From the marketing. Batman, Joker are the most popular characters in DC. Harley is up there too. Way more popular than the transformers name before the movies came out. Even after the transformer movies came out Batman and the Joker are bigger names and SS was marketed showcasing them.

love the sig 😄

People I know who asked me about this film to a man assumed that Joker was the main villain since he's been featured in so much of the ads as well as the music videos and media coverage about Leto's pranks on set while getting in character for Joker. Joker and Batman are known commodities to the viewing public at large, particularly in a post The Dark Knight/Heath Ledger world. It makes good business sense to showcase Joker like WB did, but it's some used car salesman level ethics considering what you actually get in this film.

I think Jared Leto assumed Joker was a main character also.

Transformers has a huge name though. And almost everyone loved the first movie.

Where did Suicide Squad build a brand name from?

I actually preferred the second one, solely because Optimus was less of a ***** in it.

I don't know. Maybe I was following it too much, but Joker was never going to be the main villain. But the actual team was the ones heavily marketed. Joker was mainly going to be attached to Harley.

^^^ Nope.

Besides the countless TV spots and trailers spotlighting Joker, Batman and Harley, we also have 2 music videos featuring Joker and magazine covers.

👆 thx

Everyone had their own photo. Doesn't change the fact that the marketing was heavily focused on the team, not Joker.

There's an entire album, actually. Footage from the movie used in at least a couple of others.

Yeah, it's called a soundtrack. 😖hifty: Movies tend to have them.

DCEU got Lil Wayne'd.

It's a curse that not even Zatanna, Fate and Constantine are ready for.

They also got Queened. Queen>>Little Wayne/21 Pilots

It's LIL Wayne, you forget that 😂

Rick Ross is just as bad, if not worse.

^ Now THIS is what everyone will think of SS. Good job, Golgo 😄

Nah, the Queen trailer totally overshadows that.

I didn't know you were into that type of thing, Stilt. 😂 Yikes.

Wow I've lost my lunch thanks for posting floppy black titties

He is the embodiment of the entire Squad!

Not really. I'm open to a lot of music types. Classic rock is my fav. 🙂
