Suicide Squad: General Discussion and Speculation - - - - - - - - - - Part 27

[FunkMiller]

Wonder if Tom Hardy saw something bad in Suicide Squad

Hmmmm. Excellent point. I thought that all seemed a bit woolly at the time - just not necessarily for that reason.

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

So will this once and for all kill DC's dark and gritty approach? Don't get me wrong GL wasn't dark and gritty and it sucked but with people hating the cold, crule and brooding tone of the DCEU I wonder if WB will just straight up drop that approach already.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Jesus Christ. Are people and critics whining about the color grading? ****ing cry babies. Ill take MOS, BvS, and SS cinematography over the MCU's bland bright "happy" cinematography any day.

MoS yes. BvS no. Haven't seen SS yet. But are those the only two options? Because I went to the theater last year and saw Fury Road and TFA.

And what did you think of El Diablo?

He was fine. Serviceable. Nothing special? He got a lot more screen time than I expected. And he's way more sympathetic than I expected too. Which I wasn't a fan of across the board

 

[Plaidchuck]

See ya in 10 months, when WW gets a 15%

Remember how bland he was as Alex Murphy in the first 30 min of RoboCop? So, that, but for a whole movie and with a stuuuuuuuupid subplot

He was pretty good in RoboCop, with what he had. Including the first 30 mins.

I don't understand why everyone have something against DC.... DC is iconic, DC is history, DC is original, DC's characters are mythological and dates back to 1940s.. many of its characters dates back to this time.. why does everyone hate the original but love the copy? ffs.

none of that has anything to do with why critics don't like this movie

He said it was ****ing alley

No he wasn't. He was the meaning of dull in RoboCop.

Edit: I also think the critics are biased... they probably are tired and wants to destroy the superhero genre.. so it's easier to pick on the fresh DC universe.

I love DC. Which is why the films being in the state they are doesn't sit well with me.

 

[-JKR-]

No people hate DC's new movies not DC proper.

"People hate".

Yeah, Batman V Superman got lots of flack, but it's not like there aren't people who enjoyed it, as well. And their opinion is just as valid as the others', who are on the opposite side.

if anything, it will leave them even more confused. this was supposed to be their fun movie and it blew up in their faces yet again.

His origin in the comics is that he accidentally murdered innocent people. I kinda expected Diablo would be the redeemer.

Lol some people are funny, i keep seeing this excuse thrown around.

"I don't have the money to go see a movie that i was anticipating so if the critics don't like it i'm not going to go see it."

If you don't have enough money to watch a movie then your priority should be making enough money so you can watch them and form an opinion yourself.

No.

“Warner Bros. is my home studio and I love them so I was really bummed out. I wanted to work on that and I know the script is really ****ing alley and I also know what’s gonna happen with The Joker and Harley Quinn in that; I won’t give away too much…it’s ****ing alley. And that whole territory is something that I would certainly—I mean, everybody loves The Joker. Everybody loves The Joker. Will Smith is a dope guy, but everybody loves The Joker and that’s gonna, I think, be a very important film for fans.”

“There’s a very practical element as to why I’ve missed out on that foray, which is because Alejandro [G. Inarritu] has overshot by three months in Calgary, so we’ve got to go back out to Patagonia or Alaska to continue shooting The Revenant which has turned into a much bigger beast than we thought, but that also looks exceptional.”

My wife cheated on me, so i killed her!

I didnt want to do it, but it was Zack Snyder's fault, your honor!

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Considering how awesome Murphy is in the original RoboCop, from the iconic voice to how Weller played the return of his humanity, yeah you are 100% right SPIDEY.

Wow. Did you work for Sony PlayStation in 2007?

RoboCop 1987 is my favorite movie and Weller gives a perfect performance.

So if I'm anticipating about 20 films a year and I only have a budget for about 7. I should change my career? LOL.

That's right folks. Damn near broke? Spend whatever money you earn on seeing a film so that you can soothe the ******** of DC fans.

Which would be fine I guess except they're all way too sympathetic with tragic backstories and "goody goody" aspirations. Aside from one dude on TFX I wouldn't call any of them villains. Which to me defeats the purpose

Your honor as you can see the defendant can't possibly be found responsible after what Sndyer's films have done to his fragile mind.
