Warner wants to go in a darker direction with all of their film properties? Well they finally picked one that worked when it comes to DC. You don't get much darker than http://www.variety.com/article/VR111800 ... 1&nid=2562

Suicide Squad. Government organization for supervillains. Get busted. Serve your country going on suicide missions and after enough missions you earn release on parole. In a way it's part of how they explain the revolving door on prisons for supervillains everytime they randomly pop in after they've been arrested amazing book when it was first done.

Plus who wouldn't love a movie that focused on classic villains working s a team to kill things even more evil.

That sounds amazing. Who do you think will be part of the lineup of supervillains?

Well Deadshot and Captain Boomerang are totally necessary. As is Rick Flag. other than that though you can rtate out just about anything. But my guess is tat the primary characters will be the team from the Justice League Unlimited episode with Deadshot, Boomerang, Plastique, and Rick Flagg.

That sounds awesome.

Though those aren't exactly well-known villains. Comic Book movies succeed mostly based on recognizability--throwing in a great franchise with unknown characters is pretty damn risky.

Also, aren't these guys "villains"? Like, bad guys? Or are they just "anti-heroes"? Because if I'm gonna go see a movie starring a super-villain, I'm gonna want him to be an evil motherfucker.
