About the Joker-Harley relationship in this movie, I think that it COULD have been a good change of pace like Doug said, if both Joker and Harley in this movie where better portrayed, and the relationship better writen. As is, it feels like the writers just went off the impression that fanart gave them instead of the lore.
And the reason for the creation of Suicide Squad is much more logical: illegal government black ops. Plausible deniability and all that. Even if they wanted to make them heroes, they should've started like that and then the government just uses to clean up their own mess...
Wouldn't make a difference without severely changing the script. It's not lack of violence that made the movie crap, it was lack of purpose and a cohesive, interesting story. The movie had no focus. Heck, I actually liked the whole 'Joker/Harley' relationship because of how messed up and co-dependent it was. Seemed like a very sick relationship, which helped sell it to me. The movie should've chosen something and stuck to it, whether it was Deadshot's struggle or Harley's messed up relationship. The rest should've been extras to that.
Even Harley's reason for participating is logical in that movie. It's not that's that great as a fighter, it's that she has an encyclopedic knowledge of Arkham Asylum!
Thank you! Question: Is that an actual Australian accent, a very good imitation of one, or an absolutely terrible imitation of one? I don't know anything about Australian accents, really, so I can't tell XD
Lol it's a good comedic imitation of an extremely ocker Aussie accent. But not many normal Australian's have that accent. Still it's good for a character like Captain Boomerang
Adiaha Alexander Oh yeah, that was definitely a good laugh. But my favorite was Will Smith's horrible line, which he executed just as miserably: "You're an evil lady!" xD
Killer Croc was badass in Arkham Asylum. He was a legitimate frightening villain. They made him three times taller though. He got a nice DLC-sidestory in Arkham Knight.
I think what pisses me off the most about the DC movies is all the potential. Man of Steel, Batman V Superman, Suicide Squad, all of them have interesting ideas. But those ideas are buried beneath a pile of dull-grey crap.
This movie was okay. Like BvS, it's just okay. Both BvS and Suicid Squad have got a lot of problems, but it also has a lot of things to like about it. Still wish they had built up first to these movies, but you know, DC is trying to be their own thing, and not rip off Marvel.
No, DC is 100% trying to rip off Marvel. They're just taking short cuts and trying to make it superficially different (everything must be dark, dreary, and uncomic book like as possible) rather than just focusing on making one good movie at a time.
nah, what's pretty sad is that people think that this movie was trying to copy gotg, EVEN IF TASK FORCE X CAME BEFORE GOTG, not the movie, the comic book team
Dix Axis You're deluded if you think this wasn't trying to rip off Guardians. Literally they changed it all up to rip off the soundtrack thing and the witty one liners, flawed characters who are just about redeemable. It really doesn't matter which comic series came first, fact is that they tried to rip off the EXTREMELY succesful movie and failed.
No seriously, how could you not mention 1) THIS IS KATANA, SHE'S GOT MY BACK 2) Waller shooting her own people 3) Boomerang leaving then coming back In your actual review?!
#2 reason I expected it to be in the review. She freaken goes and "murders" 3 ppl working for her and the reason is because that they knew too much.....an yet Flag was ok by her doing that? that was completely out of character.
4) That's not how the movie ends. It ends with Waller telling Bruce Wayne "I'm pretty screwed by how badly my plan went so here are the files you asked for in return for your protection." And then Bruce tells her that he's making friends and that she should "shut it down or my friends and I'll do it for you."
@Zylo82 Like, that scene left a bad taste in my mouth and confused me! Waller kills more civilians than the villains! And what the hell could possibly be so important for her to kill them? Like, Waller was a straight up villain at that part and faces no flak for it!
Cafeterialoca Waller is a cold harted B%$^. its how she really is. Flag isint. he should have reacted or done something after what she did.......but he didint. Waller is just as evil and scary as The Joker.
Love 3:15 "So she's the bad guy." Actually, yeah. Amanda Waller is the villain of Suicide Squad. Waller assembles the suicide squad (a demi-god, a collection of thugs and one guy who's sometimes a couple of flamethrowers) who're the cause of all the destruction and death in the film (because the Enchantress was a member; even the Joker's only active because Harley) for purposes of stopping another Superman-level threat (a thing that they couldn't _possibly_ do) and that turn out to actually be intended as her own covert ops squad. Because Amanda Waller is the villain of the film. She acts like a Bond-style mastermind right down to a hidden lair and executing lackeys (public employees, btw, same as anyone working at the DMV) while torturing someone into cooperating (the enchantress again) and keeping a hostage (incubus). She's not clever, she's not some social engineer who's the best in the world at "making people work against their own interests" (unless she's also counting herself), she's not some ruthless-but-loyal government hatchetwoman. She's a Bond villain. A bad one because it's pure plot contrivance she isn't dead by films end. The only thing saving her is that she's in a world without heroes. Yes, I'm counting Batman.
I'm a huge DC fan...and I can't stand this cinematic universe. I don't even read Marvel comics and I love their movies, why can't DC give their fans what they want like Marvel is?
Finally a DC fan who tells the fucking truth about the dceu. I'm a fan of both and I hate the WB DC movies. They botch the characters I fell in love with in the comics and let's faces it they don't care they just want avengers money.
I would get into comics, but everyone who I know is into comics were born into them, and if I want to get into now that I’m older, I have to do some research, and there is many issues to catch up on, so I’ve lost hope, I’m just going to stick to the movies.
4:12 Not only was spraying "Ha Ha" repeatedly on the wall stupid, it was something they took from _Batman Beyond_ without understanding why it worked. In Batman Beyond, Terry McGuinness (the new Batman) comes home to find his dad dead and "Ha ha" painted all over the walls, but it was a corporate villain that killed his dad, and the "ha ha" was to make it look like Jokers: delinquents that are poor imitators of The Joker, killed him. The "ha ha" was a poor imitation of a poor imitation of The Joker. In the movie Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker, The Joker does paint "Ha Ha" all over the walls of the Batcave, but he does so because he knows Terry will show up and find Bruce mortally-wounded with Joker gas; it's a genuinely sick and twisted way of telling Terry he's about to lose another father-figure, and thus something The Joker would actually do.
I think it's a lot easier to joke about the bad aspects of a film than the good. So that's why their final verdict is much more positive than their actual commentary.
I've never understood why people compare Leto's Joker with Jim Carrey in a derogatory sense. An over-the-top performance reminds you of another over-the-top performance? Shock-horror.
Honestly, my favorite line was "Normal is a setting the washing machine honey." And then she sets her washing machine to normal in her fantasy. That's the thing that made me laugh most.
10:49 THANK YOU DEAR GOD! Sorry, just... Flagg, man. Colonel Obvious over there. I mean I get that the actual characters don't know what's going on with the sword, but considering the audience got subtitles of Katana talking to her husband... It's like they didn't just violate "show don't tell", they did a halfway decent job of showing and then went ahead and told us anyway, just in case we were too dumb to realise.
I barely know anything about this Suicide Squad movie, the only thing I know is that 21 Pilots and Imagine Dragons were on the soundtrack. Those 2 songs were actually really good
thanks for the comment but i was trying to ask if anyone wanted to see the Nostalgia Critic do a new vs old about voltron I guess I should have made that clearer but thanks for commenting I appreciate it
To be fair, there was a scene that got cut where Joker murders the "so screwed" guy that was meant to be the conclusion of that subplot. Also to be fair, nobody forced them to cut it.
I actually liked Enchantress having to do the dancing for her spells, made it seem far more witchcrafty, sorcery, black magic, pagan, etc... than the usual 'hold out arms' 'point hand' 'wiggle fingers' magic we see most of the time.
What a difference 5 years can make. We go from “let’s have some fun- said no DC movie ever.” To wonder woman (2017), aquaman (2018), joker (2019) Shazam (2019) wonder woman 1984 (that was fun in its complete bat shit insanity), the suicide squad (2021) peacemaker the show, Batman (2022), black Adam (2022) all of which (excluding avengers infinity war, end game, and no way home) have been far far better than what marvel has been putting out in the last 5 years.
I agree, although I don't understand why they thought it was Egyptian. Actually I am Mexican and watching this at the theater, hearing diablo cursing like we do was the most unexpected and hilarious thing in the whole movie, the whole audience in my theater burst out with laughter and it was everyone's favorite part, they were clearly thinking of latin viewers with this line and I appreciate that. :) The rest of the movie is SHIT though. :v
Thank! You! No one is talking about that cringe level scene. I couldn't believe it, I was like "this is brilliant?? This was worth method acting leto?" I'm lost.
Just understood some of what boomerang said at 5:34. At the end he mentions the flash hitting him. "I was playing 'insert some game here' with me nanna when this red streak hits me outta know where."
HellRay the actual movie was stupidly enjoyable. The review questions the squad more than the movie. And made fun of Amanda Waller.... AMANDA WALLER! She was badass lady and movie did it right! So yeah.
TheDisneyLover58 Im not talking about the review, im talking about his COMMENT. And the movie made her a collossal fuckup. The Justice League cartoons showed how great Waller is, she was a WALL! A wall that only gods could scale but only at great risk. That Amanda would of had all of these loons in check as well as Batman. If I hated this movie for anything, its making Amanda a joke, but thats the closest thing to a Joker we got in this movie. I'd hate it, but this movie hasnt really sparked any significant emotion out of me. Its like loosing sleep, upset you lost the time, but not enough to do anything about it and just move on..
Also, the whole "for the fans" schtick, it's kind of annoying for people that either don't have the time, money, or aren't even close to places that sell all of the comics to get on track. And some comics are so hard to follow that you have to look up an entire guide list on what to read and which to read first! Imagine my confusion when I started reading Spider Gwen and having to look up exactly what happened in the past to undertstand what they were talking about.
To be fair, it wasn't even really a defense for this movie anyway. The characters are either so different or their backstories matter so little that it doesn't matter if you know it or not.
"NOT TOUCHING YOU! I'M NOT TOUCHING YOU!" Me watching the NC review (never having seen the film and never will): Hahaha, what a great parody, wonder what actually happened in that scene; did they punch him in the face or something? Did they give him some kind of harsh speech convincing him to fight for them? 7:54 - Not even exaggerated from the review. They really fucking went the route of obnoxious Kindergarteners, oh my god what is this movie.
I despised the soundtrack to this movie. All good songs, but so out of place, slapped in on a near constant basis and so embarrassingly desperate to copy Guardians of The Galaxy (I guess totally missing the in story justification for the songs presence in the film and how the music was integral to the arc and backstory of its central character.)
There's a place in France where I do my mirror dance. There's a hole in the wall where the men can see it all, but the women don't care 'cause they're dancing in their underwear. And their bras. 11:20
Jesus! I feel bad for Doug, not only is his hair line going backwards at the speed of a fighter jet but at 10:18 if you see when he turns his head he has a second bald spot racing to meet the first.
So... Diablo did not speak Egyptian or whatever, he said: "Ya te chingaste wey", wich is spanish for "You are Fucked Dude/dumbass" (wich in turn is a more accurate translation than "You're Screwed"). But I guess somebody else already pointed this out. Bad Script, Sub-par acting, terrible handling of re-shooting... Horrible film in my opinion.
I may be wrong but wasn't the police guard who helped the Joker in the helicopter when it crashed? You should do more of these first viewings they're hilarious 😂
I honestly think that would have been better if they'd left about 30 more minutes of footage in the movie. More time the flesh out the team, and the Joker. Time to reveal Katana and Slipknot properly(that way it would actually be shocking when he died). Time to show what happened to the guard. Time to explore all the members of the Suicide Squad to the same degree as Harley Quinn and Deadshot. Time to make them feel more like a team. Also, while I love reading comics, I shouldn't be required to read them in order to get what's going on. A good adaptation makes you want to read the source material. A bad adaptation requires you to read the source material.
You know what would have worked for this film, if it all took place in Arkham Asylum. There's a major riot within, during a VIP tour, and the squad is quickly formed to protect the VIP's in exchange for an early parole. Simple, to the point, and would give plenty of opportunities for cameo's, and set ups for future movies. Not everything has to end on a world ending climax.
Plus Lex Luthor would have still been in Arkham Asylum after being transferred out of Belle Reve in Batman’s favor, I would imagine that while the riot is happening, he’s just staying in his cell meditating to help his mental state from the Apokoliptian knowledge.
This is katana she got my back. I would advise not getting killed by her, her sword traps the soul of it's victims
John1991 she'll cut all of you in half like mowing the lawn!
Ryan R. This is katara, these got my back. I wouldn't advise getting killed by her water bending, her ice traps the souls of its victims
This she back got my katana is. Advice I getting sword by her soul killed of traps it's victims
say what you will, you can't deny this movie is quotable as shit
John1991 This is Katana. Just watch Arrow Season 3 for to see her with better character development
This movie has as many Oscars as Stanley Kubrick, and more Oscars than Alfred Hitchcock.
Just let that sink in for a second...
Phil Michaels It goes without saying that the Oscar's have 0 credibility nowadays.
It won fkn makeup...so random.
Phil Michaels but its for the fans!
If the Oscars were creditable then Nightcrawler would've won best picture
to be fair, I don't think Kubrick and Hitchcock had any real love for the academy. they preferred to do their own thing
My favorite character is the man who could climb anything.
I was disappointed they didn't comment on his death.
Bobey29 LMAO! He had such an impact in this film!
Slipknot? Oh yeah! He was awes(CUT) .
I cried when he died
Who could forget Climber-Man?

So the rumors are true?
About the Joker-Harley relationship in this movie, I think that it COULD have been a good change of pace like Doug said, if both Joker and Harley in this movie where better portrayed, and the relationship better writen. As is, it feels like the writers just went off the impression that fanart gave them instead of the lore.
"The phone's the bad guy!"
"The lamp's the bad guy!"
Look just watch Batman: Assault on Arkham. It's by far the superior film, despite winning no Oscar
And the reason for the creation of Suicide Squad is much more logical: illegal government black ops. Plausible deniability and all that.
Even if they wanted to make them heroes, they should've started like that and then the government just uses to clean up their own mess...
When i saw this movie in IMAX, i couldnt help but compare to assault on arkham. Suicide Squad was such a disappointment.
DarkDjim they should've made it rated R.characters like them shouldn't have limits
Wouldn't make a difference without severely changing the script. It's not lack of violence that made the movie crap, it was lack of purpose and a cohesive, interesting story. The movie had no focus.

Rob: 😮☝... Okay, why not."
Lol
And there's no recoil whatsoever
it's deadshot, kinda just his thing ;)
Deadshot shoots impossible shot. Say that 10 times fast.
LJ Like Rob said if you set that tone for the movie and continue with it a movie can be far more bearable.
5:33, I'm Australian so allow me to translate "Hey one minute I'm playing mahjong with me nana and this red streak hits me out of no where"
Thank you! Question: Is that an actual Australian accent, a very good imitation of one, or an absolutely terrible imitation of one? I don't know anything about Australian accents, really, so I can't tell XD
Lol it's a good comedic imitation of an extremely ocker Aussie accent. But not many normal Australian's have that accent. Still it's good for a character like Captain Boomerang
Oh, thanks! I just wondered :)
I laughed harder at her weird belly dancing magic than any joke in the movie.
Adiaha Alexander Oh yeah, that was definitely a good laugh. But my favorite was Will Smith's horrible line, which he executed just as miserably: "You're an evil lady!" xD

Killer Croc was badass in Arkham Asylum. He was a legitimate frightening villain. They made him three times taller though.
He got a nice DLC-sidestory in Arkham Knight.
That's not true, remember that one time they needed someone to swim?
I only wrote this comment in response to Doug and Rob's question about why Croc is a thing and that he was never interesting.
Yeah I know, I was joking. Croc was a waste of space in this movie.
He is so underrated.
Nahh he's beautiful
I think what pisses me off the most about the DC movies is all the potential. Man of Steel, Batman V Superman, Suicide Squad, all of them have interesting ideas. But those ideas are buried beneath a pile of dull-grey crap.
Yeah, it's like every so often there's a really good scene or line or joke and you get a glimpse at what the movie could have been.
Suicide Squid? That's like Squidward's superhero name.
I know! I feel the same way. The ingredients are there but they keep burning the meal!

This movie was okay. Like BvS, it's just okay. Both BvS and Suicid Squad have got a lot of problems, but it also has a lot of things to like about it. Still wish they had built up first to these movies, but you know, DC is trying to be their own thing, and not rip off Marvel.
Still find Assault on Arkham to be a greater version of Suicide Squad.
No, DC is 100% trying to rip off Marvel. They're just taking short cuts and trying to make it superficially different (everything must be dark, dreary, and uncomic book like as possible) rather than just focusing on making one good movie at a time.
Mike Duncan I know. I was being sarcastic when I said they're trying to be their own thing.
Pretty sad when a baby tree that says the same three words over and over again is better than an entire cast of notorious villains...
nah, what's pretty sad is that people think that this movie was trying to copy gotg, EVEN IF TASK FORCE X CAME BEFORE GOTG, not the movie, the comic book team
Dix Axis you do know the comics and movies are two different things right

tywozere2 pretty much they wouldn't have made it if not for Guardians Just like civil war was a responds to bvs except way better
CGM Show Civil War was planned and bound to happen before BVS since that one of marvel most storyline
No seriously, how could you not mention
1) THIS IS KATANA, SHE'S GOT MY BACK
2) Waller shooting her own people
3) Boomerang leaving then coming back
In your actual review?!

If they actually tried to hit every single issue in the movie they'd still be writing it.
4:05 -- "The phone's the bad guy." They predicted "Mitchells vs. the Machines."
Suicide Squad should have been about them getting that info on all the "Metahumans" that Batman had.
Nate's Nostalgia you should write for dc
Nate's Nostalgia so rogue one of DC
11:25 Did Harley's normal life fantasy make anyone else think of the "Somewhere That's Green" part in "Little Shop of Horrors"?
My favorite line is from Will Smith playing Will Smith:
"No that's not true, that's a lie. She's lying to you!" the delivery is SO FUCKING FUNNY
Braden Hajer I know this comment is from months ago, but Will Smith’s line delivery for that would give Tommy Wiseau a run for his money.
Love 3:15
"So she's the bad guy."
Actually, yeah. Amanda Waller is the villain of Suicide Squad.
Waller assembles the suicide squad (a demi-god, a collection of thugs and one guy who's sometimes a couple of flamethrowers) who're the cause of all the destruction and death in the film (because the Enchantress was a member; even the Joker's only active because Harley) for purposes of stopping another Superman-level threat (a thing that they couldn't _possibly_ do) and that turn out to actually be intended as her own covert ops squad.
Because Amanda Waller is the villain of the film. She acts like a Bond-style mastermind right down to a hidden lair and executing lackeys (public employees, btw, same as anyone working at the DMV) while torturing someone into cooperating (the enchantress again) and keeping a hostage (incubus).
She's not clever, she's not some social engineer who's the best in the world at "making people work against their own interests" (unless she's also counting herself), she's not some ruthless-but-loyal government hatchetwoman.
She's a Bond villain. A bad one because it's pure plot contrivance she isn't dead by films end. The only thing saving her is that she's in a world without heroes. Yes, I'm counting Batman.

2:47 IS THAT A MOTHERFUCKING JOJO REFERENCE?
isa malik muda muda muda!
ROADA ROLLA DA!!
IT'S CONFIRMED
I REPEAT
IT'S CONFIRMED
IT'S A MOTHERFUCKING JOJO REFERENCE LADIES AND GENTLEMEN
I feel like a Jojo reference could have saved this film imo.
A JoJo reference improves anything, 100%.
4:12 Not only was spraying "Ha Ha" repeatedly on the wall stupid, it was something they took from _Batman Beyond_ without understanding why it worked.

Croc himself did say "Hit 'im with a rock!" during the Trial episode, even though Batman said it in "Almost Got 'Im."
"The most threatening person in this movie is a woman in a pants suit."

I think it's a lot easier to joke about the bad aspects of a film than the good. So that's why their final verdict is much more positive than their actual commentary.
Spoiler alert: it was NOT alright...WHAT A TWIST!
12:03 "Whats the egyptian word for screwed" Diablo is clearly speaking Spanish, not Egyptian.

Nope. You know how I know this? That was pretty much all Leto was doing.
I've never understood why people compare Leto's Joker with Jim Carrey in a derogatory sense. An over-the-top performance reminds you of another over-the-top performance? Shock-horror.
Captain boomerang only throws a total of 5 boomerangs and only 1 comes back.
Honestly, my favorite line was "Normal is a setting the washing machine honey." And then she sets her washing machine to normal in her fantasy. That's the thing that made me laugh most.
Imagine if Poison Ivy came at the end instead of the Joker. Would've been so much better
not really... a twist ending doesn't make a movie good if the rest is bad/ meh

"Hit'em with a rock" wasn't even Croc, it was Batman in disguise so Croc doesn't even have that going for him.
But he did say it later during the Trial episode.

probably not.
Which it still didn’t deserve. Star Trek Beyond looked way better.
Please make more of these! This was absolutely hilarious, i love watching your brothers reaction to shitty dialogue and bad plot points
"The phone's the bad guy"
Sounds like a Five Nights at Freddy's thing. XD
This movie to me is what Moulin Rouge is to Doug
@@Mr96POP painful? A weak musical?
To be fair, there was a scene that got cut where Joker murders the "so screwed" guy that was meant to be the conclusion of that subplot. Also to be fair, nobody forced them to cut it.
I actually liked Enchantress having to do the dancing for her spells, made it seem far more witchcrafty, sorcery, black magic, pagan, etc... than the usual 'hold out arms' 'point hand' 'wiggle fingers' magic we see most of the time.
3:49 - “Ya know what this man can do?”
*Chris Rock has entered the chat*
Mary Poppins y'all
DisneyxROTG hi's cool bro
Still better than every line uttered in Suicidal Squad.
It's a good line. It was intentionally so silly it's funny and the way it's delivered it's kind of badass.
"You look like Marry Poppins Mr J"
"Is he cool"
"Yeah, he's cool puddin"
"IM Marry Poppins HAHAHAHAHA!"
NOOOOOOOOOOOO
What a difference 5 years can make. We go from “let’s have some fun- said no DC movie ever.” To wonder woman (2017), aquaman (2018), joker (2019) Shazam (2019) wonder woman 1984 (that was fun in its complete bat shit insanity), the suicide squad (2021) peacemaker the show, Batman (2022), black Adam (2022) all of which (excluding avengers infinity war, end game, and no way home) have been far far better than what marvel has been putting out in the last 5 years.

The suicide part of the title was referring to the audience
10:20 continuity error= hood is up and in the next shot hood is down
Latin character speaks spanish. Doug thinks it's Egyptian. Yup.
is tha racist? because i think it is
Is it also racist that Latin character and Egyptian character speak Spanish and ancient Egyptian to each other and apparently understand?
I got the impression that Enchantress and her brother were ancient Mayan/Aztec/Mesoamerican spirits, not Egyptian.
I agree, although I don't understand why they thought it was Egyptian. Actually I am Mexican and watching this at the theater, hearing diablo cursing like we do was the most unexpected and hilarious thing in the whole movie, the whole audience in my theater burst out with laughter and it was everyone's favorite part, they were clearly thinking of latin viewers with this line and I appreciate that. :)
The rest of the movie is SHIT though. :v
nytolstoy Ya te chingaste wey
7:14 you can blame Christopher Nolan for making Chicago all those citites.
2:22 They predict DC's Titans
Seeing notifications for these videos really brightens my day. They're really entertaining and relaxing to watch.
Last time I was this early, DC released a good movie
Magic Wizards You must be old.
So that was never
Magic Wizards wow, 2012
Magic Wizards This year! LEGO Batman...
Magic Wizards so it's your first time
Very awesome vid. I love watching huge movie buffs' reactions and opinions in real time
did Doug just make *AMOTHERFUCKINGJOJOREFERENCE!!!!???*

5:33 "Hey, one minute I was playing mahjong with me nanna, and this red streak hits me out of nowhere"
- Australian English
Jared Leto's Joker isnt bad, its just really really awful. (He growls at people.......The Joker Growls at people....)
Thats why they cut him out of the movie and even Jared Leto was pissed that they hated his Joker. it sucks
The sad part is that we all know Leto has the chops to do it (and I am not even a fan) but he got stuck with a very shitty version of the character.
The Legend27 you actually like this joker?!!
Thank! You! No one is talking about that cringe level scene. I couldn't believe it, I was like "this is brilliant?? This was worth method acting leto?" I'm lost.
12:10 Actually she just danced in one part. From that point it wasn't repeated again.
3:34 *AGENT SMITH IS BACK!*
Just understood some of what boomerang said at 5:34. At the end he mentions the flash hitting him. "I was playing 'insert some game here' with me nanna when this red streak hits me outta know where."
Did Doug think Diablo was speaking egyptian and not spanish?
yes.
"So enchantress is an evil sailormoon" - My fav. quote, how did that one not make it into the review!!!
It turned into a traditional Will Smith movie The Pursuit of Crappiness
It's nice to see what was discussed in this video incorporated in the actual review. It's interesting. :)
I found this better than the actual review.
kev diaz I found this better than the actual movie.
HellRay the actual movie was stupidly enjoyable. The review questions the squad more than the movie. And made fun of Amanda Waller.... AMANDA WALLER! She was badass lady and movie did it right! So yeah.
TheDisneyLover58
Im not talking about the review, im talking about his COMMENT.
And the movie made her a collossal fuckup. The Justice League cartoons showed how great Waller is, she was a WALL! A wall that only gods could scale but only at great risk.
That Amanda would of had all of these loons in check as well as Batman. If I hated this movie for anything, its making Amanda a joke, but thats the closest thing to a Joker we got in this movie. I'd hate it, but this movie hasnt really sparked any significant emotion out of me.
Its like loosing sleep, upset you lost the time, but not enough to do anything about it and just move on..
TheDisneyLover58 you inhaling fumes or something?
Always love these, they're hilarious! Never stop doing these, you guys say the best things at the best moments.
Also, the whole "for the fans" schtick, it's kind of annoying for people that either don't have the time, money, or aren't even close to places that sell all of the comics to get on track. And some comics are so hard to follow that you have to look up an entire guide list on what to read and which to read first! Imagine my confusion when I started reading Spider Gwen and having to look up exactly what happened in the past to undertstand what they were talking about.
To be fair, it wasn't even really a defense for this movie anyway.
The characters are either so different or their backstories matter so little that it doesn't matter if you know it or not.
FUHDAFANS
9:32
Okay, so is it just like in everyone's contract that Rob gets one fucking hilarious line per video?
I wanted to love this movie so badly. The concept, while flawed, is engaging and has so much potential.
"NOT TOUCHING YOU! I'M NOT TOUCHING YOU!"
Me watching the NC review (never having seen the film and never will): Hahaha, what a great parody, wonder what actually happened in that scene; did they punch him in the face or something? Did they give him some kind of harsh speech convincing him to fight for them?
7:54 - Not even exaggerated from the review. They really fucking went the route of obnoxious Kindergarteners, oh my god what is this movie.
I despised the soundtrack to this movie. All good songs, but so out of place, slapped in on a near constant basis and so embarrassingly desperate to copy Guardians of The Galaxy (I guess totally missing the in story justification for the songs presence in the film and how the music was integral to the arc and backstory of its central character.)
This fifteen minute video was better than the actual review/skit.
We're a bad movie pissing people off is what we do
RIP Grammar, you will be missed.

Are you a dinosaur?
Well if it ain't Barney the purplr Dinosuar!
hi Bulk
I enjoyed the full review...but I actually found this way more entertaining. You guys and your one-liner-snark is great to watch in action.
I really like the character intros for this movie, they were pretty enjoyable, but after that when we get to the "plot" it goes so bad so quickly!
There's a place in France where I do my mirror dance. There's a hole in the wall where the men can see it all, but the women don't care 'cause they're dancing in their underwear.
And their bras.
11:20
Their reaction to the sky portal was incredible.
Christ, you two are MUCH more forgiving than I was on this dumpster fire of a film.
Rob’s face at 10:43
Rob's reaction to Dead Shot first scene, that was me in the theater.
I love these first viewing videos! do more!
Jesus! I feel bad for Doug, not only is his hair line going backwards at the speed of a fighter jet but at 10:18 if you see when he turns his head he has a second bald spot racing to meet the first.
So... Diablo did not speak Egyptian or whatever, he said: "Ya te chingaste wey", wich is spanish for "You are Fucked Dude/dumbass" (wich in turn is a more accurate translation than "You're Screwed"). But I guess somebody else already pointed this out.
Bad Script, Sub-par acting, terrible handling of re-shooting... Horrible film in my opinion.
So PG-13 “You’re Fu*ked.” 😐
I may be wrong but wasn't the police guard who helped the Joker in the helicopter when it crashed? You should do more of these first viewings they're hilarious 😂
I honestly think that would have been better if they'd left about 30 more minutes of footage in the movie. More time the flesh out the team, and the Joker. Time to reveal Katana and Slipknot properly(that way it would actually be shocking when he died). Time to show what happened to the guard. Time to explore all the members of the Suicide Squad to the same degree as Harley Quinn and Deadshot. Time to make them feel more like a team.
Also, while I love reading comics, I shouldn't be required to read them in order to get what's going on. A good adaptation makes you want to read the source material. A bad adaptation requires you to read the source material.
You know what would have worked for this film, if it all took place in Arkham Asylum. There's a major riot within, during a VIP tour, and the squad is quickly formed to protect the VIP's in exchange for an early parole. Simple, to the point, and would give plenty of opportunities for cameo's, and set ups for future movies. Not everything has to end on a world ending climax.
Plus Lex Luthor would have still been in Arkham Asylum after being transferred out of Belle Reve in Batman’s favor, I would imagine that while the riot is happening, he’s just staying in his cell meditating to help his mental state from the Apokoliptian knowledge.
