Man, Ayer indeed made me realize how much I needed a pimped out Joker in my life.

Showed new #SuicideSquad trailer to friend who didn't like BvS - & he didn't like this either!!! I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!!!

We should make a thread to post about all these journalists and reviewers. The Faraci/Maybe/Grace Randolph thread! :o
 
It's simple: A studio who believes in their characters and stays true to what it is. Not try to make it into something it's not. That's not too much to ask. They got David Ayer who isn't Snyder which is a positive, but I'm afraid now since BVS of all things was so corporate, God knows what WB is doing with the solos. And given the marketing and their recent decisions yes, it's worrying. It's crystal clear where it's flabbergasting: This studio has no clue about HOW to make this work. These aren't unfounded. They're legitimate concerns from a studio that has a horrible track record. I just can't believe especially after BVS, people still aren't at least questioning these things.

Are you referring to the reshoots? Ayer already said the reshoots are not being done to add more humor.
 
I though that was just a fart, but it turned out to be a Faraci. :(

So, from where does one acquire a purple crocodile skin trench coat?
 
Yeah I don't know what it is but even Snyder later movies I just didn't dig. I don't know if I just don't like his style or what I fear for Justice League because Snyder is in control of it. I mean Batman vs. Superman IMO wasn't bad but it wasn't great either. The Fact that Ayer is in control of this movie has me more confident in this movie now if they movie is also a dudd then I will start to question what WB is doing to this Universe.
 
Warner Brothers as a studio handling these characters. The studio who claims to be director driven when the same studio who was loyal to Snyder despite his ****** movies is STILL able to **** up something like this, the spear head of the DCCU for a first impression. If that's how they handle someone like Snyder as someone who has been with them for so long, I cringe to think to what they're going to enforce on Ayer. At the end of the day, it's WB running this show. There's a pattern here. A common denominator. It's no coincidence with every bad DC movie (and most of them are bad) is made by WB. And with them wanting to make a DCCU, do you honestly expect me to have faith in them for anything at this point? Especially with that mess of a trailer?

Ayer said they're letting him do what he wants. They aren't enforcing anything.
 
So is it possible that the guy talking at the beginning of the trailer (David Harbour) is Antiphon?

I have it on good authority about Leto's behavior. And it relates to his ego. Therefore, it's possible. I'm just not ready to be convinced, even if every person who worked on the film said he scared them or made them stop working, etc. It's just hype until the movie comes out.

Ayer himself said that the studio loved the movie so much they asked him what else did he want. I doubt WB is enforcing anything on Ayer, also he's the one who brought Batman in SS not WB or Zack.

Ayer pitched the movie to WB. This movie probably wouldn't even be in the DCEU slate if Ayer didn't come to WB about it.
 
I kinda get what you're saying Doc Jones, but I will say I still have good faith on this movie just solely on the fact neither Snyder or his wife had a hand in the making of this. And plus it's Ayer who directed and wrote it.

I think at the end of the day it will be better than BVS (that isn't hard to do and isn't saying much), but the question is how much it will be. I think whatever potential this movie has will be cut down though thanks to WB.
 
I think this movie gonna be great and do well with critics imho. I hope they show something in the event today.

Let's hope you're wrong.

I doubt critics sanity at this point. They will enjoy bashing the hell out of it. Regardless of quality. Main triggers will be - the tone, sexism, violence against women, Letoker isn't remotely as good as Ledger, not enough levity. And of course - the story lacks focus and characters lack motivation. Also, Superman is mentioned in negative quality.

I loved BvS don't get me wrong, but this will be the better movie for sure.
It seems more focused and cohesive and just REALLY freaking fun for everyone

Critics are people like you and me. If the movie is great, the majority will act accordingly. There is no conspiracy.

There's no conspiracy. Just collective madness.
