You've quoted tweets for Civil War, Ultron e.t.c. saying SS is ahead of them all.

clearly Suicide Squad is the film that DCEU needs right now, but not the one we all deserve.. 😛 but seriously though, do you just want the film to be really good and hopefully head the DCEU in the right direction?

Awesome trailer.

Of course.

And that's what WB should want more than box office. They need goodwill, not box office right now. With goodwill the box office will come later.

Very much Will Smith's movie according to that interview...

I was wondering how they got him to sign on to this over the Independence Day sequel.

If you would've told me a year ago that a movie with lesser known characters like Katana/Deadshot would be a better movie than Dawn of Justice I would've laughed. Now it looks like that will certainly be the case, I can't wait to see this one

I believe more money.. it was rumored that Will Smith overpriced himself for the ID4 sequel... but who knows maybe he just didn't want to do it,

Is that funeral scene the one from BvS? If so that would mean this takes place after BvS.

🙁

Well I did a frame comparison from the funeral scene in BvS and the one shown in the Suicide Squad Comic Con trailer today and it is indeed the same scene.

So now we know for sure this movie takes place after BvS, minus the flashback scenes.

According to IMDB this movie won't have a Chinese release.

Now this, to me, is a sign that they're learning. They managed to give you a decent dose of the kind of action you can expect, but without showing too much, like they did with the Batman vs Superman trailers. This film really looks like it could be shaping up to be the one that genuinely puts the DCEU on the right track.

Really?

Well then Zack's prediction of this out grossing BvS is out of the window.

It won't matter if it doesn't equal BvS numbers, as long as it gets mass positive reaction from critics and fans. As you yourself have mentioned, if people like this film and really get on board with this universe, they'll make plenty of money down the line.

Basically, it's more important that this film is a win with fans and critics than a win at the box office. However, if this film does end up being really good, it's going to make me hate Snyder even more.

Henry is a lucky man. Margot signing his shirt. Probably hit that, too.

He just wants to be connected with a good DC movie for once.

Of course. Was just noting that Golgo's prediction of SS possibly outgrossing BvS almost certainly won't happen if that's true.

HAHA That was a good one on Smith.

SS can still outgross it domestically. And it's not confirmed yet if it's going to be released in China. At least not that I heard of.
