Grab your red noses and clown makeup, Joker fans.

After being teased out this week,

the final trailer for Joker dropped Wednesday

and the spot for the Todd Phillips flick

starring Joaquin Phoenix as the eponymous Joker

really hit the ground running.

Reportedly, the film will be a character study

on the Joker's origin and how and why Phoenix's Arthur Fleck

will become the clown prince of crime.

And based on what we are seeing in the latest footage,

this certainly seems to be the case.

The trailer is chock full of homages to classic films

like Scorsese's 1982 film, The King of Comedy

as well as references to Batman and Gotham City lore.

Come on!

Thomas Wayne punches the Joker.

Heck yeah!

When did we ever think we'd see that on screen, huh?

However, if you were looking

for some Suicide Squad-esque Joker antics

involving knives or forehead tattoos,

you might be disappointed.

However, disappointed seems to be the word furthest

from fans' minds.

Joker fans are excited to see this more art house take

on the superhero genre, with many claiming it could be

an early Oscar contender for Phoenix.

So we're going to bring you some of the best reactions

on the internet to the Joker trailer, right now.

First up, @clayappuzzos seemed to sum up

most of the internet's feelings with,

"all I gotta say is that the Joker movie

"is a cinematic masterpiece already."

Which, honestly, might be a bit premature,

but we understand the sentiment.

Of course, a lot of the comments

were bringing on the awards buzz, like Charon on YouTube,

who channeled his inner Joker

with "Phoenix: Wanna know how I got these Oscars?"

(laughs) I sound like Alex Borstein

on way too many cigarettes.

And Katherine V on YouTube furthered that sentiment

with an all caps "I can smell the oscars."

And Twitter user @616kinney gave us this delightful

and definitely not terrifying gif when they said

"Mr Joaquin Phoenix is coming for his Oscar as the Joker."

In fact, a lot of people responded with gifs

of other versions of the Joker, like @nerds4lifee,

who tweeted a gif of Heath Ledger's memorable turn

as the Joker, saying "I like that."

And @SomeKirbyFan took the opportunity

to clown all of Twitter

with this screen grab from the trailer.

It's true.

We're all clowns.

@MasterTarantino's criticism turned out to be full of praise

with "trailer looks generic but can we talk

"about how perfect and creepy Joaquin's laugh

"for Joker is because holy (beep)."

Yeah.

That laugh's gonna haunt our dreams.

Can't wait.

Drewcast35 on Reddit made a great point by saying

"Thomas Wayne punching the Joker...

"I guess it runs in the family."

Hey, like father, like son.

Know what I'm saying?

- You wouldn't hit a guy with glasses on, would ya?

- Another Reddit user, hab27, had one criticism.

"If he doesn't meticulously arrange a billion knives

"around him in a circle, I will be disappointed."

Right? (laughs)

How will we know that this Joker is damaged

unless he gets it tattooed on his forehead?

@Memelord2019 took to Twitter to remind us

"because one killer clown wasn't enough this year."

Yeah.

With IT chapter two hitting theaters next month,

2019 isn't going to be great for a lot of childhood phobias.

We guess we'll have to wait until both films come out

and figure out if the Joker or Pennywise

has the creepier laugh.

(Joker laughing)

And we have to close out the reactions

with this clever one from @Deshay95,

which honestly seems to be the general sentiment

from all of the fans with this trailer.

Obviously, Joker has built up a lot of hype

and since we don't actually see the Joker do anything bad

in the movie just yet,

maybe it'll end up really surprising us

by being the feel good movie of the year.

Either way, we can't wait until it hits theaters in October

which is, holy (beep), over a month away.

But what do you folks think?

Are you down to clown with the Joker?

What other DC characters would you

like to see get the same treatment?

And who is your favorite on screen version of the Joker?

'Cause there's many to choose from.

Let's discuss.
