Genre headline

When The Batman which is mystery thriller defined as superhero movie, then why is Joker defined as psychological thriller film when it is just another comic book movie. Ashokkumar047 (talk) 15:29, 19 December 2022 (UTC)

Because, quite clearly, Joker is about a superhero who saves people and defeats bad guys. Give me a break. Cardei012597 (talk) 01:17, 21 December 2022 (UTC)

That was a bit too sarcastic, but you should get the point. Joker is not a superhero movie because Joker is not a superhero. A superhero saves people, or fights to protect the innocent, and the character Joker in the film does not represent the qualities associated with superheroism.

Additional Music Omission

There is no mention of the Jackson C. Frank song My Name is Carnival which is used in the film. This is a significant omission as the song both in terms of the lyrics and the tone speak to the essential essence of the character. There is also a subtler sub-text which must have been deliberate , insofar as the tragic life and lack of recognition that the singer Jackson C. Frank experienced mirrors in no small part the experience of the fictional character Arthur Fleck. Dorchdaddy1! (talk) 16:29, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

Edit genre

May I know from which source we are retrieving the genre for a movie? Ashokkumar047 (talk) 10:45, 28 July 2023 (UTC)

Genre is formed by consensu, not sources. NEDOCHAN (talk) 22:05, 30 July 2023 (UTC)

Since when? Is the genre policy different between movies and albums? I distinctly remember a few issues with "unsourced genres" from albums in the past. Though I agree it is definitely a thriller and not a crime film, last I checked it was listed as a psychological thriller, and in my eyes it deserves the designation easily. What happened there?
