@Reverend - same here.He’s always in the squad.Sucks they killed him off before we really got to enjoy him.
Also kind of a bold move by Jai Courtney yelling “F@ck Marvel”last week when obviously his time in the DC sandbox is over.Guess he’s done with cbm’s completely now

@Reverend - That was the point where I realized I didnt like the movie as much as I thought I was going to. I really think that

James Gunn just walked into WB and said "Wouldnt it be wacky if we killed everyone in the first 10 minutes and they fought a giant starfish at the end?" and thats about as much as anyone thought about the plot.

@Reverend - same but I'm hoping maybe Flashpoint is either set before so he can make an appearance, or maybe there's a version of him in the Keatonverse. Or messing with the timeline could just bring him back if they really want to.

@Reverend - for me that was the best surprise of the movie. Just kill Jai Courtney off right away.

@Ha1frican - That's why i liked it. Beside Savant, Rick and Captain i did not give a shit about the team. I thought we are going to stuck with those characters.


SPOILERS !!!!!

So once the beach turned into battlefield i was kinda relief. The director pulled the rug from us. They ended up being just a decoy.
Yes, it would nice for me if Savant or Boomerang made it but neverless ... i liked how the scene ended. With second team having a clear path.

SPOILERS !!!!

@jerryblake - This is one movie I wish I hadn't seen any trailers for. After two trailers, it was really clear no one who wasn't Bloodsport, Harley, Ratcatcher 2, Flag, Peacemaker, King Shark and Polka Dot Man was in most of the footage and none of those guys except Flag and Harley were even in the same shot as the majority of the Squad. It was really clear there were two teams and the one who were in the projection room were the "real" team. Also, Courtney's credit is way down and he's super tiny on the official poster. You can check my past posts; I've been calling Boomer a goner for months.

@IronDean2099 - Honestly it seems like very little if any of Flash's Rogues are even a focus for his movie. I wouldnt be surprised if we get only speedsters for 3 movies

For me that kind of ruined the whole "anyone could die!" premise which is why I was excited to see it. Like yeah anyone could die I guess but after that I knew it would be few and far between if at all bc they needed to develop the few characters they had left. I was hoping for it to be more like Saw or early The Walking Dead where it was throughout the movie. At this point I think Suicide Squad would actually work better as a high budget TV show based on its premise bc I dont know how you do that in that amount of time

@jerryblake - Also I think I might have like that scene more if it were closer to the middle

@Reverend - yeah, his chemistry with Harley and Flag would have worked really well

@Reverend - epic death scene tho and epic seeing his boomerang abilities do some serious damage.

@Tpo81 - believe it or not, there’s a lot of actors who have no desire to be in the MCU. There’s definitely more that DO want in though IMo

@Ha1frican - I mean, the whole point of the suicide squad is that they're expendable. If anything I kinda wish they went further with it.
Origame
Origame - 8/8/2021, 8:25 AM
@DalekCraigWasson - id say boomerang was the only original squad member most likely to die, but I figured he'd at least make it half way through.

@Reverend - Maybe his son, Owen Mercer, can show up in the sequel that will never happen.
Ha1frican
Ha1frican - 8/8/2021, 10:25 AM
@Origame - Right I don’t have an issue with them killing characters (aside from Boomerang) it was more so that they did it all at once and then barely at all until the end. I’d rather they drop like flies but throughout the movie not just like 5 in some scene and then nothing for 2 hours
Origame
Origame - 8/8/2021, 10:34 AM
@Ha1frican - I'll agree. Maybe like 4 of them die there, the rest get taken prisoner, then die more gradually.

@IronDean2099 - Maybe Flashpoint will erase some of these deaths.

Solid comic book movie. Wasn't expecting much, left cinema pleasantly surprised.
Still this is a movie that will probably divide the audience.

To me - as for now - it's the best DCEU movie. Not perfect but really solid.
I think it's better than ZSJL (which i still liked, but probably is a one or two timer for me). It's got better pacing during 1-st hour.

Anyway - i still have my doubts about main villain, Harley Quinn, and the final fight.
I think some of Harley scenes could be cut or shortened. The movie energy seems to disappear particularly in that once scene Harley is in.

Bloodshot, Peacemaker, Rick, The Thinker and Savant are my favourite characters from a movie. Also liked Ratcatcher 1 & 2.

This is a movie that imo deserve extended cut, more scenes with some of the characters would be nice. For example, as much as i liked Rick we don't get to know what really drives him.

7/10

@jerryblake - Savant? He did nothing, he was a pussy, but I like Michael Rooker

There is no chance in hell WB would have ever let Gunn kill off Harley.
You can tell me he had total creative control all you want but there just is no way WB would give the man carte blanche to kill a character that currently is carrying their entire universe and is played by an actress that is an executive producer.

Still wish my boy Flagg survived tho

DCEU "main characters":

Wonder Woman - 4/10 films (counting BvS appearance for sizable role)
Superman - 3/10 films
Harley Quinn - 3/10 films (higher than Batman due to being a lead in all 3)
Batman - 3/10 films (counting Suicide Squad appearance for sizable cameo)
Aquaman - 2/10 films (not counting BvS cameo for only being a second long)

@Blergh - Yeah I think a lot of that was lip service to try and fight against the whole WB screwing over directors in the past thing. I dont think its a coincidence that the movie they new they'd be releasing right before this was famous for being ripped to pieces by the studio so they shouted as loud as possible that James Gunn could do whatever he wanted. I highly doubt if hed wanted to kill Harley, or say use Batman or Superman that hed be allowed to do that

@Blergh - I guess full total control was the wrong word for them to use. But, I think all in all, he did have 98% control of the movie. If you compare James Gunn’s debut in the DCEU franchise it was night and day compared to whatever the hell David Ayer and Zack Synder released. TSS was refreshing and don’t get me wrong I love me some WW, but 84 was a mess and it does look like WB had their sticky fingers in the writing. Maybe, it’s just James Gunn is a superior director to the others.

@Blergh

Has Harley ever been killed in a Suicide Squad-related property? Genuine question.

@regularmovieguy - About the closest is her off screen death in Justice League. Much like Peacemaker this cycle she was only added to the book for synergy during the first movie.
