This movie was really maligned by studio meddling. BvS got mixed reviews, so Warner Bros subjected SS to major reshoots to basically make it more like Guardians of the Galaxy.

This movie is another example of a highly talented group of people working really hard to polish a turd. WB doesn't trust their people when it comes to the big screen. They were trying so hard to mimic the MCU that they forgot how to do something original.

apparently this movie was rewritten and the villain was supposed to be the guy who was the villain in the justice league movie and their mission was to recover a mother box... It would probably be a much better film...

[@residentfan1521]

There was a fan theory leading up to this movie’s release that claimed that Leto’s Joker was actually Jason Todd due to the Robin statue in the batcave in BvS with the spray paint text saying “ha ha Batman! Joke’s on you!” Joker being a weird gangster in this feels very angsty and is exactly what I would expect from Jason. I don’t know if it would’ve been a better take on Joker but it would’ve been a more interesting one.

[@rnkelly36]

Personally I think Leto's Joker is a great update to the character. The problem with live action comic book movies is to make the character realistic enough yet still cartoonish. Leto does that in spades. The fact that Warner Bros did so much wrong with the DC live action movies is honestly the true problem.

David Ayer swears there is an “Ayer Cut” out there somewhere. I’d like to see it, personally - something with out the bad ADR, and massive painful “PG-ification” of the subject matter. Giant skybeam, inhuman putty goons… Supposedly Leto’s joker is better in the “real” cut too, but who knows?

[@passionsquietrage]

Where was there bad ADR? How did they "PG-ify the subject matter? What was wrong with the skybeam and inhuman monsters? To be fair to Leto, we didn't get his full performance so we can't really say how good or bad he actually was.

[@EbonthePhenom]

This is the way I view it and understand it. Suicide Squad was a part of the DCEU. When James Gunn was beginning to work on The Suicide Squad, in an interview a producer was asked about the former suicide squad film continuity etc. he said “it’s a standalone project… or at least it used to be…” he implied that while no plans for a suicide squad 2 from David Ayer were discussed, some aspects characters would be kept. The suicide squad film is both a sequel and origin film for the new DCU under James Gunn. He kept a number of characters from the original film and there are scenes in his new film that mention “connective tissue” of the old film. (James Gunn planned to keep dead shot but will smith had schedule conflicts)While I won’t say what that is I will say that Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn is in both films. Despite reshoots and WB messing with it, suicide squad was a decent hit and made 800 million. The soundtrack was also very successful. Glad you liked it and look forward to you watching the other one.

[@movieclip197]

THE SUICIDE SQUAD WAS ONE OF MY FAVORITE🔥🔥 AND IM ACTUALLY WATCHING IT RIGHT NOW AND IS ALMOST 5:00 am for me lol

You could go straight to The Suicide Squad next. Or, you could watch the Birds of Prey movie, which further’s Harley’s story, THEN watch The Suicide Squad. That’s how it was released in theaters. Birds of Prey is a strong female type movie, and Harley is the main character. It’s a good movie. The Suicide Squad is awesome.

I feel like you’d love Birds of Prey if you ever feel like watching it, some of Margot’s highlights as Harely are in that movie

[@LukeyDukey480]

Interesting fact that you probably did not know is that the reason why the Joker wears silver grills is because after him and allegedly Harley Quinn killed Robin Batman proceeded to beat the absolute shit out of Joker damaging his Teeth in the process and it’s also why he has his damaged tatoo. Also just to note instead of it being Jason Todd who died it was Dick Grayson

[@passionsquietrage]

The fact that it was Dick Grayson that died in this universe makes no sense since Dick never died in the comics. It should have been Jason Todd, that way they could have at least set up a Red Hood movie.

[@justarandomveryintelligent8934]

Ok so here's the thing about THE Suicide squad. That movie came out in 2021 which was a nebulous time during the DCEU because Justice league already came out and got financially and critically thrashed so WB did not know where they were gonna take the dceu. They were making movies like aquaman, shazam and birds of prey that didn't have any direct references to the extended universe and made no references to justice league. Mostly standalone stuff that might use Superman's name but be vague enough that it might not be henry cavill. Point being that THE suicide squad was one of these semi standalone movies. James Gunn was then allowed to just go fucking wild with picking characters to use and he didn't have to worry about continuity so it never once references this film. So its not really a sequel but it not a reboot either. It was like xmen first class where it could easily be placed in a separate universe had they wanted to.

[@Sherman1fan]

Frist movie didn't do well (at box office). Tried to "fix" it in the next one. Kina part 2, gotta watch it and figure out yourself. Agree about Joker, Enchantress powered up. They tried like MCU and X-men to have continuity but not the same. (starting with Superman then goin on here, continues more later).

I believe Warner Bros really interfered with the movie, but I still kinda enjoy it! It gave us a great Harley Quinn in Margot Robbie, & an even better Amanda Waller in Viola Davis!, buuuuuut on the flip side it also gave us the rather wooden Enchantress, & while I don't outright hate it, still the worst version of Joker to grace the movie screen! Another great version of Harley I'd love to see you react to is the animated Harley Quinn in the tv show of the same name, it's the funniest thing & for my money Big Bangs Kayley Cuoco gets Harley spot on!

[@fireeaglefitnessmartialart935]

@@passionsquietrage I agree. I think the issue people had with the dceu was that they were trying to make them the same way as the animation films. But it wasn't working for live action, at least not with casual/lay fans. I wouldn't say I'm overly familiar with the comic versions, but I'm still a huge fan of dc and have my own expectations. And enjoyed most of the live action films. Mostly.

[@passionsquietrage]

@@fireeaglefitnessmartialart935 You might be right. They were also trying to compete with the MCU, which had 2 1/2 Avengers movies by the time this movie came out in 2016(Avengers, Avengers: Age of Ultron, and Captain America Civil War). That was a huge mistake that could have been avoided if they had just done their own thing and not been worried about what the other side was doing. Jared Leto also got massively screwed over by WB on this movie. The minute his casting was announced (which also confirmed Joker being in the movie), the marketing for the movie instantly shifted to focus almost exclusively on Joker. He's even front and center on the poster art. Then most of his performance was left out of the movie. The movie was also WAY over marketed/advertised. WB pretty much set this movie up to fail from the beginning.

[@fireeaglefitnessmartialart935]

@passionsquietrage yeah. And even so, I was not a fan of his joker. Still ill say he's better than Phoenix's joker. Leto at least got a regular joker canon backstory. But the animated films were able to get away with short clips of story telling. Live action films usually require more drawn out explanations of circumstances. Even none comic films.

[@passionsquietrage]

@@fireeaglefitnessmartialart935 Not many people would say Leto was better than Phoenix, it's pretty much the opposite. We would have gotten more of his story if they hadn't left out the majority of his performance.

[@Charathlie]

2021 Suicide Squad is a soft reboot. Meaning some actors/characters return, but it's not really needed to watch this one (2016). Glad you enjoyed this, I haven't seen it myself in a while. There's definitely some good stuff here, but the editing was the killer of this movie. When the first trailer came out, it had huge buzz, and so rumor has it that WB execs decided to edit the movie more like the trailer (iirc it was set to Bohemian Rhapsody). Hence why there's so much popular music in the movie, people compared it to a music video movie. I think you're just watching whatever DC stuff you want, not necessarily in an order (BvS was before this). But, if you want to follow Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn, next movie is Birds of Prey (2020), before you watch the 2021 Suicide Squad.

One thing to note about the joker/harley relationship is it was heavily edited in post to be more "marketable". It originally was meant to highlight the abusive cycle and lead to harley realising her self worth.

I wish we got the Ayer cut because im so curious about it. Doesnt change this film was written extremely quickly which isnt david ayers fault! just WB messing around again! WB didnt support their artists and routinely made them look worse than they are! its clear in the edit we were robbed of a full harley quin origin and character arc

[@passionsquietrage]

I don't get what's so bad about this movie. We got a fairly good character arc for Harley, and her story is continued in other movies. What we got robbed off was Leto's full performance as Joker since most of it was left out, even though the marketing focused on him completely. Definitely a screwjob on the part of WB. It's one of the many reasons studio execs should stay out of the production process and let the director do the job they were hired to do.

Letto’s not bad, just forgettable. Heck the casting for Enchantress & Katana are perfect, just badly written/directed. It’s like Jim Carrey as Riddler. Perfect casting it just need a different movie. It’s also interesting to see a Joker who (seemingly) genuinely loves Harley

Slipknot is an enemy of a DC hero called Firestorm.

This movie gets so much unnecessary hate. It's really not that bad. Jared Leto got screwed over by WB on this one though. I don't get why people hate/dislike this version of Joker so much. He's not that bad, and we didn't get to see Leto's full performance due to most of it being left out of the movie for some reason(hence the screwjob I mentioned above).

Do a reaction video of The Batman trailers before the movio

Harley is the only positive part of this movie and one of the reasons I loved her here (long before James Gunn and his much needed overhaul of the franchise) is because of the implication that Harley isn't a victim of Joker, he's her victim. She messed with his head, his memories because she wanted him to love her. He on the other hand kept her around so he could torture her back using what she wanted most - his affection. This is such an interesting version of their dynamic, it makes Harley a hella more toxic, but it also gives her a lot more agency in her origins as well as her criminal career. I hate that they removed this aspect completely in Birds of Prey.

I disagree about Harley being the only positive of this movie. We got to see live action versions of some well known villains we hadn't seen before, which I'd say is a positive.

My big problem with this is Waller created the villain that she needed them to defeat. Like, literally she was the cause and solution 😂

[@lordmorklen5166]

that's just Waller - she creates most of the problems because DC didn't have Steve Rogers to tell her trying to win a war before it starts ain't a good MO.

[@passionsquietrage]

That's not a bad thing, it's just part of Waller's character.

Megmage, you need to come over to the mutant side. I think you'd love the X-Men.
