bloc
08.05.16 | Is it even out yet? |
Gmork89
08.05.16 | I wont be seeing it, looks pretty bad. |
maxer
08.05.16 | Bloc, the release date was August 4th if I'm right. |
FullOfSounds
08.05.16 | Probably not, but you should see it if you're a fan of DC movies |
maxer
08.05.16 | DC has some great material, but their movies haven't been great as of late. |
FullOfSounds
08.05.16 | Then I wouldn't see it |
wwf
08.05.16 | It looks absolutely dreadful lmao
Can't wait to see it, watching BVS in the theaters was absolutely gold. Friends and I couldn't stop laughing
unlike BVS I might actually enjoy some of it though |
rockandmetaljunkie
08.05.16 | see it for yourself and tell us |
wwf
08.05.16 | actually maybe I'll just skip it and watch the half in the bag on it forty times instead |
BeeRyan
08.05.16 | I CRIED during BVS because it was soooo lolbad. One of the most fun movie experiences of all time because it made no goddamn sense.loved every useless second. Suicide squad just looks cringey |
wwf
08.05.16 | suicide squad and the neon demon are going have to fight it out for most tryhard cringe of the year
I loved the neon demon despite how shit it was and I'm hoping I'll love Suicide Squad too
Also I just watched Stuckmann's review of it and he absolutely nailed something that was bothering me about the trailers that I couldn't put my finger on @1:53: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZ_JC-s8mqw |
TVC15
08.05.16 | If I was able to, to an extent, unironically enjoy B v S then I honestly doubt I'll hate Suicide Squad |

08.05.16 | Kevin Smith is also writing Yoga Hosers so... |
Rowan5215
08.05.16 | it's pretty damn funny/entertaining honestly, miles ahead of bat v sup but then again what isn't. worth 10 currencies to see for sure |
theNateman
08.05.16 | @clover- True.... |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
08.05.16 | yeah it was entertaining. more enjoyable than all the marvel movies at least. |
Rowan5215
08.05.16 | boomerang ruled |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
08.05.16 | yeah he was good.
just made me want to watch an entire movie of harley and joker tbh but the characters were great and a lot of the visual elements were really cool.
it seems dc's biggest issue is editing. the entire first half of the movie seemed like an hour long trailer. they also cut lots of good stuff from the trailers. and the actual story regarding enchantress made literally no sense whatsoever. some cringe moments like every superhero movie ever. but marvels catalogue has tonnes of glaring flaws too, people just seem to ignore them more. |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
08.05.16 | which is a fascinating phenomena tbh because for instance civil war was actually one of the worst movies ever made from a critical perspective buuuuuuuut.... |
Rowan5215
08.05.16 | Enchantress was kinda a shit villain all round I fucking HATE that whispery british lord of the rings voice she had in the second half like omg what the fuck is that
Waller on the other hand was actually a great villain and it was stupid to just have her disappear for the climax but w/e
Deadshot, Joker, Boomerang and Diablo were all really good, watchable characters. Robbie's Harley kinda annoyed me but whatever. At least there were some genuinely funny jokes in there (like Boomerang standing up and leaving the second Flag smashed the iPad thing lmao) |
tempest--
08.05.16 | is King Shark in it? |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
08.05.16 | i liked enchantress til she went god mode. she was better as a creepy witch that was kind of bewilderingly sexually appealing some how. |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
08.05.16 | king shark is not in it for a single second unfortunately. not even a cameo. dont know why he is credited. |
Rowan5215
08.05.16 | yeah the original witch design was cool af then they ruined it with the stupid voice randomly looking human again twist like that could possibly be a good idea |
Keyblade
08.05.16 | if u gotta make financial decisions on whether or not to catch a movie 1 day for 10 bucks u need to get ur paper up damn |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
08.05.16 | agreed.
seems like people focus on the good and ignore the bad with marvel films and focus on the bad and ignore the good with dc films and i really wish people could just be more neutral and point out the fact that both of them are guilty of some legitimately absurdly terrible things while they both also do certain different things well. |
Mystletainn
08.05.16 | Keyblade speaking truth |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
08.05.16 | "if u gotta make financial decisions on whether or not to catch a movie 1 day for 10 bucks u need to get ur paper up damn"

08.05.16 | pots have you watched the extended edition of BvS yet? i am always interested in what you have to say about superhero films |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
08.05.16 | i have. it was much more cohesive than the theatrical and made a lot of the characters motivations more clear. i think it is a much better cut. |
Rowan5215
08.05.16 | damn gotta check that. majorly excited for a Batfleck/Joker movie though, if they could keep the cameos/extended universe references to a minimum and just have the two going at each other for two hours I would be soooooo happy |

Lord(e)Po)))ts
08.05.16 | yeah harley boners were a plenty |
Rowan5215
08.05.16 | all the trailers pretty much sum up Margot's level of hotness in the movie
good actress but man she gets no decent lines in this movie at all it's sad |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
08.05.16 | she had a few really great moments
my favourite was when she told deadshot he was her friend too. |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
08.05.16 | her great moments werent as much about her lines as her mannerisms and acting though its true, i was disappointed with her dialogue. |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
08.05.16 | in fact none of the characters had any truly amazing dialogue moments, they just made themselves good by getting the mannerisms right. |
Deathconscious
08.05.16 | Leto's Joker laugh is absolutely retarded. |
Valkoor952
08.05.16 | Pots you either have no taste in movies or you're the biggest DC fanboy on this site.
Most likely both
|
JeetJeet
08.05.16 | How'd Leto do as Joker? All the method actor bullshit he did makes me want to know if he was actually good in this. |
Rowan5215
08.05.16 | He was really good, less of an imposing supervillain figure and more just like a crazy-ass unstable gangster vibe which I really enjoyed. Like pots said the dialogue was universally pretty bad so there were no amazing lines but he made all his scenes very watchable |
Rowan5215
08.05.16 | prob third best screen Joker which is about where I expected him to land |
Evreaia
08.05.16 | Leto's joker is the most true to character performance so far. Ledger might be better, but he wasn't the Joker.
Either way, Suicide Squad was dumb, mindless fun. I actually enjoyed it somewhat, lots better than the last few movies I saw (not hard considering those where Independence Day, The Neon Demon and Warcraft).
2,5/5 |
Valkoor952
08.05.16 | Leto's joker wasn't good. He was so damn over the top it was just very ehh.
Guess Ledger remains the king. |
Rowan5215
08.05.16 | and Ledger wasn't over-the-top? lmao do you know what that even means |
Evreaia
08.05.16 | As if that's bad, the joker is fucking over the top, that's the whole point of the joker. |
JohnFire
08.05.16 | 10€? Where are you from? Costs me 20€ all included.

maxer
08.05.16 | JohnFire, I'm from The Netherlands |
Valkoor952
08.05.16 | Nah, Ledger's joker was natural it was like he WAS the Joker. Whenever you're watching Leto you know he's just acting and trying too hard but failing . Can't explain it but he's not as good as the previous ones. Sorry to burst your bubbles. |
Evreaia
08.05.16 | "Can't explain" and "Sorry to burst your bubbles."
Lol, fine reasoning. Lotsa bubbles are popping at this rate. |
Rowan5215
08.05.16 | ok thanks for explaining I will change my opinion |
Evreaia
08.05.16 | Ledger is overrated as fuck. |
Evreaia
08.05.16 | The whole Nolan trilogy is overrated as fuck tbh. |
Asdfp277
08.05.16 | u can be over the top without breaking the suspension of disbelief and keeping the atmosphere & tone of the movie tho, he's saying leto failed to do that |
Evreaia
08.05.16 | He did not, Leto was a great personification of the comic book Joker. Only thing stupid about him where his looks. |
Valkoor952
08.05.16 | I wasn't bursting your bubbles but the bubbles of the guy that wanted to watch the movie.
And yeah what asdfp said. |
rabidfish
08.05.16 | No king shark???
Literally fuck this movie. |
ckypro3
08.05.16 | killer croc is better than king shark. the movie was messy fun. |
RedRightHand
08.05.16 | Leto is NOTHING like the comic Joker, what the hell are you people on about??? He's Macaulay Culkin in Party Monster here, nothing more. |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
08.05.16 | I mean this the type of clown to take shitty Hollywood blockbuster movies super seriously and get butthurt over comic book movies like they are supposed to be some kind of high art. Comic book movies are all just novelty at best, if you think saying every new super hero movie is lame makes you a reputable source of movie knowledge you're likely the type of dude who thinks fight club is the edgiest piece of cinema of the century, true facts bitch |
Sinternet
08.05.16 | i'll watch it if Leto bursts into a rendition of This is War halfway through |

Calc
08.05.16 | "Leto's joker is the most true to character performance so far."
100% disagree, and movie was just plain. will smith's jokes are the best thing about it. and I love me some willie but that's not a good thing. |
Sinternet
08.05.16 | pretty much all superhero movies are lame anyway so who craes |
Calc
08.05.16 | I'm starting to feel that way too. ze novelty has worn off |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
08.05.16 | There are 3 distinct different jokers in the comics and Leto is a weird contemporary amalgamation of all of them.
And yeah sin is right there is a grand total of 0 superhero movies to date that are truly worth really getting worked up about |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
08.05.16 | 3 different jokers portrayals that is |
demigod!
08.05.16 | agreed that the nolan batman movies are boring and trite as hell. what happened to fun why cant a movie be fun and mature at the same time fuck nolan and his bland pseudo intellectual everything |
Valkoor952
08.05.16 | Why does it have to be like the fucking comics. So what if Ledger wasn't a 100% comic imitation. He made himself a different version of the character, which is probably better than most of the comic versions.
You see everything for you HAS to be like the comics.Nolan's trilogy was realistic and it was great nonetheless,oh but what's that ? It didn't have anything to do with the comics ? Instantly shit for pots.
Now, BVS that was a shit movie wasn't it ? Wait you liked it ? How come ?... oh wait it's exactly LIKE the comics, that means that it's good right ? Well no it fucking doesn't. "being a replica of the comics" doesn't mean shit, doesn't mean that a movie is good.
You're like those people that when a movie adaptation of a book is shit, they start whining about how : the book explains everything and is great so that's why the movie is brilliant as well. Fuck off. |

Asdfp277
08.06.16 | is it really that dark tho |
Valkoor952
08.06.16 | I hate when people use the words : "dumb fun"
No it's not dumb fun, because the plot is stupid and you can't just ignore it. More than half of the jokes are cringey as fuck, and it's just a borefest safe for a couple of scenes. American Pie is dumb fun, this is just dumb with 3 good jokes spread throughout. |
LotusFlower
08.06.16 | why cant movies just be fun? fury road was fun, taken was fun, the bourne movies are fun. and none of them are 'dumb' in any way. |
LotusFlower
08.06.16 | and usually when a movie is 'dumb fun' it has an edge of self awareness that nothing its doing is meant to be taken seriously, like Sharknado. If you're saying the level of quality and enjoyment for this film is on the same level of a parody like Sharknado, then youre watching a bad movie. |
iloveyouall
08.06.16 | but fury road was bad, taken was lame, and the bourne movies are just bleh. |

08.06.16 | bourne movies are great actually, and aren't just fun.
Kingsman I hated that movie, I don't know why.
Fury road was boring.
|
rabidfish
08.06.16 | furry road is much better, IMO. |
maxer
08.06.16 | I thought Kingsman was really good. Really fun.
Fury road wasn't amazing, but still very enjoyable.
I haven't seen the Bourne trilogy, but I'm planning on watching them.
|
JeetJeet
08.06.16 | Fury Road trumps almost all those movies IMO. Probably the best action flick to come out in a while, besides The Raid 1 & 2. |

Keyblade
08.06.16 | the recent bourne movie was fun as shit, saw it the other day |
LotusFlower
08.06.16 | nah i liked taken, it established the cliches early in the film and spent the rest of it just showing Leeson being badass for the rest of it. too many movies put the action on hold to remind people X character is a 'family man' and this film didn't.
the other two are atrocious. |
wwf
08.06.16 | 'fury road was bad' is proof that opinions can be objectively wrong |
Valkoor952
08.06.16 | Nah fury road was just boring. |

08.06.16 | Oh my God, so many of the scenes I watched of ss were so cringey, I don't think I could manage to watch the whole movie. |
TheSonomaDude
08.06.16 | No not really. It's just a huge mess and JL as Joker was fucking underwhelming as fuck. Will Smith rules tho |
ConcubinaryCode
08.06.16 | Will Smith looks really bored in this from what I've seen. He's a much better actor than he let's himself be. |
JeetJeet
08.06.16 | He does look bored and since i know fuck all about comics I just assumed that was just the way Deadshot acts. |
ReminiscentOfAWhale
08.06.16 | So bad it's entertaining to an extent, unlike BvS |

majordevlin
08.07.16 | The movie was entertaining it's worth going to see not as bad as everyone is making it out to be. it was a comic book action film, the Climax was better than most Marvel films.
Oh why does everyone think the Noland's Batman trilogy is so great was good at best. Bale's Batman sucked he should of been Manbat with that voice, the choreographed fights were awful, way too much talking it made the movies got very dull at times like shut up already, did Batman do any detective work at all? yes Ledger's Joker was a great villain, but otherwise Noland's batman was medicore. |
dbizzles
08.07.16 | How big is Will Smith's role in this. I know there are four or five characters, but how much focus is on him? |
majordevlin
08.07.16 | Will Smith had a big role, but not over dominating.
|
dbizzles
08.07.16 | Devlin, the Dark Knight was good. The first and third installments were terrible, but they made a lot of money. As far as super hero flicks go, they were amazing. Maybe that's what's fucking you up. |
dbizzles
08.07.16 | Yeah, a lot of people were expecting it to be good. Not me. But, a lot of people. I probably won't even redbox it. I've avoided BVS so far, so I think I can manage. |
majordevlin
08.07.16 | The Dark knight was good, but you take Ledger's performance out it was a mediocre movie that got really boring at times. |
ReminiscentOfAWhale
08.07.16 | @major batman has always been about the villains so I thought Bale was great because he was just good enough that we didn't focus on him too much, but rather the world around him. The trilogy is probably overrated, but I love that it was a more grounded take on Gotham (except the third one; shit got out of hand), rather than the previous films which were over-the-top stylized and campy. Dark Knight especially, just felt like noir film that just happened to take place in the batman universe |
dbizzles
08.07.16 | Thing is, you can't take his performance out. Anyone that doesn't care for the trilogy, but likes Dark Night ought to read The Long Halloween. |
Nocturnalize
08.07.16 | ya this movie was cringe a f |
majordevlin
08.07.16 | Dude, if you want a good action movie it's worth going. I'll say this in my opinion it's better than Ironman 2,3 both Thor movies, BVS, the first and third dark knight movies. |
dbizzles
08.07.16 | I believe that. Those all sucked almost as bad as every installment in the Transformers series. |
majordevlin
08.07.16 | If I want a noir film I'll watch a noir film. If I want to watch the world around Batman I'll watch Gotham. When I go see a Batman movie I want to see fing Batman doing detective work, and kicking ass more like Affleck's Batman. |
majordevlin
08.07.16 | "Thing is, you can't take his performance out."
Well they should of call the movie Joker's night out, or something not Dark knight returns. |
Valkoor952
08.07.16 | Batman Begins was very good though imo, I may even like it more than TDK. SS is in no way better than B. And Bale's batman was better than Afflecks. Why ? Because he was more grounded, more realistic. He didn't have one emotion on his face spread throughout the whole movie or whining like Afflecks. THE dumbest scenes in BVS were whenever Batman was doing something. It was so unreal because after all there's a person behind that costume, in the action scenes you could see him do these amazing stunts and quick moves as if he's superhuman. Or the first scene where he is hiding in a corner, and the police are looking for him and when they spot him he just starts walking on the goddamn wall. I mean that is stupid as fuck. Not to mention him being able to withstand the fight with Superman. That was the biggest bullshit of all. |

08.07.16 | I don't want realistic it's based off a comic book, and comic books are not supposed to be realistic. That's how he is in the comics a pure badass master detective in peak physical conditioning trained in several martial arts plus his other skills.
If I want realism I'll watch a real life crime stories like the Untouchables, or Dragnet(not that 80's remake), or something like that.

08.07.16 | The movie wasn't that good, and joker literally played no significant part in the film aside from being a crowd attraction. |

08.07.16 | "Bale's batman was better than Afflecks"
Stopped reading right there. |
miketunneyiscool123
08.07.16 | Ben Affleck did very good with Batman on the Batman V. Superman movie for what he was able to do, but the movie sucked. |
Evreaia
08.07.16 | ultimate cut saved it somewhat though. Not haute-cinema or something, but it really salvaged the theatrical cut.
But really, Battfleck is by far the best batman we've had so far. |

majordevlin
08.07.16 | Too bad Kevin Conroy is 60 now I'd just put him the the bat suit, and be done with it.
"The movie wasn't that good, and joker literally played no significant part in the film aside from being a crowd attraction."
He was a side character the movie was not supposed to focus on him. |
Valkoor952
08.07.16 | @majordevlin
He can still be a badass, while being realistic. For example Bourne.
I get that not all of the action is gonna be realistic, but don't try to convince me Bruce Wayne is supposed to crawl on walls because it's just stupid. If it's spiderman I understand, but it's fucking Batman, he isn't supposed to be some sort of a meta-human. That's why Batman himself is so appealing. He is a human, yet battles with bigger forces than himself. |
majordevlin
08.07.16 | Batman does use all sorts of Gadgets. He might have had some substance to help him stick to the walls like that remember he is Batman, and he does have a utility built. |
Evreaia
08.07.16 | > Realistic
> Batman
Choose one. |
Asdfp277
08.07.16 | realism itself is a gradient, doesn't have to be 100% scientifically accurate to be more realistic than most superhero movies |

08.07.16 | Just saw Suicide Squad and loved it. Also no I am FAR from what you would call a (hardcore) fan of comic book/superhero movies |
TVC15
08.07.16 | Only gripes I would say is how distracting the soundtrack was and Jared only having like 5 total minutes of screen time |
HinkHall
08.07.16 | The movie was decent, but not as good as I was hoping it to be. I really wish Jared had more screen time. He was the main reason why I wanted to see the movie in the first place. |
zaruyache
08.07.16 | Leto was awful tho? The guy had "Damaged" written in on his forehead ffs. He was a psycho gangster, not really the Joker. |
TVC15
08.07.16 | I just did some digging and I think almost all of Jared's scenes were scrapped due to the fact that there was some massive reworking in making the initial abusive relationship between him and Harley and making it seem more romantic and loving |
Deathconscious
08.07.16 | good ol' hollywood dumbing down a film and treating the audience like morons to make it more accessible. |
Valkoor952
08.07.16 | Basically they pussied out. |
TVC15
08.07.16 | "Basically they pussied out." [2] this
It warmed my heart seeing Jared clean shavin and lookin like he was in Requiem for a Dream in that one part towards the end of the movie tho. Dude's a handsome mofo without that humungous beard |
Asdfp277
08.07.16 | "good ol' hollywood dumbing down a film and treating the audience like morons to make it more accessible"
more like not despicting abusive relationships lest the tumblr crowd won't be allowed to get into it |
zaruyache
08.07.16 | that and a loooooot of Harely's fans don't like this version of her origin story, so best not give them even more reasons to hate it. |
Evreaia
08.08.16 | at least 22 scenes are cut out according to those who saw the early screening. Some even got changed for the worse (like the Joker throwing Harley out of the chopper because of an argument, got replaced by the chopper being shot down and the joker throwing harley out to save her).
WB are a bunch of faggots, no balls at all. |

08.08.16 | Spiderman could kick all the members of suicide squad's ass and then batman's |

08.08.16 | Assault on Arkham was great, usually the low quality animations are better than the live action. But I've to see, at least it would be fun.
I don't mind critics, I usually get along with them |

08.09.16 | My friend's 10 year-old nephew wants him to take him to this movie. Is it too adult for a 10-year old kid? |
zaruyache
08.09.16 | Not really. It's only pg-13 and I'm sure they've seen worse stuff just browsing the internet. Wouldn't say it's exactly worth the money but it's prob not too bad for a kid that age. I saw it at the local drive-in and there were a loooooot of kids there. |
dbizzles
08.09.16 | I think he's mostly concerned about graphic violence and sex stuff. |
zaruyache
08.09.16 | There's like no sex stuff besides booty shorts, and all the fighting is against non-human baddies, so there's not much blood either. |
dbizzles
08.09.16 | Cool. I will let him know. I figured it wasn't that bad, but you never know. |
Sevengill
08.09.16 | booty shorts though |
TVC15
08.09.16 | Also that one part where Harely was making out with another woman in that strip club and that intense part that follows where Joker is asking this dud if he wants to do it with her |
Valkoor952
08.09.16 | Joker may be a bit frightening to the kid if he doesn't expect him but otherwise it should be okay. |

08.09.16 | "if u gotta make financial decisions on whether or not to catch a movie 1 day for 10 bucks u need to get ur paper up damn"

Harley was hot but I guess a far cry from canon. she was fun tho. will smith was ok cuz he's will smith. the plot was dumb obvs. overall 4/10 |
JWT155
08.09.16 | The plot was an insult on intelligence and pure lazy writing. |
evilford
08.09.16 | leto was ok, mostly just annoying tho. ledger was iconic, no comparison honestly |
botb
08.09.16 | saw it yesterday. it was like... c-- range. the most perfect way i've seen to describe leto's joker is "he's like a combination of all the past jokers but in a two chainz music video kind of way" |
wwf
08.09.16 | 'leto was ok, mostly just annoying tho. ledger was iconic, no comparison honestly'
yeah definitely, google 'Joker'.
It's not fair since TDK has been out for nearly a decade but it's still clear who the masses' favorite joker so far is. |
Typhoon24
08.09.16 | two chainz music video lol |
Valkoor952
08.09.16 | Yeah, Leto's joker wasn't terrible but he was just stale and annoying. His monotonous laugh pissed me off the second time I heard it, and the whole mafia boss thug sorta thing doesn't fit well with the character. |
JWT155
08.09.16 | I thought most of the acting, including the joker was fine, the issue was the script. |
zaruyache
08.09.16 | "Joker may be a bit frightening to the kid"
I had a first grader tell me he liked playing GTA; if Leto scares your 10 year old then you're a very strict, sheltering parent in 2016. |
Valkoor952
08.09.16 | Yeah but GTA is just shooting people and driving cars. |
Snake.
08.09.16 | oh yeah jared leto's face in a copious amount of makeup is so much more obscene than people getting shot agreed |
adr
08.09.16 | yea because shooting people in video games is horrifically frightening experience |
Valkoor952
08.09.16 | @SnakeDelilah
OR maybe all the torture he does, his hideous look his rotten teeth and his stupid laugh may be a bit creppy to a fucking 10 year old. When you were 10 years old you shit your pants in the dark at night it's easy to see why a killer clown could frighten him. |
Conmaniac
08.09.16 | my friends wanna see this tonight is it worth it? i mean ill go either way but i wanna see if i should try to convince them to see something else |
Snake.
08.09.16 | "When you were 10 years old you shit your pants in the dark at night"
no because i wasn't a scared little bitch |
Valkoor952
08.09.16 | @Conmaniac
See Bourne if you can. It's not that great but it's better than this.
@Snake
Sure you weren't. |
Conmaniac
08.09.16 | yeah thats what i wanna see or Nerve cuz Nerve has an interesting concept |
Snake.
08.09.16 | who is still afraid of the dark at 10 years old i mean come on |
Conmaniac
08.09.16 | i was afraid of my basement at that age that whenever i had to shut the lights off at night id run up the stairs |
JWT155
08.09.16 | @con I think the movie plot wise is a pile of shit, that aside I was entertained and there are some decent performances |
Conmaniac
08.09.16 | okay cool thats honestly good enough for me cuz im just gonna get p high beforehand |
Typhoon24
08.09.16 | con, I think everyone did the basement run thing as a kid. I still do that.
the movie will not enhance any part of your life or provide reasonable entertainment for its runtime. it's literally just bad one liners then a whatever action plotline |
Conmaniac
08.09.16 | haha ikr it's classic Typhoon
and ok i mean i told them Borne was my first choice so we will see |
Typhoon24
08.09.16 | bourne is way better. not awesome but it's freakin' bourne |
Snake.
08.09.16 | i mean i did obviously do that but i really stopped when i was around 8 |
Conmaniac
08.09.16 | rnt u brave
ok yeah Borne seems better even if its a bit of a cash grab |
Valkoor952
08.09.16 | Con I believe you have seen the previous ones right ?
Also please spell it Bourne. |
zaruyache
08.09.16 | "Yeah but GTA is just shooting people and driving cars."
pimpin hoes and R++ rated language, oh yeah totally casual gaming for a SEVEN YEAR OLD. |
Valkoor952
08.09.16 | All that stuff doesn't compare with the feeling of fear. He won't understand when he slaps bitches in the game, but if he's sensitive enough he'll get nightmares from stuff like that (monsters, killer clowns etc.).
Had my 8 year old cousin watch The Walking dead last year with me. He couldn't sleep all night, and the walking dead isn't even fucking scary. |
zaruyache
08.10.16 | Lucky that none of the stuff in Suicide Squad is scary in the slightest, then? In the context of the film everything's all just actiony with a sense of thrill but little fear. I think the idea that you *should* be afraid of something because the characters are afraid of it, probably has something to do with the viewer sharing that fear. If it's all supa action with explosions and few incidences of characters having emotional breakdowns, it prob won't give as many nightmares. /armchair psychiatrist |
miketunneyiscool123

miketunneyiscool123
08.10.16 | shots fired? damn thats morbid |
Sevengill
08.24.16 | finally saw it and was very satisfied. they stranded Smith a little bit in an underwritten character, and Robbie's Brooklyn accent was obnoxiously inconsistent, but I think the critics got this one wrong. it's got a 26 on RT but I'd give it a 60. |
ScuroFantasma
08.24.16 | Yeah I liked it, felt very comic-book which was cool. It had its problems and I wasnt a fan of the whole CGI bullshit at the end but otherwise it was good. Some scenes were particulalry cool like when J and H fall in that vat of liquid and their paint starts coming off. Anyone else think the enchantress chick was hotter before the transformation into Carla with wings? |
JeetJeet
08.24.16 | This movie was just as cheesy and corny as every other Marvel flick. |
ScuroFantasma
08.24.16 | Except it's not marvel? |
mifzal
08.24.16 | well it's not that hard to give it a low negative review if your job is to watch every movie that comes out, critics while still people with opinions notice cliches, and bad film making more than the casual movie goer
plus why does everyone try to validate his or her opinion?, if you like a movie then just move on with that satisfaction |
zaruyache
08.24.16 | the directing and editing were garbage tho. The story was dumb, like a ton of stuff was removed from the film so that the final cut doesn't make sense at points, and other stuff was moved around (the bit about June Moone getting possessed was supposed to be the opening sequence, not 1/3 of the way into the film) for very little reason. The parts where Harley spontaneously adopts a half-assed Brooklyn accent were also fairly cringey. |
ScuroFantasma
08.24.16 | "The parts where Harley spontaneously adopts a half-assed Brooklyn accent were also fairly cringey."
Yeah that was super inconsistent, first time I think I noticed it was halfway through the bar scene? I thought I had just someone not paid attention to it but then it went away again for a while. |
Sevengill
08.24.16 | "The parts where Harley spontaneously adopts a half-assed Brooklyn accent were also fairly cringey."
it got SUPER heavy during the bar scene and I remember rolling my eyes a few times. it's whatev, movie is a dose of dumb fun and will be a welcome addition to the late-night movies with friends collection, right between Armageddon and Anaconda. |
KenboSlice
08.24.16 | Fucking garbage ass movie |
JeetJeet
08.24.16 | @Scuro I know its not a Marvel flick. I brought up Marvel because it just reminds me of every Marvel film I've ever seen. I'll admit though, I still liked it. Really liked Smith and Margot in this. |
Sevengill
08.24.16 | "Really liked Smith and Margot in this."
there were other actors? |
ScuroFantasma
08.24.16 | I liked Leto's joker more than I thought I would tbh, the laugh was pretty mediocre, but otherwise he played convincing psychopath. |
Sevengill
08.24.16 | yeah when he laughed while sitting on that dude's lap it was pretty bad. otherwise he played his small part acceptably well. |
ScuroFantasma
08.24.16 | @Jeet no worries, the 'other' part threw me |
mifzal
08.24.16 | Deadpool was the only legit comicbook movie of the year. Civil War had the best action scene. rest were garbage |
Sevengill
08.24.16 | and X-Men was decidedly meh, yeah. |
ScuroFantasma
08.24.16 | Enjoyed both tbh. Captain America was particulalry good imo. X-Men was pretty cool although more in an 'entertaining popcorn' way than CA. |
mifzal
08.24.16 | Civil War was great. |
Hurricanslash
08.24.16 | IDK, Suicide Squad was okay in my book. All I wanted was some mediocre acting and stupid fighting scenes. Got slightly above average acting and sometimes pretty cool fighting scenes, so I'm more than happy.
Couldn't care less about the comics though.
|
Valkoor952
08.24.16 | Civil War was great.
Suicide Squad wasn't. It was just edited so horribly the story was incredibly cliched and stupid. There wasn't almost anything remotely interesting for me besides Harley's ass. But when the filmmakers decide to film it up close in every goddamn scene with everyone looking at her, it's kinda impossible. |
Sevengill
08.24.16 | how does that make it impossible? seems ideal to me |
ScuroFantasma
08.24.16 | [2] |
Valkoor952
08.24.16 | That's not what I quite meant.
I'm not complaining about that part though, don't get me wrong. |
zaruyache
08.24.16 | bc objectifying ladies and misogyny are bad and we shouldn't be doing that to our main female "protagonist" even if the film is supposed to be dumb as dirt. Kinda hard to take it seriously at all when it seems like they place the camera angles specifically to give a good look at her shorts. |
tempest--
08.24.16 | seriously valkoor you are fucking scum |
Valkoor952
08.24.16 | Seriously tempest you're a fucking retard.
I'm pointing out that 90% of the scenes Harley was in, there were close ups on her ass and the other 10% was everyone else looking at her ass. They do that shit, and then when I say shit like : I like her ass, everybody jumps like "oh my god you fucking mysoginist, is that why you watch movies, is that what females are good for"
So please fuck off. |
Snake.
08.24.16 | calm down |
erizen826
08.24.16 | the movie is alright |
JeetJeet
08.24.16 | Lmaooo that escalated so quickly |
Sevengill
08.24.16 | Harley is introduced as a homewrecking sex object, so it's not like there's expectation of anything deeper. In the comics she's a tragedy behind the facade of a sex object. They dug into her past a little bit but she's not a character you can spend 10 minutes on and really appreciate. So I guess yeah, there's a legitimate gripe to be had in shoehorning her into an action movie when she's...only an action character by association. |
Mystletainn
08.24.16 | Harley has a cute butt, movie was decent |
ScuroFantasma
08.25.16 | Calm down guys I mean Harley isn't the first token hot chick. It's not 'misogyny' (lol) for Valk to point it out, nor for him to enjoy it. Like come on, she's largely there for the sex appeal, and if the total lack of powers/skills didn't already tell you that then the ridiculous close-ups and her outfit should have been stronger clues. Margot knows what character she signed up for, you know what movie you're going to see, so what's the big deal? |
ScuroFantasma
08.25.16 | Movie was filled with stong female characters anyway, Harley included (main antagonist, the woman orchestrating the whole thing, badass samurai, and the unattainable, effective, desirable - Harley). |
Sevengill
08.25.16 | Margot knows what character she signed up for, you know what movie you're going to see, so what's the big deal? [2] |
