Give it to me.
Yeah, I mean I too would turn down an offer from a movie star to expand your universe with one of your most popular characters.
Terrible decision!

That's what happens you don't have a Feige or even a Kinberg & Singer.
EDIT: You lose the interconnectivity of the films as well as the build-up to larger "events", but I love DC's creative risks. If you told me 5 years ago we'd get a gritty Suicide Squad film, I'd be laughing in your face. DC allowing directors to make their films with their own style could lead to some very cool movies.
That 4chan rumor was right again
Eva Green as Selina
Do it WB.
Bryce Dallas Howard as Ivy
Eva Green as Selina
Do it WB.
Nah. This is a no-brainer.
I don't see how this movie is a bad idea or why we should take it as such. If it gives us a good movie especially with female leads I see that as a win for everyone.
The beauty about all of this is you can change and shift things as time moves on. The movie isn't out and Harley is already popular among the fans. If Margot knocks this out of the park and the movie is a decent success it would be stupid not to capitalize. Not to mention it seems Margot had a huge hand in this actually happening.

Is that a thing people say?
That rumor was kicked to the curb the moment it popped up. Regardless, if we don't get Babs, we'll get Stephanie. I doubt they'll want to bother with Cassie.
Yup. I struggled through that show in a couple of days. Felt like an eternity. Awful goddamned show. Also takes place in the same universe as Smallville, and was eventually supposed to tie in to it.Anyone remembers this

Can i have Cassandra Batgirl too?
Give us a dedicated Bat-family movie while you're at it, DC/WB.
He will quoting Catwoman and Elektra as indictments till his dying breath.
I say let them.

If stumbling through the dark and not having a 'feige' means not having to wait for 20 films before having TWO Female lead superhero films then fuck that
I'm not saying don't.
They'd probably be better off not pretending they have a plan and instead just making movies as and when the opportunities arise. It'd stop Snyder in his tracks.

Saw 3 women dressed up as those 3 at the bar one Halloween. They called themselves Batman's Bitches. That would be a fun title for the movie.
Seriously though, so long as Snyder isn't attached, I'd check it out

I wish it was just Harley, maybe Poison Ivy too but that would be it for me. I'm not really into ensemble crossover films as much.
Hopefully vaguely kinda like SS is. You can keep the movies like WW, JL1 and 2, Flash and Aquaman the connected movies.
Suicide Squad obviously ties into this universe, but I don't think it'll overtly reference everything. It'll most likely be it's own thing and it could very well spawn it's own thing. As evidenced by this news. If anything I expect SS to tie more so into the Batman solo films more so that any of the JL stuff.

Eh, I don't see how you get this. IF SS breaks out then using Harley to expand the universe is completely reasonable. Its only a bad way to go if Suicide Squad doesn't work out, in which case WB will have be bigger problems.
WB could have made a WW film since the 70s after buying DC. Marvel could only option off their properties until they were bought by Disney in 2009.

She's not alllll bad
Yeah this feels more like a "spin-off" rather than a major franchise installment.

I kind of meant that if getting More female lead action flicks is 'stumbling through the dark', then that cant be a bad thing
Eh if you go too far back, can't complain because DC has tried twice in a lot less films than Marvel.
If you go currently, Wonder Woman will still best any of their female-led films by a few months.
What did he mean by this?

It's time for Eartha Kitt Catwoman again

She's my favorite person right now. Hopefully they keep Snyder's hands away from this shit.
Where would this movie fit in the DCEU?
Just a side story to the Justice League when Darkseid is wrecking the world?
Nope. But it's what certain people HOPE others are saying to fit their worldview.

We don't know when the movie is set. For all we know we aren't getting it for a few years, maybe even after Justice League.
Not any different from whatever Marvel will have to do to have Ant-Man and the Wasp plus Captain Marvel in the middle of Thanos wrecking the Avengers.
Are you referring to Catwoman? Cuz Marvel had Electra! *shudder*
I think both companies deserve flack for taking so long - Marvel for having the means and the public good will for the past 8 years and not jumping on it and WB for ignoring Wonder Woman's potential for decades.

If they bring in Catwoman, they should go with Darwyn Cooke style Catwoman.
