You'd think mans would freak out more at that impression bomb The One and Done just dropped, but surprisingly DC-GAF is holding it together.
And with that I'm dropping my prediction to 65-70.

wishes it were bannable to say mean things about Marvel
From what I've read so far, only flashbacks and the mid credit scene.
Most people so far seem to feel that the film is very average. It's okay but not very riveting, and kinda more tame than expected. It will be interesting to see other's opinions as more people see it.
He said not bad, but dissapointing, our expectations were pretty grounded. Specially myself, I'm expecting a Marvel B tier movie at best, gamechanger this one wasn't going to be. This one is for the General Audience.

Marvel-tier is pretty vague. IMO more than half of the MCU is good-great, while the rest are aggressively mediocre - which sounds like One and Done's impressive lol
Fuck that. Hype destroyed. Was expecting Batman to wreck some shit in 3rd act.
Thor/Iron Man 3 tier. Forgettable but passable, "fun".

From the spoilers this movie sounds like a bunch of nothing

He doesn't have the elite level clout and the sterling rep that I do as a film reviewer
Armond White has more professionalism than me

If that Joker spoiler is legit, then Donna Dickens is going to have a field day with it.

That sounds about right. I hope hot topic joker at least kill someone.

There's literally no reason anyone should have expected that. His presence in all the trailers that featured him was very minimal. It was obvious that he wasn't going to be any significant part of the movie.
A man can dream...
I could see why someone would expect a lot of Joker but I have no idea why you expected Batman to have a substantial role.

While I never expected him to be in the film a whole lot. He has been in every trailer and a huge part of the marketing. I've seen more joker then most of the actual Squad members. People expecting him to be a big part of the movie is on the marketing not them.
They've reused the same 2-3 shots of Batman, all clearly from the same sequence.
Because if you're bringing Batman into your hundred million dollar budget movie your audience expects him to do something aside from showing up in flashbacks...
The movie is called Suicide Squad.
DAY ONE. This sounds super fun.
I feel that the amount of screen time batman has had in the trailers is an accurate reflection of his role in the movie.
And yet it mainly uses Joker for it's marketing.
Joker was never an important character in SS comics as far as i remember.

I watched that whole video and the interviewer said he thought Joker was redeemable and Leto made no attempt to agree with him even when the guy was baiting it. There's no mention of any removed scenes except for one with Harley using the bat like a shotgun.

Yeah there is. Many People who have seen the movie have said the entire sequence where Harley shoots the truck driver confronts Joker isn't in the movie
Idk I see it myself tonight so I'll report back what's all been removed.

and yes even recent trailers have shown this scene, it's the scene where he slaps his hands together. Also the grenade scene is out completely. We never see Joker with his half face fucked up. Mumblings of early test screenings mentioned him scolding a d throwing her out of the helicopter(that Rolling Stone still of Jared scolding Harley kind of backs this up), which is no longer the case.

I meant in the video. You said they took all the abusive bits out immediately followed by a link to an interview. One assumes that video is your source. But there's no mention of it in the video.
He does. Joker is still Joker, fucked up and killing people. Just less because Ayer didn't want Suicide Squad to be Joker's movie, he wanted it to obviously be Suicide Squad's movie. Its just a taste of what Leto can do, go into the movie with that in mind and you'll appreciate it.

Is Leto's Joker similar to other versions of the character? Say, Joker from Batman: The Animated Series?

Maaaaan your impressions are giving me life. I am now mentally prepared for Tuesday. Let's do this thang.
DeathoftheEndless
Crashing this plane... with no survivors!
Does Joker wear the lime-green Batman suit seen in some of the collectibles?
Does harley wants to go back to her or is she going .... vegetarian ?
I can't really say actually, Leto just brings his own style with a mix of the crazy Joker we've seen in the past. He's gangsta when he wants to be and down right cold blooded when the time is right.
Just don't overhype yourself and you'll enjoy it, like I've been saying in the OT. A few people I chatted with were slightly disappointed because they overhyped themselves but they still enjoyed it.
If you can find a picture it will probably help me but I don't believe so. Though I felt his wardrobe was well done, like all the other characters.

I can dig it.
Please don't tell me this is a Joker line

Yeah he says something like that while he is babbling and bragging about how great Harley is to Common's character in the club. It sounds weird if you are reading it now but I thought it was funny the way he is rambling on and it completely caught me off guard, wasn't expecting some of the things he says in this.
He kind of lets Common play with Harley and BAMMMMMMMMMMMMM.
I definitely feel like there is an R-Rated cut out there to be released. They must've gone further with that Ike Barinholtz scene, it ends so abruptly ughhhh, didn't even get to the toys line.
To say that I knew this movie would turn out lame would be like saying I knew expired milk would be spoiled.
That's marketing for ya

Where are you getting the lame bit from? Reviews aren't out yet and most impressions on here have been generally positive
I read that in Hamill's voice. Sounds like something TAS Joker would say if it was less kid friendly. Or maybe Arkham Joker

So in the middle of the movie, Joker disables Harley's bomb. In the end when Waller comes back, her bomb is active again. Am I missing something or is that a huge plot hole? I don't think they ever indicate that the Joker turning it off is temporary.

Can someone please spoil the following:
To what extent do we see Harley in the jester costume? I heard mention that she wear it in a dancing scene - does the scene have her wearing the jester hat as well?
