And what about casual fans/general audiences who don't pay attention to that stuff and saw him plastered on every poster?

24 pages and the film isn't even out yet. Hell even the reviews aren't out. The thirst.
They still went to Godzilla.
What did he mean by this?

So thats it huh? We're the patsies
That's on the audience. They should know by now how marketing works and how deceptive it can be.

That movie had essentially anti-legs though
And tbh the lack of Godzilla wasn't my issue with it, the lack of Cranston was
Joker cuts indeed.

@manthx Apparently "Bye Bye!" scene and the scene of Joker slapping Margot in the streets is not in the final film.
Aka my avatar scene isn't even in the movie

Can't wait for the Director's Cut.
Fucking DC, man...

Those trailers were great. It's the reason most of my family saw it, although they were a bit disappointed how long it took for Godzilla to show up and wreck.

That movie was so freaking boring. Skull Island looks better.

Which collapsed in its second week much like BvS.
This is apparently the Director's Cut haha, it was Ayer who didn't want this to become the Joker show. And there is a dramatic reason why the scene was cut as I pointed out above (spoilers).

Don't you deny me my chaos
This is true.
Bait and switching when it comes to over-advertising specific roles is a pretty common occurrence. If the movie is good, people won't care.
Look at the marketing for Inglorious Basterds. Waltz had like double of the lines of Pitt in the film, but the trailers make it seem like the Brad Pitt Show.

I agree. I had a pretty nasty bout of the flu a couple of months back and was basically stuck in bed. I bought Godzilla because, well, it's fucking Godzilla, and goddamn if that wasn't the sloggiest of slogs to get through.
If anything, all reviews should just be posted in here as they come online. Then added to the OP once the majority are out.

OTs should replace review threads, IMO.

People comparing Joker to Godzilla? When there wasn't Godzilla there was Cranston and when Cranston exited the film, there was nothing interesting to throw back to when Godzilla wasn't on the screen. Can't compare that to Suicide Squad where you have a whole ensemble of super powered characters.
Agreed.

Not defending their marketing at all. I'm just happy that it's becoming less of the Joker show.
Currently the only worry I have is Will Smith being "Not muh Deadshot" and a few of too much romanticising Harley and the Joker when ideally she needs to be emancipated from him from the off. Harley without Joker actually comes close to being an actual character sometimes.
Truth.

Normally I'd say that wouldn't happen. But after the Ghostbusters clusterfuck...I just don't know anymore. Nerds are fickle as fuck to such matters.
I love you too sunshine!
Fucking dc what? The byebye scene was in the old ending and got dropped when reshoots happened.
We are in freak out mode.
You can only refer to the old ending as the "superior ending that was butchered by DC".
A really cool moment from the trailer that I liked is now gone and I don't like this, you know, because I thought it was cool.
And the movie is much better for it. Just trust me it didn't work the way it was.
Yes.

Supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting, who would really ever wanna go and top that
Most definitely. Can't lose deal since you'll be saving on the movie ticket for a film you were probably going to see.
Director's Cut is long, but I found it enjoyable. I rewatched some of Snyder's past films earlier this year. Watchmen and Dawn of the Dead are the ones that I think have aged the best. And the former I probably like even more now than I did watching the theatrical cut. 300 on the other hand...not so much.

We should tattoo "DIVIDED" on Bronson's forehead.
He is BronsonLee Prime.
But I hear there is a ultimate edition with more extras and the full motion comic but it's like $100.

Seconded.
I'm betting the ending got changed because the Joker's character got changed. Based on what I'm reading from people who've seen it,
As hard as that is to believe, that seems to be the case. Consider the fact that they cut the scene where the Joker
Says a lot about the direction they wanted to take him.
the Joker isn't really that bad of a guy in this film.
slaps Harley.
Yep. They are picturing him as a sympathetic character, for some reason. I bet it's because of Harley, I was sure they weren't going to the dark places of their relationship.
Maybe they are leaving their options open, so they can have him as a squad member in the sequel if need be.
