This movie is a two character show. Robbie and Leto are gonna be the two to make or break this film. I kinda feel for them two because the shadow Leto has to fill to be as good or better than the previous live action and animated Jokers is about as large as the expectation for Robbie to be the first (no one cared about Birds of Prey) on-screen Harley Quinn. Many people who never read the books are fanboys of her character.
The trailer looks like she miiiight steal the show?

So is the plan to introduce the Joker here and Batfleck in SvB and then build to the two of them facing off at some point down the line? That seems a little backwards to have Batman v Joker III as the main event with Superman v Batman on the undercard.
I can't wait for this to come out, if for no other reason than I am sick to death of the constant "trending" articles on Facebook and "exclusive leaks photos" popping up non stop over the past five months.
I maybe the only one who is not looking forward to this. I guess I'm just spoiled by most of the marvel movies, where what is on screen looks like what is in the comic. I don't agree with the casting, I hate the way Joker looks, why is Joker such a hard guy to put in a film Just look at the 89 Batman Movie and make that Joker. He doesn't need grills, or ink to be a villain The joker is a psychopath who makes bad joke and kills people that's all you need.
Sorry I went on a bit of a rant there, anyway I'm most likely not going to pay to watch this I might watch it if I get a free rental code when it's in Redbox.

I am actually looking forward to this. I think Leto is going to do a well above average job with The Joker.
And I agree with CruelAngel - Robbie and Leto will make or break this film/franchise. It the movie is a hit, it will be because of them.
And yes, I too would pay to watch Viola Davis read the phone book. She is one of the greats.
The only negative I see here is Will Smith. I can't stand him and I have no idea why he agreed to do this movie. I hope his utter lack of acting ability does not ruin this movie. I also hope his screen time is limited.
Life is hilariously cruel.
It ain't the six minutes... it's what happens in that six minutes.

He's certainly put up some clunkers lately with some of the movies he's chosen to do, but "utter lack of acting ability?" The man has been nominated for some Golden Globes and at least one Oscar that I can recall. That has to count for something, no?
Some people just don't like Will Smith's acting the same way some people don't like Tom Cruise's acting. Doesn't matter that they've won Golden Globes or have had Academy Award nominations. Personal taste I guess.

This is a fair point, but what was said in this thread (and I do think this is more than just pure semantics) is that Will Smith utterly lacks acting ability. That is on the verge of being objectively provably false. If Wpob said he just doesn't like Will Smith... well, there's not much of an argument you could make against someone's subjective opinion. But it's pretty indefensible to say he can't act. Not the same thing.
I don't even get the "he's a father" thing. Are all fathers the same? You think Will Smith the father goes through ANYTHING in his life as a mega-rich celebrity father that Chris Gardner had to go through as a broke, homeless, single dad?
But, even with that storyline wrapping up, they hadn't resolved the root cause of the terrorism or where the money came from. Speaking of which, Jon Voight should be back in the picture soon.
