I can fully acknowledge that Suicide Squad was a mess, but I actually really enjoyed it. If I am being honest, even though I know it is objectively a far worse movie, I think I had a better time in Suicide Squad than in Civil War. I am kind of burnt out on the core MCU at this point. I am still really looking forward to GOTG2, but that doesn't really fit into the standard Marvel film template
On a related note, it looks like they are making THREE suicide squad sequels of a sort, Gotham City Sirens starring Harley Quinn, a Deadshot spin-off, and Suicide Squad 2. Even to me that seems like overkill for a film that had the absolute shit kicked out of it by the majority of critics.
