DC flops again: Suicide Squad 34%

[TheramoreIsTheBomb]

The most anticipated movie of the year ...has flopped. Suicide Squad lands at a horribly, embarassingly 34% on rotten tomatoes. Critics are calling it the most disasterous DC movie ever made.

Somewhat expected it to be honest. DC does pretty bad movies, mediocre TV shows, and somewhat enjoyable animation. The only thing I've ever really enjoyed from their universe were some of the comics and video games.

Just my opinion, but I thought it looked absolutely horrible from the trailers. It's amazing how DC can get Flash and Arrow so right on TV but their recent movies are so awful.

[Hisholyness]

Was anyone expecting it to be good? I don't follow super heroes and I thought it looked dumb.

I did see the most recent Avenger movies tho

You can thank WB for terrible DCEU movies.

And it´s currently at a 9.1 on imdb.

Sooo let´s wait a bit.

Following off the trend of anti heroes like deadpool. Problem is, as its always been, marvel comics has always been more down and dirty with its characters and makes them seem like the everyman who happens to have powers, where as DC characters are gods who live like mortal men, even characters like batman.

IMDB are user ratings, not critic. Anyone can go and vote 10 stars and boost the rating simply because they read the comic and think it'll be amazing.

Edit: Jesus people, I'm not saying critic ratings mean more, i'm just saying that the user ratings as of now mean jack shit because it's just a bunch of fans rating based off reading comics and hype.

Because any user can vote on IMDB. Not a trustworthy website

In otherwords, DC is gods among men whereas Marvel is men who obtain the power of the gods (That does include Thor due to the nonsense with Azgardians)

I plan on seeing it so that is bonus for DC in this case as I did not see BvS nor do I ever want to see it. That being said if this ends up actually being bad and/or insulting I may just be done with DC movies period no matter how good they look like they might be.(looking at you suspiciously Wonder Woman movie trailer)

And 'critics' are trustworthy?

[Frogguh]

Know how I know if a movie is good? Whether I like it or not. No one else's opinion impacts whether I like it, so who gives a crap about rotten tomatoes?

[vindicatorx]

And Rotten Tomatoes gave the Ghost busters reboot a 73% and you expect me to trust their ratings? I'll pass on that thanks.

And it -was- a good movie. I doubt you even went to see it yourself.

[Laerrus]

Critics know diddly squat. They missed the mark on Warcraft and Ghostbusters.

Wait and see what REAL fans have to say first.

[Stormdash]

"Flop" or "hit" is measured at the box office, not on rottentomatoes.

[mvaliz]

Nah, it comes down to something simple:

Marvel movies = the fun of the franchise is front and center
DC Movies = The fun is sucked out of the franchise

[Icoblablubb]

RottenTomatos i love when you guys are fixating on these Rate sites .. if u would only watch Movies which are rated good on RottenTomatos i would have watched like 20 Movie my whole life.. and u know everyone has a different taste ..

Still hyped for my midnight showing on Thursday.

Critics have been very hit and miss lately, I enjoyed BvS even though it was flawed, but to hear critics tell it, its literally the worst movie ever made. Similarly I loathed Ghostbusters, and according to critics that makes me a woman hater.
