Comedian Aries Spears expressed his dissatisfaction with "Joker 2," criticizing it for being a musical. Spears argues that musicals typically do not appeal to male audiences, especially turning iconic superhero villains into such genres. He humorously compares mixing musicals with traditionally 'male' genres, commenting on the attempt to make iconic and dark characters like the Joker sing. He compared the move to ill-received adaptations like "Rocky: The Musical" and noted the disconnect between fans' expectations and the film's execution. Despite liking a few childhood musicals, Spears feels the Joker's rendition diverges from its dark, impactful roots that fans loved in the first film.
