Suicide Squad: The most expensive music video ever made.
The first five minutes of Melancholia.
Fuck that movie.
💯
Sucker Punch
It’s a whole album, literally. There IS a soundtrack to it and it’s better that the movie itself, it has P!ATD and TØP and it’s great tho
Why would Batman attack Deadshot while he's walking with his daughter, and not when he's committing a crime? I mean, didn't his parents get attacked when he was a child? Look how much that traumatized him. That poor girl.
Because he's a billionaire not a human being.
@@magusperde365 because he's a DC movie character, not a human being.
Walking with his daughter _in an alleyway_
At least in the novelization, he waited for Deadshot to be separated from his daughter.
The infuriating thing about Katana in this movie is that there's a very clear way to give her a purpose and a point. They make it very clear her sword steals it's victims souls, so the clear thing to do is have her make the killing blow on the Enchantress and rip the witch soul from the human lady, they could of even let the human keep the witch powers in case the wanted her back for a sequel. But instead Katana literally has no agency or reason for anything
I keep forgetting she's in this movie
"His backstory is that he has a daughter that can't act. "
I'm dead.
Will Smith was perfect for the role since he has a son that can't act.
Were you shot?
"So...tell me your deepest, darkest Secrets, People."
Harley: "I once wore Glasses!"
Croc: "I am actually a Scalie. This Transformation was the best Thing that could have happend to me."
Cpt. Boomerang: "Ah am actually not a real Aussie. Ah am one have American."
Deadshot: "I have a Daughter that can't act to save her life. Or my life."
"Are you Guys fucking with me?"
@@SteelBallRun1890 Its META
Just like Smith’s real gay son 😂
You forgot the "blue hole in the sky trope"
"If you were a musical instrument, what would you be?" "A cymbal." *jared leto laughs in the background*
And the interview:
"I have no skills, I'm not a real person, I'm an idea!" *Quentin heavenly laugh*
“Ah ah ah ah ah... ah... ah.” It’s like if someone slowed down the audio for that noise the Ring girl makes.
This film is really a Suicide Squad.. it literally killed itself
Mαяу Uηινєяѕє
yea. what really annoys me is when a shitty dc movie comes out, people always say "oh well there's more footage that would've made the movie better". no. that footage probably sucks too, because it had the same writers and director and editing.
I think what they meant to say was there was a way to make the movie good even with the directors and editors ect.
I don't get how the suicide squad on the TV show Arrow is much better than the full length movie.

"Robbed a hot topic" one of the best lines
7:44 "His backstory is that he has a daughter who can't act...." That was hilarious.
"absolutely tragic"
Rhett Gedies yup
He has a son who can't act either
How can cymbals be real if our ears aren't real
"The Suicide Squad is sent by the government to assassinate The Joker, who is now too much of a threat to be left alive. Deadshot and Captain Boomerang are brought in as long-distance assassins, Killer Croc and Katana are hand-to-hand combat specialists, El Diablo knows the crime underground, and of course Harley Quinn knows the Joker. Rick Flagg is a fish-out-of-water who is trying to maintain control over these criminals going back into their natural environment. He and June Moon also struggle with the fact that Enchantress could immediately kill The Joker, but if they let her out June doesn't know if she could control her anymore."
That took me like 10 minutes to come up with and in the right hands could have been a fantastic film. This isn't a hard movie to write for, The Joker is the perfect main antagonist for this kind of story. I'm still in utter disbelief as to how they screwed this up.
Rise Of The Kumquat 👏
much better plot
Rise Of The Kumquat Honestly that sounds better.
the worst part is this was literally the animated version. they already made this movie good once. i dont know where they went wrong.
Rise Of The Kumquat and put captain boomerang in as comic relief with his actual powers which is to be able to use anything regardless of shape size or weight into a boomerang.
The trailer was also heavily mieading, edited to make you think they were going to fight the joker.
Fighting the Joker would have made a lot more sense. That would have been much more compelling to see the SS struggle with fighting another common villain, and the fighting would have been much more realistic.
Now I'm sord of imagining them trying to be used to kill the joker (say, after he escaped the treatment harley was suppost to give), since the goverment realized they can't count on batman to do it for them, and at the end of the movie, joker helps them and makes them embrace their negative desires, making them establish a team by themselves while harley goes off with him.
Orophlacious *sort of?
Chris Warmuth The term "SS" is usually applied to a bunch of antisemitic badasses with machine guns.
The Suicide Squad is ain't the SS.
True.
You made a great point about not being able to see Affleck's Batman and Leto's Joker in the same room together. I never thought about that, but I absolutely cannot imagine a scene with them talking to each other. Just seems completely ridiculous.
Batman wouldn't even talk probably, he'd just shoot Joker point-blank in the face for killing Robin, seeing as that was established in BvS.
And I would not have a problem with that at all. In fact it's the ONLY way I want to see the two interact.
I had that thought the moment they released that Joker preview image.
Yeah, how is Batman supposed to talk to an idea
Looking at their scene together from the Snyder Cut... they have no chemistry whatsoever
i hate how they represented the joker, he's supposed to be smart and crazy but also very calm at the same time, not a nut job who just wants sex and money smh
He was made to appeal to an outdated idea of what the youth culture likes. In short: da Joker be Gangsta!
Poirot's Mustache "gangsta af, B! Joker gets bad bitches, slapping hoes and shit. Joker's a real nigga and batman is a fukin hater! Hating on joker for having more swag than him, that hating ass bitch"
-
Or we could be hopeful and remember there are multiple versions of the Joker that reflect the fears of the time period he was featured in. But.....let's be honest. They weren't doing that. 😂😂😂
Jared leto thought he was edgy. He failed miserably.
Joker was a gangster originally, in the very first comics. So, rather than following the more modern joker, where they focus on his mental issues, they went back to the roots, him being a gangster.
Now, that's hard to do. The Joker was introduced as a bloodthirsty gangster of the forties, the forties. A gangster from back then, to today, are vastly different. Gangsters today have a ton of guns, tattoos, and all the other things they gave joker. They had to. In order to return to the roots of the joker, they had to modernize him, because a gangster from the forties would be seriously weird and jarring in the modern setting of suicide squad.
You can think whatever you want about his look, but, the joker was a gangster, yet for some reason people tend to forget that.
Oh my god. It JUST hit me. Suicide Squad was a movie answer to Shadow the Hedgehog
Kudou Kun please....no.....
Where's that DAMN fourth chaos emerald
"Where's the damn FOURTH Chaos Emerald?"*
Pete Its in the computer room!
Pete sorry sir but I'm going to have to tell you that I don't appreciate bad language in my memes
I think the worst part about this movie is that there are people who will defend this thing to the death and think these characters have depth.
"IM AN IDEA!!!!!"
Wait wait wait so you're a glass of milk, excuse me chocolate milk, using a keyboard? Mind blown.
+Kaitie Montegomery
Well, no. You see, I am a person who made an account with the profile name of "Chocolate Milk" and added a profile picture that is just a glass of chocolate milk. Not too mind blwoing if I say so myself.
Chocolate Milk *Mind blowing
crazy Chicken1
yes, my mistake. was a typo
Chocolate Milk Ok
why why WHY did they lie to us and make is believe they would be FIGHTING the joker when they could have just written the story like that?? would have been much better
Alex Arias I’m pretty sure they did that to be clever or some dumb shit.
I was honestly believing this would be a movie about this cast of villains taking down the Joker. But, nope.
i only just now realized what a dumb line the surviving a meta human thing is there are probably entire jails full of people captured by meta human heroes who are all healthy as shit heroes tend to avoid killing people
Seriously, I just paused the video after he said that part to see if anyone else realized what a dumb statement that was for her to say.
Gary Smith this could only have worked in a parallel universe without Superheroes like Batman or the Flash who, by the way, are all cameos in the movie
The old comics explained the Suicide Squad better than the movie does.
For example, they set it up as a "get out of jail card" for doing a good deed, and the deeds were usually odd jobs, or assassinations and such.
That sounds like something a suicide squad would be set up for...not killing dark wizards and kryptonians and other all powerful beings. I mean, what is a bogan with a boomerang really supposed to do against an ancient all powerful witch? Movie would've been much better if they were just going after some criminal asshole.
Russia at the Movies Yea, wasn't the group that went against the Enchantress herself was the Justice League Dark?
The problem is the film needed to have a sky beam
Wasn't it also set up as a group of people to do odd jobs that were basically guarenteed to get all of the members killed? Like, that's where the name comes from. And they chose super villians specifically because if they all died during the mission, hey, no great loss, amirite?
Stephanie Wozny I mean, by common sense they would all just die midway and the supervillains would still be there, so... Why bother setting them up? Why even choose them to defeat the supervillains that they can't even defeat? The only reason they could in the movie is really because the writing is poor from the get go. Logically they should just go infiltrate a country where the US military has no jurisdiction or do recons on black sites. Like in Assault on Arkham, they're told to just infiltrate the Arkham Asylum.
This whole movie feels like a bad fan fiction, except if it was then it would get a pass because it's a bad fan fiction and not an undeserving box office hit.
That and Harley is the worst part of this movie. I really hate her in this movie, nothing likeable about her, and she isn't very attractive either.
That also won a fucking award for make up.
kevin fialington If it was a fan fiction it would at least understand the characters
More like box office shit
Like Cursed Child. Or Fifty Shades.
joker and harley in literally anything else: a complex, nuanced portrayal of an abusive relationship
joker and harley in suicide squad: He's Edgy, She's Hot
The one time I read about the Joker going to a nightclub, he literally skins a guy who robbed him, and takes the money back. Throughout the comic, you see his day-to-day life, which mostly involves murdering people who took his stuff, taunting Batman with their bodies, and plotting with other super villains. Never once did he just go to a nightclub for fun.
Let me make the worst joke of 2016:
Harley Quinn(ton)
Please kill me
Brigtello I read that joke and i try to end my life
DRINK IT! DRINK IT I SAY!
*looks around room* Where's my bleach?
(Gunshot)
What’s your address
“So mister J, if you were a musical instrument what would you be?”
“A Symbol”
That is probably the most well written joke, given the context, I have heard in a LONG time!
Fun Fact, in suicide squad, the joker began his soundcloud rapping career. His name was lil joker, hence the god-awful costume.
Now I really want to say, "I have no skills, I'm not a real person. I'm an idea." in a job interview.
as overdone as this review is right now, you added more to it than a lot of the other reviews. but i wish you'd focus more on movies no ones reviewed
That's a really interesting suggestion, since most people seem to be asking for the opposite. I'll take that into consideration -- thanks for leaving a comment!
+Quinton Reviews no problem :). I enjoyed your retro voltron reviews because I never personally liked mechs, so its something I've never come across. But do whatever helps your channel! ( ´_ゝ`)
Berserk
red ted
For several, several months we have been trying to get more Voltron episodes out but it just hasn't worked out yet.
+Quinton Reviews Even if you don't do voltron specifically, it'd be nice to see some more shows that you personally haven't seen(or something you have personally avoided) be reviewed. It makes for a cool dynamic ( ´_ゝ`)
Excuse me it's Oscar winning Suicide Squad, thank you very much.
Wasn't that for best makeup?
I can confirm that Captain Boomerang both is and isn't a racist stereotype because it's pretty accurate, everyone I know said he was the best part and the people in the cinema thought he was hilarious. (I am Australian, in case you couldn't infer)
He was the best character in the movie because he really had nothing uselessly important to do with the actual plot.
That's because aussies can take a fucking a joke unlike the yanks
Do0m I’m a yank (assuming that means American), and I can confirm we cannot take a joke.
I could write a thesis paper on the rouges or just Captain Cold. They're good villains. I'd love to see them on a Suicide Squad, with their orders conflicting with their moral code.
I actually think Gorilla Grodd is a decent villain, he's naturally powerful because... he's a Gorilla, he's highly intelligent and has telepathic powers. His motives are neat as well.
Succulent Squad
A short film where Viola Davis slowly walks around a garden centre choosing succulents for her living room...would probably still have been better than suicide squad...
Courtney BLK
“Waller, these are amazing! How did you plant them?”
“Let’s just say I put them in a hole and threw away the hole”
I think that there might have been a decent movie within the uncut footage of Suicide Squad, but the direction was so confusing and the fact that they gave it to a trailer house for editing pretty much sealed its fate as being fucking terrible
Nope. Suicide Squad was written terribly too. The point of the suicide squad was to do things superheroes wouldn't do. Not to combat superman level threats. They could've made a fantastic movie wherein the suicide squad was tasked with breaking into Arkham and assassinating the joker. Harley quinn betrays the team, the joker disables the explosive devices and releases a bunch of prisoners, effectively setting the stage for entirety of DC's universe. Every hero can now have a rogues gallery of villains to combat.
Assault on Arkham is actually worth watching if you haven't already. I wish they made a live action movie of THAT instead.
im still waiting for captain boomerang v kiteman
Hell yeah!
I think Gorilla Grodd has tremendous potential and he in and of himself has themes that I think can be great about humanity, revenge and wrath, although he gets docked points for not having a particularly interesting dynamic with any hero.
For some reason I see him fitting more with Batman or Wonderwoman to have rather than the Flash.
The zoom in on Will Smith saying: "Lady! You. Are. Evil!" was perfectly hilarious
The most joy this movie has brought is all the people who collectively agree how shit it is....that and Katana's midriff, hot damn.
YourPrivateNightmare Make a mini-series or some shit about Katana, cause goddamn. Interesting character with a neat backstory, AND she’s attractive as fuck? Sign me up.
@@freyastuchbery7130 IT'S NO NUT NOVEMBER!
this is such a great UA-cam channel, deserves way more subs and views imo
If y'all wanna see a good suicide squad type of thingie, watch assault on Arkham
YES. That movie is so much better than this. Walker even gets what she deserves in the end.
At least some actors tried.
Jai Courtney was fun to watch since his character had nothing to do with the actual plot.
Some actors tried a little *too* much.
Kyle *cough* Jared Leto *cough* everyone who tried to be "badass" *cough* I remember my ex-girlfriend said Jared Leto was doing a Caitlyn Jenner impression haha
"I'm not askin', brah. I live underground, y'all are just tourists."
Captain Boomerang is at his best when he's a joke. I hear he's often aware he's not a big fish and actually acts like that, going with con's and the like rather than fighting heroes straight up...and most villains don't work with him because of that. I would LOVE that Captain Boomerang to get some screen time.
The comics were better :^)
Also I agree with the points you made on Joker, I hate this interpretation
Which comics?
Honestly, I think this Joker would have worked with a younger Batman. Still would have prefered a different Joker but it would have been... ok. But yeah, you need a older Joker for a older Batman and not a gangster wannabe.
AverageGuy96008 Jared Leto's Joker is by FAR the worst Joker ever made. I wouldn't even call him The Joker, I would call him a ridiculous looking, hot topic, tattooed pimp who happens to be a Joker-fanboy. He wasn't frightening or funny, he was just silly. I mean "Hunka! Hunka!" Really!? It was so cringe-worthy to watch! Even Cesar Romero, an actor who refused to shave his mustache, played a better Joker than Jared Leto did.
In the movie's defense the joker is more in line with a very old incarnation of the joker who was just a mob boss with a clown theme.
and they butch that also
Alexander Colefield True, But no one really remembers that Joker. Nor do they care about that Joker. We all care for the popular Joker. They made him completely diffrent, and they just made him into a mobster so it could be somewhat accurate
Alexander Colefield Yes but that Joker was a long time ago. Most fans were born in the 80s and 90s so not many people really know that version.
Jared Leto Joker doesnt really feel like a mob boss though, he just feels like an unlikable edgelord
I dare DC or Marvel to make a superhero movie where nothing blows up
dankdari Logan?
Offensive Films shit blows up in it too
So I know that this is a really old comment so you probably don't give a fuck but Logan is not a Marvel movie. It belongs to Fox just like all the X-men movies.
Hanabi199823 Logan IS a Marvel movie, just because it's not part of the MCU does not mean it's not Marvel.
"I dare DC or Marvel to make a superhero movie that isn't a superhero movie"
Brilliant.
Assault on Arkham, came first, underrated, barely known, so much better.
The only bad things about it:
Is that nobody knows about it
I was about to start defending Wonder Woman's villains. Like how her ongoing spat with Ares brings out themes about violence and war, and how her "dark version" breaks her worldview and progresses her character... and then I realized I was just thinking of Xena: Warrior Princess.
For fucks sake boomerang man was better than most of the main cast and the guy who can climb anything.
*_A N Y T H A A A A A A A A A N G_*
Hey now Quinton, don't underestimate the DC villains outside of the Batman and Superman rogues galleries. While I don't particular care for Gorilla Grodd (though portrayed pretty well and threateningly in the modern Flash TV series) or Cheetah, Eobard Thawne (the Reverse-Flash) is probably my favorite DC villain next to Lex Luthor. If we're going for well-done antiheroes like how Suicide Squad tried to do, Captain Cold and Heatwave were done amazingly on the CW shows (set up in the Flash, developed fantastically in DC's Legends of Tomorrow). I like how Smallville portrayed Lex Luthor but also his father Lionel Luthor. Black Adam is another neat non-Batman/Superman rogue who is strong, quick and magical. There's also Sinestro, Atrocitus, Larfleeze, Parallax and Krona, which are some cool Green Lantern villains. The Supergirl TV series is portraying some villains in interesting and cool ways, like Maxwell Lord, Non, Parasite, Cyborg Superman and Lillian Luthor.
I know not all the villains I've listed are 100% awesome but I'm just pointing out that Batman and Superman aren't the only ones with some neat villains. Some may seem lame, but this is why DC is still going strong for me: the movies may not be doing that well, but the TV stuff is incredible and makes me realize how interesting heroes and villains other than Batman, Superman and their respective rogues galleries are.
Eobard Thawne, man. That's a villain who is just creepy as hell. He's a man from the far future who was obsessed with the Flash and so recreates the means by which the Flash gained his powers so he can travel back in time, only to learn he's destined to become his greatest enemy, which makes him snap and go crazy and hate and want to kill the Flash. He's stalked Barry for years before he become the Flash, being responsible for almost every bad or inconvenient thing in his life. He's done things like even erasing his own brother and even parents (somehow) from history. A master of speed and time travel, he's someone I'd love to get more love and maybe a decent cinematic treatment.
a crowbar Reverse-Flash falls under enemy with the same powers thou.
a crowbar I agree thou that CW has shown that alot of the more silly super-villians can work.
william timonen Yeah I like villains that have the same powers and abilities as the hero. Zod to Superman, Reverse-Flash to Flash, the Master to the Doctor. What it means is that the hero needs to use their smarts and wit to take down a villain with their same powers, which adds to the challenge. If it was Joker vs Superman, that's kinda easy. Zod vs Superman, that's a lot harder of a fight.
a crowbar
I just meant that he said "not counting the ones with the same powers"., and you responded by saying. "Do not underestimate the ones with the same powers." I also really like the ones with the same powers, but I do understand why other people think its boring.
william timonen Ah okay. Well then there's still Lex Luthor. Captain Cold and Heatwave. Vandal Savage. Black Adam. Krona. Darkseid. Brainiac. Trigon. Dabney Donovan. Deathstroke. Black Manta.
Real talk tho I was basing my list of decent DC villains on not being Batman rogues, not not having the same powers as the hero to their villain. Lex Luthor and Eobard Thawne are just my favorites though, I think.
This has the soul and style of a Ralphthemoviemaker review. And I'm pretty sure Quinton knows it.
Your point about all super hero movies being about saving the city from being destroyed was spot on and the reason I checked out of these kind of movies a while back. They are the same plots, characters, and tropes mixed up and presented in slightly different ways every time. Super hero movies are the Taco Bell of the movie industry: The same 6 ingredients made in slightly different ways that you get tired of by the time you are 25.
I saw it in theaters with my brother and I dunno, in theaters with immersion it was a fun movie. But after watching it and letting the initial rush wear off, it was a really shitty movie
Laneybug
that's just most superhero movies.
"the joker is easily the best DC villain and now he's gonna suck forever"
Glad that one aged badly!
Going back to what you said about El Diablo, I felt like his reason not to use his powers were justified. I understand how people are afraid their abilities might harm someone so pushing them back seems realistic. Sorry, just my only gripe with what you said before that the writers tried to push that back as long as they could.
He seemed a lot more like a jaded hero than an actual villain. He really didn't like killing people but is just branded with his powers.
Thumbnail: 10/10
I don't think I've ever laughed this much at a review, good work m8
SuiSquad rewrite: the villains get introduced as they are escaping a prison, showing off every characters different skillset. They get busted, but get recruited to steal some macguffin from Mr Corporate Rich Person. They get tagged, gear up, make their mission impossible esque plan, and just go do it
This movie is in the same universe that has Batman, AND the flash sitting around listening to police scanners. Yet when this alien tentacle monster starts wrecking the city, not a single superhero even thinks about coming. They want me to believe that not a single superhero sees a giant light beam shooting into the air, with some stripper pop-locking inside of it...
Logan saved superhero movies for me, it's something different and it was done very well.
Probably the most entertaining review I've ever watched. Laughed the whole way through 10/10
Aww, I love Brave and the Bold.
loliH9 The Music Miester is the best villian
When that person mentioned that the head blowing up was a reference from the comic, it was about as much of a significant "reference" as pointing out that someone from the Walking Dead comics also got eaten by zombies.
Comic spoilers:
The person whose head was blown up from the comics was a super villain named Lime who was trying to confess to the Gotham police about the task force. Her twin sister Light had to watch her head explode. Slipknot and Lime both had terrible villain names and both died in the same way to set an example for the rest of the team, except Lime's death is the one that was used to emotionally motivate another character. All I'm saying is that I don't think it's a coincidence that the sister with the hilariously awful half of the name duo "limelight" is the one that died. That was quite literally their only purpose in existing in these stories. Lime's death is so bad, her death could be used as a reference for the Stuffed into the Fridge trope.
TL;DR Even the source of that reference was terrible.
22:11 _sighs in Hispanic_
Not to be that guy, but Diablo's "super sayan" mode looks like a nod to the Mayan god of death Kisin since the thinner feathers and skulls are more common in Mayan headdresses and depiction of said god. If the designers were going for the Kisin route, then they nailed the look minus the fire.
This being Native American makes no sense since their headdresses have wide eagle feathers and I don't think I have seen skulls in any of their traditional attires. Not every headdress belongs to Native Americans, Quinton.
Now, does this make it less racist? Unless there's some ancestral backstory for Diablo being related to the Mayan god of death, then pfffff no. It would make it even more racist so since Diablo is hispanic.
I think it was supposed to imply that el diablo is the same sort of being as enchantress and her brother.
Also it wouldn't be racist because being Spanish unless you're from europe makes you a mix of spain/portugal + native American.
Actually It looks like his design is based off of the Aztec god of Death, Mictlantecuhtli, who is often portrayed with a headdress like that.
@@wordpainter1 After looking for a bit, I would say you are right. Definitely fits that god of death more. But while looking at some pics on google, I found out that Mictlantecuhtli is actually a DC god from Constantine; I ain't shitting around lol.

I love how several of your points are the complete opposite of I Hate Everything's (especially your arguments about the characters--your least favorite is Boomerang Man, which is his most favorite/least cringey), but both of you basically agree that the movie sucks.
he was joking saying that is was his favourite. boomerang man is a fucking joke.
Inaccurate. His favorite was man who can climb anything man.
Your videos are perfect to play video games while listening to your vids in the background.
Your videos are incredibly professional and always amusing. Thank.
"It's hard to imagine a movie where the joker is the main star" we got you Quinton
one of wonder woman's villains is actually Hades
Hades shouldn’t be portrayed as a villain. Ares is the only Greco-Roman god who actually deserves a villainous role, because he’s an absolute asshole to everyone. But Hades just (literally) drew the short straw, and he’s just doing his job as lord of the underworld. I don’t get why he’s ever a villain.
@@a.morphous66 Hades is a villain because he's the closest fit to the devil.
@@thedarklordx that’s Thanatos
17:09 Oh my god you guys just made the best Joker laugh since Hamill.
Pulls out a literal folder with "Top Secret" on it. lol.

Damn, you've made a lot of good points. Viola Davis' character is supposed to be good at manipulating people, but all she does is put bombs in their heads. Yeah, super creative. That's just lazy writing and storytelling. The trailers made this movie look so great, but it didn't deliver what the trailers promised.
Great review as always, quinton
you should watch batman assault on arkam its the better suicide squad. Trust me.
Crunchyscarf Dude it is. I mean is it the greatest no. It is good though. Its plot is straight forward. It had twist and turns and the action was amazing. I love it.
jackmaxpower I'll be honest, I hated this movie, but I feel this reviewer went way off the fucking rails, saying how he hates all super hero films.
Dr Strangelove Yeah that's a bit dramatic for him. I say he should give the Dc anaimatied universe a try. Plus maybe deadpool and a couple of marvel.
Ikr it’s like I saw a bad horror movie once so now I totally hate all horror movies. The Shining, oh man fuck that shit now... 🙄
YES. that's what I've been saying about the Harley x Joker relationship this whole time!!! They are not a lovely dovey couple. It's a tragic abusive relationship, and it's amazing to watch.
10:19 Hey Amanda.
Amanda.
The Flash...
DOESN'T MURDER PEOPLE.
“Don’t they realise that eventually no-one will be surprised by an alien invasion or a city blowing up?”
You would think so. I’ve often thought that about superhero comic continuities, and yet here we are; 50, 80, 100 years later and still going strong.
You really made me want to watch the dark knight
The Chewbacca comparison killed me.
This is why I love this channel
I love the idea of Joker's actual name being Joseph Kerr
In the animated suicide squad Harley is there to get them into Arkham asylum, she knows it because she's a prisoner and she worked there. In this there is nothing
holy shit the parts where you and that other guy do joker impressions are fucking hilarious

You mean it's not named "Red One"? My whole life is a lie.
I'm here from the future to tell you that the comments about Will Smith from 8:00 on no longer apply in 2022.
To be fair, the guy getting his head blown up was a reference to a story in which his head got blown up in the first scene. It's literally his only character trait.
I remember seeing this in theaters and the "plot twist" where they rescued Viola Davis from the building blew my 17 yr old mind. Not because it was an amazing twist, but because I think it was the first time I had to shout "What?!" in a full theater.
It sounds like i am defending the movie, but I'm, not it sucks. The reason why they use "crappy" villains in suicide squad (at least in the comics anyways, I don't know what they are trying to do in the movies) is that nobody remembers them, they are one offs, don't have much of a fan base, and have peaked, so the writers can kill them off at their own leisure and have a rotating line-up, which is something which just doesn't work in a film marketed to non-comic book readers aka 95% of movie goers. It would kind of be a waste to use good villains and if nobody dies then the whole concept of suicide squad is pointless.
almost nobody died either way tho? literally only 2 characters died if i recall correctly
I wish Hawkeye was still a main character in the mcu
I miss him. He is unquestionably my second-favorite Avenger (after Cap). There’s an even 50/50 chance he survived Infinity War as well, so there’s that hope.
Aw not forever. For a while maybe, but not forever. (btw good review Quinton!)
I loved that musical instrument jokes so much.
When I saw it, I was too fixated on how there were too many goddamn characters that I didn't care about for me to even care about dissecting the piss poor plot. But it won awards.
You're wrong about the part where you said that superhero extended universes were just lazy excuses to make more of the same movie. You literally said "this isn't some big webbed out plan to make it all interconnected and logical" yet Marvel had been planning the MCU since the first Iron Man movie. They made a full timeline of movies that were released in 4 phases... DC on the other hand just went "OH SHIT MARVEL IS MAKING MONEY GUYS QUICK WE WANT MONEY TOO" and shat out a few movies. They did just use an "extended universe" as an excuse to make more movies (yet somehow people think the movies are good *cough cough Wonder Woman cough*)
Noah Stronach you're entirely right about Wonder Woman being the expectation of a great DC movie not the rule because the rule of the DCEU is absolute shit...
If you’re saying Wonder Woman is the exception, 100% agree. If you’re saying people claim it’s good when it’s not, I’m gonna have to stop you there.
BananaDude I think it’s pretty clear that I said people think it’s good when it’s really not. The whole movie just felt like a pandering desperate attempt at feminist appeal, rather than actually creating a female hero people can respect. Wonder Woman is such an empty character in the movie and has zero development as a character. Watch ralphthemoviemaker’s video on it if you need some help.
Noah Stronach I’m not saying it’s the greatest movie of all time or that it should be winning awards. Im just saying that it was a competently made film that kept me, and plenty of other people, interested throughout. While I don’t think it’s fantastic, I do think some of it’s praise was well earned, and if nothing else, the no-man’s-land scene was really well done. It at least deserves to stand on its own and not be lumped in with the rest of the DCEU.
Noah Stronach Only Wonder Woman IS actually good *COUGH COUGH COUGH*
From what i remember from the comics, the suicide squad was made so that dangerous missions which would result in casualties could be carried out by an exoendable crew, like the suicide squad who were made to go into suicide missions. Their reward for completing the mission was reduced jail time and they had bombs implanted in their skulls so if they misbehaved theyd be blown up. I dont know why the movie didnt use this explanation it wouldve made so much more sense
I'm still dead from the "cymbal" line lol, subscription well earned
Logan is the solution to all the totally valid things raised in this review.
i like suicide squad because harley gives good r34 content
Wouldnt have needed the movie for that tho :P
WaifuIsMyRiven Too bad Suicide Squad Harley Quinn is ugly
"we got flouride in our water" you do know that that line was supposed to be a joke in a movie made in 1964.
