I couldn't care any less why the White Dragon has an interdimensional portal in his shitty house. It's a fantastic gag and the imagery looks great, especially when the Dragon looks villainous surrounded by a bunch of neo Nazis in pillowcases.

It wasn’t as relentlessly miserable as grimdark Superman action, but the Snyder movies were generally better overall. Suicide Squad was just a dumb, stupid, lazy, mess.
Shut up, Mr. Burton! You were not brought upon this world to get it!

I'm sad they didn't have focus on Vigilante for that.

So apparently a JL scene featuring affleckBatman was filmed for the finale (with a double wearing the suit) but it was cut for reasons unknown. There’s photos of the guy in the fitting room wearing the suit, so it appears legit.
I’m sure it has something to do with Warners perennial reluctance to let anyone do anything with Batman without a year’s worth of committee meetings first.

I have no idea how they managed to fuck up batman so badly. It boggles the mind.
They literally took every wrong lesson about the Nolanverse movies, then took every wrong lesson about building a cinematic universe, and then turned it into a college course on running a franchise into the ground.
There’s also the plant lady! She’s mad about global warming! And Two-Face! Driven mad by the absurdities of the justice system! And Harley Quinn! A doctor who went crazy trying to help mentally-ill people in a healthcare system that seems designed to fail the most needy! And— uh . . . hang on, are these supposed to be the bad guys? And we’re rooting for the violent trust-fund baby to punch them? Are . . are we the baddies?
At least there’s the crocodile guy, he’s gotta be a total heel, right? Beat that guy up, for sure. What’s that? He was an abused child and sold into slavery? I thought that was Bane’s origin story? Oh, both of them? Wow. Damn. Next thing you’ll tell me Dr. Freeze is actually a good guy wronged by the system. They killed his fucking wife?? Christ. Okay. Okay.
I’ve never seen SS1 and im not counting it as canon because it’s supposed to be terrible
It's the worst. It's so bad that it actually curves back around to educational on just What. Not. To. Do. When it comes to movie making.
And so many of it's choices are own goals too & you can fix the entire "fight Superman" idea by having Waller stop outside and remark on how dumb the generals were to buy that argument. Starting in media res/during an op could have let you establish all the needed info and ground rules, ontop of not being boring as piss. Actually, I take that back. Pissing is less boring than the keys introduce every character 3 fucking times with the most hackneyed song choices possible they pulled.
So on so forth.
It's really bad, and deserves to be roundly mocked every time it comes up

Also they could have done the entire mission with just Diablo. He was so OP they didn’t need anything else. Just Flagg getting Diablo into position and telling him to go at it. Movie’s over in 10 minutes.

An idea I was kicking around would have been for one of the people to ask about how to deal with Superman, and her saying that was above his paygrade, and then talk about the Squad as a completely deniable black ops team.
As for the mission, it would have been much lower stakes. their mission would have been to extract someone codenamed ragdoll. Waller would then be betrayed over a mcguffin and the twist would be the Squad was extracting Waller, because she saw the betrayal coming, and the only people she could trust that she knew the traitors wouldn't know or care about would be the squad (a brief standoff with Flagg over where his loyalties lie) and so on.

I think my favorite exchange of the entire series, or at least one of them, was
him jumping on the old man's ass about the coterie of supervillains, just all "I'm fighting a psychotic clown who fucking murders people, I'm gonna stick him in jail over and over!" Then an episode later he's telling kids how he used two rocket launchers on fucking Kite Man
Interesting that Stroma needed to stay in Vigilante accent in the gag reel, it's gotta be tough to try to speak constantly in an accent that is by definition unnatural to you

I enjoyed Peacemaker.
That said, I need help. The guy who plays the male detective is a That Guy for me. He's in something I recognize him rfom but I'e scoured his IMDB and Wikipedia page and can't figure it out. In my mind he's playing a goofy frat guy or something.

Peacemaker is good.
He's got more than 250 credits over 30 years. Probably easier to ask what shows he hasn't been in.

Apparently, Stroma stayed in his American accent so much that John Cena didn't know that Stroma was British until after they wrapped.

I don't know how to handle this. My guilty pleasure has always been 80's cheese rock. The end credits song from Peacemake is like... the apotheosis of it.

It's fucking awesome and not ironically
Almost perfect. It needs a similar to Opening Credits choreography by principal cast, and it'd be the best thing going.
The only thing I have a question about for the opening credits, is was it Freddy Stroma under the the Vigilante outfit or not. It's not like he needed to be there, as the entire sequence is him fully masked up. But there's a commitment to doing that while wearing the full suit, which often aren't built with full mobility or perception in mind. Everyone else is in street clothes, except Cena wearing a helmet, and Judomaster's cameo at the end.
While trying to find a definitive answer (I did not), I stumbled on two bits of information.
First, there's a reason there was a clip earlier in the thread of Alan Tudyk doing some of the dance sequences. That's because Charissa Barton (the choreographer) is his wife, and she wanted to have someone with no real aptitude for dance test out things.
That's an almost frighteningly talented choreographer

Since finishing Peacemaker, I decided to go back and watch The Suicide Squad again for the first time since it released. I have to say, with the hindsight of the series now, Peacemaker definitely seems like a more sympathetic character than how I originally saw him. There were hints of him being sympathetic to his team in the movie and wanting to fit in, but he just didn’t quite have the right crew yet. I also picked up more on how conflicted he seemed near the end in the decisions he made.
I don’t know, TSS was already a great movie, but I guess I was surprised how much better it actually became in context with the show.
