Suicide Squad: General Discussion and Speculation - Part 2

[Jake Cassidy]

Gary Sinise is ****ing awesome.

Lt. Dan needs to be in this movie. I don't care what role, just get him in the movie.

 

[Rapunzel]

Maybe he's crazy quilt, since Patrick Wilson passed?

 

[GL's Light]

The part of Crazy Quilt is obviously poorly written if Patrick Wilson passed on it.

Hopefully they don't kill off Eiling in this one. He'd be a good recurring character in the DCCU. I noticed that DC has a habit of killing off strong supporting characters (Waller in Green Lantern, Hamilton in MOS) which I think hurts them in the long run in terms of world building.

Waller didn't die in Green Lantern, did she? Not that I recall.

Yup.

Waller didn't die in GL movie.

 

[samsnee]

I could've swore she was killed byHammond but admit I haven't seen it since it came out.

 

[GL's Light]

As for characters dying, some characters should die (and not be brought back to life) to add weight to the stories. The better all the characters are, including those who die, the more meaningful it'll be to the audience. They need to keep enough characters around to enhance the world building and continuity and have enough characters die - and stay dead - to raise the stakes and, in some cases, avoid the overuse of particular villains.

 

[Mikelus]

Yeah. That'd be a terrible choice.

Manu Bennett (Deathstroke in Arrow) is 45 and he's good in the role. Manganiello is 38, so it could work, unless you just don't like him as an actor.

Bernthal should get a role thanks to Ayer, he deserves it.

 

[John-An]

Am I the only one that sees Jon Berthnal more as Deathstroke than Flagg?

 

[Broseph44]

Colonel Rickkkkk, ice cream!

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

If Ayer's were to integrate the original SS and Flagg sr. into the mix and use Sinise as the older Flagg I think I would be on cloud nine the entire film's runtime.

 

[erehwon0]

With General Wade Eiling showing up, if rumors were to be believed, how long till we get a Captain Atom?

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

Let's wait for reaction to Waller, The Squad, BatFleck, BvS, WW, Gadot and JL:1&2 before we get our hopes up for anything else.

I agree. DC should built their supporting characters first, to see how audiences react to them, then make a choice whether they should be killed off or not.

World building is what WB/DC should be focusing on, if they want a cohesive and well built universe.

Man Of Steel established the military side of the DCCU, then Suicide Squad could expand it, along with Government figures from either Checkmate or ARGUS.
