Speaking of songs for the movie, I'm not a fan of how they used bits from 'Without Me'.

2nd viewing : (Extended version) What a pile of garbage, damn, I regret giving it 4/10 the first time, this film is worse than Fant4stic.

I definitely wouldn't say that. As scattered as this film is, it's nowhere near as bad as the last "Fantastic Four" movie. That's quite an exaggeration, imo. At least SS has a few redeeming qualities.

I find them both to be enjoyable, Suicide Squad is obviously the better one.

I can't say I found F4 enjoyable (even under the influence it didn't improve) but yes, I'll always agree that SS is obviously better. Highly flawed? Yes, but like I said, at least it has redeeming qualities, even if they are limited in number.

For me, F4 had absolutely zero.

I can't in good conscious say Suicide Squad is worse than Fan4stic, though I don't think the difference in quality is very big.

I would argue the third act of Suicide Squad is just as bad as Fan4stic (the third act was actually really reminiscent of Fan4stic).

Never saw FFINO because they were my favorite SH group and I was afraid of getting pissed or bummed or something. I actually like SS. Not great, but a fun movie.

 

[Wildcard]

You haven't seen FFINO? GOOD! Do yourself a favor and keep it that way. Trust me.

SS at least manages to be entertaining and have a few good performances. Everybody in FFINO save for Michael B. Jordan came off as bored, boring and without much to work with in the first place.

I bet the script for FFINO makes Ayer's drafts look like masterpieces in comparison.

Dr. "Doom" from Fan4stic> Enchantress and her stupid brother.

Come at me.

 

[Wildcard]

Nah. As badly written as Enchantress was, it was still leagues better than all three versions of Doom we've gotten in live action thus far.

I'll take Enchantress for DDINO any day.

 

[kguillou]

Yeah, Doom was an absolute waste of space. He came out of nowhere and the final battle with him lasted less than 5 minutes. Enchantress...at LEAST the final battle with her and her brother...thingy was much more of a showdown. Also, F4 LITERALLY had the second act ripped out of the film (the film is just under 90 minutes). Like, there is no second act. This movie's 130 minutes so it at least has a first, second and third act structure to it even though its sloppily paced.

 

[Sleiek]

Say what you say about Enchantress, she was a very interesting witch in my opinion. She is almost like an alien.

"Hey at least [the next DC movie] looks pretty good right?"

This is going to be a running theme these next few years

Did you just copy someone's else joke, jokes?

Si.

Screen Junkies still held punches there

 

[Ivan Drago]

The character work in this movie is terrible when you consider every single character is an over the top stereotype. Super Aussie man, Silent Asian badass, Ghetto Cholo, Smooth Talking Black Guy, Big Black Gangster, Redneck Military Man, and Edgy white girl.

And then the poor Native American who's great at tying knots and climbing, who gets killed by the Redneck Military Man for going off the reservation.

That's because the studio stepped in and added the Doom fight at the end.

What was the climax before then?

Most of the screen junkies crew liked the movie.

Enchantress was misplaced and David didn't know what to do with the character, which you can tell by the ending the studio forced him to make.

Outside of that, though, she just shouldn't have been the main villain. The end of the world bit and why she wanted humanity dead was all just stupid.

What was the reason for her wanting to destroy humanity? I legit forgot.
