Suicide Squad is getting panned and hearing that made my day.
I’m glad someone finally admitted that they want certain movies to fail.
Well, yes. I hate the “2edgy4u” direction DC’s films are going in under the Dark Lord Snyder, and the sooner it fails, the sooner they have to reboot it all and hopefully not be embarrassed by the comic source material.
The edginess doesn’t bother me because for one they have to tonally differentiate themselves from Marvel. Secondly, if the writing is good it wouldn’t matter if it were dark or was even more lighthearted than Marvel films. I definitely agree with Dark Lord Dudebrah. After BvS it’s almost like jumping into a cauldron of magma to hire him again but if anything DC needs some new people making the executive decisions. They are the root of the issue.
Critically, Zach Snyder’s Superman movies have been flops, but financially they’ve done great. In the eyes of the producers, there’s no need to switch it up.
Especially in the home release market. Haven’t actually looked up the numbers, but I’ve seen pictures of proud Snyder fans with several copies (the regular Blu, the steelbook, the other steelbook, the 4k, the 3d, the Target exclusives, the Amazon exclusives, etc.) which is insane no matter what movie it is.
