Love the cast photo. The dark tone that DC is known for. I just hope they remove some of the tattoos for the Joker.

Opinions?

[jimmybball]

Everybody looks too tactical. They are taking more liberties with costumes than I'd like. At least they do have a mask for Will Smith, which I was worried about following several other pics.

[ZeN]

Its one step above Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat back in the day.. If you told me this was from a direct to DVD movie, id believe you..lol

[~primetime~]

this looks awful

looks like a teen movie version of Batman

[Shade8780]

Kind of wish Harley's costume was a little more like the classic look or at least Arkham City's.

Margot Robbie is perfect though.

[Droid101]

The Joker is cringeworthy, really. Those tattoos are embarrassing. "Damaged" on the forehead? Seriously?

There's rumours that they won't actually be in the movie. The picture was released on the 75th anniversary of Batman and that's why they were there.

this is going to be shit. I feel bad for these actors.

[Shade8780]

El Gringo is the worst looking villain of all-time :oldlol:

[alenleomessi]

how can a grown man watch this with a straight face? im sorry but this looks utterly ridiculous..
i understand kids like shade getting excited over it though.. i have a 5yo cousin that would enjoy this

[Derka]

The Joker tattoos are already confirmed as not being permanent.

As part of the 75th anniversary of Batman, they used Jared Leto's body as a "history of the Joker" montage sort of thing.

As to the movie itself? Eh. I'm not rushing out to the theater for this one but I won't condemn it until I see it. Harley looks perfect, though.

yes i do.. just not ridiculous movies like this one..

maybe it has something to do with where im from.. kids here dont grow up reading comic books and watching cartoons with superheros.. im trying to imagine my dad watching the guardians of the galaxy :roll: he will throw the tv at me

sure you can watch stuff like this.. but dont act like there is anything wrong with a grown man finding it utterly ridiculous

I agree about dad part and that this movie will probably be ridiculous, but kids not watching cartoons with superheroes? I'm sure Macedonia can't be that much different than Serbia in that aspect.

EDIT - Now I see that the the director of this also done End of Watch, Harsh Times and Fury. This might actually end up somewhat decent...

[bballnoob1192]

lmfao the nolan and MB ones truly opposite extremes of each other. actually i wouldn't be surprise of MB's suicide squad has more robots and a completely CGI character, and nolan's version to have 3 characters cause he doesn't believe in superpower or anything weird.

[BigBoss]

Jared Leto's Joker looks like a mexican thug with a meth issue.

This movie will kick zzz because David Ayer is awesome. I have complete faith in him. I'm not too sure about the art direction so far but I need to see it in the context of the movie. His films are gritty and character driven so it could work.

[ROCSteady]

New trailer for Suicide Squad.

It looks very entertaining but who knows how good it will end up being. Don't love Joker's art design but Leto's acting could make it more bearable.

Margot Robbie looks like she's gunna steal the show as Harley Quinn, great casting there

[JohnFreeman]

Looks terrible

[ROCSteady]

I'm not sold on it myself but it seems to be pretty over the top which will give it some sort of entertainment value.

I dunno how much this concept will work as a story. Plus, I'm not a Will Smith fan and I LOATHE that Jai Courtney guy as an actor. He ruins every movie I've seen him in

[zoom17]

Looks fun.

[SexSymbol]

That's a pretty amazing trailer tbh.
Even more hyped.

[StephHamann]

I would rather watch Margott Robbie in that costume for 90 minutes straight than this garbage movie.

[iBandwagon]

I'm still not sold.

[embersyc]

The teaser was better, but still hyped for this. Personally my most anticipated comic book movie of 2016.

[Nastradamus]

I'm shocked people aren't more excited for this. Looks awesome to me. Especially Leto and Robbie

[Nick Young]

Looks like it has potential to be worse than Spiderman 3.

[tmacattack33]

This a band? Wtf?

[CP343]

Leto and Harley Quinn are the only characters that look good.

[Nastradamus]

So Joker is the villain for sure now, right? I think that makes things pretty interesting.

[Coach Eddie]

This looks decent at best.

[nightprowler10]

I'm honestly starting to look forward to this more so than BvS and Civil War.

[nightprowler10]

https://www.imgur.com/Wc4kPps.jpg

[Smook B]

This trailer looks good. This movie might surprise people.

[embersyc]

You have to wonder if the ending of BvS will lead into this movie. Does something happen where Superman is out of commission and suddenly these guys are needed to deal with some threat orchestrated by the Joker. Obviously Batman is seen in the other trailer, possibly in flashback or maybe he taken out through the course of the movie.

If these stories are truly going be on that level then I would expect BvS to not have the type of happy ending typical of comic book movies. If DC can pull that off I will have some serious respect for them going a new route.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed, but my hopes are not high.

[SexSymbol]

This is probably the only forum where there's more negative reviews on this trailer than positive ones.
Everywhere else it's a beloved trailer, wtf is wrong with u guys.

[KyrieTheFuture]

But will people be in an uproar when Will Smith isn't nominated for best actor for this film?

Shiiiit.

Bohemian Rhapsody fit that trailer like a glove.

Cautiously optimistic. BvS looks ass, so while I liked the trailer, I'm not going to get my hopes up.

Unfortunately, it looks like Deadshot's going to get way more screen time than he deserves in the film, just because it's Will Smith :facepalm

[blablabla]

I like Leto as an actor but i can't shake the feeling that he'll be awful as Joker

trailer looks fun tho

[~primetime~]

Leto is 44 years old...looks like he is around 30

http://static.celebuzz.com/uploads/2015/10/Jared-Leto-Joker-Empire-10262015.jpg


have to say, he ages well

[Shade8780]

Feels like another Heath Ledger ripoff.

[~primetime~]

They are clearly trying to go a different route than the Heath Ledger joker.


This is like a Lil Wayne inspired joker :facepalm

The whole tone and aura of Will Smith just isn't affective playing a villain because he didn't switch up anything about how he regularly talks in movies. He doesn't seem deranged or even cold and calculating, he's just Will who is a villain because we're told he's a villain. At least from the trailer.

Margot Robbie and even wack ass Jai Courtney are acting like comic book psychos and Will sounds and looks like . . . Will.

Maybe he'll do a good job but I think that dude is just not a very good actor in terms of being transformative. Every other cast member seemed to embrace the over-the-topness of the movie except Smith. Overacting in a project like this is cool yet Will sounds like he always does without any menace or intensity to boot

[rezznor]

not impressed with will smith playing will smith.

his character could have been from independence day and i wouldnt have known the difference

[Smook B]

Isn't killer croc like 8ft in the comics he doesn't look all that intimidating. I'm more interested in the less known characters.

[Sarcastic]

Leto is gonna do a great job with the Joker, as long as you put your Ledger prejudice aside.

Robbie is gonna absolutely kill it with Harley Quinn.

Not sure about Hancock, err Will Smith though. Movie will be solid.

[kurple]

Feels like another Heath Ledger ripoff.
really? how so? i dont feel that at all

[Nilocon165]

Just found this thread. Suprised at how many people hated the trailer.

[Im Still Ballin]

Will Smith annoys this for me. I don't see deadshot I see Will Smith

Plays the same character in nearly every movie

[SexSymbol]

Just found this thread. Suprised at how many people hated the trailer.
yeah, considering evey other site loved this trailer

[Nick Young]

Jared Leto is going to be Jason Todd, watch.


Is Ben Affleck playing Batman in this movie? Will he appear?

[tomtucker]

no doubt, that fool is in way too many action movies......stick to comedy

No he won't. I'll walk out of the theater if that happens.

God I hope this movie is really good. Not gonna watch any more trailers until it comes out though.

[nightprowler10]

Yeah where did this idea come from? I thought it was obvious that Joker ends up in jail somehow because of the death of Jason Todd. If this ends up being correct then that would be an interesting twist, but I'm not sure I'd be happy about it. He's been overexposed lately.

And also Zack Snyder confirmed that robin was killed 10 years ago by a young joker.

[nightprowler10]

And also Zack Snyder confirmed that robin was killed 10 years ago by a young joker.
Yeah I remember that now. I'm guessing that's why Batfleck is so grizzled and indifferent to manslaughter.

Having said that, I think there was a line in BvS where Bruce says something along the line of people don't stay good, so I wonder if that was a reference to Jason Todd.

I was thinking Harvey dent or he was referring to Jason becoming red hood (which is what the solo batman film is rumored to be)

[nightprowler10]

Ah so possibly a prequel to BvS then? I wouldn't mind that. Good point about Two-Face as well. If they do use Red Hood I hope they capture the feeling that was present in the animated movie.

Ben Affleck and Geoff Johns have already finished the script for the movie so we'll see

I was hoping we would see a flashback scene like that of joker killing robin in batman v superman. For a while it was rumored it would be in the film

[nightprowler10]

I think that is a pivotal scene in the Batman story and I would have hated for it to be shoved into an already cramped movie. I think they handled Batman's story about as well as they could have in BvS. They focused on the aspects of this Batman that were important for this story and JL.

Knew someone would say this.

I'm actually ok with him, but the "That's Gansta" line made me cringe.

hopefully there's more to it then what we've seen so far, but switch deadshot with his independence day or wild wild west character and there would be no difference. we know he can act, he was great in ali and 6 degrees of separation, but this is just will smith playing will smith.

Honestly, I'm OK with that. Will Smith does a good job showing sincerity when it comes to family in his characters, and that's pretty much the only thing I like about Deadshot.

[Funktion]

Cant wait to see it or ehh lots of Harley Quinn

[Graviton]

Apparently the director's inspiration for the Joker's design were "instagram drug lords". :roll:

http://www.ign.com/articles/2016/06/16/suicide-squad-director-inspired-by-instagram-drug-lords-for-design-of-jared-letos-joker

Here I thought Joker was more than the typical gang banger focused on money, drugs and sex.

I was wondering that too. I don't think it's real.

[nightprowler10]

Yeah a quick image search shows his chin is a lot more normal.

I really feel like the marketing for this movie is done very well. I really don't know anything more about the plot now than I did last year, which is rare these days. Compare that to BvS doomsday/is she with you trailer :oldlol:

On a related note, have you seen BvS Ultimate Cut yet?

[Nilocon165]

They're releasing a one minute trailer for each character.

Way too much.

Even revealed a minor spoiler in the Harley one.

[Nick Young]

It is going to be shit. The people behind the DC movies have proven they don't know what they're doing after Nolan left.

[Nilocon165]

I think this honestly looks really good.

[nightprowler10]

It is going to be shit. The people behind the DC movies have proven they don't know what they're doing after Nolan left.
Well to be fair Nolan hasn't left, and the only 2 movies released yet have had one guy (Snyder) controlling most aspects. This is the first DC project I'm really looking forward to and am maybe even optimistic about because even though it's part of the same universe, Ayer has a very interesting style that could very well set this apart from MoS and BvS.

I'm looking forward to WW movie for the same reason.

[nightprowler10]

So is Harley gonna fall in love with the Joker?
I think Harley is already his boo.

[TheReal Kendall]

There's some pictures of that Harley chick sunbathing top less out.

Some early reviews are positive though they could just be shills.

This is the big problem for me. I've seen a couple iterations of Deadshot through animated movies and tv shows and I don't think Will Smith accurately captures his essence.

[SexSymbol]

It's admirable that I've seen so much trailers and tv spots for this movie, yet I know next to nothing about it and I'm hyped as fk.
GOAT-level marketing.
Everything about this looks cool, got one of the biggest actors in Will Smith, one of the sexiest actresses in Margot Robbie and one of the best actors in Jared Leto.
Even Jai Courtney looks awesome

[Vragrant]

I just hope this movie is not the Will Smith show, but from what I've read there will be a big emphasis on Margot Robbie/Harley Quinn.

The trailers look ok, I like the look of killer Croc. If anybody wants a quick intro to Suicide Squad, I'd recommend Escape From Arkham, the animated flick, it's on Netflix.

Honestly thinking about going on a SS blackout and just watch the movie on opening night and make up my own mind. You should do this too Nilocon. From what I can tell, you'll watch the movie regardless, may as well not put yourself through opinions of potential shills and haters.

[Lakers Legend#32]

This time next weekend, a lotta chicks on social media are gonna be claiming they are Harley Quinn.

[nightprowler10]

I can't wait to see chicks dressing like her on Halloween. :pimp:

This is getting some damn good reactions from people on twitter right now from early screenings.

Yeah my blackout isn't going too well. :lol

Key things I've picked up without trying to:

- It's a very character driven story. As it should be.
- Lots of flashback scenes can be distracting.

There are a couple of spoilers I found out about but nothing major. At least one cameo is confirmed.

[Bobcats2013]

i dont trust nikkas on twitter. they always say movies are good. warcraft and bvs got good reviews on twitter. :coleman:

im hearing from alot of trustworthy nikkas that a bunch of joker scenes were cut and they arent going with the lore of joker/harley bein in a abusive relationship

one of the best scenes from the trailer is confirm isnt even in the movie.

its this one

im starting to believe it when nikkas said the reshoots were to add more comedy and take out the dark stuff

[Nilocon165]

Ok so apparently the embargo got delayed 12 hours.

Shit.

And they also cut out a few Joker scenes like bobcats said.

The idea of them not being in a abusive relationship is retarded because that's the only thing that makes it interesting

EDIT: nevermind embargo is the same. Tuesday at 9 am

I've agreed with the critics when it came to Man of Steel and BvS so if Suicide Squad (my most anticipated film of the year) gets bad reviews then I'll start worrying. Especially because of how promising it looks in the trailers.

At least BvS had pacing problems and controversial lex. MoS had godlike cinematography to go along with a great story and great performances all over topped of by a great villain

If you read up on it it has many parallels to religion and mythical stories.
For a superhero movie story it's probably top 3 with dark night and watchmen.
You have to look at it objectively, man, that movie was great, and better than BvS.

im starting to believe it when nikkas said the reshoots were to add more comedy and take out the dark stuff
That would be retarded if true. The rest would need a great source.

[Nick Young]

this movie is going to be a cluster**** of talented actors wasting their talent. Lower your expectations guys, it will help you enjoy this shit show more.

[Nilocon165]

Yep, it's true.

There was a set video leaked a while back of Joker slapping Harleen and apparently that's cut from the movie too.

If the movie is getting good reviews then I don't mind too much, but why show it in the trailer. What I mind is cutting story elements that make it unwatchable. As long as that doesn't happen I don't mind. Just give me the deleted scenes later.

T mobile is giving free tickets to customers on Tuesday. :rockon:

[nightprowler10]

Btw, I'm pretty sure I've figured out what the reshoots were for, but I don't wanna spoil anything unless asked to.

i agree wit yu 100 dawg. my thing is im scared as phuck theyre not gonna give joker his respect. hes the reason why alot of nikkas are comin to see this movie. i know i aint the only one who would get pissed tf off that instead of givin us a taste they end up selling out his charactr arc by makin him pvssy whipped to push harley over and get that teenage girl dolla. all bout that harley quinn solo movie right tho :coleman:

i remember readin an article a couple months ago sayin the batfleck solo movie is gonna have a bunch of villains. somethin rubbed me real wrong about that dawg, joker doesnt need any help to carry a batfleck movie but affleck might know something we dont bruh

i havent read any spoils yet so im goin in with an open mind nd hoping im wrong bout alot of things. id be lying to you if i said I was 100 hyped. more and more stuff leaking and the hype is droppin quick. may have to blackout until opening night.

[Nilocon165]

I'm not gonna spoil anything, but I suggest you stay for the credits.


But if you want spoilers for what I'm talking about, they're below in white.

It's a mid credit scene with Bruce Wayne and Amanda Waller which basically sets up Justice League

[nightprowler10]

Fire away

Spoilers in white:

So it's been spoiled to me that Flash is making a cameo. He is going to be in Boomerang's flashback. The reshoots started happening around the same time as Justice League filming and around the same time the Flash movie director was changed. My guess is that originally Batman was going to be in everyone's flashback including Boomerang but they decided to make him Flash's villain possibly because they wanna reuse Jai Courteney for the Flash movie.

[nightprowler10]

@Nilocon165: I haven't read your spoilers but have you heard if there is a mid credits scene AND a post credits scene? I keep getting confused because people using different terminologies.

Thing is though, Joker is not a central character in this story. He's not part of Task Force X and not the main villain. The only reason he's even in this story is because he wants Harley back. I only expect him to be in this for 10-15 very intense minutes. And I'm fine with that. We get a nice introduction to the new Joker and he gets fleshed out in another movie, possibly the solo Batman movie.

The rumors about the solo movie having lots of different villains is good news. I think there are rumors that they're going for an Arkham Asylum type of story. I don't know if you've played the game but even though there are a lot of villains, Joker is the one running things and controlling everyone.

I'm glad you're going in with an open mind. Just think of all the great actors that knocked it out of the park in just a 10 minute performance. Just remember, this is not meant to be a story about Joker, it's about the Squad, and Joker is there for Harley's arc.

I just hope there is a confrontation between the Squad and Joker like in the animated movie.

DC fans are praying for a 60 on rotten tomatoes at this point.

[bigkingsfan]

Still going to watch this for free with the t-mobile promo.

[kentatm]

sigh

its getting savaged and once again w/a WB/DC movie a lot of the complaints come from the tone being all over the place, odd pacing, multiple stories that don't mesh, and cool action scenes that ultimately never work well together w/everything else.

:(

[DeuceWallaces]

Yeah this is a bummer. The complaints about BvS seemed crazy to me, but made sense as soon as I saw it.

Reading SS reviews the complaints all seem predictable. They made Avengers before making Iron Man 1/2, Thor, Hulk, and Captain America so the pacing is horrible, it seems like a mash up of 5 movies, and you don't care enough or even know half the characters.

I was hoping for better.

[Nilocon165]

One of the best films this summer. An absolute summer blockbuster. Gamechanging in the Comic Book Movie genre. Amazing performances all round. Thematically it is dark and gloomy, yet humorous.

They seem to have no problem giving other comic book movies good reviews.

[NuggetsFan]

I've kinda skipped out on the super hero obsession outside of Nolan's batman films. I really wanted to see this tho, and kinda made me wanna go back and see everything I've missed. The guy who directed this directed End of Watch/Fury/Harsh Times. He wrote Training Day and the original Fast and the Furious as well. Cast seemed really good all tho I'm not a comic book guy so not sure how they stack up vs the characters they have to play.

Bummer if it's garbage. Reviews seem bad. Gets a 8.9 on IMDB but that's only 6k votes and it'll have the typical blockbuster/superhero inflation.

because most of them are funny and don't have a single dark bone in them, and even old guy jokes like the star wars spiderman joke. They view these movies like things for children, so when a comic book movie, that explores more of the existential problems, god vs man thoughts and so on, they see that as incredibly silly considering only kids read comic books. Though in the same comic books, much darker stories can be found.
I know it's a cliche to say they don't understand, but they really don't

This is probably the mot ignorant thing about critics I've ever seen in my entire life.

Don't even try to come back at me and tell me I'm wrong, because you clearly have never read a critic review of a superhero movie in your life.

Crazy how some people have such a deluded perception of critics.

No kidding. If you like Marvel movies you are probably a comics fan, not just a marvel fan. We want DC to make good movies and are pissed that they haven't had any in awhile. That's why we shit on DC's recent offerings. Nobody has said shit about Nolan's movies, Burton's batman, or Donner's superman.

I'm still gonna go see it, but I'm a little disheartened by the reviews. I really wanted DC's cinematic universe to pan out as a nice contrast/counterpart to Marvel's.

[QUOTE]Warners chief Kevin Tsujihara announced the project in October 2014 as part of a slate of 10 DC films stretching into 2020. Though the studio believed there was enough time to get the movie done, a source with ties to the project says it was a sprint from the start. "[Ayer] wrote the script in like, six weeks, and they just went," he says, arguing that the whole process would have benefited if Ayer, 48, had been given more time to work. But another source closely involved with the film says once it was dated, pushing back the release was not an option: "It's not just that you've told the public the movie is coming, you've made huge deals around the world with huge branding partners, with merchandise partners. It's a really big deal to move a tentpole date."

In Ayer, Warners enlisted a director who had never made a giant, effects-packed action movie. Hiring filmmakers who lack such experience is the trend, and it's often out of necessity. "There are a lot of people who don't want to direct those movies and that's a huge problem," says one producer with franchise experience. "A lot of the proven guys are back-to-back with their stuff, or they want to develop it for five years, and there's a machine that has to be fed. And there's the economics." Seasoned directors are expensive, meaning studios turn to those with less experience, relying on instinct that they will be up to the job. Sometimes it works (Colin Trevorrow on Jurassic World), and sometimes it doesn't (James Bobin on Alice Through the Looking Glass).

A source with knowledge of events says Warners executives, nervous from the start, grew more anxious after they were blindsided and deeply rattled by the tepid response to BvS. "Kevin was really pissed about damage to the brand," says one executive close to the studio. A key concern for Warners executives was that Suicide Squad didn't deliver on the fun, edgy tone promised in the strong teaser trailer for the film. So while Ayer pursued his original vision, Warners set about working on a different cut, with an assist from Trailer Park, the company that had made the teaser.


By the time the film was done, multiple editors had been brought into the process, though only John Gilroy is credited. (A source says he left by the end of the process and that the final editor was Michael Tronick.) "When you have big tentpoles and time pressure, you pull in resources from every which way you can," says this source. "You can't do it the way it used to be, with one editor and one assistant editor."

In May, Ayer's more somber version and a lighter, studio-favored version were tested with audiences in Northern California. "If there are multiple opinions that aren't in sync, you go down multiple tracks

I just watched the beginning of the club scene on instagram where he's going off about Harley and he's like "I can feel this, the ITCH IN MY CROTCH!"

[SpecialQue]

Wasn't Warner all waving their c0cks about how their superhero films are "director-driven"? They need to stop with this panicky bullshit they keep pulling. I've been hearing that if the BvS director's cut was released instead of the theatrical version, it would have probably gotten a higher RT rating. Now I'm reading the same shit, but worse, with this film, the DC movie I was pumped to see. At this point I feel like just waiting for these fvckers to release the director's cut on DVD instead of paying money to see a desperate, hacked to pieces mess.

I just want some good fvcking DC movies, for christ's sake. People think that critics only want jokey shit in superhero films, but the Nolan Batman films and the X-Men series are generally well reviewed and don't fall into jokes/quips. It's not that people just want light-hearted fluff. Just give us some good fvcking movies already.

[nightprowler10]

I really lowered my expectations before I watched it last night.

It was fine. Writing is pretty weak. Harley was great. Will Smith playing Will Smith playing Deadshot worked out better than I thought it would. That scene where he's standing on top of the car shooting was so cool. Joker obviously had a few scenes cut that were in the trailers. Tough to judge Leto's version because he was on screen for less than 10 minutes and it was all Harley related.

Leave your brain at the door type of movie like I expected it to be. It was fun. My wife loved it.

Having read some horror stories about the production and Leto's anger, I almost want it to do terribly in the box office though. Ayer and Leto are known to be hard working guys so I'm pretty pissed that the studio ****ed with them.

I plan on watching it next weekend, but for the record, I have never seen a film with an RT score below 40 that I enjoyed. If the RT score is that low, it usually means that there are fundamental problems with the film's structure, editing, story, etc. In fact, the criticisms that I've read from fans, not critics, but fans, make it sound like it's a shitty movie that people are making excuses for just because it gave them a couple of hours of braindead entertainment. If that's what this is, then sorry, it's a bad movie and was rated correctly.

Also, I fvcking despise Will Smith and have never liked him in anything. I'm going just for Robbie's ass.

It's the full scene of a flashback that was shown multiple times in the trailers

[Springsteen]

I heard there's only 10 minutes of Joker, the only real reason I was interested in this movie. I'll still watch it, but meh.

[bigkingsfan]

Watchable for me, the female teenie bopper love it though.

[Jailblazers7]

Interesting that critics and audiences seem so out of sync with the DC movies. Seems like there is a new audience and critics haven't figured out how to write for them yet.

[Meticode]

People get too hung up on this. In the second Avenger movie there was like 14 minutes of Iron Man or something.

[plowking]

The movie was garbage. Really boring.
And I liked Batman vs Superman, and hated Civil War.

Leto was good in it, and I don't think much of Margot Robbie as an actress but she also did a decent job.

[9erempiree]

So is it crushes Civil War?

There are so many people recording in the theaters.

This has to be some crazy phenomenon.

GOAT status?

Beat me to it.

[rezznor]

40% drop on Saturday. It's on track to be another bust for DC

[jamal99]

I watched it with 6 other people and average rating among us is around 5.5 and I'd give it a 6, they really could've done more with this movie. I didn't like Joker, but I know it's just a small sample and he could be a big part of the next Affleck directed Batman flick.

Will Smith was just Will Smith who is a contract killer who apparently has a moral code even tho he's a sociopath who kills people for a living. Also, he wears Deadshot mask for like 10 seconds because he's Will Smith and the biggest star in the cast.

DC has to stop chasing Marvel and do their own thing. They have awesome characters who can be very dark, so go make some dark r-rated films . They might not even have to be r-rated, just go in a different direction from Marvel.

Also it's funny how SS had all the minorities, Latino, Asian, Indian (as in native American), 2 black guys...

[Nilocon165]

Went and watched it again with a friend who hadn't seen it.

It was definitely worse.

[Lakers Legend#32]

Warner Brothers/DC has to start make good movies, not just successful ones, like BvS and Squad.

[Bobcats2013]

my nikka who hated the movie recommended me to watch "assault on arkham' its the suicide squad animated verson

never heard of it till last night i download that shet and nikkas, i hate the live action suicide squad even mroe now. assault on arkham was so lit it made me question why didnt the nikkas at warner bros just copy this movie?

its phcking crazy how a small budget amine film makes the 200million dolla older brother movie look like grabage

Yeah I never understand that, DC has some really good animated cartoons, just don't understand why they don't make a movie with the exact same script and story. I have seen assault on arkham on Netflix and that shit was great along with other DC animated movies.

It's weird cause I don't like marvel animated movies much, but their movies plus stuff on Netflix is pretty damn good, with DC it is the opposite, great animated stuff but crappy movies and tv shows.

[livinglegend]

Crap movie. Don't waste your time and money.

[oh the horror]

Yeah, what I read about execs panicking and chopping up the movie and reshooting and making this an editing mess is true and it shows big time.


This movie had potential....interesting characters and a good premise but you can just see that they butchered the damn movie. It was almost hard to follow at some points.

[9erempiree]

Are you guys serious?

I am reading good reviews of it.

[coin24]

this movie is probably great if you didnt like it.

with you liking BvS and hating CW


I'm similar, I liked BvS, only cause of batman though I couldn't stand superman/lex/Lois and most of the story:oldlol:

I can't stand marvel films anymore, captain America was torture for me, so boring and so many lame jokes..


Will see suicide squad soon so many mixed reviews

[Real14]

B vs S is better. Movie was not all that great.

[embersyc]

It was the best of DCEU movies so far. It certainly wasn't perfect, but at least there were no moments that ruined the movie, like the tornado scene in MoS or the Martha moment in BvS. I personally enjoyed it. I would've liked to see more Joker and more Batman, and also I would've liked to the bad guys be more bad, should've gone for the R rating. A plotline closer to Assault on Arkham probably could've helped ground the movie better, since at no point is it really believable that they could defeat the enemy of the movie. Still it's worth seeing if you are into these sorts of movies.

[jamal99]

Critics tend to like understandable plots, character motivation that makes sense, and decent editing in a blockbuster film.
I watched SS, didn't even like it, but you can't tell me Thor 2 and Iron Man 3 are much better than it, yet they have positive reviews from critics...

[plowking]

this movie is probably great if you didnt like it.

with you liking BvS and hating CW

CW was average.

The whole movie was about how their superhero fights impacted on the general population, and then the whole movie was isolated apart from that first scene and the scene at the United Nations.
None of the allegiances were explained or made much sense. There was no build up of suspense.

People liked it because it is Marvel and had a whole lot of superheroes in it. Fact is, it was boring, and wasn't anywhere close to as good as the first two CA movies.

[fiddy]

Grown man that watch superhero movies, need to be put out of their misery.

[FillJackson]

Interesting that critics and audiences seem so out of sync with the DC movies. Seems like there is a new audience and critics haven't figured out how to write for them yet.
Is that the role of critics to write for their audience?

[MintBerryCrunch]

It is a passable popcorn flick. Nothing more, nothing less.

[Facepalm]

Just read that there's a good quality screener out already. I'm at work so cannot verify just yet. It might be worth 2 hours of hate watching.

[MintBerryCrunch]

I actually enjoyed him. He had the best lines.

But he's not playing Deadshot.

He's playing a Will Smith that can't miss.

I think Diablo will probably be your favorite character.
This. Will Smith plays Will Smith.

[MintBerryCrunch]

B vs S is better. Movie was not all that great.
Both are majorly flawed, but I enjoyed SS more than BvS.

[MintBerryCrunch]

Considering for me that both of those weren't as bad of a convoluted mess as SS I'd say yes. That's how badly this movie was edited. There were several parts of the movie where I was like "wait.....wtf? Did I miss something?"

Those reshoots killed this movie. You can clearly see this was patched together.

If it BvS was less convoluted than SS, that's saying ALOT.

[nightprowler10]

You all remember I somewhat defended BvS, especially the Ulitimate Cut. Here's my review for SS:

Fun but forgettable. Saying I liked it would be more of an endorsement than I am willing to give it. The movie is chockful of things action movies add in to make the general audience like it. You like stereotypes? We'll throw in one cool black guy, one ghetto black guy that likes BET, a Mexican gangbanger, a crazy blonde chick, an Asian chick wielding a Katana, etc. I mean I know some of the characters were close to their comicbook representations, but you could tell what they were going for. Oh and we'll also add a bunch of songs you'll like for nostalgia and shit.

The Batman/Deadshot scene was forced as hell. I would imagine Bats would've taken him down when he wasn't with his daughter.

I really liked Harley, Will Deadshot Smith, Rick Flagg, and one scene with Diablo was really emotional. Like I'm talking legit feels. People really liked Boomerang too, I thought he was ok. Enchantress was just bad. Bad casting choice.

I liked the action is some scenes a lot, others not so much. Will Smith shooting on top of the car was awesome. Harley had some good scenes. Especially her flashback with Batman.

They really ****ed over Leto and it shows in his interviews. You can tell obviously they cut a lot of good stuff of his out just from watching all the trailers. Probably all the scenes that made him the Joker.

Ayer is being a professional and saying that this is his cut, but it's so obviously not. Management really ****ed this one up.

Hopefully the promotion of Geoff Johns means that Wonder Woman and Justice League will have less interference from the studios.

[nightprowler10]

People liked it because it is Marvel and had a whole lot of superheroes in it. Fact is, it was boring, and wasn't anywhere close to as good as the first two CA movies.
I agree that it wasn't as good as the reviews, but disagree that The First Avenger was better. To me, it's WS > CW > TFA. The biggest problem with that ranking though is that CW is barely a CA movie, and much more an Avengers movie.

Superhero movies are supposed to be fun and entertaining (outside of Nolan's Batman).. CW was just that

BvS was just a bad movie even tho Affleck did a good job (no one is calling him an bad actor)

Why did you even bother watching these movies if you want to see a masterpiece every time you watch a movie?

[Facepalm]

That's my ranking as well

[MintBerryCrunch]

If it BvS was less convoluted than SS, that's saying ALOT.
I think BvS had more editing issues. SS was on par with editing issues for the first 30 minutes, but at least figured out its editing issues before the climax of the film. Mostly, SS was better because the characters were more interesting though.

[MintBerryCrunch]

The Batman/Deadshot scene was forced as hell. I would imagine Bats would've taken him down when he wasn't with his daughter.

All of the character intros were forced. It was so choppy and rushed that it was the worst part of the movie to me. Heck, Slipknot didn't even get an intro, which made it obvious he would die. Would have been better if they introed him like everybody else and then killed him. Skipping the intro telegraphed his death.

I don't think they filmed much more with Leto. I think they are saving his big role for the Batman solo movie. I'm thinking it shows in his interviews because people are putting it clearly behind Jack and Heath. He put in 6 months of character acting for "meh" reactions.

[fiddy]

But not grown men who go on internet message forums to complain about superhero movies?
"who go on internet message forums to complain about superhero movies"

I have no clue who are you talking about, but im not visiting message boards deliberately to "complain" about superhero movies. I just happen to stumble upon stupidity and criticize it.

[plowking]

That is the whole point. CW wasn't fun and entertaining.
Is it too much to ask for consistency and proper development of characters and plot? That seemed to go out of the window with CW.
I didn't ask for a masterpiece. I go to watch these superhero movies mainly because my GF likes them, but also because I know it is just cheesy, fast paced action, and explosions and punch ups. Fine with me. Just do a good job of it, and make sense of it. CW did a terrible job of that.

You can't even explain to me why BvS was a bad movie apart from saying "it was just a bad movie". Where as I gave you plenty of reasons why CW was bad.

- No resolution, or attempt to create one.
- No explanation of allegiances.
- No attempt at building suspense.
- Isolated movie. Movie about impacting the public, yet the public and the impacts they have are never demonstrated outside the opening scene.


The great thing about BvS is, it was about Superman and how he impacted society, and it explained it well. He was an outsider that no one could relate to. That is how he was portrayed to the audience as well. Batman and his intentions were made clear. He was worried for society, and the devastation Superman could wreak on Earth, and his presence alone attracting possible enemies.
All of this was built upon, suspense was created, the main plot was intact. They showed the negative impact Superman was having on the Earth, and the disconnect with the regular person. They also then showed his reason for being there, and his importance, etc.

It was a far better movie than CW.

I am ok with Slipknot's into. Everyone knew he's be the first to go, so I took it as them making it in to a bit of a joke. "We know you all know he's gonna die, so here's Slipknot arriving in a van".

Leto has said himself he shot enough to make a whole movie.

[SpecialQue]

I watched SS, didn't even like it, but you can't tell me Thor 2 and Iron Man 3 are much better than it, yet they have positive reviews from critics...

Thor 2 sucked, but I will never understand the hatred for Iron Man 3. It's one of the best MCU films.

[MintBerryCrunch]

Agreed. CW was a better version of the Avengers though.

[MintBerryCrunch]

Iron Man 3 was better than Iron Man 2. People just hate it because of the Mandarin.

[SpecialQue]

It was the best of DCEU movies so far.

Strong sample size there.

[SpecialQue]

Iron Man 3 was better than Iron Man 2. People just hate it because of the Mandarin.

Most of the criticisms I've read about the film don't make any sense to me, like people saying "Iron Man was barely in it!" As for the Mandarin, I don't like the twist mainly because he was actually a pretty ****ing good villain (rare for MCU films) up until Marvel went full derp and turned him into a joke. Like the scenes of him sending TV messages performing cold-blooded murders seemed like maybe this film would have a great villain and some real stakes...and instead it turned into quips and a lame villain no one gives a shit about or remembers. However, everything aside from the Mandarin is great. Like it was one bad decision away from being a masterpiece.

[SpecialQue]

Interesting that critics and audiences seem so out of sync with the DC movies. Seems like there is a new audience and critics haven't figured out how to write for them yet.

Don't judge these films by opening weekend takes. People were saying "lol film critics are irrelevant" after BvS...and then the film went on to underperform because audiences started hearing from their friends how shitty the film was. Seriously, a film with the three most iconic superheroes of all time made less domestically than Deadpool. There is no reason why BvS shouldn't have made a billion dollars, yet it made less money than Iron Man fighting Captain America, basically a battle between two B-listers in the comic book world.

People are always going to see these movies opening weekend, but if these movies are shit, word gets out. Look at the reaction here...nearly half are saying it's garbage, the rest are saying it's OK or a decent action flick, and then you have one idiot who hasn't seen it saying it's the GOAT superhero film and better than Civil War.

[nightprowler10]

I feel SS might be different because it's getting a lot of good buzz in social media. We'll have to wait and see.

[KyrieTheFuture]

DC shot themselves in the foot. They saw how popular the Avengers were and rushed out their group films without establishing any of the characters first. Wasting the first hour of both movies for introductions ruins any chance they have. Should have done a Batman solo movie first where he fights at least one of the SS cast, BVS, then SS, one or two solo movies for a JL member, then JL. You can't lead with group movies.

That's what pisses me off about this. I was excited about the DCEU because Marvel needs some legit, healthy competition to keep from getting stagnant and I liked that DC was going for a different, director-driven vision. Instead they keep panicking and trying to copy Marvel while also saying that they're not Marvel because they're "darker" and "more serious."

It is literally the stupidest thing i've seen in any movie
