Suicide Squad Movie

If there's one thing the DCEU has done amazingly over its competition, it's the portrayal of female characters.

Faora is completely armor-clad, Wonder Woman's design is far more practical while still holding true to her traditional costume (though I'd still personally like a more brighter bronze), Katana shows a bit of skin but in a fairly reasonable manner, Harley's overt sexiness works in a "Joker's damaged goods" sort of way, and Enchantress manages to make running around in a bikini look genuinely creepy.

Did you see the new clip with Enchantress? Looks like she has another form as well.

I did not, actually. Link?

Hm, quite interesting how that "other form" looks. Far more brighter and revealing, but still covered in the markings that make her darker form look corpse-like.

New footage.

You can find that and all the others on the page before the previous page of the thread.

Edit: actually, here's the full playlist

Edit 2: Seems it's actually the final trailer.

Deadshot:

While we knew the MPAA rated Suicide Squad a PG-13.

The BBFC gave Suicide Squad a 15

The rating is for sustained threat and moderate violence.

Most superhero movies in the UK get a rating of 12 or 12A.

Is that sustained threat Letoker?

I wonder if Katana's sword still takes souls in this continuity.

If you're being serious and don't mind spoilers that have been all over the marketing... yes.

I was being serious, and your sentence kind of makes it obvious what the word you're spoiler tagging is.

Her sword has dead ethereal ghost/soul things coming out of it in the trailers, the magic soul-stealing sword has been confirmed for months now.

I write really weird sentences. You'll never know what the spoilered word is.

Here's Harley if you're into that sorta thing:

So she's definitely working with Joker. Surprise surprise.

A whopping .5 seconds more Batman!

Enchantress:

ANCIENT COMEDIC DEFORMITY

VILLAIN OF OUR HEARTS

BORN TO MAKE STORIES GREAT

Your Joker.

Edit: Oh look. Purple Lamborghini is out too.

Still not really feeling Enchantress's look (I actually think that the "clean/regal" look from her character spot a few days back looks much better). BUT, that transformation sequence is delightfully creepy, and I don't think that I've seen a transformation sequence done in quite that way on-film before.

Also lol to the women crossing herself, that was funny.

That Enchantress spot is very cool. Hadn't really been interested in the character before but now I am. I guess she's one of the good guys on the team?

Well, I wouldn't really say good guy. The doctor is nice and good but the witch...

The doctor being the person possessed by the witch? (Now I'm vaguely remembering what I've read about the character)

Wonder if we could get Etrigan in a future film.

Rumor says she is the first one deployed to check out the situation and ends up turning against them. The rest of the Squad is organized as a last resort. It makes some sense, considering that being some sort of elemental creature she wouldn't be coerced by the likes of an Explosive Leash like the rest of the squad.

I liked the clip too, there is a real sense of "other-worldliness" to both the performance and how those in the board room react to her.

As for Leto's Joker, I was not opposed to the new version but was not heavily impressed with what we've seen so far. But there was one clip in that spot that suddenly got me invested. It's a small thing, but a shot of him throwing off his jacket with a serious look (he has a shoulder gun holster and wearing a purple shirt before jumping into that pit). Joker ultimately needs to be more than crazy, which is what the trailers have been showing, but capable of an explosive violence that even Batman struggles to handle.
