Ronan the Accuser and Malekith were poorly developed villains say whaaaaaaat?


Absolutely not. Joker is not a team player at all. Plus, he's never been in any incarnation of the Squad so I'd like to believe that they'll stick close to that.

Huh?

 

[DeathyBoy]

Wait, wait, wait

You think Ronan and Malekith are well-developed villains?

I would LOVE to hear this!

I enjoyed Ronan because he shows Thanos up completely and absolutely, and I cannot believe Marvel let James Gunn have fucking Ronan punk out Thanos and backchat him repeatedly. It's such a brilliant "fuck you" to this awful imposter version of Thanos.

Thanos is gonna job SO HARD. It'll be glorious. His picture will be in the dictionary next to the newly accepted verb form of "to job."

Much as I dislike Snyder, his version of Darkseid will be glorious.

 

[sam777]

Getting close to overtaking the BvS trailer, that would be something.

Oh my God, he did... how am I just now seeing this?

 

[hal9001]

Ezra Miller so stoned

He's talking about Flash a bit.

I love he's enthusiasm. I am a huge Ezra fan and can't wait to see him as The Flash.

 

[Talon]

Rope guy is secretly candlejack isn't he?

 

[Kenzodielocke]

He's already The Flash, he's a Batman Fanboy.

 

[NumberTwo]

Much as I dislike Snyder, his version of Darkseid will be glorious.

We're years away from anything like this but I can't wait until the first images of him begin appearing.

 

[Johndoey]

An ultraminority, played by a no-name actor best known for his role as Kickin' Wing in Joe Dirt, playing a character with the power of rope? Like, Shaggy's music career dead.

 

[MC Safety]

Absolutely not. Joker is not a team player at all. Plus, he's never been in any incarnation of the Squad so I'd like to believe that they'll stick close to that.

The idea of the Suicide Squad is that none of them are team players. They're all rogues and psychopaths, with the occasional odd hero thrown in. And the bad ones are all compelled to obey with explosive devices.

Joker would be a last resort. In this case, the situation is so dire his services are required.

There's a reason Lex never calls Joker when he wants to put together a new Legion of Doom.

Joker was a member of the Injustice Gang and the Injustice Squad. I guess DC Comics ran out of supervillain team names.

 

[Cooter]

Much as I dislike Snyder, his version of Darkseid will be glorious.

Oh god! Thank you for putting this thought into my mind it will indeed be glorious.

 

[Future Foundation]

The Royal Flush Gang and Kite Man got invited?

Joker has every right to be angry.

And fucking Kite Man said no!

Even Tweedle-Dee and the new Dum got in.

 

[Rooster12]

Ronan the Accuser and Malekith were poorly developed villains say whaaaaaaat?

I always thought Malekith was pretty lame in the comics, he was almost a Joker clone....he was even worse in the movie.

With that said, I did enjoy Thor 2.

 

[BadAss2961]

Much as I dislike Snyder, his version of Darkseid will be glorious.

After CGI Thanos and Ivan Ooze Apocalypse, the door is still open for Darkseid to stand out and stand alone as he should.

As long we talkin Darkseid...

I actually hope when it comes to voice casting they go against the obvious big boomer.

Michael Ironside was great. Better than great.

But I hope they go for someone warm, almost friendly sounding by default, but can unleash rage in one word/sentence if need be.

These two are probably too old, but you get my drift.

And I'm sleepy and can't think of any other examples ATM.

 

[LegendofDragoonLives]

Thanos looks great and convincing IMO, he's fine. The problem might be dialogue. Hopefully he doesn't turn into a blatant 1-liner laugh track villain like 90% of the characters in Marvel movies so far. I have high hopes he will be an amazing villain, since I believe the directors of Winter Soldier are directing that movie. Those people actually know how to make a villain feel threatening.

By the way other than BvS and Avengers which is several established superheroes into one, only 1 trailer of Ironman 3 and two trailers of MoS beat this trailer in terms of views. I doubt there isn't a single person in the world that expected these kinds of numbers. -_-

Spoiler

please be good

I think I will be skipping every trailer of this movie like I will of BvS from now on.

I see where you're coming from, but Darkseid is not a character for... nuance. He has no pretensions to joviality. He has no need of them. He is hate, and he is absolute.

Jeez I love how he talks about this stuff man, I wish Cavill showed this kind of enthusiasm.

 

[Poodlestrike]

Heil Hitler

Holy crap, that guy has not changed one whit since 1991. Dude looks basically the same in Alpha House.

 

[Loxley]

Since he's not playing Luthor, get Clancy Brown to play Darkseid.

 

[Eppy Thatcher]

Holy crap, that guy has not changed one whit since 1991. Dude looks basically the same in Alpha House.

If there is Lovecraftian Horror god out there The Goodman will never die.

 

[Gleethor]

I keep telling you guys, Spacey is our Darkseid.

 

[SporeCrawler]

Song is annoyingly horrible. Aside of that its hard to muster whats going on but death stroke, harley and joker look good.

 

[ryan299]

SS has passed BvS in views. Holy shit. SS is at 34 and BvS is 25,000 away from 34.

 

[Mad Season]

A lot of my friends hate jokers tattoos. Was there a comic version of him with these tattoos?

Yeah there was that one where he was part of a gang i think. Yakuza? I can't remember if it was a red dragon on his back.

SS #1 must see movie next year, sucks that i have to wait 13months, after the second trailer my hype for BvS has dropped..

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Love it

He will be such a great Flash. I love him already.

I hope this tells WB they don't need to rely on Batman and Superman so much.

 

[Napoleonthechimp]

Marvel vs DC isn't enough so now we've got to turn Suicide Squad trailer vs BvS trailer into a competition? I really wish people would let this stupid shit go.

 

[IconGrist]

I doubt WB cares which has more views. Both movies are going to make bank and that's what they care about in the end.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Joker easily could get his own movies.

 

[Combat Wombat]

No one's turning it into a competition. It's just impressive seeing Suicide Squad get more views than freaking Batman vs Superman. It bodes well for this film's potential success.

it's a much better trailer honestly, and it helps that the joker (being the thumbnail) is a bigger character than batman and superman combined

 

[Slaythe]

I have a feeling Harley and Joker are going to be huge.

I trust the actors. And the writers are using iconic comic storyline as basis.

I hope Joker isn't just small cameos in SS and has a full role. Even though he might be flashback until the end where he breaks free maybe.

 

[Combat Wombat]

Oh I agree. The music especially makes the trailer better for me. I'm super excited for BvS but I found the new trailer too loud and bombastic.

 

[Gonzalez]

I think ultimately it's getting more views than BVS, because A) Joker & Harley together for the first time in live-action on the silver screen, and B) completely brand new property, with a brand new concept for a mainstream audience.

 

[DeathyBoy]

Joker isn't a team player so he can't be in the Suicide Squad, composed of people who don't want to be there and have bombs put in their necks so if they go rogue they die... I actually think Joker would find that hilarious as a one off project, like using his Joker skills to put his bomb inside Rope Guy so when Joker goes rogue they set off his bomb and it blows up Rope Guy twice, so much so that it sets El Diablo on fire who charges at Captain Boomerang, who throws a boomerang at El Diablo that goes through his head and triggers his bomb, sending Rick Flagg flying over a railing.

And Joker is just sat back eating popcorn.

I watched Assault on Arkham because of this film and was wondering will the film do the bombs in the neck situation.

Also excuse my naivety but who is this rope guy everyone is reffering to?

The ultra obscure character Slipknot portrayed in the movie by Adam Beach

 

[overcast]

I don't think Youtube trailer views necessarily equal success box office wise though.

I hope this tells WB they don't need to rely on Batman and Superman so much.

Ultimately though, they need to get BvS right to set this universe in motion. I'm still a bit of a skeptic regarding the quality of these two movies despite being hyped for them.

 

[Poodlestrike]

The ultra obscure character Slipknot portrayed in the movie by Adam Beach

His history in the squad:

Slipknot is taken along when the threat of the Manhunters arises on earth during the Millennium crisis. A stronghold of Manhunter robots is discovered deep in American swamplands not far from the Suicide Squad's own base located in the Belle Reve prison. Slipknot and the Squad, including members such as Bronze Tiger, Rick Flagg, and Captain Boomerang are sent in to escort the "Baby Huey" (a car-bomb laced with an experimental high yield explosive) on a search and destroy mission. Slipknot discusses the 'arm band bombs' with Captain Boomerang. These deterrent devices are placed on the less trustworthy members and are set to explode if the person goes too far out of range. Captain Boomerang states that he believes the bombs are fake. This is enough for Slipknot. When he discovers his talent for strangling is useless against robots he makes a run for it into the swamp. The device begins beeping and flashing an alarm but Slipknot ignores the warning and once he gets out of range, his right arm is blown off. Boomerang, who had not been sure of the bomb's reality himself, thinks 'better you than me'. Following the success of the mission, in which the Manhunter base is destroyed and the Squad's medic Karin Grace is sacrificed, Slipknot is found, weakened and bleeding but still alive, by Duchess (Lashina in disguise).[2]

"he discovers his talent for strangling is useless against robots" is a hell of a thing.

I was thinking about DCs next 6 films and I can say I am pumped for all of them.

-BvS and SS next year are must sees.
-WW and JL are highly anticipated
-Aquaman and Flash have me super intrigued.

Overall I have high hopes for DC but I am a self proclaimed DC guy. I would freely admit any reservations though. I try to live on the real world.

EDIT: Totally forgot the solo Batman film. Hell yeah! Bring that on!
