Suicide Squad Needed MORE JOKER?


The problem was never the overall time of the character, but the time each one of his scenes had in this movie. Each scene of the Joker should have had more time, more lines, more action and links to connected the different parts of the story, because he only had loose scenes scattered throughout the film...To be continued in here:https://creators.co/@Movi1/4200843

I quite agree with the comment about the whole point of showing the controlling aspect of Joker and Harley's relationship, would lead into Gotham City Sirens.

I can't believe they are choosing to do that storyline with no development on Harley's part coming out of Suicide Squad. She's seems happy and life is good, why on earth is just going to go independant now?

Seems like they will have a lot of ground to cover in order to introduce that story and maybe Joker will play a bigger role in that movie.

Still would have liked to have seen all the deleted scenes though.

I don't think it needed joker much. It was to showcase other villains. We've all seen joker before.

I wish joker was seen a bit more

I strongly suspect a lot of Leto's Joker ended up on the cutting room floor, after all the pre-release publicity he got.

Of course he was terrible in the role, so maybe that has something to do with it, or maybe the editors were just on strong hallucinogens and just did whatever the three-eyed rainbow coyotes told them to do! Which would certainly explain a lot about the finished film...

He was horrible as joker. Not good
