Re: DC's "Suicide Squad" (August 5th, 2016)

He was good.

It's funny.

I remember this pic being posted when Affleck was cast as the Caped Crusader. Then again with Gadot. And then again with Fresh Prince.

Affleck, flat out owned the role and kicks ass.

Smith, turned a B character into an A.

Gadot, WOW!!! Sure, Gina Carano looks the part, but acting isn't her speciality and there is no way she could pull off an accent.

Very well said! Only for me, I wanted Jaimie Alexander as WW, cause she kills it as Sif. Physically, acting not so much lol.

at the end of the day you are getting PAID to do a JOB... this is not a hobby. this is not done on charity.

Imagine a salesman hired to sell shirts and pants, and some of the clothes are not as great, imagine that guy started to scream about the quality of the clothing....

I know the directors technically made the movie and not sold it, but it was not their property. actors and directors get hired to not only make a product but to also sell it.
thats the whole point of the press tour, they sell the product they made.

Ayer is just STILL on the Job... the job is not done once the movie is over. Trank did the equivalent of taking the ugly clothes and ripping them in front of the customers...

Imagine if spoke people for pepsi went on tv and told everyone about teeth decay :lol

you are hired to help create a product and you make it and then you sell it. then the job is over. (thats why actors and directors tell the truth years later)

even if the movie sucks as an actor or director you just HaVE to support it.... thats why you get paid millions of dollars.

:exactly: :lecture :exactly:

teeth decay :lol

he's disgusted because the character in the movie was his sister (in the movie the sister keeps trying to get into Capt America's pants :lol ) really good movie, very funny. a lot of raunchy humor:

Joker is basically Manson, the tattoos, the Grill, the chains, the lipstick... the suit.

Die Antwoord is such a drama queen, it doesn't even look like him at all :lol

It's a LOT more complex than that.
Director's are indeed doing a "job", but like any artist (not factory worker) you will be judged by the creative integrity of final product and that in the long term can drastically effect the rest of your career. It's money clashing with art. Film reviewers think they are art reviewers, studios think they are a business (with sprinklings of artist integrity, but only if it's financially sound).
It's whether you can pay your tax bills in 5 years time. Not some "hobby" as you mentioned. It's the real world kid. So watching from the shadows while a studio potentially destroys your artistic vision is a dangerous thing. Because in several months time you will be asked to go and sell whatever piece of **** THEY have created. Those sneaky committee cutting fingers disappear into the woodwork and you are left to take the rap. It's your vision, except it's not. very dangerous not just on this movie, but on your next project your career. Thats a very careful line to walk, play good dog with the studios or try to protect your own invested interests. There is no right and wrong move in a situation like this as it is just that, very situational. What Trank did was stupid, he wasn't in a position to act like a petulant spoilt brat, and he came across as just that. But if he had played ball with the studio the movie would have still tanked and he would have been labelled as a hack. It's lose lose. And before you start talking about the amount of money directors get paid and that it's a city baby response, it's not.
Sure you get paid a **** load of money on a project, but you may not work again for a couple of years on a feature and if your project flops and is destroyed by a studio, you take the rap financially. Directors for the most part are studio scape goats in this day and age. Unless you hit a certain level, but even JJ had holy war with Disney behind the scenes on SW.

Anyway my point being, your analogy to doing a job is not accurate. Just like musicians fight with record labels it's about artist product being misrepresented to the public and the LONGTERM ramifications of that. Play ball take the cash and have a short ****** career or fight the system, speak publicly and risk being blacklisted by the studio. Generally going against the studio is slow motion suicide.

Ayer made his decision and he got lucky, the movie has made $$$$$$. But if it had not the studios would have blamed him, the movie was critically panned and his name dragged professionally through the mud. That **** does matter in the real world because it's as real as getting fired from a job, in front of 100 million people, getting the next job is not so easy.

It's a gamble pure and simple, it worked for Ayer, lets see how Gareth Edwards gets on.. it may not be so rosy.
Or Snyder's JL. Big box office? doesn't matter about who did what, perceivable flop.. blame the director.

Ass-biscuits served two ways.

Totally agree. I think the rewatchability of SS is going to be off the charts due to it's fun, endearing, and even poignant vibe from beginning to end, it's lightning quick two hour running time, and lack of any real negatives to speak of. The only things I didn't particularly care for were Incubus' design and the slight discomfort at some of Harley's backstory suggesting that she was molested by the prison guards. Every other "flaw" was academic and had no impact on my enjoyment of the film.

I liked Incubus body, just his silly weapon x head piece that I didn't like. :lol

The jye love is strong in this thread. He will now become the tent-pole that will keep this thread head-and-shoulders above the rest.

Believe me if the movie sucked I would've destroyed it in here, like I did with that POS ID4 sequel.

tine to add jye to the scoreboard :lol

:yess:

Team pturtle was not in my cards. :lol

Holy Debbie Harry Harley clone.
