ticket has been refunded, the points will be removed from the “pending status” basket and not added to the Account.
3.2 Adjustments: In the case of any failure by you to follow these Terms and Conditions or any other fraud or abuse related to the Cinemark Movie Rewards Program, including but not limited to your engaging in a pattern of returning or canceling products or services after the corresponding points have been credited, as determined by us in our sole discretion, we reserve the right to make any adjustments to your Account at any time and to take appropriate administrative or legal action. In such a case, some or all of your points earned through Movie Fan may be forfeited and your Account closed, and we reserve the right to seek reimbursement from you for the cost of any Reward you received upon redemption of points that are subsequently deducted from your Account.

Rewards may at times be provided by film studios. In these situations, the studios and not Cinemark control the nature, amount, and timing of the Rewards.
Points redeemed are applied on a first in, first out basis.
Members can redeem applicable number of points for 2D movie tickets (“Movie Ticket Reward”) as part of the Cinemark Movie Rewards Program. Upcharges may apply for any non-2D or premium format tickets. Movie Ticket Rewards issued to Movie Fan members will expire 90 days after issuance and will no longer be valid. Movie Ticket Rewards issued to Movie Club members will never expire so long as the member retains active Movie Club status. Should a Member cancel his/her Movie Club membership, Movie Ticket Rewards will expire 6 months from the date of cancellation. If a ticket purchased using a Movie Ticket Reward is refunded, the Movie Ticket Reward will revert back to the original expiration date at issuance as applicable to the Movie Fan or Movie Club membership.
Movie Ticket Rewards must be used before any Movie Club Credit (defined later) can be used.

Any such sweepstakes will be conducted separate and apart from the Cinemark Movie Rewards Program and governed entirely by its own terms and conditions.

Physical items issued as Rewards may be limited to one Reward per Member. The one-Reward limit applies regardless of the number of points in the Account at the time and immediately after points are redeemed for a given Reward.
If points are redeemed for a physical Reward, the item will be fulfilled within 30 days of redemption. If the item received is damaged, the Member must provide photographic documentation of the damage to our guest services department at Contact Us. Points will not be refunded once an item has been sent to the fulfillment center for processing. If an item is proved to be damaged, Cinemark will offer the following: (1) a replacement item of the same type, provided available; (2) a replacement item of a similar type (eg. an Incredibles water bottle replaced by a Jurassic World water bottle); (3) a replacement item of the same or equal retail value. If Member does not accept any of the replacement items, points will be refunded to the Account. The size of Rewards received upon redemption of points is not guaranteed (for example, if the Reward offered is a T-shirt, Cinemark does not guarantee the Member will receive their preferred T-shirt size). Points will not be refunded based on sizing issues. Points will be refunded to the Account if the item has not been delivered within 60 days of redemption.

5.1 Program Overview. Enrollment in the Movie Club program is on the basis of a monthly membership fee (“Membership Fee”) as stated on our Movie Rewards page. An active Movie Club member (“Movie Club Member”) will receive one credit (“Credit”) per month valid for one regular 2D movie ticket. Additionally, Movie Club Members will also receive special members-only discounts on concessions at participating theaters.
When you enroll in Movie Club you will receive a monthly credit redeemable for one (1) regular 2D movie ticket at participating Cinemark theatres (and except in certain Cinemark theatres where an upcharge may be added) and will be able to access members-only pricing on tickets and concessions.
Movie Club Members are automatically enrolled in the Cinemark Movie Rewards Program. As such, Movie Club Members are subject to the Terms and Conditions set forth in Sections 3 and 4 above. In addition, the following Terms and Conditions apply. If there is a conflict between any terms in Sections 3 and 4 and this Section 5, the terms of this Section 5 shall control.
5.2 Enrollment, Renewal, and Cancellation. Purchase is required for enrollment in Movie Club. Movie Club Members must be enrolled in the Cinemark Movie Rewards Program (however, enrollment in Movie Fan does not require enrollment in Movie Club and there is no purchase required for enrollment as a Movie Fan member). The Membership Fee may vary based on zip code and may or may not include applicable taxes. The Membership Fee and terms of enrollment will not be changed during the course of the membership month. However, Cinemark reserves the right to change the Membership Fee and terms of enrollment at the time of monthly renewal. If the Membership Fee and terms of enrollment are changed, Cinemark will send an e-mail notification to Movie Club Members prior to renewal with instructions for termination of the Movie Club account (“Movie Club Account”).
Renewal of the Movie Club membership is automatic. Cinemark will charge the credit card on record for the Membership Fee, typically on the 30th day of the billing cycle for automatic renewal. Unless the Membership Fee has changed, Cinemark will not send any e-mail notification prior to charging the credit card for a renewal. The exact date for the next monthly billing will be displayed in the profile page of the Movie Club Account.
The Subscription Member is responsible for keeping the credit card information updated on the Movie Club Account. If the credit card on record cannot be charged, the Movie Club Account will be cancelled and Cinemark will send an e-mail to the Subscription Member notifying the cancellation of the Movie Club Account effective as of the date of renewal.
A Movie Club Account is active and available for use immediately upon receipt of the confirmation email acknowledging creation of a Movie Club Account. Enrollment is limited to one Movie Club Account per Movie Club Member per email address. Cinemark requires that Movie Club Members be at least sixteen (16) years of age.
There is no required minimum enrollment period. Movie Club Members may cancel membership at any time through the profile management page. The cancellation will be effective from the billing cycle following the effective date of cancellation. The Membership Fee cannot be refunded. All unused Credits remaining in the Movie Club Account expire six (6) months from the date of cancellation.
5.3 Use of Credits. Movie Club Members will receive one (1) Credit valid for one (1) regular 2D movie ticket during each month of membership. Except in certain theatres where an upcharge may be added, each Credit may be redeemed for one (1) regular 2D movie ticket or the Membership Fee paid for the Credit, whichever is higher. The Credit can be used to book tickets at any participating Cinemark theatre. Credits may be redeemed only for regular 2D tickets; upcharges will apply for any non-2D or premium format tickets.
Unused credits (“Rollover Credits”) rollover into the following month. Rollover Credits continue to rollover and may be used indefinitely in an active Movie Club Account. If a Movie Club Account is cancelled, all Rollover Credits expire six (6) months from the date of cancellation.
Credits may not be partially used; the entire Credit is to be used on booking one ticket. Tickets booked with a Credit are transferrable and may be used by anyone. However, Credits may not be transferred and are only redeemable by the Movie Club Member who received the Credit in his/her Movie Club Account.
A Movie Club Member can use any number of available Credits in a single transaction. All outstanding Credits must be used prior to receiving the Membership Fee price on additional tickets. However, the number of transactions on a Movie Club Account is limited to three (3) per day. All tickets purchased after the third transaction will be at the non-discounted price but service fees will be waived for all transactions. There are no limitations on number of transactions for the concessions discount.
If Credits are used to purchase tickets but the Member is unable to make the showtime, we will refund the Credit(s) (not cash value) to the Member’s Movie Club Account. The Member is not entitled to receive the cash value of any refunded tickets.
A Credit is not a Gift Card and is not redeemable for cash; it may not be used for any transaction except the booking of one (1) regular 2D movie ticket. Credits cannot be refunded. However, tickets booked using the Credit may be exchanged for a new ticket.
5.4 Member Discount; Purchase Process. Subscription Members will receive a 20% discount towards the purchase of all concessions, except on alcoholic beverages, dairy, etc. wherever prohibited by state law.
One companion ticket can be purchased at the then current Membership Fee price for each transaction in which a Credit is applied (regardless of how many Credits are applied in the transaction). If a Credit is not available to be applied (i.e., after all Credits have been exhausted) a Member may purchase two tickets at the then current Membership Fee price per transaction.
Members must present their User ID, or a print-out or email associated with their Movie Club Account to book a ticket at the point of sale. Members may book tickets online and will receive a confirmation number as with an ordinary purchase. Tickets booked using a Credit or member discount cannot be purchased at a Kiosk. No online fees or service fees are applied to transactions booked through an active Movie Club Account. Cinemark reserves the right to require customers to present an alternate form of identification, such as a valid photo ID, while booking a ticket at the box office with their Movie Club Account, if they cannot present a valid User ID.
