Gawt dayum there are about of beautiful people in this dark and edgy movie lol

That joker rumor...iis there any legs to that? People just guessing or has skmething been a decent hint?

Really curious how mobbed up this joker is gonna be considering the car and the suit and the henchmen...
It's not a rumor. It was just Max Landis sharing a thought.

Is that stunt feller or batfleck?
 
Leto being a former Robin doesn't make sense. As pointed, he is old or about the same age as Batman. And two Jokers at the same universe? Batman would have to deal with two Jokers at the same time?

He doesn't actually look old though, as far as we've seen this Joker could be in his mid 20s.

Also, I think Joker having tortured Robin until he went crazy and then getting killed, maybe by Robin himself, kind of goes in line with the Joker torturing Harley until she becomes who she is.

Also, in BvS Bruce gets the "You let your family die!" letter, which could fit with this idea (Robin being figuratively dead), and the tattoos on the joker + the writing on the burned suit kinda fit together too.

Again I doubt they would do it, but it would be a good way to get Robin and the Joker's backstories out of the way, it would basically tell the audience "yeah yeah Batman and the Joker fought each other many times, Robin was there too, and now Robin has gone nuts and the real Joker is dead". You don't even need any details, the audience just gets it and you got all the emotional investment for pretty much free.

I think it's a good idea, but I doubt it will be the case.
 
Predictions:

Slipknot - killed at the end of the first act to show Waller is not to be fucked with
El Diablo - redemptive sacrifice: either intentionally lets Waller blow his implant or sacrifices himself to the villain some way
Croc - KIA
Harley
Joker
Deadshot

Enchantress - Lives but is not part of the Squad in the sequel. Appears again in JLD
Captain Boomerang
Katana - Lives on but is not part of the Squad in the sequel. Appears again in another film; Vixen takes her role as the superhero on the team
Rick Flagg - Killed after some revelation that shows he's actually the dirtiest member of the Squad. Role is usurped by Steve Trevor in the sequel
Fixed for me.
 
She sells more merchandise than any other female superhero character apparently. I don't quite get the popularity but it's there.

Dude that's by people in the know. I understand that she's popular that doesn't mean she's known by the general public.

Case in point and purely Annecdotal, I'm at a family dinner, about 33 people here with ages ranging from 6 - 72. I've asked at least 50% of them if they know who Harley Quinn is, I followed that up with if they know who the Joker is. I got 4 positive for Harley and 100% on the Joker. The 4 that knew who Harley was were under 22 yrs.

Not trying to say she's on the level of the Joker, but she's probably the biggest name after that.

Surprised that older folks didn't know, considering B:TAS.
 
No, this is what Killer Croc is supposed to be. Besides why would they go for something more expensive?

Yeah I love the Croc design in SS. Reminds me of one of my favorite interpretations from the comics (from a design standpoint) in Broken City

He's just a bigass street hood/pimp who happens to have fucked up skin and teeth.
 
With Wonder Woman having such an important role in the DCEU, none of the female leads will die. I'm pretty sure. Katana and Harley are quite popular and Enchantress will be back for JLD. As for the guys, Diablo will sacrifice himself for the team and Slipknot will probably be the first to go. Killer Croc might get killed, but then his body will disappear and he will have slipped away into a sewer or something. Rick Flagg... yeah he'll probably bite it as well after the team finds out he is double-crossing them.
 
idk where all this talk of a Rick Flagg double cross is coming from, considering Hardy was originally going to get the role (so no way WB would make him a one and done), and he has no history of this in the comics.

El Diablo will die, but he's always been portrayed as having a slight bit of honor so it'll be heroic. Slipknot will die, no question, but it looks like he sticks around for a while. The first sacrificial character will probably be a character that won't be promo'd, just so fans don't get hyped.
 
something about this joker is just not doing it for me, it doesn't feel like a bad job, it just feels like a joker similiar to young justice, where you see it is trying to be joker but he doesn't have his charm or special factor, he is just a normal villain. When i saw pics of heaths joker, i was negative but when i saw the first trailer with him in it, i was thinking "now THAT is a scary and awesome joker", not feeling that at all with leto, i still see it as leto prentending to be joker. hope im wrong though
 
FTFY

I'm 50/50 on if they'll kill off Enchantress, though (just in case JLD actually happens).

I feel like Enchantress is the one character whose death can be instantly overcome by the next film they need her in. Justice League Dark could just have her back from the dead because, I dunno, magic shit, and they're fine. Anyone else needs the vague possibility of them coming back established here.
 
I like that this is set after BVS, showing the immediate consequences of Batman reemerging in a world where Superman is perceived as such a threat.

All the crazy ones came back too!

Didn't Del Torro get dropped from JL Dark? It's probably happening quicker than we think now that it can actually get done.
What? Seriously? I thought that movie was gonna be his baby? I'm actually sad he's not on it anymore.

I think it's safe they won't. The movie is probably PG 13. The Joker is really popular and sells. Sexualizing the torture or abuse would drive fans mad or disgusted which is not a good move for them imo.
I've never thought of Joker as a rapist. A violent, brutal asshole, yes. But never one to sexualize anything in any sense. Maybe strip someone to humiliate them, but not out of any sexual nature.

Depicting the Joker as a rapist is a really poor depiction of the character, honestly.

As such, I'd like to believe nothing about it will be sexualized.
It does sound stupid. I hope the dead Robin is Tim so we can still get Nightwing and eventually Carrie as the Robin post BvS. I'd be totally happy with them skipping Jason altogether.
The fuck?

Kill Tim?

Nonsense!
Why does everyone assume he killed Jason Todd? In the DC Animated Universe Joker killed Tim Drake

*MEGA SPOILER*
he survived and later went crazy and became the joker
And they skipped Jason in that universe altogether. I feel like DC won't ruin the opportunity to bring Red Hood in as a character, and I believe they'll use Jason for that.
Predictions:

Slipknot - Via idiocy
El Diablo - Via Redemption
Croc - KIA
Harley
Joker
Deadshot
Enchantress

Captain Boomerang
Katana
Rick Flagg

Fixed.

Someone mentioned bringing Steve Trevor in for SS and killing Rick Flagg...The fuck? Why? You would rather have a cardboard cutout on the Squad instead of a person?

She is crazy, kind of cute and a bit sexy (well Margot version is a bit more than a bit sexy)
I get her popularity,

I do think they are overdoing her sexiness in the Nu52 run though.
 
Eh. I assume they are going for pg-13 and it will show in the final version :/

of course it's going to be pg13, they are not going to make an R-rated movie with joker and batman.

People thinking the torture scene is going to be hard to watch, like there's even going to be one. It'll probably be like Joker says that line, and then the movie cuts to present day Harley Quinn.
 
Not even close, I find her disgusting. She's not the least bit attractive.

damn...different strokes then. i think she's gorgeous, unconventionally attractive because of the eyebrows but she makes it work imo.

anyways i've got mixed feelings on batman v superman trailer (i like a lot in there and some things i'm meh about) but this one...just 100% for me. love the tone, the music, the way it's shot etc.

i hope what we're seeing here is very indicative of the final product.

Yeah, I was thinking this. Unless they drastically changed their plans after Hardy pulled out.

Margot is currently the perfect casting as we dont have Brittany Murphy anymore.

Brittany Murphy ? She was ugly as hell.
