Suicide Squad

So why didn't Superman go and stop him?

Was there ever any reason other than they needed him not to in order for the movie to happen? You would think the world ending witch would get some attention from a hero?

Superman was dead at this point

This was after Superman died

Superman died? In which movie? I've only seen MoS and BvS

he died in BvS
Dommsday crucified him

Didn't blue leotard Jesus wake up on his box in the credits? I'm still new to reading / watching comic related things

Oh, weird. I remember him fighting Doomsday and they all beat him, but I didn't remember Superman died till you mentioned it.

How does it feel to be the lowest common denominator?

Don't feel bad, user. The movie was just that forgettable. Also ignore this condescending faggot

That's perfectly understandable. Most of BvS is completely forgettable, the memorable parts are memorable for all the wrong reasons.

Because they were selling it as a Batman spinoff and not a Superman one

>pretending you don't remember Superman's death to ever imply BvS was as cookie cutter and forgettable as the dancing baby tree boogaloo franchise
Epic. Simply epic, OP

>replying in shitpost threads

Fuck, Sup Forums , you're dumb.

he had already died at this point

Someone's mad.

>cookie cutter
No
>forgettable
Absofuckinglutely

Actually, Navy Seals are real heroes of story. Without fancy superpowers they gave their lives and won. That bomb had 1 second timer, so that G.I. sacrificed himself without any hesitation.

I remember Martha,bat of murder, and peach tea. Are all of these pivotal plot points?

Clint Eastwood's son should have been a real DC character dammit

You FORGOT the JOLLY RANCHER SCENE

No, you are not, you just want to shitpost

I know I have to leave and never come back but I at least wanted to say Sorry before I did. Im sorry

This world's Superman only cares about saving Lois. Maybe if Waller had kidnapped her and dropped her with the Squad, Superman would have come back from the dead and stopped Enchantress and her brother.

He has saved the world twice already and spends his time lifting tectonic plates, fuck off manchild

>Didn't blue leotard Jesus wake up on his box in the credits?

that was people from Apocalypse stealing his body

That is dumb.

Why the people of Apocalyps would even need him?

What the fuck am I looking at?

DC's Electro

Because instead we needed a powerful villain the main characters could hatch an entirely stupid plan on to defeat while they watched the best of them die.

Seriously Diablo was fucking that guy up and the chick with the magic sword and super human crocodile couldn't help him?

>yfw a couple of Seal teams could have done what the SKWAD did, and more effectively

Keep Flagg and maybe attach DeadSmith as a marksman, but that's it. Incubus went out like a bitch to a simple demolition charge and Enchantress got distracted by some cunt with a night school's degree in psychology before getting shanked.

Using them as a means to remove culpability of the government's actions falls flat on its face when they're in the company of soldiers working for the fucking government.

Nah it was just energy in the body, they will steal his body later

>You're the answer to are we alone in the universe...Except for the interdimensional aliens littering Earth's history, the Amazons, Atlanteans, some other stuff the government knows about probably. So, some people might be surprised but not as world changing as could otherwise be impressed on you.

>patting someone on the back for not remembering the ending to a movie and posting a pointless thread that they could have avoided if they had

Wow, we're really rewarding stupidity on this board now. What a time to be alive.

Because Superman wasn't in that movie.

>Why the people of Apocalyps would even need him?

Desaad does all kind of fucked experiments and he knows the value of a kryptonian, it happened in the comics ( Batman/Superman) and in the first new 52 JL run, Desaad taking control over Superman one way or another

Superman is the first to appear, bringing all the other stuff into sight.

Just like the comics!

I'm really dreading the DCU version of the New Gods. Steppenwolf already looks bad.
Darksied himself may integrate well into the style, but not goofy shot like Granny Goodness.

>superman being able to do anything vs a 100% magic evil dude

unless the dceu supes is different, he would have died again

Fucking mental gymnastics, Jesus Christ

This is probably the worst movie ive seen in the past ten years. Like wow if this wasnt not only shit but garbage too, opting out to ruin characters like harley and pandering to the le sexy joker crowd. Lets not even get into the abhorrent editing, story and writing. This is practically unwatchable

Sure, Margot robbie is fucking hot and jared leto is a good actor but that doesnt suddenly turn this pitch black soulless turd into a masterpiece. Enchantress is almost as shit as Incubus as villains, and why the fuck was it even necessary to use le criminal skwad to take care of something like a fucking supervillain threat? Yeah lets send in the whore whose katana claims the souls of its victims

Its almost fucking hilarious that this garbage managed to rake in millions by getting normies hyped up into the "geek" train. I wish I could shotgun every whore dressing up as harley on halloween

It's like if they adapted Brian Michael Bendis' run on the Guardians of the Galaxy for the movie, with Iron Man front and center.

I realized nobody but Katana and maybe enchantress could even scratch superman

Katana's sword and wondy's can cut kryptonians

It's not like there was a big meaning he learned before his death nor was there even a reason for Supes to 1v1 him under Kryptonite. There just wasn't anything to hold onto, its easily forgettable.

This movie was so fucking bad that I couldn't watch it more than once and I love capeshit.

Just so many of the choices were just baffling. Why would you even go for a generic 'save the world from the evil doomsday villain' plot for a fucking Suicide Squad movie in the first place?

>This is probably the worst movie ive seen in the past ten years.
I was literally, the literal kind, amazed at how bad this film was. It wasn't even coherent because of the all the re-shoots and re-cuts. It had absolutely nothing good about it and only survived through brand recognition...it has earned our resentment.

>It had absolutely nothing good about it
I actually disagree. Costume design was genuinely great but I'm not sure if it deserved an Oscar for it.

>Jared Leto
>good actor

MOM'S GONNA FREAK

Where was Flash? It would have taken him a couple seconds to run around the earth and punch out the evil demon man.
Where was Batman? He could've easily come up with a bullshit plan to stop the evil demon man. And don't say that he stays in Gotham. If he bothered to take on Superman, he would be assed enough to take on the evil demon man.
Where was Wonder Woman? If this is after BvS, she' supposed to be back in Action.
That's what you get for throwing in all characters at once without setting them up first.

Everyone's shitting on OP for saying Superman, but he makes a good enough point while using the wrong hero, this user is right, you can just replace with the other shit they established

U sayen we sum kinda susa skwa?

They needed demonic sword to cut her, but in general yeah. It all was possible to finish by a very big laser guided bomb. Waller was a fucking villain.

>Where was Batman?
He doesn't care, he cares about Gotham only. Remember - Sups flew to Gotham to get his ass kicked, not other way around.

BTW, would Enchantress be able to stop Zod or Doomsday by her voodoo?

see, that's the problem with copying the marvel formula in reverse.
We have no idea how any of the heroes work in this universe.
Are they just sitting at home?
Do they all do hero stuff?
Is flash already running into the past?

The thing about Marvel's movies is that they by and large don't really have the same sorts of issues, due to smarter writing. Sure, people complained about "Where were the Avengers?" with Ant-Man but that was a much smaller threat and most of the movie had the heroes working in secret. It wasn't even remotely anything like Suicide Squad, where the Flash, WW, whoever, really ought to have appeared.

>There are people defending this movie for trying to be 'different'
It's like congratulating a guy shitting his pants instead of using the toilet because at least he tried (used loosely) something different.

wasnt he Rick Flagg? He is a real character

Flagg was the other guy who lived

>Normal cloths, cept maybe Harley with the slutty Halloween costume for lazy teens look and Will "I'll wear the mask like once or twice" Smith

Why was Captain Boomerang even in the squad, Waller's entire justification for him amounted to "the Flash didn't kill his ass so he's good".

it was so he could be the one that did his whole throw shtick at the end with the c4... oh wait

>Why was Captain Boomerang even in the squad

His inclusion is just as questionable as the other just as useless members, but come on, no one else came first?

>Slipknot

Dude with grappling gun, no notable combat ability beyond strangling people.

>Harley Quinn

Bitch with baseball bat and a revolver, far less utility in combat than her SEAL escorts.

>Killer Croc

Retard strength guy that kind of swims well and has a bad skin condition.

>Katana

Has a soulstealing sword, too bad it's wielded by a chick who is only really good at using swords.

Deadshot has unnaturally good aim, so he at least functions as the team's marksman and El Diablo has that whole flame god thing even if he pussies out for the most part. I barely even factor Enchantress into the equation since she's such a liability that she may as well not even be a part of the team.

There's a short list of deniable, disposable criminals on hand that have any amount of experience facing/surviving powered opponents. Captain Boomerang somehow keeps topping the list.

>So why didn't Superman go and stop him?

I this nigger for real?

Captain Boomerang is supposed to be a Flash level threat and a grade A marksmen with an usual fighting style that the enemy might have a hard time dealing with, However his presence in the film is mishandled and arguably pointless to the entire plot. There is little reason for him or Katana to be there

>Superman is the first
>Wonder Woman was killing Nazi's for the government
How?

Shitty scripts mostly

>What if Superman attacks?
>Why don't we get that guy who kicked his ass. Batman?
>Fuck you, he's busy.
>Well what about those Amazons that helped us in WW2 and did more damage to the mutant retard than Superman?
>Fuck off, we're picking insane criminals that only have a history of fucking over the authority.

Kind of hard to transcribe characters into live-action who isn't a meta as a Flash-level threat without taking some outrageous liberties with the GA's suspension of disbelief.

If Batman can do it, Captain Batarang can too.

Boomer has been a meta in some incarnations.

Never forget.

...

>We don't live in the timeline where Suicide Squad went with this interpretation of Captain Boomerang and the movie's climax is a 1v1 magic duel with Digger saving the world

They didn't use the suicide squad to take care of "something like a fucking supervillain threat", they used them to traverse a a hugely dangerous city to locate and save Waller, which went awry and they needed to attempt to stop the threat in order to complete their mission for the reward of not being killed

>instead of fighting an actual villain,w e get the Suicide Squad teaming up to stop one of their own members and saving their own boss

The story was way too insular, it felt like I was watching an office squabble instead of a superhero commando film.

There's a reason the movie has the Joker in it despite him having literally no worthwhile function, without him there's no outside force in the plot. It feels like the entire movie could take place in one room.

Don't get me wrong, I wasn't trying to say that most of the rest of the squad was any less useless, but Captain Boomerang stood out to me because she was supposed to be assembling a team to handle metahuman threats and her reasoning was that the Flash apprehended him instead of murdering him.

Harley, Deadshot, Katana, Killer Croc, Slipknot, and the Enchantress all looked great. Everyone else's costumes were fine. They didn't need to be overly elaborate.

Katana in particular probably has the best look she's ever had.

Granted, the movie was still shit, but still.

No doubt, but I forget the bullshit that qualified Harley and Killer Croc aside from "got ass kicked by Batman a few times".

Shit, there'd be a line around Arkham if that was the qualifier.

I honestly completely forgot the Enchantress's brother was in this movie at all.
