(I love this damn shot, favourite bit in the trailer too)







For all the hootin and hollerin about Leto's Joker, I think he's gonna be awesome mostly because it's really difficult to do a BAD Joker performance.You get more great than not. They're all good in their own way from Cesar Romero to Jack Nicholson to Mark Hamill to Heath Ledger to even Michael Emmerson (in Dark Knight Returns animated, freakin fatastic) and John DiMaggio (Under the Red Hood - Also fantastic!) Leto will be awesome but the character is awesome anyway.

 

Despite being absolutely creeped out by the trailer, i'm growing to look forward as I learn more about this film.

 

the fact the trailer is legit creepy I think is a selling point. Ayer does not make movies about happy people! (Well, okay the guys in End of Watch were KINDA happy, sorta, at points). While Grimdarking Superman I think is a bit of an odd choice, I'm totally fine with this movie going down a nihilistic rabbit hole, that would fit.

 

Not for me. Dark Knight is one of my favourite films despite some creepy characters, but that was more about oblique motivation and dual identity. Suicide Squad just looks like it wants to kick your door in, spray blood in your living room, light a pile of cannabis square in the middle of the room and staple your cat to the TV.

I'm warming to it.

 

For me, Viola Davis as the Wall is the highlight along with the live action debut of Harley Quinn which looks amazing so far. The rest I could care less about- including Leto's Joker.

 

Saw some of the cast talking about their characters. Apparently Slipknot likes to assume he was captured strangling Wonder Woman. Kind of doubt that... not that familiar with the character but I feel that would be like Condiment King bragging about beating Batman.

 

Well, that was fun speculation for a few months but PG-13 after all from DC producer.

However, I'm guessing the PG-13 rating is so dangblasted wide now that tons of stuff can happen. Force Awakens just got a PG-13 in the States and that's a Star Wars movie, which has a mostly adventure vibe.

 

Is this subtitle really appropriate? In the trailer, Will Smith talks about saving the world. Why are you guys trying to downplay the main theme of the film.

 

Oh, I like that image of Cara Delevingne. She totally fits the grim, filthy tone the trailer set. I have to say, I'm starting to get legit excited for this. God knows I'm a DCU skeptic and I have plenty of reasons to be. But everything I see from this movie just makes it look better and better.

 

I've been excited about this film when it was announced that Harley Quinn was part of the Suicide Squad; moreso that Margot Robbie is playing the character.

I'm not surprised that this film will be rated PG-13 and really don't see a need for it to be R-Rated. I think DC/WB want this film to be accessible to the majority of the mainstream audience, especially since the film will be featuring Batman (even though it maybe be a small clip or cameo). I don't imagine Suicide Squad being a one-shot film, but a trilogy.

I expect another trailer for the film to hit by the time Batman v. Superman is released.

 

Yes, because bad guys can do good things. The question is if they will do so willingly, or will be forced to do so. In the comics, Lex is evil, but he will save the world when it is appropriate because he sees himself as being a good guy. And any opportunity to outshine Superman, he'll take. Case in point, he fought alongside Earth's heroes during the first Crisis. He helped stop Brainiac from shrinking Metropolis during "Panic In The Sky", made a deal with Brainiac 13 to give up his daughter who was host to Brainiac, in exchange for the B13 technology which all resulted in his becoming President, as shown in "Y2K". He allied with Darkseid and Earth's heroes against Imperiex during "Our World's At War". Lead his Superman Revenge Squad against Zod's forces, while working alongside Superman and Earth's heroes in "Last Son". Helped construct the Miracle Machine which ended Darkseid's reign in "Final Crisis".

 

They aren't nice people, "worst of the worst" is the line in the trailer so, yeah, "bad people doing stuff". Possibly good stuff, possibly bad stuff, probably both in the end. But bad people. Killers and the lot, etc. Even Killer Crocs!

Anyway, I don't think the movie *needs* to be R-rated and it was unlikely, I'm just considering Ayer's output and the tone of the trailer as it coulda been a possibility. Let's just say, if any of the announced DCCU flicks could have hit that level, I'd have weighted it slightly more for this one.

 

New promo photo

 

I mean there are several things that just look wrong , but the Captain Boomerang look they went with alone will keep me from this movie.

 

Yeah, because this...



is so much better.

 

New released poster for Suicide Squad:

 

Nice that they put Amanda Waller on the poster. I think the plot of the movie will be taking down the Joker.

 

Jai ****ing Courtney better not ruin this for me.

 

Looks like they're sticking more or less to the new 52 origin story. Hopefully, this film won't butcher the comics.

 

Actually yep even that look is better than trailer park criminal down on his luck. Alternative here are a few ideas

So many people, sure most will probably be dead before the movie is even an hour in, but halving the number might have been a good idea.

 

You do know that the film version is essentially the same as the comic outfit? Both are wearing coats, both have boomerangs on them.



The only difference is the writing on the shirt.

 

Plus the colour, the stupid gold chain, no gloves (really bad idea btw. considering what his abilty is), that he is not actually wear a zip vest but what looks like a high school sport jacket, also no scarf nor the iconic hat. Also sorry his expression is either him having the worst allergic reaction ever or some really bad trip. Plus why the beard! WHY!

 

It'd be better if he had a big ol' bald spot he covered up with a lame hat.
