I don't know if anyone has pointed this out but I'm pretty sure the reason that there's so much licensed music in this movie is because whoever did the soundtrack saw Guardians of the Galaxy and didn't realize that the music was being used in a meaningful way. It's like they just heard a bunch of the hit songs and were like "Oh, shit! This movie is good because of all the sick tunes bro".

[@adama.7735]

It’s been well documented that after the success of the initial trailer (which played Bohemian Rhapsody) and after the poor response to BvS, WB tried to mold Suicide Squad (which was already well into post-production) into something that would more closely resemble Guardians of the Galaxy and Deadpool. WB even got a trailer company to edit the finished movie.

You say "that's just how she is to a weird degree" despite her never having this as a character trait in any other adaptation before this one. It's even crazy because in this movie universe she is complicit in the death of Robin who, is a child. I don't care if they wanted her to have this trait for the movies or even continuing on in her overall character outside of them but to have that kind of cognitive dissonance of a child murderer shaming another child murderer for murdering a child is utterly ridiculous.

Also in the comics the suicide squad often included less powerful villains who just agreed to the terms, it's just that usually they were killed off very early to show how expendable everyone on the team really was.

[@RodrickMarsMoon]

This obsession with solo movies just needs to stop. For real. Cinema lived decades with uncountable millions of movies without solo movies before (and the ones who had was bad viewed), but then MCU created this formula and, boom, "LORD OF THE RINGS SHOULD HAD TWELVE SOLO MOVIES BEFORE EVEN THE FIRST MOVIE, SO I CAN PROPERLY CARE WITH THE MIDDLE-EARTH AND THE FELLOWSHIP!!!" For God's sake, forget this "solo movies" bullcrap; its MARVEL formula, let's just get over it.

[@JustKrin]

There are so many bad decisions there because you could make small scaled solo movies with lower budgets for individual characters and hopefully get a good profit in return and then jump to the higher budget team up movie. Why would you avoid all that? Oh right, money

[@JustKrin]

@@RodrickMarsMoon the reason why is that they are adaptations of different mediums, LotR is as closed to the BOOK as it can be in a film, however the Avengers are comics, and how did they started? With solo issues of the heroes, nobody is clamoring for solo films for the Fantastic Four or X-men because the team origins is close to the characters, they are similar in powers or abilities (counting the mutation aspect, not the different powers). The Avengers, the Justice League and many teams like that are comprised of unique members with distinct abilities, personalities, stories and origins. That's why the solos matter

Wait wait wait. Flagg says that if you die by her sword, your soul is trapped in it. Her husband's soul is in the sword. She says that if she dies, they'll be together. So, wouldn't that require her to die by that sword? I mean, at least she could say if they fail they'd be together, and you could deduce that she'd commit seppuku, but otterendat, you'd think she'd need to give her sword to whoever she's fighting, just in case they win.

And they basically didn't involve those details in his characterization at all, he was just Will Smith but really good at shooting things.

YTers are already jumping for joy if something comes out that is at least dumb entertainment on it's basic level and NOT woke garbage; which doesn't mean these movies are actually any good; these are the movies that Hollywood even 10 years ago would have thrown out because of the low standards of entertainment; and we've sunk so deep that those kind of movies are celebrated today because of all the total garbage Hollywood puts out.

Apparently the original plan was for the Joker to be the main villain and, honestly, that would have worked better. Have Wallace's argument be "Batman has repeatedly failed to catch this murderous criminal, let's make these super-powered criminals catch him. If they die, oh well." It would justify Harley being there, because she's bait. The original movie also apparently focused more on how abusive her relationship with the Joker was, and that could still work. Have her time with the squad help her grow from seeing Mistah J as her knight rescuing his true love to what it really is -- the Joker only bothering to save her because he's mad someone stole his favorite chew toy. You can even see shades if that in her intro in the movie itself. Joker was fine with escaping Batsy by driving off a pier and abandoning Harley to drown, ignoring her screams that she can't swim. Things go horribly wrong, the Joker evades capture but the squad stops his scheme, and Batman is all, "Yeah, this is why you leave the Joker to me," to Wallace. Cut out Enchantress (unnecessary) and the fire dude (too OP), so you have Killer Croc, Harley, Deadshot, and then Rick and Katana as handlers to keep an eye on them.

[@ris_din]

This sounds so much better

[@panonymousbloom5405]

This actually sounds like a good movie. Who would have thought that happens when you try to think about the plot.

[@xenxander]

Harley is a fem fetal, not wanting to fuck men but killing them.. and Joker has nearly no sexual interest in any woman but is objectively insane. This pisses off Harely because he's one of the few men she can't just seduce and then kill or castrate.. so she is totally obsessed with him.

I normally don't care for overly negative critique, but your all of these notes are spot on. It is really hard to find any positives. I remember seeing it in the theaters and on the fist shot having unreadable text and the title being poorly revealed, not very readable, and on screen way to short of a time. That was the first shot, and one of the more important shots in the movie, and they edited it like they had never seen a opening title before in there life. How many people in the production saw this shot and said "yea, that will work." And it never got any better. I used raz the Transformers franchise as the most poorly written and edited block busters of a generation, but this is another level.

[@mr_calamity]

The after credit scene bit actually made me burst out laughing. The way there is this dark music playing and then it just cuts to this stock space background and the loud ass music starts blasting with no build up. Actually hilarious how poorly a blockbuster could be edited

[@keyboundDragon]

I think THE Suicide Squad did an amazing job with giving an excuse for Harley's inclusion, she was on the team that was supposed to die, but she ended up being one of the biggest assets to the real team once she was rescued

[@arcanewarrior863]

27:21 In the original script, Joker was an abusive boyfriend, on the helicopter scene, Harley didn't originally fall out, Joker pushed her. So Harley probably took this as being dumped
