For anyone who hasn't had the chance to peep Suicide Squad just yet, the following slice of info might qualify as a spoiler. Despite a year's worth of trailers, teasers, and declarations of method acting prowess, Jared Leto doesn't really get a ton of screen time in the film. That's not only a bummer for Leto, but it's also quite the bummer for Joker and/or Leto fans. Just ask the guy who's apparently threatening to sue because Suicide Squad's distinct lack of Joker left him so damn befuddled. Also, um, mad. Dude seems really mad.
A Reddit user by the digital name of BlackPanther2016, as first reported by Screen Rant, considers movie trailers to be similar to food menus. "They give you a preview of what your [sic] gonna get," the post reads. Fair enough. But what's the main beef here? The Reddit user and his brother, apparently an attorney, are beyond bummed that they drove "300 miles to London" to specifically peep scenes they had seen in the trailer only to later be met with profound disappointment:
"Suicide Squad trailers showcased several SPECIFIC Joker scenes that I had to pay for the whole movie just so that I can go watch those SPECIFIC SCENES that WB/DC had advertised in their trailers and TV spots. These scenes are: When Joker banged his head on his car window, when Joker says, 'let me show you my toys', when Joker punchs [sic] the roof of his car, when Joker drops a bomb with his face all messed up and says, 'BYE BYE!'. Non [sic] of these scenes were in the movie."
Whether this is all a semi-elaborate joke or not remains to be seen, but BlackPanther2016 claims to be kicking off his "court process" on Thursday. This perpetually bummed Suicide Squad viewer wants a full refund, gas, and some sort of additional compensation for the "trauma of being embarrassed" as the theater staff kicked him out as he proceeded to complain to them about false advertising.
Anyway, peep this fan-made Joker and Harley Quinn movie and imagine all that could have been with the gift of an R rating.
