Joker is one of the most hyped up movies coming out next month but could also end up becoming one of the most dangerous. Many people are worried that the film will inspire certain groups of people in the US to shoot up public places, especially after some recent shootings. It seems like the US military is aware of this and want to prepare for any possible dangers that could happen.
Gizmodo revealed that the US army has warned several servicemen about possible gun violence from incels and other extremist groups that could happen during Joker screenings. The lengthy email can be read below and could make others paranoid so read at your own risk. Still, it's better to be safe than sorry and we hope that nothing bad happens to anyone.
You have to feel for the filmmakers and actors of Joker since they probably just want to make an evocative piece of art and there's so much hysteria over how it could cause violence. While I believe that they should be able to show the movie, the recent US shootings have been pretty concerning. Hopefully, people watch the movie, know that it's just a cautionary work of fiction and do nothing else.
Joker is coming to theatres on October 4.
