SUICIDE SQUAD

[JediJohnnie]

I'm reallllly looking forward to this film. It looks amazing! I hope it actually lives up to the hype....unlike Batman V Superman....

Outside of Deadpool, I was underwhelmed by a lot of the comic book films this year (didn't see Civil War.) I hope this can turn it around.

I'm really looking forward to this one too! I've been waiting for awhile.  I'm rooting for Harley Quinn..."We're bad guys. It's what we do."

I agree with both of the aforementioned posts...Batman V Superman I could have done without but I loved Deadpool. I bought it and had it with me on a recent plane ride and I couldn't stop laughing and it was my 3rd time seeing it. Great film!

I don't think I've heard about this one yet...

I LOVE MY HARLEY!!! Can't wait to see her and all the other crazies in it!! Though, of them, Kitana is not as crazy as the rest of them. I'm hoping they did good. I mean, they had to call everyone BACK so they could get more footage.

I'm anticipating the next Wolverine movie since it will be Hugh's last one.  Then again, they are leading all the Marvel movies into something BIG!!

I'm not sure how they are going to work out the JLA movies though.

Been waiting patiently to see this one as well!!

I saw the recent final trailer and it was awesome. Can't wait!

I have no expectations for this one and that's problem a good thing. I've loved the Suicide Squad for over 30 years so I just want to enjoy the zaniness.

I'm not sure how I feel about this film. Some things look good about it, but some things just don't look right, like almost a 90s or TV quality to it. But perhaps I'm wrong. I'll be seeing it anyway.

I saw the film this week and it was pretty awesome! It's certainly much better than the last two films from DC. Batman & Joker aren't in it very much, but If you like Harley, you should be pleased.

Not all of the Marvel films are a part of the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe). For example, none of the X-Men films are included, nor the earlier Spiderman films. Part of the problem is that in the 90's, Marvel was having some financial difficulties, so started licensing some of it's comic characters. However they found that the licensing deals were not as lucrative as the actual films, so in 2005, Marvel began developing their own movie studio. Once Marvel had their own studio, they wanted to start independently produce their own films. Although the X-Men and Spiderman were still licensed to other studios (Fox and Sony, respectively), Marvel still retained control over the core of the Avengers. Thus when they got together to begin developing the MCU, they started by focusing on the Avengers, starting with Iron Man in 2008. Last year, Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures made a deal to allow Spiderman to appear in future MCU films (hense why his first appearance in any MCU films was in Civil War), with the contingent that other stand-alone Spiderman films would still be distributed by Sony and allows for other MCU characters to appear in Spiderman films as well. So while I agree that Fox did an excellent job with their X-Men films, they are not in fact a part of the MCU and so won't lead to the big climax / event that the other MCU films hint at.

As Suicide Squad is the third in the DCEU (DC Extended Universe), I'm glad to hear that it is better than the first 2 films (Man of Steel in 2013 and Dawn of Justice earlier this year). And since, unlike the MCU, the DCEU does not include any DC TV series (like Arrow and Flash) we only have these 3 films to gauge how well this venture will turn out.

I have never seen it, but I hear it got a bad rating, but the movie is awesome.

The trailer to the movie looks great!

[Clarasimpreus]

never watched but from what i heard not so good

[yaayme]

It's been a month since this post was made, so I assume everyone knows by now what the critics have said about the movie, but I knew it wasn't going to be that good when I first saw the pictures of Jared Leto as the Joker. I was like "Nah...".
