If this movie does good WB learns nothing and Snyder gets to make more shit.
Who does that benefit exactly?
At least we'll possibly get a stand alone (hopefully) BA directed Batman?

Good thing it's nothing like that then!I'm up to page 64 and --- are people serious with those spoilers that Batman

Fucking hell, Snyder...

But considering DC and WB... they'd give it to Bobby Roberts and have LiquidSnake as test audience.
What? How can Batman Forever have more than B&R? B&R had far, far superior puns!
They do because people are on the fence regarding watching it or not. I read those spoilers and i'm now kind of convinced i don't want to watch that version of Superman...
Good thing it's nothing like that then!
The thing most people don't seem to realize is: if this movie does good numbers, that benefits the entire genre, not only WB.

You don't like his movies? That's OK. There's people that like them. Also, I wouldn't call them shit movies considering the amount of crap that goes around nowadays. At least they're fun and pretty to look at.

Yeah, it's Microsoft vs Sony discussion again. "You need to like Microsoft, because if you're not they will drop out and everything will be terrible with only one company and Nintento around." This is the free market at work. People should support what they like, not what some arm chair economists think what would benefit the industry.I do not understand this line of thinking. Do we, as moviegoers, need to support a bad movie in order to support a genre? Wouldn't the genre (whatever the genre is) benefit more from supporting good movies and sending the bad ones out to die? As in; buy more Deadpool-tickets and less BvS-tickets?
lollllll
Guys, 39%. There's still hope.

How does it benefit the genre...if its garbage than there is no negative for the studios for making garbage. The genre in movies is fine...marvel, fox and even sony have seen to it...but wb can keep pushing garbage because they have big heroes behind it.
Well we can only hope suicide squad will bomb hugely (much smaller appeal and looks much worse even) and wb will pull back on its plans.

I do not give a shit about this movie at all but im gonna post in this thread to tell you that any garbage can be fun and pretty to look at.
Yes, it can drop even lower! They haven't even added Devin F or Matt Zoller Seitz or Drew McWeeney's upcoming negative review yet
I don't think anyone - or most people - wanted this to fail. Which it won't btw. It'll make a shitload. These reviews might hurt JL tho.No, I'm not saying you need to support a bad movie. I was talking more about people who wanted this to fail from the beginning.
Of course. Wheter that's good enough for you or not, it's your call. But the word "shit" is overused this days. I don't like the movie? Shit. It's not what I was hoping for? Shit. I didn't like how it ended? Shit. There are some plot holes? Shit. There's shit, and there's shit. I guess we should make a shitscale.

so...is it badly directed? or just a bad film? if the latter, the true culprits:
Writing Credits
Chris Terrio ... (written by) and
David S. Goyer ... (written by)
What, why? I'm not really that interested in suicide squad, but if the movie turns out better then BvS and has a reasonable Box Office, than WB might see what works and what not (snyder doing most of the films so far).

As StaticJam said:
Yes, there a people who were already convinced that they were going to like it, as there were people already convinced that they would hate it. For me? I'm seeing it tonight and I think I will like it. What if I don't? Well, I've got hundreds of comic books to read, Suicide Squad, Civil War and Xmen are coming...

I mean, why should we care about who it benefits? If it's a poor movie it deserves to do poorly. Deadpool just pulled in amazing numbers, the genre doesn't need any help.
That's what I was asking when the "trust in Terrio" stuff kept being repeated when it was announced he was working on the script.Even though I'll be there day one no matter what, I don't know why people had such faith in Terrio. Yeah he won an Oscar but he doesn't have a large enough body of work imo.
Also after that recent interview it sounds like he doesn't want to write JL part 2, and instead give that to someone else and move on.
Sony isn't reaping anything anymore unless they decide to go "fuck it" and do that Venom movie.
Suicide Squad has too many big names to bomb.

I can't see it getting worse reviews....Right? I mean Right!!!
Anyone hoping that this bombs hard so that Snyder is taken off the future movies? Or even a complete reboot?
At least I hope JL is given another director/writer because I actually really care about that franchise. JL doesn't need to be dark and broody.Anyone hoping that this bombs hard so that Snyder is taken off the future movies? Or even a complete reboot?

Honestly it wouldn't surprise me if Suicide Squad turns out to be a better film, but I wouldn't be shocked if it falls in the same closet.
Oh totally agree. WB has to be freaking out, not sure what they expected with Snyder tho.It'll make a shitload because it's a new Batman movie, though.
Seeing as franchises / universes get more stale and more convoluted, and usually "worse" throughout their lifespan, looking at the trajectory of the DCEU (DCCU? DCMU?) doesn't make me too hopeful.
I always knew from the get go that movie was going to be garbage. I never liked the trailer and no one I know, people who represent the general population, are just not interested in the movie.
