The Suicide Squad Film Follies

Flaming Carrot is one of the funniest comics I've ever read. And it still holds up.

"They cloned Hitler's feet!"

holy cow: http://www.amazon.com/Flaming-Carrot-Comics-Mystery-Collected/dp/1569712638 is this stuff really all out of print/unavailable? :(

it hasn't been fashionable in forever so that's not too surprising to me. he made so goddamn many pages of comics!

Oh way, Free Comic Book Day is tmrw, maybe the local shop will have a trade on sale

Why does Will Smith look like shaft with a cowboy hat?

I just realized that the new Joker is like literally

is this a Faygo advert

That's so much worse than the Joker photo

Harley Quinn looks like the people who hand out shots at Rockstar Mayhem fest.

everybody else look like either extras from Battlefield Earth or ex-members of Hollywood Undead.

Will Smith actually is the best in the pic

I mean that pic screams "1999" to me

lol but always good to see adewale akinnuoye-agbaje tbh

Glossy Slipknot

One way or another this is going to be incredible

they look like six flags employees on halloween night, good planning

man the Atlanta Braves really do have a new look in 2015

Time Warner really doesn't seem to get how to do this

O____O

Clive Barker's Suicide Squad

Cenobite deez nuts

ilx is the place I come to to escape the deez nuts

wellllllllll good luck with that

I'm sure style and visual design is one of many categories this film will fail miserably at.

but after seeing the Batman v Superman trailer and knowing Zak Snyder that one will probably be more aggravating

Harkness' ankle boomerang holster duct-taped to his leg seems an interesting choice.

Here's Deadshot's mask, which will be see on screen for what, 15 seconds?

Disappointed that there's no yellow in his costume, but the muted crimson banana clips are nice.

I'm still curious whether Will Smith will play him as Floyd Lawton or as Will Smith, but I ain't holding my breath. At this point, if the flick gets more people interested in and reading and flowing some small royalty stream to Ostrander et al for 80's Suicide Squad, it'll be good enough.

Also, movie-Harley's outfit is far less stupid than her current Nu52 get-up, at least.

if the flick gets more people interested in and reading and flowing some small royalty stream to Ostrander et al for 80's Suicide Squad,

under Diane Nelson?

and yup, that's a quote from John 14:6 on his costume & his rifle– 'Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.'

(depending on yer preferred translation)

under Diane Nelson?

I don't know, I'm grabbing at straws here.

xp are you kidding me...

So like, did WB execs LIKE ayer's Sabotage, or had they signed him for this before seeing his previous Rando Eccentric Antiheroes With Guns movie?

when the best thing you have to say about costume design is that you like the "muted crimson banana clips"

Yeah, the costume/makeup design is straight-up pathetic. The Arrow/Flash stuff isn't a whole lot better, but those are television shows with television show budgets. It's noteworthy that a fan in a homemade costume who was photographed near the set was initially mistaken for Will Smith in his Deadshot duds.

it looks so stupid, and then you have the white mask on top of it.

the design for katana is particularly tone deaf; the late-era nu-shi "hey, she's from japan let's put a japanese flag on her face" look is all kinds of dumb
not that the character has ever had strong design to begin with

the outsiders were a special level of final fantasy poor costume design... remember looker?

the white mask on top of it.

deadshot morelike headshot amirite

they just didn't have to make it look like a baseball glove got thrown in with the bleach cycle

and yes, the Outsiders were pretty terrible designs all around. katana has had much better looks, tho!

They have desaturated away any possible desire to see this thing.

After she saw the pictures of Will Smith floating around, I told my girlfriend that the upcoming Suicide Squad and Flash movies have nothing to do with the shows she enjoys. Befuddlement, as predicted. Congratulations, DC and Warner Brothers!

see i would respect that! but they just split several bad differences and came up with something worse than the sum of its parts.

exactly

ok i love looker's costumer there except 1. armpit chain which looks dredfully ticklish at best 2. cape is not actually symmetrical
but otherwise reminds me of the best costume design of all time aka BUDDY COLE'S SOFTBALL UNIFORMS

idk who the fuck the fucks in that film lineup are
no comic book cred at all sorry
except harley quinn whose wiki i read & was like 'damn this lady is mad unprofessional for someone with a phd'
also pretty sure she just got raped into being crazy??? that level of characterization
i miss cesar romero :(

harley quinn is paul dini's character iirc and she works best as a cartoonish gunmoll rather than what she's become via videogames and fanservice which joker but with breasts

finally figured out what that promo pic reminded me of
http://www.rhfhouston.com/Homiesqu.jpg

i would SO be into a Homies movie
will smith tumbling out of a vending machine

harley works best playing kazoo taps during the joker's funeral for the apparently dead batman and bursting into earnest tears, not sure where that falls.
