| Okie_Loki said: I don't fully agree soundwave but you do make fair points. I liked Deadpool, it was funny. It had humor going for it. But let's compare villains since that was a common complaint for Suicide Squad and something I haven't heard for Deadpool. DP's was a generic "get back at the guy who created me" and the villain wasn't even all that interesting to add to that. He was a human with a little bit of restorative augments. SS technically had more than one villain and they were at least visually interesting to look at if nothing more. This is what I'm not understanding, it's almost as if with critics and some people that Suicide Squad never had a chance to begin with. |
The villian is the biggest problem with SS ... they should have thrown that out of the script 3/4 drafts ago.
A supernatural villian is allllllll wrong for this type of movie.
There's other bizarre things about the villian, like at one point she literally starts to move/dance like she's in a Michael Jackson music video ... it's just kinda like what the fuck is going on.
The CGI on her and her "brother" is really, really bad too. Not only is her character straight out of a Mummy film, but apparently their CGI is right from 1999 too.
Deadpool is a revenge flick but it fits tonally with the style of the film ... he's getting revenge on a fellow mutant who fucked him up, imagine if it was Count Dracula or Voldemort from Harry Potter or something ... that wouldn't work at all, that's basically what SS tries to do. Having a generic villian would've actually been a huge upgrade, a villian that doesn't belong in that style of movie is 10x more awkward.
