Episode 205 - The DCEU: Suicide Squad (2016)

In this episode of Psyber Conversations, we dive into the chaos of Suicide Squad (2016). From David Ayer’s troubled vision and Warner Brothers’ meddling to the stacked cast of Will Smith, Margot Robbie, Jared Leto, and more, we unpack what worked, what didn’t, and why this film remains one of the most divisive entries in the DCEU.

We discuss Margot Robbie’s breakout as Harley Quinn, Jared Leto’s controversial Joker, El Diablo’s surprising depth, and whether the movie ever had a chance to succeed. Was it a failed attempt at a Guardians of the Galaxy style team up, or does it deserve more credit than critics gave it? Tune in as we debate, critique, and maybe even defend parts of this infamous blockbuster.
