DC Suicide Squad

Watched Avengers Civil War come on!! How is this better than the DC stuff? Look it was fun seeing Spidy & Antman but the movie was almost teen pop.

So far Antman & Deadpool are my favourite Marvel movies

It's better in the sense it appeals to a broader audience they are more familiar with the characters. I prefer the more mature grown up darker feel of the dc flicks though.
 
I would watch a full length movie of HQ (with Margo in it)
She made the movie for me the others were just fillers.
You sit and just wait for the next psycho scene from her
 
Which goes to show that supehero/comic book movies are here to stay.
Pretty sure there'll some kissing and making up after the money comes in, after which we'll get details of the inevitable sequel.
 
I'm eating crow cause I predicted way back that this would be first of the current superhero films to flop at the box office. Turned out that honor went to Fant4stic.
 
First 30min a bit of a mess. Felt very forced. Comes together nicely though in the second act when they start to flesh out the characters with some back story.

Better than expected. Also expect the extended edition to be even better.
 
As of today Suicide Squad has passed $700m so now its in the same field as Guardians of the Galaxy and Deadpool. Now I wonder will David Ayer return to direct the sequel. Will Leto reprise the Joker. Will WB stop chopping their movies hours before release
 
There's rumors of Deathstroke being the villain in the new Batman film. So if Batman isn't so kill-crazy anymore, he can be recruited to join the Suicide Squad.
 
DC Just Beat Marvel At The Box Office, Get The Details

DC Just Beat Marvel At The Box Office, Get The Details...

Marvel and DC fans have had an intense rivalry for a long time, and it's only picked up steam now that DC has a shared movie universe to compete with Marvel's. This particular rivalry typically reaches equal levels of silly and extreme, and while we all can agree that both companies have their merits, Suicide Squad has reached a personal milestone by surpassing one of Marvel's best films in the process. Suicide Squad has officially overtaken Captain America: The Winter Soldier at the box office.

Box Office Mojo has the official numbers and Suicide Squad has managed to rake in a global box office total of $718 million. This puts it ahead of Captain America: The Winter Soldier's total of $714 million. Suicide Squad premiered to a slew of negative reviews that many felt would weigh it down in a similar way to its predecessor, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. While it did suffer a big drop in its second week, Suicide Squad has proven to be the August champion, winning the number one spot three weekends in a row.

Though this is a pretty good achievement, Suicide Squad had already surpassed the Marvel sequel in the domestic box office. By its third week in theaters, the supervillain film had already beaten the total domestic gross of Winter Soldier.
