      I loved the end!

      Spoiler

      It was open.

      Did you see how the “other guy” behind opens his smile with the knife?

      To me, that detail, meant like yeah now every crazy person will be ‘the’ joker.

      But I’d rather think he just survived. I think it’s the main interpretation.

        I didn’t notice that detail

        Tap for spoiler

        I thought he was slitting his throat not cutting his mouth that is a really good detail. Makes sense in that universe where there are no super and larger than life hero’s. Though I kind of wish instead they ended this movie with the explosion and could have a third with more Harley/Lady Gaga than what they gave her to work with in this film
