9. An invitation to lunch at Caviar Kaspia was, once upon a time, an offer you simply didn’t refuse.
   Providing, of course, that the bill was on someone else.
   Because caviar, smeared on blinis or piled high on baked potatoes, sure didn’t come cheap.
   There may have been other things on the menu, but no one paid them
   much heed. This was all about lashings of the black
   stuff.

   Caviar Kaspia’s signature baked potato and caviar:
   ‘there are few better dishes on earth…only the price, at just under £150, is ridiculous’

   Caviar Kaspia popped her final tin about two decades back.

   And that site, hidden down a smart Mayfair mews, was taken over by Gavin Rankin (who used to be the boss), and transformed into the brilliant Bellamy’s.
   It prospers to this day. Kaspia, on the other hand, went quiet.
   Until last year, when she reopened as a members’ club in another Mayfair backstreet.
   But a £2,000 a year membership fee proved hard to swallow,
   meaning the doors were opened to the great unwashed.

   Which is how we find ourselves sitting in a rather handsome – albeit near empty – dining room, lusciously lavish, under the stern gaze
   of a stern painting of a very stern man. The soft, crepuscular gloom is broken up by the glare of table lamps, indecorously bright, while a loud soundtrack of indolent, indeterminate beats
   throbs in the background. The whole place is scented with gilded ennui.

   Our fellow diners are two young South Korean women of pale, luminescent beauty, clad in diaphanous couture.
   They don’t speak, rather communicate entirely via camera phone.

   Pose, click, check, filter, post. Immaculate waiters hover in the shadows.

   We sip ice-cold vodka, and eat a £77 caviar
   and smoked-salmon Kaspia croque monsieur
   that tastes far better than it ought to. Next door, a
   large table fills with a glut of the noisily, glossily confident.

   We’re looked after by a wonderful French lady of such effervescent charm and charisma that had
   she burst into an impromptu performance of ‘Willkommen’, we would have barely
   blinked. Baked potatoes, skin as crisp as parchment,
   insides whipped savagely hard with butter and sour cream,
   are a study in tuber art. A cool jet-black splodge of oscietra caviar, gently saline, raises them
   to the sublime. Only the price, at just under £150 each,
   is ridiculous. But there are few better dishes on earth.
   I’d eat this every day if I could. But I can’t. Obviously.
   That’s the problem with caviar. One taste is never enough.

   About £200 per head. Caviar Kaspia, 1a Chesterfield Street, London W1; caviarkaspialondon.com

15. Joker: Folie À Deux director Todd Phillips ‘wanted nothing to do with DC’
    during making of the $200million flop film, a new report has claimed.

    The hotly-anticipated sequel to the 2019 billion dollar Oscar-winning film – stars Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga and was considered a surefire hit for Warner
    Bros Pictures – but was slammed by critics and failed to ignite at the box office.

    The sequel has been roundly criticized for being a musical
    and ‘ignoring’ the DC fanbase – with an agent
    familiar with Phillips’ process telling Variety he ‘wanted nothing to do
    with DC’ during the making of the film, with DC bosses James Gunn
    and Peter Safran notably absent from the film’s LA premiere afterparty last month.

    A source said: ‘If the first movie was about some down-on-his-luck,
    mentally ill guy in a downtrodden city, it makes maybe $150 [million] worldwide.
    Not a billion. People showed up because that guy was
    Joker.’

    In an apparent snub by Phillips, the opening sequence of the film does not include a DC
    Studios logo.

    On Rotten Tomatoes, the movie currently holds an audience score
    of 31% and a critic score of 32%

    The hotly-anticipated sequel to the 2019 billion dollar Oscar-winning film
    – stars Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga – seen with Phillips last
    month – and was considered a surefire hit for Warners Bros Pictures – but was
    slammed by critics and failed to ignite at the box office 

    A DC spokesman said Gunn was directing the Max
    series Peacemaker in Atlanta, which had lost a day of production due to Hurricane Helene,
    while Safran was sick.

    Joker: Folie À Deux is branded ‘bleak’ and the ‘most
    disappointing follow-up’ by critics

    A Warner spokesman added that a DC logo appears at the end of
    the Joker sequel. while Phillips declined to comment
    to the publication. 

    Several frictions are said to have developed between Phillips, DC and Warner- with claims that Michael DeLuca, Chairperson of Warner Bros.
    Entertainment, and CEO Pamela Abdy seemed ‘unwilling’ to say no to
    Phillips due to his huge past successes.

    It is claimed Phillips would ‘only’ speak with DeLuca and Abdy rather than Gunn and Safran –
    who took control of DC two months before production began on Joker 2 in December 2022.

    Gunn and Safran did attend the first director’s cut screening for
    the studio but Phillips fueled rift speculation when he told a reporter: ‘With all due respect to
    them, this is kind of a Warner Bros. movie.’

    Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav also met with Phillips  shortly after WarnerMedia and Discovery merged in April 2022 and was ‘open to filming in Los Angeles if the
    director would make the sequel at a lower price point.’

    The studio wanted to film in London which would have cost around 20
    per cent less.

    However, Phillips insisted on filming in LA with the budget remaining static. 

    The sequel has been roundly criticized for being a musical and ‘ignoring’ the DC fanbase – with an agent familiar with Phillips’ process telling
    Variety he ‘wanted nothing to do with DC’ during the making of the film, with DC bosses James Gunn and Peter Safran notably absent from the
    film’s LA premiere afterparty last month

     A Warner spokesman told the publication the studio ‘supported
    the decision to film in Los Angeles’.

    A source directly involved with the film said: ‘No one could get through to Todd.
    And the one thing about genre stuff: If you don’t listen and pay attention to what the fan expectations are, you’re going to fail.

    Insiders also claim studio bosses did not want to premiere the film at the Venice Film Festival, but
    Phillips pushed back – with a Warner spokesman saying the studio ‘fully supported the decision to bring
    the film to Venice.

    Joker: Folie À Deux has garnered the lowest CinemaScore in comic book movie history as
    the film bombed at the box office on opening night. 

    It has only made $114million worldwide against its $200million budget. 

    The psychological musical thriller — which has been criticized as ‘bleak’ and ‘disappointing’ — officially released in theaters on Friday,
    October 4, but it only raked in $20 million at the domestic box
    office, per The Hollywood Reporter. 

    Phoenix reprised his role as the Joker in the sequel, which
    had earned him an Oscar for his portrayal in the 2019 film,
    while Gaga took on the role of Harleen Lee Quinzel (Harley Quinn). 

    However, Joker: Folie À Deux has been given a D rating on CinemaScore — the lowest score for a comic book movie. 

    Madame Web — which notably also flopped in theaters earlier this year and also received terrible reviews — holds a
    higher score with a C+.

    On Rotten Tomatoes, the movie currently holds an audience score of 31% and a critic score of 32%. 

    The sequel is projected to rake in less that $50 million at
    the domestic box office during the entirety of opening weekend, per The Hollywood Reporter. 

    Weeks ago, the movie had been projected to bring
    in around $70 million – but the number has since drastically
    dropped. 

    Joker (2019) notably opened with $96.2 million when the film first released in theaters
    – and eventually landed a little over $1 billion in the global box office. 

    The first movie – which was also directed by Todd Phillips – had
    a budget of between $55 and $70 million. However, the budget
    increased for Folie À Deux to around $200 million. 

    The 2019 movie garnered praise and positive reviews from both
    critics and audiences – and won the Golden Lion during the
    76th Venice International Film Festival. 

    Joaquin received an Oscar for Best Actor for
    his portrayal of the Joker (Arthur Fleck) – and the film garnered an additional Academy Award for Best
    Original Score. 

    The sequel also screened during the Venice International
    Film Festival last month in September, where it earned a 12-minute standing ovation, per
    Deadline.   

    A source directly involved with the film said: ‘No one could get through
    to Todd. And the one thing about genre stuff: If you don’t listen and pay attention to what the fan expectations are, you’re going to
    fail.

    However, audiences have since taken to X after the
    movie released in theaters on Friday – and shared their opinions
    on the sequel, which features musical sequences. 

    One fan penned, ‘Joaquin Phoenix don’t deserve this. what happened to the script?’ while another
    added, ‘is it that bad,’ followed by a crying
    face emoji. 

    ‘Ironically I feel that a musical, if done well, could have been a good choice.
    It’d show how much of an unreliable narrator Fleck is,’ one typed. 

    ‘But with some original songs, that keep everything vague, not just covers.
    Also when I heard of the ending I snorted fr.’ 

    A social media user wrote, ‘Stop making sequels as musicals if the
    original wasn’t a musical.’ 

    ‘Maybe he [Phillips] only had an hour long movie, and decided to randomly add musical scenes
    to fill the runtime,’ one penned. 

    ‘Joker downfall really needs to be studied,’ another shared, along with a monkey staring out a window. 

    One fan said, ‘the movie sucks. i had to walk out of the cinema,’ while another penned, ‘After years of disagreement….*Joker 2 releases* Critics [shaking hands] Audience.’ 

    However, audiences have since taken to X after the movie released in theaters on Friday – and shared their opinions
    over the sequel, which was also a musical

    ‘Ironically I feel that a musical, if done well, could have been a good choice.

    It’d show how much of an unreliable narrator Fleck
    is,’ one typed

    ‘Joker downfall really needs to be studied,’ another shared, along with a monkey staring
    out a window

    ‘That’s way below what we expected,’ one wrote in regards to the current Rotten Tomatoes scores.
    ‘People are saying this is the worst sequel ever.’ 

    A fan explained, ‘yea this film was bad.
    it was pretentious and dull. has the aesthetic of an arthouse film without the substance.’ 

    ‘It also insults the audience’s intelligence. the songs were also underwhelming too.
    they shouldn’t have let this escape to theaters.’ 

    One shared, ‘The audience that loved the first movie is not the same
    audience running to see musicals. This was a gigantic mistake from step 1.’ 

    During an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Phillips discussed whether he would be interested in making a third Joker film or a movie centered around Gaga’s character. 

    ‘It’s not really where this movie is headed for me. I feel like my time in the DC Universe was these two films.’ 

    Ahead of the movie’s release, Lady Gaga also dropped
    an accompanying album titled Harlequin on September
    27. 

    Joker: Folie À Deux has been branded the ‘most
    disappointing follow-up to the Oscar-winning movie’ by critics, as they cast doubt on Lady Gaga’s ‘thin’ role in the film following its release on Friday. 

    ‘That’s way below what we expected,’ one wrote in regards to the current Rotten Tomatoes scores.
    ‘People are saying this is the worst sequel ever’

    A fan explained, ‘yea this film was bad. it was pretentious
    and dull. has the aesthetic of an arthouse film without the substance’

    The ‘bleak’ sequel, has also received a tepid
    reception from fans, with some claiming Lady Gaga’s career could be
    at risk.

    While the same director Todd Phillips was back in the hot seat, critics have
    said the sequel is just a ‘repeat’ of the first hit but with an added
    musical twist.

    Most critics have said Todd failed to use Gaga correctly
    in the movie and claimed she was only bought in for the musical aspect of it.

    While the majority of critics say Joker: Folie À Deux
    didn’t live up to expectations, others have dubbed the movie ‘bold’ and ‘brilliant.’ 

    Daily Mail’s Brian Viner commended the move as ‘bold’ and ‘brilliant’ but said it lacked any
    thrill. 

    The Independent’s Geoffrey Macnab said: ‘Today Joker is best remembered as one of the most subversive and original films of the last
    decade, while its hugely anticipated sequel is
    just as bleak and formally daring as its predecessor’.

    Meanwhile, the Irish Times’ Donald Clarke gave the movie just two stars but
    credited Phillips’ work for making a sequel following the first movie’s $1billion success.

    Financial Times critic Danny Leigh said although Gaga worked hard to bump the ratings up in the sequel,
    Phillips appeared to have no idea what to do with her. 

    Giving a three star rating, The Guardian’s Peter Bradshaw claimed the movie proves ‘claustrophobic’ and ‘repetitive.’

    Joker: Folie À Deux has been branded the ‘most disappointing follow-up to the Oscar-winning movie’ by critics, as
    they cast doubt on Lady Gaga’s ‘thin’ role in the film following its release on Friday; seen in September
    in London 

    The Times’ Kevin Maher wrote: ‘The director Todd Phillips said there would be no follow-up to the original, but he changed his
    mind and the result is a derivative musical’

    ‘This might be the most disappointing follow-up to an Oscar-winning
    performance since Anthony Hopkins reworked his silky and terrifying Dr Lecter from for the campy, kitschy.’ 

    Along with Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix, other stars that had appeared in the sequel include Brendan Gleeson, Catherine Keener, Zazie Beatz and Steve
    Coogan. 

    Joker: Folie à Deux has faced additional backlash from fans as
    they have claimed that Gaga is running the risk of losing her acting career.
