New The Suicide Squad poster
- Thread starter Theorry
- Start date
It's a loose sequel/semi-reboot. They're taking some of the characters and knowing Gunn basically dropping everything else. Aside from some of the characters returning I wouldn't expect the movies to be remotely similar.
Aye, Gunn said as much when he tweeted out the poster in the first place.
Its from James Gunn who made the Guardians of the Galaxy movies.
It's basically a reboot.
I hope it's very silly. Not only because I think that that's the only way a Suicide Squad movie can work, but also because in these grimdark times, I need something to lift my spirits
So, are we setting up a dead pool for this?
I say Robbie, Cena, Kinnaman and that Shark person make it out alive.

Calling it now, Polka Dot Man will "die" but later be revealed to have survived.
It's not like Suicide Squad needs continuity. Its a movie about a bunch of super criminals sent to resolve a conflict. As long as some characters from the previous movie reappear, and characters that died previously stay dead, it would still count as a sequel.
That title though, I'm sure it won't be confusing. Not at all. (especially when you have to translate it to other languages, that don't use things like "the").
Meh, they just pivoted to expanding the idea of the DC "multiverse".
That way they can salvage what there is to salvage, they wouldn't have to de-canonize the (pretty successful) CW shows.
I expect it to be great, but man if this movie isn't the weirdest thing ever lmao. Same title as the last one but with entirely new characters except Margot Robbie returning as Harley Quinn. Will this share any continuity with the previous SS movie or nah? So confusing.
Not sure if I'm ready to watch a Suicide Squad movie without El Diablo. Man was the emotional core of the first film. Does the concept even work without him?
lol
lol
Whatever works, I guess. It's held this long.
???
Amanda Waller, Captain Boomerang, Rick Flagg were all in the first one. I can't tell if you're being sarcastic.
It shares several cast members. Harley, Flagg, Waller, Boomerang, possibly another.
As for connecting, yeah that is confusing. This appears to be a soft reboot of sorts, but the door was left open for Smith's Deadshot (originally Elba was rumored to be a recast) so it's likely "connected" but taking the characters in a different way.
