joaquin phoenix is so handsome wtf

It's all set up for Cillian Murphy vs Joaquin Phoenix for best actor in award season, isn't it?

The last Movie I watched wS "you where never really here" woth joaquin phoenix" . Wildest and most honest cinema I've seen. Locals are Not happen about it!

I think about Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker all the time. I haven’t had the heart for a rewatch yet and also haven’t really had to because it stuck with me so much.

you know what? Fuck Joaquin Phoenix, this man right here is the next Joker https://t.co/BL1RRvzmAB

Two things about the Napoleon trailer: 1. Isn't Joaquin Phoenix a bit tall? 2. What the FUCK is that cover of Radiohead's The National Anthem?

Joaquin Phoenix should absolutely get an Oscar nomination for lead actor in Beau is Afraid. Cillian should win it, but Joaquin's performance is top notch. https://t.co/uFpIQznLbf

Brian Harman (5’7) wins the open. Cillian Murphy (5’7) emerges as a Best Actor favorite after the release of Oppenheimer (5’10). An incredible Napoleon (5’6) trailer drops, starring my dude Joaquin Phoenix (5’8). Is this the biggest July yet for short kings?

It's insane how stacked we are with great content and I'm not counting your shounen filth that you think is quality, I'm espousing real greatness. English volume 37 of Hunter, the final book of Amulet, Oppenheimer, two Joaquin Phoenix films this year, Persona games, MGS, etc.

I'm looking forward to this film, but I’m irked by the fact that due to Napoleon's lower social status, he to seduce an aging Spinster from a noble lineage. In the film, she's played by an actress who is nearly 15 years younger than Joaquin Phoenix. A Very "Hollywood" approach https://t.co/YTMGkaNdOL
