The DC movie starring Joaquin Phoenix generated a huge hype before it hit screens. The divisive comic villain movie stirred up a ruckus, generating a mix of 5* reviews and harsh criticism. In spite of the controversy, however, Joker shaped up to be the highest-grossing R-rated movie of all time.

Now, according to Forbes, the film is reported to have pulled in $953 million at the box office globally. Although this does not come close to the $2 billion the Avengers movies pulled in, the film generated a whopping profit of shy of $900 million. Given that it cost only $62.5 million to make, Joker has now been declared as the most profitable superhero movie of all time.

In a glowing review, Variety said about Joker: “Joaquin Phoenix is astonishing as a mentally ill geek who becomes the killer-clown Joker in Todd Phillips’ neo-‘Taxi Driver’ knockout: the rare comic-book movie that expresses what’s happening in the real world.”

Joker is showing in movie theaters now.

When Deadpool landed on the big screen in 2016, it was a much-needed breath of fresh air. After being bombarded with Marvel flicks, Ryan Reynolds debut as the hilarious anti-hero was great for superhero fans over the age of eighteen. The unconventional X-Man drinks, swears, and mocks just about every superhero trope in the book.

The film was such a big hit that it ended up pulling an impressive $783 million at the box office. Up until now, this was the record for the highest-grossing R-rated movie. Now, the far more serious and darker Joker movie is set to overtake it.

In true Deadpool style, Reynolds responded to the news with a hilarious edited photo he shared on Twitter.

The photo was of the iconic photo of Arthur Fleck on the staircase with the words “You motherf***er edited over the top. He captioned the image: “R-Rated box office congratulatory posts aren’t like the ones you’re used to…”

The joke image has received thousands of retweets and fans are looking forward to the Joker digs that will inevitably follow in Deadpool 3.
