Much like BvS, we are ready and expecting a huge opening weekend. The question is how big the drops will be.

 

[wesleyshark]

So we getting getting the WB cut then?

Polygon is reporting that it's likely we'll get an extended R rated cut. But... It's Polygon, so, could be way off lol.

 

[Yeezus H. Christ]

I dont know about $800M but I doubt this does poorly enough to be a financial disaster.

How much do you see it making?

 

[BronsonLee]

Why is this good news?

That's not good news.

Act like you've been here before, nerds

I dont know about $800M but I doubt this does poorly enough to be a financial disaster.

Are you doubting the power of my birthday to make hit movies, swiss

I've got Rush Hour under my belt

 

[3N16MA]

This is the biggest betrayal in Box-Office GAF history

Not you too

I doubt we will get a new cut. Just because BvS was rated like in September and Snyder probably insisted on it before making the deal.

 

[Kickz]

Some good news atleast.
Box Office: ‘Suicide Squad’ Outpaces ‘Deadpool,’ ‘Guardians’ Overseas, Opens to $8.1 Million

This is that Transformers dilemma

[Tatsumaki Senpuukyaku!]

They will give zero fucks about the critic reception if it hits their 800 mil goal

They'll laugh forever if it hits a billion

I hope it hits a billion so all of the crazy people who think this movie was made "for the fans" will have their opinions validated.

 

[BLACKLAC]

I wonder what the DCEU would be like if Johns was heading it from the beginning?

Green Lantern

 

[rrc1594]

Jesus 28% WB WTF are you doing

 

[Jake2by4]

Green Lantern

Was he directly responsible for that tbh?

 

[3N16MA]

WB should say "fuck it" and release R rated films as part
of the DCEU.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

I would like them to have their JL universe and then single movies for each hero. I don't give a crap about connections.

 

[AlfredX1990]

I predict a bigger drop than BvS, BvS was carried because it has Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman in the same movie, Suicide Squad doesn't have the same appeal

 

[bananafactory]

Jesus 28% WB WTF are you doing

Honestly it's kind of amazing they put out two films within 1% of each other

Thats damn consistent

 

[MANUELF]

Article in Spanish but Mexico's second largest theater chain is not going to show Suicide Squad for some last minute contract changes

OH WOW
The movie will bomb then, in a lot of cities Cinemex is the only movie theather, also they are the cheapest

That's true we can't say they are all over the place.

 

[jmood88]

I felt like Nightcrawler was a film about the Joker's early years, before he fully snapped.

It was ridiculous that he wasn't nominated for an Oscar. That movie wouldn't have been half as watchable without his performance.

 

[Wingfan19]

Aww, that green jacket pic wasn't what we all thought (hoped) it to be... Leto clears it up...

http://www.vanityfair.com/style/2016/08/jared-leto-gucci-truth?mbid=social_twitter

Except that’s not what happened at all. “The thing about the photo is—I’m going to be honest with you—I was actually making a face at someone across the runway,” Leto told VF.com on a phone call early Thursday morning. To cushion the blow, he conceded, “I have that feeling with most things [Gucci] makes because they make such beautiful things. But I was actually goofing off with a friend, and you can’t actually tell from the picture.

“Sorry to ruin your meme,” he said. “Perception versus reality.”

“Maybe I’ll just go on believing that it was a moment of joy,” I said, laughing the pain away.

“Or you could tell the real story,” he suggests. “That would be interesting.”

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

Did Ayer just fall on his sword?

More like tripped on it

 

[BronsonLee]

Man Leto shut up

 

[J_Viper]

http://collider.com/suicide-squad-deleted-scenes-jared-leto-david-ayer/

I don't buy it, Dave

 

[Astral]

I wonder how many people are watching this just to see how bad it is. If I do watch it today, that'll be the reason.

 

[Lord Virgin]

Man Leto shut up

You shut up

 

[Ahasverus]

Green Lantern

Not his script.

 

[GravityInsanity]

Man dreams are being shattered for the DC universe. We get the Worlds Finest on the big screen together for the first time and it ends up being bad. Wonder Woman on the big screen for the first time and she's in a bad movie. Harley Quinn on the big screen for the first time, bad movie. This is the first time Joker was in a bad movie. A no smiling Superman who's face is always constipated. We could've had a Red Hood story line for the solo Batman film but now that's ruined because Batman is a killer in this universe.

Spoiler

Jimmy Olsen

...WHY

 

[wesleyshark]

I'm going on Sunday. I'm ready for heaven or hell. Expecting hell lol.

 

[Doctoglethorpe]

Green Lantern

Hal Jordan in a circle jerk with a few clones of himself, over the rotting corpse of Martian Manhunter, to be specific.

 

[-Plasma Reus-]

Hopefully it's not too late for him to get involved with MIB 23.



So we can blame you for all of this, David?

He's doing the right thing, take the blame so he can make a sequel.

 

[Tom_Cody]

Lol. Pitch perfect.

 

[bananafactory]

I'm looking forward to BronsonLee's review more than I am actually watching the movie myself

 

[Tatsumaki Senpuukyaku!]

Was he directly responsible for that tbh?

He took an awful lot of credit for it during the promotion for the movie but now you hear much less about his involvement.

 

[broncobuster]

Was he directly responsible for that tbh?

No. Johns is as responsible for GL as Kevin Feige is for Blade 3 or X-Men 3.

lol, that's a great response

warcraft deserved better

 

[GAMEPROFF]

BronsonLee has to post his review in GermanGAF in dutch!

 

[Discotheque]

It was ridiculous that he wasn't nominated for an Oscar. That movie wouldn't have been half as watchable without his performance.

should have dropped benedict cumberbatch or bradley cooper for a gylenhaal nomination. those two didn't deserve shit that year for their films.

wew lad

lol. Warcraft prolly my favorite blockbuster of the summer after Star Trek Beyond. but yeah...it's a cruel summer. even Jason Bourne sucked.

 

[Lights and Waves]

Two hours until my screening/the US premiere of SS! I hope it doesn't flop tbh.

 

[bananafactory]

You bring nothing but the hottest of takes, and also are the only one I'm sure isn't in Disney's pocket

just wait, this will go down to low 20s.

Not a chance! Impossible

[kswiston]

How much do you see it making?

I don't really have a specific number in mind, but probably Men in Black 3 numbers worldwide at least. I dont really buy the $800M to break even rumours.

Wonder Woman RT score 27% confirmed!

My finest hour was vanity searching, finding that, then being dumb for like 5 minutes in there before making an ill-advised post in the DCOT that came off way meaner than it intended to

lol. Warcraft prolly my favorite blockbuster of the summer

the fuck

You bring nothing but the hottest of takes, and also are the only one I'm sure isn't in Disney's pocket

My takes are fiery, like this money from Disney I'm burning right now
