They'll flip the script.

Already planting seeds with the superhero movie fatigue and Marvel being formulaic. Got to keep feeding the rage-machine.

Speaking of, interesting discussion going on Twitter (I know!) with Gail Simone and others about how she thinks Harley will be the break-out of the movie, and trying to explain to people that Harley doesn't need to be a role-model for girls to be a break-out.

It is true though, you never really question when like The Punisher or Ghost Rider are marketed towards young boys.

Man I love Gail Simone. I actually have the first three New 52 Batgirl comics she did signed by her when she did a signing up in Newcastle one time.

Off-topic I know, just really like her and her opinions. She always comes across as really level headed.

if they include stuff like this

to show how crazy she is, then yes, she is going to be massive.

As long as they don't give her that catchphrase, I thought YAHTZEE was so... cheap

She comes across as a really nice person. Which is rare.

And Harley Quinn is like Deadpool - the fact she's so entertaining makes her have a large following. People don't look up to her, they just like the fact she's invariably entertaining.

Yeah, it only really worked the one time for me with the end of the sex scene. Otherwise it was kinda pointless

Maybe I'm just ignorant or naive or really tired because insomnia but I don't see why anyone would think Harley should be a role model in the first place. She's a murderous psychopath. If I ever had a daughter and she started looking up to Harley I'd sit down and have a good long talk with her, and not even because of her outfits. Same if I had a son and he looked up the Punisher. I'd tell him to go idolize Superman or something lol.

Now enjoying the character is another thing. I loved The Punisher when I was growing up but I sure didn't idolize him.

 

[Anton Sugar]

These are awful.

 

[Bloodrage]

None of those look better.

She's a popular female character, who gets pushed a ton by DC.

And really not a ton of them from either company so the assumption is she should be a character that young girls and women could look to to be a role-model.

That looks like it comes from a porn parody video.

Please, the actual porn parody looks way better:

Their "why couldn't Lex look like this" article was actually on point

 

[Wolfgunblood Garopa]

I hate this obsession with oversexualising Harley over the last few years. Her costume is terrible here and in the current comics. I miss old Harley

How does this even happen. Harley exists to be sex appeal.

That Catwoman outfit is awesome.

 

[EmptySpace]

You think that Will Smith is paying them to act in their movie...?

Um.

I don't think that's how it works.

maybe you read my post wrong.

because this is something will smith clearly has to do right? Jesus christ people.

will smith has been shoe-horning his kids into movies. he's been begging for a hit that stars him.

You should see their Carrie Kelly

I dunno man, this really does it for me.

 

[Ganzlinger]

I'm thirsty for some Enchantress' pictures.

 

[Messypandas]

And she always seems to talk in a perpetual type "come hither" tone. I hate obnoxious, low-catering titillation like this type of stuff

But I think in her case it makes sense.

please tell me this is fake

 

[Anton Sugar]

please tell me this is fake

That is a 110% direct screen grab from Age of Ultron. In no way whatsoever is it photoshopped.

 

[PhoncipleBone]

please tell me this is fake

It is real. Just like Santa and the Easter Bunny.

 

[Messypandas]

Of course its fake lol

 

[Ganzlinger]

please tell me this is fake

You can easily check Johansson's real boobs on the internet.

 

[nintendork666]

Why does Harley Quinn always have to look like an ex-Goth stripper?

To be fair, EVERYONE should have to look like an ex Goth stripper.

lool

Are people still hating on Jesse, by the way?

He's really not as young as people think he is. He's gonna be great.

[Effect]

The idea that Harley Quinn needs to be a role model makes no sense. Nothing about her character suggest that should be the case. Now she can and should be seen as a case study or an example of what not to do or even what one could do when she decides to get away from the abuse relationship she has with the Joker and stand on her own. As an overall role model? No. Doesn't stop her from being an interesting character and one you want to see succeed though.

The role model role should be left to Wonder Woman and those on the hero side of things.

 

[thecouncil]

All the sexually submissive language associated with Harley's costume is as lame as Donatello wearing taped glasses in the TMNT movies because he's a nerd.

 

[scabro]

Wow Joss is disgusting. Not only did he really make Scarlett wear that, he had her cleavage covered in baby oil. Probably did it himself too. What a pig.

 

[Messypandas]

We know better now don't we

 

[ReiGun]

In which case please get a proper quality, non-tumblr version. People are still using that 2 FPS yellow filter version of "perfection" from First Class for some reason.

Sometimes the lower quality makes it more effective. I'd never trade the bootleg Harry Osborn "so good" gif for anything.

I am not going to lie. I'm looking forward to this more than any other DC movie.

Might've gotten that $200M weekend if this was real.

 

[TheOnlyOneHeEverFeared]

I just realised, much as I hate most of those costumes and think most of whats in that photo is poor, Margot Robbie is ideal for Harley. So theres hope still.

 

[PhoncipleBone]

He wouldn't do that himself. Now, if it were her feet, then yes he would cover them in baby oil himself.

Isn't that Quentin Tarantinos thing?

This. Thats the kind of shit that i want to see from Harley in this movie.

 

[FlutterPuffs]

I made this to illustrate my point. Unfortunately, I'm awful at photoshop, but you get the idea.

m8.

CG to hide makeup flaws. Camera tricks to make Croc look bigger.

That's how tall Tom Hardy is compared to Bale (and his stunt double).

Ian Mckellen isn't a fucking giant in real life.

Meh, wonder woman is miscast. The other one they had wore the outfit much better.

 

[Messypandas]

How come that looks legit and the one in the TV show looked like a porn outfit. Solve that one science.
