BB 8/12/16

Good morning Phoenix! How about putting on those rad shades and taking in a movie this weekend? It’s time for Friday Flicks.

Currently in theaters, Suicide Squad.

Plot:
A secret government agency recruits a group of imprisoned supervillains to execute dangerous black ops missions in exchange for clemency, which inevitably leads to chaos.


Trivia:
• The majority of the cast and crew got the tattoo "SKWAD" in honor of this film. The tattoos were even applied by some of the cast members, Margot Robbie and Will Smith.
• The Joker's car, the Jokermobile, is a customized Infiniti G35 Vaydor.
• Jared Leto got so immersed in playing The Joker that he wouldn't break out of character on set even when he wasn't filming. He even sent his fellow cast members "Joker-like" presents: a live rat to Margot Robbie and bullets to Will Smith, a soiled Playboy magazine to Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje and a dead hog, anal beads and used condoms for the whole crew. Scott Eastwood commented that Leto frightened him at times with his behavior, and Smith mentioned that he actually never met the real Leto.
• It has been suggested that because of the dark and tormenting nature of this film, an on-set therapist was hired to keep the cast grounded.
• At 5'9 Jared Leto is the one of the shorter Jokers next to Jack Nicholson, who was 5'7, as Heath Ledger was 6'1 and Cesar Romero was 6'3.

Goofs:
• In the scene where Deadshot is practicing with weapons while still being incarcerated, no one is wearing hearing protection. This is required in any facility where firearms are shot, and it surely should have been enforced in a government-run prison facility of all places.
• The length of Joel Kinnaman's hair as Rick Flagg constantly changes from short to medium revealing that those specific scenes were re-shoots.
• Harley falls a long distance into a deep vat of chemicals, after which the Joker jumps in after her. Somehow he is able to lift her above the surface of the liquid, appearing to be standing on solid ground.
• Jared Leto's real tattoos are visible in a couple of scenes. Most notably the triangle on his forearm is seen through the shirt during the club scene.
• The admiral Waller has dinner with has a name tag on his uniform naming him "MacKensie" but the credits name him "Olsen."

Have a fangtastic day and stay cool my friends! <3 Brock V"""V
