Suicide Squad 2 to be directed by James Gunn

[Wor-Gar]

Belts hold up the world.

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

Hulk wore a belt in the 90s when he was smart. Maybe it's a sign of intelligence, because regular Hulk never wore a belt.

But isn't he a Man-Shark...?

Or are you saying he's a Shark-Man?

According to Waller, "Actually, he's full shark."

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

A full shark?

That means his actual super power is that he can wear pants with a matching belt.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Never go full shark.

 

[Asta]

His origins are still a mystery according to the DC Database:

Nanaue's amphibious physiology is rumored to come from a variety of sources. Nanaue himself insists that his father is the "Shark God". Others state that he is a "Wild Man", a race of humanoid animals. Government officials state that he is nothing more than a "savage mutation" of a genetic experiment gone wrong.

His powers:

• Amphibious Nature: King Shark can survive indefinitely under water and for long periods of time on land.
• Claws: Super-strong claws.
• Fangs: Super-strong teeth.
• Superhuman Strength: Monstrous strength, the exact limits of which have never been measured.
• Superhuman Stamina: King Shark, when driven to a frenzy (such as when there is blood in the water), is nearly unstoppable
• Animal Empathy: King Shark was able to sense and call out to his shark "cousins" to come to him, although he is unable to actually control them, especially when they are filled with blood frenzy.[8]

Sharknado > KS

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

The leader of the Street Shark also wore a belt with pants and cowboy boots.

While dumb, they were also capable of "swimming" on solid concrete...hence the name, "street sharks."

It makes for a cool visual. Very Michael Bay.

His powers:

I like that his "super powers" is just the description of a regular shark.

Well, I think we can all agree that DC chose the inferior shark character for this movie. Should have been this guy.

Then there would be very little belt controversy. And imagine the Hot Toys figure *drool*

Concrete shark is actually pretty frightening lol

Street Sharks could kick King Shark's ass. But Street Frogs? Not so sure.

Be good Suicide Squad members, though.

However BW > WW84 for 3 reasons:

1. Better snapier dialogue and a few character interactions with feels.
2. Better/More action.
3. BW didn’t rape a guy.

Well defending WW84 over BW is not a hill I am going to die on

The humor in this movie was really bad.

Yep

KS has almost ruined JAWS for me that’s how much he sucked lol

Oh no!!!

 

[TurdFurgusonsHat]

How is it when I trash TSS, everyone comes for me? Then when Jye and Jaws trash it, people don't say anything. WTF?

That's what true power feels like.

Jye and Jaws. You guys decide who is who...

Just watched the original SS for the rest time in 2-3 years. Wow I forgot how much I enjoy that film. Now I like it even more after TSS, lol. The dialogue is so much better! Not surprising considering Ayer wrote the script for Training Day and isn't a one-joke pony. Harley is awesome in this movie! Super hot and even though she's pretty chatty throughout she is in no way abrasive. Man did they screw up her character with BoP and TSS. Also she doesn't do anything that an actual human couldn't do.

The narrative definitely moves at lightspeed (too much so in parts) and is pretty choppy but that doesn't stop it from being two solid hours of "cool." There really isn't a bad or boring or cringy scene IMO and it does have some genuine feels toward the end. Okay the Enchantress stuff is definitely silly and her "trying to remove her pants without using her hands" dance did elicit a chuckle but I can write that off as being part of the fun "Warriors meets Fifth Element" vibe of the overall movie. I do like the gritty feel throughout and the cinematography is leaps and bounds better than TSS. I was also surprised to realize that the original soundtrack is far superior to Gunn's version.

The only thing I liked better in TSS is the lack of a skybeam and Rick Flagg. He is definitely cooler in TSS since the majority of SS he looks like he's about to cry, lol.

I was even able to enjoy Joker more thanks to ZSJL.

Ok... I thought I was the only one that does not think this film is the train wreck others make it out to be. I actually liked it fine the first time I saw it. The 2nd time I tried I was tired and could no finish it but due to being tired I was not enjoying it and thought maybe I was wrong the first time. But with my 3rd viewing I was fully entertained for the most part.

After lettering TSS site and digest for a bit I def like the first one better and agree with all points you made.. Hell I just said much of that at lunch today to a friend who saw the film with me last night.

SS gets way too much hate IMO. Its not that bad. Its not great movie making but I like the darker and more serious tone. Ending is a little weak and I hate Enchantress but the first 1.5 hours are solid IMO.

I did not mind Harley in BoP... Its another side of her that we do get to see once in a while in the TV show and comics.. But she should have gone back to the joker and had more of that edge like the first film.

I posted late last night my initial feelings... Maybe they got missed

 

[matticus]

I wonder if King Shark beats his Prince Sharks with that belt?
