Yeah, my bad, the 'actual comic' I meant there was New Suicide Squad, which the "tits falling out" cover is not representative of iirc (not that NSS was a bold step forward or anything). But it's one cover in one comic in a vast range of stuff which is basically "Harley's not wearing the one-piece any more" so I'm not sure it makes sense as a "this is what the redesign was about".

NB I am really really not defending basically anything here except maybe the Connor / Palmiotti, one-piece 4 lyfe.

yeah geez protecting the honour of harley by referencing her comic book past is kinda eyebrow raise imo.

Yes, my main point in this thread is that the old design was a model of propriety.

Dunno. Jared Leto has always seemed a little off to me.

I Pith On Your Quip (Old Lunch), Thursday, 14 April 2016 16:05 (eight years ago) link

he tries really hard

μpright mammal (mh), Thursday, 14 April 2016 16:21 (eight years ago) link

Holy crap. I just went to wikipedia to hopefully find an article titled "Jared Leto and What Is His Deal, Anyway" and I had had no idea that he was the guy everybody crushed on from My So Called Life.

this whole thing just screams 'terrible pr campaign' to piggyback off of poor ol dead heath ledger's joker

carthago delenda est (mayor jingleberries), Thursday, 14 April 2016 16:51 (eight years ago) link

I haven't seen a whole lot of details about the gifts. Was the dildo inside of a jack-in-the-box? Were the used condoms part of a squirt flower or something?

how's life, Thursday, 14 April 2016 17:09 (eight years ago) link

I know he's probably a human being and just living out his hopes and desires and taking work that interests him, but I really feel like he has two modes of "making people love Jared Leto"

there's the pretty boy/rock star side with his My So Called Life and music endeavors, and then his "oh wait, I can make people think I'm cool/cerebral" side he went into after a 99/00 run of "edgy" films

I still have no idea why the hell he did that movie where he plays Mark David Chapman

μpright mammal (mh), Thursday, 14 April 2016 17:11 (eight years ago) link

is his band bad, or like, really bad?

Actors, generally speaking, are pretty stupid and highly susceptible to outside influences. That's why they're actors.

μpright mammal (mh), Thursday, 14 April 2016 17:13 (eight years ago) link

I taught a 17 y/o student from Italy a few years back, very smart girl academically, who idolised Leto to an irksome level, to the extent that she'd find a way to twist almost every assignment to being about him. It got boring quickly. I checked out 30 Seconds to Mars on the back of that, they are really not good.

the joke should be over once the kid is eaten. (chap), Thursday, 14 April 2016 17:19 (eight years ago) link

Odds on whether his summer media campaign will be pulling pranks on Fallon/Kimmel vs. "melting down" on same.

reminds me of a recent David Fincher quote, when his daughter told him that her friend Max said Fight Club was his favorite film:
"Don't be friends with Max"

I'll bet there are some Suicide Squad cast members who feel like destroying something beautiful just now.

I Pith On Your Quip (Old Lunch), Thursday, 14 April 2016 17:35 (eight years ago) link

Something so beautiful, it hurts to look at it.

Theres no way they'd get away with Suicide Squad Lego, so they chucked Deadshot and Nu52 Harley into a random set with Batman and some bat pods.

Still, I dig having a Deadshot Minifig:

ulysses, Thursday, 14 April 2016 18:01 (eight years ago) link

no but everyone who buys one of those sets could be one of just 25 lucky winners who will find a golden ticket certifying that their batman minifig passed thru jared leto's digestive system before being put into the box

Factory Entertainment is thrilled to announce from Suicide Squad, Harley Quinn's Good Night Bat! To ensure the accuracy of each piece, WB provided Factory Entertainment's designers with access to the original screen used props from the film, as well as various assets and imagery from the set in order to truly capture what's seen on screen. The Good Night Baseball Bat features the as-seen wording and other fine details, making this SWAT perfect for living out your Harley Quinn role-playing / cosplaying fantasy in a fun and friendly way! To further enhance the collectibles and to add another element of role-play, each Harley Quinn SWAT soft weapon features a series of sounds that play when swung through the air and on impact! SWATs (Soft Weapons and Tactics) capture the fun of stylized fantasy weapons, but executed in soft, safe-for-work-and-play materials, with sounds specifically tailored to each piece and are intended for ages 8 and up.

get your kid a plush bat from the SUICIDE SQUAD movie, what could go wrong

my children will never receive facsimiles of Deadshot's guns

just the real thing, right

μpright mammal (mh), Monday, 18 April 2016 18:31 (eight years ago) link

I'm not trying to get them killed quicker

We live in a world where police killed a teen for cosplaying; in that world, my kids get nothing that even remotely look like weapons.

an unfair but good point

ach Harley Quinn SWAT soft weapon features a series of sounds that play when swung through the air and on impact!

'your kids will be thrilled by the realistic sounds of skull fragments being driven through brain tissue!'

i'm guessing they're more POW and BIFF and WHAM-ETH

not only bad around gunslingers but also bad as encouraging fighting. as a kid i nearly seriously injured a young relative with big novelty boxing gloves. said relative got knocked down with their head very close to a hard edge.

The MPAA obviously agreed, saying the rating was due to “sequences of violence and action throughout, disturbing behavior, and suggestive content and language.” Oh, it’s gonna suggest the hell out of some language and content, letting your mind fill in the blanks of all that awesome violence and language you’re not going to see or hear onscreen. Meanwhile, Deadpool continues to be the highest-grossing R-rated film in history. “Yeah, whatever. F that,” retorts Suicide Squad, because, hey, language.

I'll be so disappointed if the Joker isn't introduced in an extended musical number where he does the futterwacken to "Without Me".

This is the kind of soundtrack that should come with the case pre-scuffed and markdown used CD price stickers on it indicating it already made the rounds of old chains like the Wherehouse before finally ending up in the dusty cardboard box at the charity shop a strip mall church theoretically runs.
