Arrow did a Suicide Squad two-parter that was way better than the film.

Yeah, that was in one of the earlier seasons, right? I stopped watching around season four.

Two or three I think.

That was before DC Films told CW to stop using the SS characters for its film. Because it would "ruin" them for movie goers.

Granted I'm only thirty minutes in, but it's remarkable how much better DC's animated Suicide Squad film (the awesome one where they have to break in to Arkham) is than the live action one. Like, they should have just used the same script as that one and added a few scenes to extend the run time to more of a blockbuster length. That movie would have been fucking great.

I'm going to watch Doctor Strange right now.

Do you just hate fun? Because Baby Driver was fun as hell.

Here's the thing. I love fun movies. I enjoy mindless ish from time to time. But when the dialogue is as bad as it was in Baby Driver it took me out of the scene time and time again as I physically shook my head in the theater. And I like all of Wright's other stuff. I was expecting to like it. It was corny as hell.

Is there anyone out there with me on this?? I honestly cannot for the life of me figure out why so many people liked it. I need a support group.

I was the same way on Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation...everybody loved it, I hated it.

In the end, enjoying films is a subjective process. Certainly there are objective characteristics of a film that you can say were strong or weak or whatever, but in the end....."did you like it or not" is subjective.

Oh for sure. Clearly it's all a big who cares pot of subjectivity. This one is just such a huge outlier in my brain. I get why people hate Mulholland Drive when it's easily top 3 all time for me. I hate musicals but I can rationalize the appeal. But mannnn, Baby Driver clearly sucked and all you fools loved it.

Enjoying films should be objective like naming children.

There are things movies can have that are universally good (great acting, monologues, atmosphere) and things they can have that we can all agree are fucking stupid, like...rehashed plot points, illustrating wormholes by poking a pencil through a piece of paper (this used to be fine) and Keanu Reeves.

Same as we should all be able to agree that made up kids names are fucking lame and lot of these names that millenials are naming their kids are going to cause them to be weak fucking pussies.

My parents fucking hated it.

I loved it. Dialogue sucked, still loved it.

Korvin is a pink kitten and we don't really like to talk about ages in our house. He can be whatever age he wants to be and we're supportive of that.

The conveyor belt of generic bad guys that were easily dispatched (except for captain flags pussy ass that got beaten up by them) turned me off completely to suicide squad. I thought I was going to like it going on because I thought the trailer was excellent.

His brother Kendry wouldn’t appreciate these guys mocking him.

What are some of the lamest names your friends have named their kids?
