David Ayer Slams Studio Cut of ‘Suicide Squad,’ Praises James Gunn’s New Movie https://t.co/0JWzkCuZyz
I liked it too but it could have been better. Watch the comic con trailer and that was the vibe it was going for originally. WB screwed it all up, they cut up BVS and took 30 minutes off of it which messed up the narrative and flow of that film. Then people hated the "dark tone" so they did reshoots to suicide squad (2016) to make it more like Deadpool/Guardians of the Galaxy type of mix.
I might like this new version but I'm not really a big fan of the Guardians movies, they are too comedic for me to be really invested in it. I'm hopin i'll like this new version and I hope they release the director's cut of the 2016 version too. [Reply]
I'll catch this on HBO Max. I'm pretty selective with what films I see in theaters these days. The glowing reviews are definitely a pleasant surprise though so that is good. Sounds like Warner Bros let James Gunn go buck wild with this one. [Reply]

It does seem like they wouldn't have to put as much money into releasing this director's cut as well. Hopefully the release their director cut. The Snyder cut was great IMO. [Reply]
