Question of the Week – 5 May 2016

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Captain America: Civil War, DC, Suicide Squad, Warner Bros.

Another in the weekly series designed to encourage debate on thedullwoodexperiment, where readers/followers/first-timers/anyone can air their opinions/views/thoughts on the topic/subject/idea in question. (Apologies for the lack of a Question of the Week last week.)

With the recent release of Captain America: Civil War there has been no end of renewed/continuing criticism of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. So this week’s question is an easy one:

Does anyone believe that Suicide Squad will be the movie to lift DC/Warner Bros. out of the grim, destruction-porn dead end they seem to be embedded in?

The latest trailer for Suicide Squad wouldn’t normally be a candidate for inclusion on thedullwoodexperiment – after all, the first one wasn’t. But someone, somewhere had the inspired idea that this trailer should be accompanied by, and edited to fit the rhythms of, Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody. And in a very strange way, it absolutely, positively works. Even if the movie proves to be lacklustre and disappointing, it will at least have this trailer to remind people of what could have been, and is a fitting testament to the idea that sometimes, trailers are a lot better than the finished product.
