David Ayer finally comments on the Damaged tattoo, who killed Robin, and more.
>In a blink and you'll miss it moment from the beginning of Suicide Squad, the first clue to who killed Robin in the DC Extended Universe was revealed. In this article, spoilers for Suicide Squad such as that moment are fair game.
>During Harley Quinn's introductory sequence, "Accomplice to the murder of Robin" flashed across the screen. Now, the film's director has gone on record to reveal the true murderer of Robin and the subsequent moments which cost him his teeth.
>This is sort of my personal thing and maybe less about a larger connection," David Ayer prefaces. "But Joker killed Robin and Batman basically smashes his teeth out and locks him up in Arkham Asylum. It’s in the asylum where Joker would have done the ‘damaged’ tattoo as a message to Batman saying, 'You’ve damaged me. I was so beautiful before and now you’ve destroyed my face.' That’s where the grill comes from."
>You’ve damaged me. I was so beautiful before and now you’ve destroyed my face
really?, what a cuck faggot joker
Sebastian Nguyen
they fucked up their fucking story >that "joker" already has the tattoos when he met Harley >says Harley was a complice in Jason Todd's murder
Evan Kelly
>'You’ve damaged me. I was so beautiful before and now you’ve destroyed my face.'
Brandon Richardson
I fucking hate David Ayer
Michael Perry
So the Joker is literally Angelface.
Angel Butler
>Joker got his tattoos and grill after killing Robin >Harley was an accomplice to Robin's murder >Joker already had his grill and tattoos before meeting Harley
Sure thing, David.
Christopher King
Really? ?? Thats what hes going with? ? Jesus fuck
Levi Williams
LIAR LIAR PANTS ON FIRE
Carter Price
Ayer is a hack confirmed.
Luis Johnson
This universe is a mess. It's a mess, folks. We need to wipe it out so they can start over.
Juan Cruz
That is the stupidest backstory I ever heard.
Destory the DCEU already. Its a fucking mess
Dominic Torres
JUST FUCKING DESTOY MY UNIVERSE UP
Jose Reyes
>It’s in the asylum where Joker would have done the ‘damaged’ tattoo as a message to Batman saying
Arkham Asylum doesn't have a great track history, but they wouldn't keep fucking tattoo guns in there or let fucking inmates do it to themselves or each other.
Jeremiah Morgan
is like potery
Xavier Roberts
how the fuck do you get such a fine tattoo in a secure asylam for the criminally insane?
even in an ordinary low security prison the tattoos do not get that narrow and are large and clunky and blotchy since they are using improvised equipment and dont have access to the automatic needles, its obviously something he got in a tattoo parlor, what a retcon hack
Jacob Barnes
>implying he doesn't mean that robin was killed by joker like anakin was killed by vader
Evan Ross
>Kills Robin
>Batman knocks out teeth
>Sends him to Arkham where he meets Harley
>Harley is accomplice to Robin's murder
Even the offscreen backstories are poorly edited in the DCEU kek.
Landon Richardson
Still happens in real max prisons anyway.
Grayson Lewis
Different people probably. The Joker and Harley kill Robin would be from the DCU Bible (what they use to keep consistency between writers, you can do anything as long as it doesn't contradict the Bible) the tatoo would be from the design team, and the shitty comment was just from the hired hack director that he made up on the spot.
Ian Young
>tattoo guns Triggering as fuck
Jackson Miller
>it's another David Ayer genius idea
Jacob Watson
He could have been sent more than once.
Ayden Perez
Except he had the grills from the revenge punch before he met Harley and converted her.
APOLOGIZE
Oliver Kelly
Is it too late to disown SS as DCU, like say, "Oh shit, SS was a one off and in NO WAY RELATED TO DCU."
Logan Scott
So basically they fucked up, like user said...
Adrian Bailey
>cool scenes happen offscreen
Ryan Nguyen
Yeah I thought you'd say that. It was just a suggestion. >APOLOGIZE Soz pal
Zachary Brooks
Its not like his comment about the tattoo is actually in the movie.
Henry Gomez
>has never heard of prison tattoos
hey kiddo
Benjamin Rivera
>forcing the audience to fill in the blanks with their imagination, creating images and narratives far more personal and affecting than a screenwriter or visual artist could possibly deliver
DCEU really makes you (patricians) think.
Ethan Jackson
This looked sexual from the thumbnail.
Caleb Ward
...
Owen Howard
everyone knew that when the first picture of the joker came out
Justin Perez
Asylums and supermax prisons are not the same thing, come on now, don't be daft
Thomas White
yeah ...his acting is ridiculous and cringeworthy buy hey LOOK AT THOSE ABS!
Ryder Moore
>....How is the Joker alive?
>Like, seriously, how is the Joker alive?
>I get how the Joker is alive in the comics because Batman swears off killing, he won't kill ANY of his rogues no matter what they do
>I watched Batman in BvS shoot goons with guns, lasso an exploding car and drop it onto goons, launch people through windows, and straight up no inuendo murder people
>HOW THE FUCK IS THE JOKER ALIVE BVS BATMAN WOULD HAVE MURDERED THE FUCK OUT OF THE JOKER FOR KILLING ROBIN
Hunter Turner
DELET THIS
Cameron Myers
Maybe the police turned up. Hell maybe the police found him.
Discounting the directors bullshit comment, maybe the car scene was when Batman finally caught up to him and let him 'drown'.
Or maybe he only kills when they are actively trying to kill him, and if he incapacitates them first he just catches and maybe brands them.
Easton Edwards
>police turned up
You're saying this like the Batman in this universe hasn't exist for more than a decade and Joker probably has for nearly as long, considering how everyone knows him.
They would've clashed dozens, if not hundreds of times.
Not to mention Deadshot and Croc are also regular Batman villains, and both of them are literal serial killers as well. Neither of them are dead.
Mason Bailey
So many watches.
Carson Martin
DC and WB just randomly letting directors creating their own shitty fan fic in their shared universe.
top kek
Daniel Taylor
>its another shill thread
John Allen
Can we get nudes of margot robbie?
Dominic Jackson
>Harley is an accomplice in Jason's murder >Batman punches Jokers teeth out because he killed Jason >Joker already has the fake teeth the first time he meets Harley
Something doesn't add up
Parker Robinson
So when is david ayer making a mortal kombat movie with margot robbie as sonya blade wearing booty shorts?
Jacob Clark
Its simple.
This DCEU is fucking badly written nonsense where no fucker gives a shit about anything but catching up to marvel.
Wait why would the sign not have her real name on instead of her Super villain name?
Adam Morris
Nobody who watches this movie knows that
Bentley Thompson
I'LL ROLL THE FUCKIN DICE
Henry Nelson
>Skips over what would have been a potential more interesting movie than BvS and Suicide Squad combined
DC doesn't know what the fuck they're doing.
Aiden Diaz
Are you retarded
Charles Hall
They could've literally just made a live action version of Assault on Arkham, and it would've been great.
They could've been fucking lazy and it would've been a better movie.
Jesus Christ.
Xavier Brooks
Can we just have Flashpoint reboot this shitty DCEU already?
Anthony Sullivan
they turned joker into vega lmao
Christian Jackson
Gee, maybe because it's just a fucking comic book movie and the Joker is a popular villain, you fucking mongaloid
Cameron Ward
GIT ER DONE
AM I TO SOON AM I TO SOON????
Parker Carter
this is what happens when you let goyim do capekino
Sebastian Reyes
Don't bother, the Joker being alive doesn't even make sense in the comics.
DC has a night-omnipotent guy who is literally the embodiment of Gods Wrath, whose entire existence is based around punishing sinners, yet he never goes after the Joker or any other high-profile villain
Jaxson Hill
I did, and I wondered the same thing
Adrian Reyes
Yep.
Josiah Baker
She is probably the ugliest """""white""""" woman in the world.
Jonathan Miller
>Jeffrey Dean Morgan as a broken Thomas Wayne Batman oh god im cumming
Landon Stewart
He just has no fucking idea.
Like 'he's letting us use our IMAGINATION' isn't even a joke-excuse. He literally just has no fucking clue how to explain it. The fact that he has to explain it at all is evidence of the complete shitshow it is, since so many people have to ask 'Why?' and so many fanboys have to blubber out excuse after excuse every time more of why this movie is just below-average shows up.
Like fuck, do you not WANT DC to realise they're doing a bad job establishing a cinematic universe?
Adam Wilson
>Because plot and profit says so Yeah, no fucking duh.
Thomas Smith
When she's not in her persona she's quite cute.
Dylan James
the creators have their facts and timelines more messed up than people like me who havent seen the movie
i'm sure people will love the relationship between these characters that havent been established for them - or even to the creators and actors themselves
this is a fucking mess. It's like starting the marvel universe from the 2nd act of civil war
Jonathan Reed
rly makes u think
Jackson Scott
>Superman origin + vs Lex
>Batman Origin vs whatever
>Superman Vs. Zod (man of steel but not shit)
>Batman Vs Joker, Death Of Robin
>Batman Vs. Superman (but not shit)
>Wonder Woman, Suicide Squad - Intro Darkseid
>Justice League
How hard is it DC?
Christian Allen
You would think they would treat "A Death in the Family" with a bit more respect and not just use it as a bit of trivia
Jayden Sullivan
I'm assuming the Harley being an accomplice to the Robin murder was added in a later cut. They probably wanted to get that name drop in there.
Ryan Gray

Chase Davis
>It’s in the asylum where Joker would have done the ‘damaged’ tattoo as a message to Batman saying, 'You’ve damaged me. I was so beautiful before and now you’ve destroyed my face.' That’s where the grill comes from."
Tell me with a straight face that mindbroken Jason Todd being Joker after Batman killed the original isn't better than this. "oh fuck you killed my partner, well fuck your teeth."
Joseph Ward
Then it would just be a fake Joker and I'd expect them at some point to bring back the "real" one.
James Ross
No, I'm not saying that. But they turned up in BvS as well and he fucked off. And even if he didn't they'd tell him to calm down.
Joseph Johnson
Green text is Whittier, but Jason Todd being Joker again is also shit. Just deal with it.
Wyatt King
No why would I be?
Isaiah Nelson
Jason as Red Hood > Jason as Joker
Christopher Ortiz
>"omg batman killed the joker" >sits on clown chair >now i am Yoda what
Landon Parker
Are you waiting for the "real" Lex too? I get it though, but I still like the idea of a Joker with Batman skills, that makes him even more lethal and unpredictable.
When was he the Joker before, I know he was the Red Hood but that ain't the same.
See: Batman Beyond
Andrew Scott
This
Gabriel Reyes
You mention Batman Beyond but don't remember when Todd was Joker? Batman Beyond, Return of the Joker. Todd was literally brain raped to be first a Joker Junior and later a host body for the memory engrams of the original Joker.
Ian Moore
That was Tim Drake in Batman Beyond.
Evan Jenkins
No, because they didn't set up Lex as being the son of a buff bald dude, and he also had Mercy Graves and that shit and a hatred of Superman. It's not like Superman, in the past, had killed Jesse Eisenberg's Lex's dad, or something.
If you reveal that this Joker isn't the first Joker, 1) you're gonna have idiots thinking they mean Heath Ledger, and 2) you're gonna have most people thinking, oh, he's just a copycat. Lame.
Plus this Joker has Harley, which would cheapen the already cheapened relationship if she's not even obsessed with the original Joker, but Robin as the Joker.
Evan Edwards
>You’ve damaged me. I was so beautiful before and now you’ve destroyed my face
>Joker is still handsome af Care to explain?
Thomas Phillips
Shitters, so it was. Still, same diff. A robin that gets brain raped to be a joker. Its been done. And even if that IS the plan of the DCEU with Joker, it isn't, but even if it was, they would just fuck it up like DC have so far fucked up everything else. Yes, including Batman.
Jaxson Parker
Is it Flashpoint time yet?
Samuel Campbell
>Plus this Joker has Harley, which would cheapen the already cheapened relationship if she's not even obsessed with the original Joker, but Robin as the Joker.
I suppose but if JasonJoker made Harley as a way to continue the whole cycle of how he was mindfucked AND making his own partner, just like "dear ol' Batdad".
But I guess it's moot now, time for DC to pull out of this dive with some good writers.
Whack don't Crack.
James Butler
The Joker is the Joker but Harley Quinn is Jason Todd. Joker kidnapped, brainwashed and feminized him and that's why Batman can't kill Harley and also why Harley has such a masculine fridge shape.
Wyatt Cook
The more you post this, the scarier it gets how much I am board with it
Logan Walker
>and also why Harley has such a masculine fridge shape.
Brayden Thomas
I wonder if you've defended BvS as "patrician" and above Marvel movies Not making any assumptions. Just wondering
Tyler Smith
And this wasn't in the movie because why? Oh yeah we needed to fit Katana in for no reason.
Ryder Ortiz
I wish. I'd love to see a Flashpoint Batman with Jeffrey Dean Morgan playing Batdad.
