Chapter 999
《The release date of”Suicide Squad” is squeezed into the tail end of the 2016 summer season.
On the second day of its release, various media outlets published reviews, which were as mixed as those of”Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” released in May..
“《”Suicide Squad” is exactly what DC needs most. Not only is it a thoroughly enjoyable movie, it’s also guaranteed to be a commercial success. There is a big gap between DC movies and Marvel movies in terms of beautiful action scenes and humorous tone.”Suicide Squad” breaks through this. The easter eggs in the film keep fans curious, while the action scenes are tense enough to satisfy the audience.”——（《Complex” review)
“《”Suicide Squad” is an adventure with an avant-garde name, an avant-garde plot, and a cast of characters that audiences are unfamiliar with except for DC fans.
It is also the first film in the DC Cinematic Universe directed by someone other than Zack Snyder.
directed movies.
However,”Suicide Squad” has achieved what”Six Zero Seven” failed to do in”Superman: Man of Steel”, which is to promote the development of the entire DC movie universe.
We have reason to believe that this movie will also be the first DC movie to be released.
The most satisfying work in the cinematic universe”——（《Trespass” review)
“Many viewers worried that this superhero movie with a kid-friendly style would be a bit over-the-top, but the film did not do that. Instead, it became a powerful antidote to the dull and lengthy DC superhero blockbusters. The characters of the film are more impressive than the plot. After all, the plot cannot escape the routine of saving the city. But they are villains and thugs, and their world is very interesting and even somewhat meaningful.”——（《TimeoutLondon》review)
“The movie isn’t that bad, at least it has a coherent plot compared to”Batman v Superman”. But it’s not great either. It’s just a cliché, mediocre work about rebellion and redemption.”——（《Washington Post review)
“On the surface, it could have been an antidote to the cliches of superhero movies. But judging from the final result, this is just a similar movie with a relatively high profile. I didn’t see two things. Apart from Harley Quinn’s posing, this movie doesn’t have much to offer.”——（《Entertainment Weekly” review).
On the Internet, the film’s Rotten Tomatoes index is not ideal either, with a freshness rating of only 53%. Among the 77 reviews so far, 41 are fresh (good reviews) and 36 are rotten (bad reviews). This score is not bad compared to other truly bad movies, but it ranks at the bottom among Martin’s movies.
Of course, since it’s just the premiere, more fans haven’t seen the movie yet, so this evaluation is only temporary.
(Zack Snyder cried himself to death. Is that even worse?”Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” has a freshness rating of only 28%.)
The next day.
The film began to be released on a large scale.
A large number of movie fans flocked to the cinema.
And the promotional tour of the main creative staff has also begun.
Three days after the first weekend, Margot Robbie can clearly feel that she is popular. Whether it is Chicago, Miami, or Las Vegas, she can see fans holding posters of herself wherever she goes. Some people even confessed in public.
Liu Yifei is also popular. The Chinese female swordsman shows a sexiness that is completely different from that of Harley Quinn, which also made many viewers’ eyes light up.
“Mom, can you stop following me? It’s so embarrassing.”
“What are you afraid of? Just think of me as your agent.”
“Mom, take a look at the crew. Who brings an agent with them during promotions? The way everyone looks at me is wrong”
“Then just think of me as your assistant. Daughter, mom is doing this for your own good. The world of Hollywood is in chaos.”
Liu Yifei had nothing to say and helplessly winked at Martin who was not far away.
Martin also smiled helplessly and shrugged his shoulders, saying that I had nothing to do.
After returning to the hotel after the day’s promotion, Liu’s mother followed When her daughter entered the room, Martin had no chance to make a move and could only go back to his room.
Mother Liu did a great job of protecting her.
Margot Robbie saw Martin and Liu Yifei looking at each other helplessly before they went back to the house. He couldn’t help but chuckle.
After returning to the room, Martin’s cell phone rang.
When he saw it, it was Leonardo.
“Dude, I want to ask you something.”
“What’s up?”
“You, you haven’t slept with Margot, have you?
Martin smiled,”You dog, tell me, do you regret it?””
“Farke, I do regret it. Leonardo on the other end of the phone said bluntly,”It’s all your fault for making Harley Quinn so sexy and seductive. Seriously, have you ever been with Margot?””
“No”
“real?”The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly became surprised.
“Really, I have no interest in having sex with a woman that my brother has had sex with before.”Martin said angrily.
“Haha, this is a good habit, keep it up. Then I won’t disturb you anymore, bye. After saying that
, Leonardo hung up the phone.
Martin guessed that this guy must have called Margot Robbie, and he was wondering whether he should call Blake.……
…………
In the three days of its first weekend,”Suicide Squad” grossed US$141 million at the box office amid polarizing reviews, breaking the North American box office record for the first weekend of August…. 0
The previous holder of this record was”Guardians of the Galaxy” which grossed $94.3 million in its first weekend.》
《The first-week box office of”Suicide Squad” is second only to”Captain America 3″ and”Batman v Superman” among movies this year, but the investment amount of these two movies is much larger than that of”Suicide Squad”
《”Suicide Squad” not only achieved great success in North America, but as a result of its simultaneous global release, its cumulative box office in 57 regions in other countries also reached US$145 million.
In three days, the global box office total reached US$286.2 million, making it the 18th highest opening weekend in film history.
At the same time, in the new week, the decline of”Suicide Squad” is also within the range expected by Warner and Meyers Pictures, not exceeding 50%, which is much better than the performance of”Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice”
《The performance of”Suicide Squad” also gave Warner and DC, which were suffering after”Batman v Superman”, a reassurance.
“Alas, Martin is still reliable. It is true to say that he is a ‘superhero savior’.”
At a Warner executive meeting, Alan Horn sighed with emotion.
One executive said:”Martin is very powerful, but the asking price is also cruel enough. The ‘Wonder Woman’ behind us’、‘The Flash’s plan, should he be involved?”
“”I don’t think it’s necessary,” said an executive.”The failure of”Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” was not due to the director, but to the screenwriter. There were too many private goods involved. Since”Suicide Squad” has already After finding the right direction for us, then the subsequent scripts should follow this style – for example, in Wonder Woman, we can highlight Gal Gadot’s long legs.”
“It makes sense. There is no problem with Zack Snyder’s directorial quality. Even if Zack is not used, we can find other directors, such as the one who directed”Iron Man 2″. As long as there are no problems with the script, superhero movies are actually just like that. Something happened.
Alan Horn thought for a while and then said:”‘Wonder Woman’ and ‘The Flash’ can be produced without Martin’s intervention, but the ‘Aquaman’ that Martin once wanted to shoot can be kept first, just in case.”……”
Apparently, Alan Horn was scared by”Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” and wanted to have a backup plan.
