Warner Bros Getting Sued For Suicide Squad Deleted Scenes !?!??

You heard me right, there is actually someone out there suing Warner Bros for missing Joker scenes in Suicide Squad. Are you kidding me right now? This is too good.

The person who is doing this is a reddit user by the name of BlackPanther2016. He calling it ‘false advertising,’ and compared it to going to a fast food chain, ordering a burger as advertised and getting something different. He is fed up with Hollywood showing previews to movies and removing those scenes from the actual film. OK, so I understand the irritation on some level, but seriously, it’s not like it was not known by many that there would be some missing scenes in the movie. Though it wasn’t exactly said which ones until after (at least I didn’t hear which ones till the movie hit) But this wasn’t exactly a secret. Where has this guy been? Under a rock?

He also goes on to complain that he drove from Scotland to London to watch this movie, just to see those specific scenes of the Joker as shown in the previews. Right, like he really drove for those parts in particular? Ummmmmm really? I mean, most may argue that there are sooooooooooooooo many more things to see in the movie besides the Joker…. Like maybe Deadshot, Killer Croc, and Harley Quinn… But according to this dude, he wasted money driving and sitting through this movie to be disappointed that the sought after scenes were not in the movie. … And now he wants to sue. (He has nothing better to do…)

He watched the movie, left the theater angry and demanded his money back. They refused to give it to him, then escorted him out. So he is suing for his money back and the embarrassment of being laughed at while he was kicked out of the movie theater. Of course they were laughing, how can you walk in to a theater and leave a movie such as this, complaining that they were missing Joker scenes, which is something that we all knew about??

The scenes he went there specifically for were: when Joker banged his head on his car window, when Joker says, ‘let me show you my toys’ when Joker punches the roof of his car, when Joker drops a bomb with this face all messed up and says ‘bye bye,’ and he also says there was a couple of scenes with Katana that he wanted as well, her eyes going black, and the slow motion of her and her sword taking souls. His brother is a lawyer and submitted the case…. And it was ACCEPTED!!! WHAT!!!!! This is going to be a good laugh for sure.

If you are behind this dude, he is calling for those who are also tired of the falsely advertised scenes in the previews. He says “lets stop this nonsense of false bullsh***ery… and don’t let them bribe you with their ‘deluxe premium special director’s gold extended edition supreme cut’ nonsense” (omg is this guy for real??)

I’m sorry, if some of you feel the same way as this dude, then well I don’t know what to tell you. But really, it’s a movie, and I’m sure that when it comes out on DVD there will probably be a directors cut or extended version on the blue ray edition. And we will get to see the Leto/Joker and other deleted scenes there. But really, move on. It is what it is and there are other things in life much more important than if the scenes from the preview was not in the movie…. Plus, can I ask one question: How is it he drove 300 miles to London to watch a movie? Weren’t there other theaters closer to him? I mean, why go to that specific one so far away??? I don’t know, but this was just to funny to read about.

Deleted Scenes For Suicide Squad Leaked!!

 

suicide-squad-movie-characters-calendar

We all heard about how there were some issues for Jared Leto concerning all the deleted scenes from the movie. And after looking at these deletions, I side with the rock star. Now don’t get me wrong. I loooooooooooooooooooooooooved this move, having just seen it on Sunday the 7th, but the scenes may have given some more depth to other of the characters and story of this fantastic movie.

Now we all know that its pretty normal for the Hollywood biz to show trailers with extra scenes that may not be in the movie. But it seems that the trailer that was shown at San Diego Comic Con may have shown the movie to be much more dark than it is now, cutting out scenes to make the movie more fun. If you visit the reddit site, there is a person on there by the name of Naydawwg who posted the extended alternate cut of Suicide Squad that you may never see. And it seems to be a lot more than expected.

 

OK you guys, here is the list of what was deleted. (**SPOILER ALERT!**) Go watch the movie if you haven’t already and compare to the list below, and tell us what you think. I personally feel that more on the Croc would have been nice for sure, but regardless, after seeing the movie, I think I may go back and see it again one or two more times ^_^

you guys, here is the list of what was deleted. Go watch the movie f you haven’t already and compare to the list above, tell us what you think. I personally feel that more on the crock would have been nice for sure, but regardless, after seeing the movie, I think I may go back and see it again maybe one or two more times ^_^

There were of course some from the San Diego ComicCon release as explained before :

  • In early cuts, the movie’s opening detailed June Moon’s possession by Enchantress in real time. Reshoots reshuffled the scene to be later in the movie in flashback form in favour of a new opening centered on Deadshot.
  • Deadshot in the prison cell, watching the rain fall and thinking about his daughter.
  • El Diablo observing the flame of a lit match, before putting it out due to his vow to no longer use his powers.
  • El Diablo being escorted to a training center by being placed in a tube that fills with water to quel his flames, and then unceremoniously dropped onto the ground.
  • Early interviews showed Captain Boomerang’s racism and sexism, but the movie is light on examples of such behaviour, which have apparently been deleted. Most of them were reportedly directed at Katana, to whom Boomerang is attracted to.
  • Early reports indicated more backstory for Killer Croc, revealing that he entire life as a social outcast due to his physical appearance and has convinced himself that he is beautiful in his own way. Croc crossed paths with Batman while working as muscle-for-hire for numerous Gotham’s crime bosses, while secretly planning to take over one day. There were also scenes displaying his affinity for making sculptures out of discarded materials. Aside from jokes about Croc viewing himself as ‘beautiful,’ one of these were retained in the final cut.”
  • Also deleted was a scene where he becomes sick at the helicopter escort to Midway City, throws up half-digested pieces of goat, and then eats them again, disgusting the nearby Navy Seals.
  • Early cuts reportedly included a passing reference to Slipknot a being serial rapist, likely to further paint him as unsympathetic to the audience ahead of his own death.
  • More scenes of Rick Flag and June Moon’s romantic relationship, including him reading the files of the Suicide Squad recruits after Waller delivers them to him.
  • Another scene where Flag and Moon are out on a date.
  • Extended scene of Joker interrogating Captain Griggs, including the line, “I can’t wait to show you my toys,” which was in every trailer, but was removed from the movie.
  • Joker and his men escaping after shooting up a restaurant. Harley, who is already affiliated with the Joker, follows them on a motorcycle and intercepts their car. Joker bangs his head against the glass in frustration.
  • Joker and Harley then get into a fight, which ends with Harley pointing a gun at Joker’s head. Joker sweet-talks Harley into lowering the gun, charming her, then backhands her across the face. Afterwards he sweet-talks her again and they kiss.
  • Extended Ace Chemicals scene where Harley jumps into the chemicals. More bits of dialogue from Joker.
  • Extended Batmobile chase scene with more interaction between Joker and Harley. One of the examples, presented in all the trailers, is the Joker punching the roof of his car.
  • Harley using her baseball bat as a mock gun to play shoot at invisible foes.
  • Extended scene of Joker breaking into the nanobomb manufacture facility to arrange for Harley’s neck-bomb to be disabled.”
  • More interactions between Harley and Boomerang. Early cuts apparently included her really disliking him despite growing affectionate to all the other members of the squad.”
  • Extended bar scene with Harley taking everyone’s orders. Deadshot calls for a shot, Katana wants whiskey, Croc and Boomerang settle for beer, Harley asks Diablo wants and he prefers water which she jokes, “is a good idea.” The scene was featured in the trailers, but in the movie it cuts directly to Deadshot’s speech about them all almost pulling the mission off.”
  • Removed several scenes with the Joker to repaint his relationship with Harley as more loving rather than abusive.”
  • Joker and Harley get into an argument after he rescues her in the hijacked helicopter. In early cuts he reportedly pushes her out to kill her, then the helicopter gets shot down. This was apparently reworked into the helicopter getting shot down first and Joker pushing her out to save her.”
  • Joker returns during the final battle in the subway station, face half-burnt from the helicopter crash, which apparently leads to a brief altercation with the Squad. He calls for Harley to escape with him but she refuses for once in order to help her friends, and the Joker escapes after throwing a live grenade at the group to cover his own escape.”

Movies With Mitch – Suicide Squad Review

In the aftermath of the critical beating that DC’s Batman V. Superman received, many heralded David Ayer’s Suicide Squad as the franchises chance to finally compete with Marvels Cinematic Universe. Instead what we got is a convoluted mess of a film that fails to reach the aspirational goal of being a cheeky alternative to the copious amount of superhero movies that are out there.

Unlike those superhero films, this is all about the villains. An eclectic bunch of well-known faces (and some not-so-much, heres looking at you Slipknot) brought together by Government Big Boss Amanda Waller (Viola Davis). Who looks to use the rise and fall of Superman (Henry Cavill) to bring together a team of expendable bad guys for her Task Force X, or the Suicide Squad as they come to identify themselves.

Its in the opening when Waller recruits her rag-tag-team of criminals that the film really shines. We get some character exposition that while cheesy, gives way for two of the more developed characters of the story in Floyd ‘Deadshot‘ Lawton (Will Smith) and Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie) to roar into prominence, with the help of Ben Afflecks Batman cameo.

While Smith’s Deadshot is shown to be a devoted father whose assassin profession is out of necessity. Harley Quinn cuts a tragic figure as a former psychiatric doctor whose Arkham Asylum patient, the infamous Joker (Jared Leto), poisons her brain (both metaphorically and physically) before making her the Queen of his criminal Underworld empire. But like all tragic love stories, it ends in tears when the big-bad-Batman throws her in the clink.

What a killjoy.

Although Quinn’s back story treads familiar territory that fans of the lunatic will appreciate. Ayer is successful in painting his incarnation of Harley with shades of grey in regards to her unhealthy reliance on Leto’s Joker. A facet of her personality that weaves itself into the storyline when the Joker looks to break Harley free of her explosive bonds.

Despite those catchy Queen enthused trailers and marketing campaigns, fans of the Clown Prince of Crime will be disappointed with the distinct lack of Joker in the film. While his moments on-screen are few and far between, Leto does put a unique Gangster-Glossed-Stamp on the growing list of Joker incarnations. Complete with bountiful guns, violence and panache that leaves you wondering why he wasn’t the movies Big Bad whenever he saunters onto screen.

Wherein lies the overall problem with the film. It doesn’t make a lick of sense.

In an effort to avoid spoilers, the main villain (that would be the Villain that opposes the Villains) is so over-powered that it seems farcical that many of the Suicide Squad members would be tasked in bringing them down. After all, Harley Quinn is nothing but a psychopath with a bat, Captain Boomerang (Jai Courtney) does pretty much what it saids on the tin. While the aforementioned Slipknot (Adam Beach) is a purported expert in grappling and scaling … neat.

While its admirable that DC is willing to venture into the more comic booky annals when it comes to the supernatural bad guy. I can’t help but feel that these over-the-top characters would have been better served with a grounded storyline with a human baddie at its helm. Not only would it make sense for these characters to make it on the team but it would allow our protagonist to drive the film forward rather than the flashy CGI that dominates in the latter stages.

Ultimately Ayers biggest sin is the dodgy editing and poor plotting that see’s the action escalate to near world-ending stuff with little explanation. Thats all well and good, this is a Superhero film after all … well, kinda. But when Joel Kinnaman’s Rick Flag has to take a beat midway through just to catch everyone up, you begin to wonder if a key scene is lying on the cutting room floor somewhere.

DC fans will find solace in seeing Harley Quinn finally immortalised on the big screen alongside her “Puddin”. But with little new material ever apparent, Suicide Squad feels irrelevant right out of the gates, which is a shame given the wealth of characters that were exploited here and could have been better used elsewhere.

Ben Affleck’s Solo Batman Movie Is “An Option”

BMvSM_thumb1_5531967ed18374.61070044

Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice was released this month to a mixed response from fans and critics alike. Ben Affleck’s portrayal of Batman however has been almost universally noted as a highlight in Zack Snyder’s problematic DC Universe builder, brining a rejuvenated interest to the prospect of a Batfleck solo movie in the future.

In light of this, Patrick Whitesell of William Morris Endeavor was quick to revealed to The Hollywood Reporter that Affleck is “contracted to do at least Justice League One and Two, so at least three times wearing the cape;” noting that BVS being the first of three contractual DC appearances.

Whitesell further elaborated on rumours of a solo outing for Batfleck commenting that “there’s a script that he’s written that is a really cool [Batman] idea, so that’s out there as an option.

Ben Affleck will also make a cameo appearance in David Ayer’s Suicide Squad later this Summer, as a bunch of his Rogue Gallery alumni – including The Joker (Jared Leto), Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie) and Deadshot (Will Smith) – raise hell as part of the US Governments Black-Ops team.

Justice League Part One is currently scheduled to hit the big screen in November 17, 2017 with Part Two to follow shortly after in June 14, 2019.
