2 men arrested without incident at Chicago AMC River East during 'Joker' screening for smoking, being loud, police say
By Chicago Tribune Staff
Flags are flying at half-mast in honor of all the hurt feelings the American Media is experiencing because, despite all of their effort, there were no mass slayings (or even single ones) at screenings of the JOKER.

This weak news story is their cold comfort.

Throughout the sequels, Curtis' character of Laurie Strode remains a victim of her antagonist while Weaver's Ripley destroys all who threaten her.
