This week’s meme started the way many other memes have started before — by making fun of someone’s tweet.
Few films in recent memory have caused as much debate as Joker. Starring Joaquin Phoenix and directed by Todd Phillips, the film was the natural outcome of many years of films following the tried and true superhero format: an art film packaged for mainstream audiences. It’s also a meme goldmine.

This Joker meme started the way many other memes have started before — by making fun of someone’s tweet. The original post highlights one of the Joker‘s many dance scenes and calls it “The dance of freedom. The death bells. The rising of the Joker,” which is pretty hilarious. So people had to jump onboard and add scenes or music that improved on the original, providing a wide variety of hilarious versions.
