100% and hopefully they will give us a New Suicide Squad with Gunn and Safran in control.

[@ethandoyle4978]

Absolutely Also this might not happen , but I think another way to continue the Arkham verse is through another animated film like this. If there are plans to continue after suicide squad kill the justice league.

[@rocknroller7034]

this is the one!!!!!!!!!! my favorite!!!!!!!! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[@JW666]

Totally yes! In comparison, this one is better than the 2016 movie!

[@Ale_roddy]

Def enjoying these reactions, altho Assault on Arkham isn't actually in the main "DCAMU" that's why it has a different feel and cinematography which I rlly liked. Ig you could consider them elseworlds or just not canon, and all the DC animated movies before Flashpoint were just DC animated movies some connected but most didn't with different art styles and stuff, so it's cool you get both kind of feels in the full DCAMU. Oh and the DCAMU's actual last movie gets skipped over a lot so just so y'all know it's actually DC Showcase: Constantine House of Mystery, and DCAMU is followed up by the Tomorrowverse

[@Jordanmode]

My favorite part was when they realize Batman was in the storage room with them, and it shows all of them making “oh shit” faces. When the story follows the perspective of the villains, Batman is like an end boss.

[@Blaster-Rat]

I like how its hinted when they tell Waller that Spider needed medical attention and she says "Spider? But he's..." and on her screen it shows Spiders tracker far away from the rest of the group

[@lex_rodriguez]

Troy Baker killed it as Joker in this! Wish they'd use him as the live action Joker!

[@thiagoteixeira6537]

He'd be great!

[@chefboyardee4674]

Troy Baker does such an amazing Mark Hamill Impression of the Joker in this movie it is so spot on.

[@Mr_acorn_exe]

Actually, this cartoon is connected with Batman Arkham games in the plot, so the Joker survived after explosion of the plane

[@DareonLawrence]

Technically it isn't canon anymore due to the death of king shark 😢

[@Draco3hree]

[@MercenaryX84]

One of my favorite Suicide Squad films before The Suicide Squad came out. It really does become hard to tell Troy Baker and Mark Hamill apart voice wise, it's almost like a perfect impression. One day I'm gonna have to listen to them both side by side, just to hear the difference.

[@renegade5522]

Baker's voice is a bit nasally and by bit I mean very slightly, I noticed.

[@galaxyquestminute7490]

IMO Hamill’s Joker voice has become more gravelly over time. Baker sounds like early Hamill

[@renegade5522]

@@galaxyquestminute7490 oh yeah, never noticed that, but good observation.

[@DanV900]

Well there were three Suicide Squad movies before The Suicide Squad and this was the first one so that’s an odd comment.

[@easymoneyrad]

Really? I don’t have trouble separating them

[@VforVictory00]

This movie takes place before the Arkham asylum game. Hamill did the 3 main Arkham games and Troy Baker did the Joker in Arkham Origins

[@andhispalmugman6314]

I love Matthew Gray Grubler as Riddler. He’s great.

[@syabilaazri7834]

I always see Dr. Reid could play a comicbook character. Have you see him in Criminal Minds? He can play live-action Riddler if he want too...

[@crashingimpulse]

i need him in other dc animanted movies

[@JohnSayasavanh]

Troy Baker voice both Batman and Joker in different movies. I would love to see him play the Batman who laughs in a live-action movie.

[@Kevmaster2000]

He voiced Batman and Joker in the SAME movie once also in Batman vs TMNT.

[@ScorpionStrike7]

If they do an animated Batman Who Laughs, Kevin Micheal Richardson would be a great choice. But yeah, there’s a part in the comics where the Batman’s voice becomes the Joker’s voice. Would be awesome if that was animated

[@mimic1984]

Keep these DC Animated movies coming guys! ♥

[@skxlter5747]

This film takes place in the Arkham verse, a few years before the events of Arkham asylum

[@DEJKIX]

This takes place before the Arkham Asylum game, not a part of continuity of the DCAU timeline. Love your reactions!

[@mchawk315]

22:45 I love that they have him pull the whole Batman Returns "you missed" hit here.

[@GuardianOwl]

56:21 In fairness, this is based on the Arkhamverse so the filmmakers don't have control of some things, such as the the plant G-string on Poison Ivy, that's her design from the game.

[@mr.moviemafia]

Matthew Gray Gubler would be an amazing choice to play The Riddler in live action, glad they got him for this

[@DCComicsGamer]

Honestly my favourite Suicide Squad movie! I love how Batman and Joker have got their own cool conflict going on and the Squad just keeps on accidentally running into that totally separate storyline - it makes it all feel so much more impressive and epic! Throwing them into such well-known places as Gotham and Arkham also helps too. Imagine if this had actually been the first live-action movie (which had both Batman and Joker), it would've blown minds.

[@chefboyardee4674]

3:30 If you guys didn't know, the guy that Bats is 1v1ing is actually Rick Flag

In the main trilogy of Arkham games joker is hamill, but in the arkham origins spin off it's Troy doing the same voice as this movie.

[@jbearclowater]

Troy Baker does an excellent job as the Joker in this. Really nails Hamill's inflection style.

[@pinktitan3716]

He might actually be the next main voice actor for Joker now that Mark retired. He’s the closest that sounds like him. 😁😁😁💚💚💚💜💜💜

[@rexarsenio9447]

Damn I never realized this was from the Arkham verse and I didn't believe it until I saw Penguin on the iceberg lounge lol That warehouse fight is how I always wanted Batman live action to fight, it's closer to Ben Affleck but it always felt like he was slower and more on brute strength. This Batman really looked like in perfect shape and the perfect balance of strength, speed, technique, battle instinct and flexibility. The true meaning of peak human physical condition. Also, a live action Poison Ivy Batman movie where everyone in Gotham is slowly getting charmed including his allies w/o any indicators and they all turn against Batman as he tries to figure out what's happening would be dope.

I Love this movie, all the Arkham game references and designs for the characters, the action is great, the voice cast is Spectacular, the comedy hits it's mark when it does, and the chemistry between the squad members is always fun to watch, and this is my favorite Killer Frost Design 😍 and yeah they did my boy King Shark Dirty 😭

[@BrunoSilva1995]

It is from the Arkhamverse so the references had to be there and I agree it was a good movie

[@BlackGirlMarvel]

CCH Pounder as Amanda Waller is brilliant. As much as I love Viola Davis, I would've loved to see CCH Pounder in the role.

[@brettdiving2744]

Hamill voiced Joker in Arkham Asylum, Arkham City, and Arkham Knight. Troy voiced him in Arkham Origins. And yeah, Troy does a phenomenal job with the Joker both here and in Origins (and in the recent Long Halloween animated films I believe). He really needs more Joker roles to play either in animation or gaming. He's so good.

[@zeldagameryt4018]

Oh heck yeah. But the only problem is that after playing Bioshock Infinite I can still heard the Booker Dewitt in his voice

[@SomeRandomMario]

What I find funny is that Deadshot gets his freedom and is a badass who gets away from Batman but then in the sequel game Arkham City he comes back and is literally a one hit win.

[@thenerdupstairs5705]

[@johanstenfelt1206]

A pretty interesting Movie, i wish they could’ve done more Stories within the Arkhamverse in other Media. A Show would’ve been interesting.

[@k.delpino1124]

When people hear about this one as the part of The Arkham game series, so many lost their s***. Not too many people caught that synopsis when this came out. Some heard the title and thought it was an side game that could be purchased like Harley Quinn's Revenge. Now that would've been incredible. Loved the voice-work and storytelling. Made me wanna play the games again and again. Other than that, this was one of the best DC animated films for mature audiences. I hope ya'll check out Suicide Squad:Hell to Pay (2018). Separate story and it is indeed a dozey.

[@salti9983]

It's very interesting watching this movie again after the announcement and trailers for the new game, 'Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League', which takes place in the Arkhamverse, and changes so many things to the point where this movie has been basically ignored and retconned. The two biggest examples of this are King Shark and Deadshot. In the new game, King Shark is still Nanaue, looks very different because he's actually a shark, and he's very much alive. And, as for Deadshot, he also looks quite different, and the devs explained this by saying the older Deadshot was an imposter the whole time, even though he definitely appeared in two of the games and was very good for an imposter.
