I saw Suicide Squad, and it was hilarious. Don't expect a serious film, it was ridiculous for a reason.
Thanks for the warning. :yay:

After watching Birds of Prey mu expectations for Suicide Squad lowered a lot.

To be fair I am pretty sure BoP was the DCCU Executives continued attempt to market smaller scaled movie projects by throwing in Harley Quinn since without her or someone of popularity being on screen the movies would have been too niche to draw in larger audiences. It would have been like if Marvel Executives decided that Guardians of The Galaxy would have been too niche to be a popular big draw movie so they would throw in Iron man to boost up hype and sell more seats. Of course this did not happen because Marvel had more confidence in their gamble working out. DC on the other hand just seems to be falling down an infinite staircase where they just sometimes catch themselves up for a bit before falling down the stairs again.

The new Suicide Squad is an instance of them catching themselves up a bit, sure enough through they will be falling down those stairs again soon with whatever half baked movie they have planned next.

Why did I watch Birds of Prey in the first place?
Inclusion?
The Story?
Because: hUuUuUrRrr HaRleY QuiNn?
Nope... this is why:

DC tries too hard and when they do, they blow-it big time.
I can't remember watching a bad Batman Movie, (except the Val Kilmer one)
And even then, with Birds of Pray, they deliberately reduced Elizabetg's screentime on purpose.
There's no comparison between what Elizabeth can do and what Margot Robbie does:

Just saying that DC should do better at casting actresses and writing interesting/compelling stories and less forced inclusion and less "go gurl power" shit
 
Last movie I've seen is V/H/S. It's basically a compilation of short horror films interwoven into a meh overarching story. The second movie is better for sure but this one shows ingenuity in filmmaking in terms of adapting ideas to the found footage genre.
Quick summary: Guys go into a house and watch creepy scary vhs tapes and bad things happen.
 
Watched Late Night again for the third time the other day...

Regular people in shallow-as-fuck situations working in jobs they know deep down are insidious but tell themselves they're making some kind of positive contribution. It's funny, a bit cringe-worthy, silly and unbelievable at times, and somehow kinda great.
