Joker (As a
Comedy)
by Alex Andy Phuong
Joker leads the 2020
Academy Awards with eleven nominations. Within
the Disney cinematic universe, some might not
know that there was a Joker character in Walt
Disney’s animated classic Alice in
Wonderland (1951).T his “Joker” is
definitely not like the Batman villain.In stead,
he was very mellow, and much like the king who
ruled Wonderland with the ill-tempered Queen of
Hearts. The “Joker” from Wonderland
could actually travel from Wonderland into the
real world even though he already knows the
differences between Hollywood in California and
the notion of Los Angeles being a so-called
“La La Land.” Whenever “Joker”
walks around in the real world, he would live a
simple and normal existence by entertaining kids
at birthday parties. “Joker” believes
that Joaquin Phoenix should win his first Academy
Award in February 2020 even though he saw that
movie opening day in 2019. Since it is currently
January 2020, and since Alice in Wonderland was
made in the 1950s, “Joker” would
sometimes question the nature of Disney remakes,
especially since he was never an actual character
in the animated Alice in Wonderland, and
not even the 2010 live-action version of Alice
in Wonderland, but he was sure glad that he
was never part of the box-office flop Alice
Through the Looking Glass, which was a sequel
that no one really bothered to see when it was
released in 2016.
