A skirt could work with this outfit but it'd have to be more of a skater skirt, not a frilly petticoat.

Your avatar is fantastic liliththepale. Gonna have to edit mine later.

Smith put a photo of the full Deadshot costume on Facebook. They didn't cover his face here because it's Will Smith - you want to promote that he's in the film, and it's hard to do that on a full cast costume poster if his face is obscured by a mask.

I know. Which is why i found funny. Maybe in the movie they will also have problems hiding Smith's face all the time eheh

Set photos are looking good.

LOL people attributing the the classic "line up of rogues" shot to GotG is like when crazy people said 007 Spectre and Mission Impossible were copying Winter Soldier's espionage plot.

Oh and there's more. Just go through that thread.

You didn't know Marvel invented cinema?!

 

[Frog-fu]

I think I like how Assault on Arkham does it without Batman better. It adds some more variety and keeps from having an "and stay down" ending, if you know what I mean.

Yeah, but I'd like to be Bats' doing because then it'll make sense for Batman to be this urban legend like figure that hasn't been seen in years. I specifically hope that if Joker keeps the silver teeth it's because Bats beat the shit out of him after doing something terrible like killing one of the Robins or Commissioner Gordon - something that would explain his retirement.

That's true. Really, everything they've shown for the movie so far has me very excited, so I trust they'll do what's best for the narrative.

 

[Benzychenz]

Harley is the only one I know and she looks great.

 

[Raziel]

From a studio perspective they see a film about "ragtag team of comic losers/criminals save the universe" and ask DC Comics what do we got so Someone at DC twists the suicide squad concept into "ragtag team of losers/criminals who end up saving the world". There's a lot of studio and office politics involved it's the reason even little things like why characters look different than they do in the comic, who's in the movie, how the movie is marketed, all of that is decided by a variety of factors that don't have anything to do with preserving the integrity of the comics or making a good movie.

Fritz Lang was totally biting on Ultron's styling when he made Metropolis, fuckin' hack.

 

[Messypandas]

Marvel would never green-light this movie, theres 3 women on the team. Much harder to obscure from the merchandise /s

More likely: they realized they have way better villains than Marvel - because Spider-Man and X-Men are off-limits - which means showcasing all their villains at once is an excellent chance to show they're trying something else than Marvel.

They can actually use Spider-man villains now I believe.

Oh and BTW I praised the deadshot design a few pages back despite having earlier reservations about will smith playing Lawton.

Oh my!

 

[Forkball]

So when is this coming to The CW?

 

[DeathyBoy]

Oh, they absolutely will. You think we see a lot of Tony Stark and Bruce Banner for storytelling reasons?

Yep, or one of the originals that started this kind of film:

The Seven Samurai (1954)

A poor village under attack by bandits recruits seven unemployed samurai to help them defend themselves.

No doubt. I'll be incredibly disappointed if we don't see some couch action-Darkseid in the DCCU.

[-Plasma Reus-]

It's insane how much HQ stands out from the rest of the characters.
All of the other just look so bland and boring, HQ seems so well realised. I hope they understand that HQ along with Joker is the number one reason people will be talking about this film.

 

[EdibleExplosives]

Those Harley pics are so much better than the original cast pic. Her costume is a lot more colourful than it originally looked.

Margot Robbie looks perfect as Harley.

 

[DeathyBoy]

No doubt. I'll be incredibly disappointed if we don't see some couch action-Darkseid in the DCCU.

I want this to be a scene in the Justice League film.

 

[Joni]

That is too recent to have an effect on anything before 2017 though with the added possibility that Sony is still making Sinister Six.

 

[Messypandas]

I hope we see Mongul before Darkseid. The warworld is movie ready

 

[shink]

Watch this, and imagine it pitched up an octave.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4Kkunxsv1A

That's probably what her Harley will sound like.

I hope it sounds as good as it does in my head now.

 

[DeathyBoy]

I really hope if we get Mongul that Darkseid is manipulating him. Then Darkseid's plan can be to claim... I don't know, The Helmet of Nabu, and we'll get the reveal that the helmet is part of some cosmic super armour... yeah... that Darkseid can wear to become super powerful.

 

[sam777]

Getting that Harley Avi. Deadshot looks cool as, in that mask.

 

[Team Filler]

LMAO, that would be amazing. Such a terrible shame that DC won't allow jokes in their movies, a real tragedy.

No man... should have all that power.

No jokes already has a confirmed appearance in SS aswell

 

[Discotheque]

making darkseid a long-game villain (much like marvel is doing with thanos) is so uninteresting imo. i hope WB doesn't constantly tease him or anything. if they need to build him up make it in one prior film MAX

or maybe just allude to him in other films but nothing more than that.

 

[Octavianus]

Eh... looks pretty ehh.. Really glad DC is keeping movie DC seperate from TV DC at this point.

 

[-Plasma Reus-]

Thanos looks so boring, like audiences don't even react to his goofy ass. Everyone just walked off without any reaction every time he's been teased.

 

[Chariot]

Croc and Deadshots mask look silly, the looks ok for now. Need to see more.

 

[SliceSabre]

Smith looks good, but that's not saying much because he always looks good in every movies he plays in, even the bad ones.

 

[Ushay]

Wow looks a lot better than I thought. Hype.

 

[pringles]

Not familiar with most of the characters but I think it looks pretty interesting. With so many characters you probably have to tone some down to make others (Harley Quinn, Joker) stand out if you don't want to go completely over-the-top with everything. I like that they don't all look completely crazy, of course it's up to the actors and the script to make the characters interesting.

 

[Messypandas]

Croc is pretty faithful to his original look.

I wouldn't be surprised if he "hulks out" as he loses his humanity. Which makes him a major pain in the ass to Batman.

 

[CadetMahoney]

Straight to TV looking, but I still like it.

 

[Gordon Shumway]

"masterbate in agreement"

lol..love these DC vs Marvel threads. Always gems.

 

[Odoul]

That leak makes Harley look MUCH MUCH a hundred million billion times better than the original official photo!

And I'm pretty damn certain she'll be getting at least a few different looks by the end of this thing.

Can't wait.

Jokes aside, Darkseid rarely does long-cons unless he physically has to (like Final Crisis, Great Darkness Saga.) He prefers just showing up and fucking shit up.

[More_Badass]

Hmmm a band of ragtag characters standing in a line. Where have I seen this before...

 

[BY2K]

Okay this is starting to look pretty good.

Love the costumes.

 

[dark_prinny]

 

[DeathyBoy]

No. Marvel invented cinema. Stop it.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

I hope it kinda makes sense why it's after Batman v Superman, despite the movie's plot playing before it.

 

[Fudgepuppy]

I want Harleys boots...

 

[Kenzodielocke]

For all falling for Margot Robbie, wait for Wonder Woman.

 

[Kinyou]

I think I'm okay with this. Only enchantress seems a bit weird. Don't remember her looking that messed up

 

[Imperial]

They all look awesome. Props for using practical effects on Killer Croc
