I don't know how to feel about this really. Probably will make my mind in a 2nd trailer. I like the motif of the movie though, spritzy colors and wacky tone. Big downer is theres no Joker in this movie.

You don't watch many movies apparently, which wasn't strictly what I was referring to there is also TV too - I guess you're pretty late on The Boys then, never hear you talk about that show... Feel like parodies of what? Do you even know what parody means? Having jokes does not make something a parody, genius. This is mainly a dc and marvel board but yes the boys is great and its mature rated. Stuff by Ennis can't be watered down Its not just having a few jokes or comedic scenes its to the point were you can't take the movies seriously thats mcu problem. Widow will probably be in the Vein of Johnny English or Austin Powers. Dr Strange 2 will probably be like Scary Movie given how corny the first one was. This is a DC board, the Marvel board is right next door, and you were the first and only one to bring up a Marvel feature on here prior discussion was solely on this DC film. And my comment on superhero content did not restrict itself to just DC and Marvel. Pray tell what jokes in any Marvel Cinematic Universe feature is akin to anything from an Austin Powers or a Scary Movie? Austin Powers and Scary Movie are both beyond over the top without any desire to be grounded in reality and are prone to break the fourth wall, break into musical numbers, etc. their sole purpose is to riff on the genres they are parodying. And no, none of Tony Stark's quips, Star Lord distracting Ronan, 'Tony Stank', or anything that you ever complain about is equal to the humor as seen from an Austin Powers or Scary Movie. Want to know what is? The restaurant scene form Venom is actually closest to that level than any MCU movie.

I’ll be kind of pissed if this movie actually makes money and gets good reviews.

I already addressed that.

She was the worst thing about B:TAS, and she’s one of the worst things to ever happen to DC. I would want nothing more than for anything she’s in to crash and burn horribly. That goes for the James Gunn Suicide Squad movie as well.

Pray tell what jokes in any Marvel Cinematic Universe feature is akin to anything from an Austin Powers or a Scary Movie? Austin Powers and Scary Movie are both beyond over the top without any desire to be grounded in reality and are prone to break the fourth wall, break into musical numbers Dance-off Dance-off noun noun: dance-off; plural noun: dance-offs; noun: danceoff; plural noun: danceoffs a competition, or a round in a competition, in which a number of dancers compete against each other until a winner is declared.
See by sheer definition you prove yourself an intellectually stunted slug, a dance off is a competition, it requires a back and forth display of moves, where in that scene di Ronan respond to Peter? he didn't because it wasn't a dance off, this is just the term and idea morons like yourself put forth to lambast the ending of the film, Peter was trying to distract Ronan he wasn't really challenging him to a dance off, he was purposely making a spectacle of himself to draw attention and confuse Ronan and it worked, and it did the same to everyone else, almost everyone but the other Guardians were focused on Quill which prevented Ronan from destroying the planet and giving Rocket enough time to fix the bazooka thing, it wasn't a parody it wasn't a comedic moment played seriously it was an unexpected and last ditch effort to distract an opponent, which plays into a running theme in the movie that earths music is strange and captivating for alien species, we saw it with the guard at the prison as well as Gamora on Knowhere so Ronan being taken aback by Quill's antics play into that, you are just one of the many people too dumb to notice it, and yes it was also a joke but not one that undermined the movie or turned it into a parody, again idiots such as yourself just claim this because you are too dense to try and figure out a valid criticism of the movie, you dunce.

It was a lame gag that undermined the movie and turned it into a parody. Ronan, who is supposed to be Thanos' right-hand guy and supposed to be a big bad Destroyer, got defeated by a silly Dance-off. That's really lame.

That's really lame. No lame is having to edit out peoples posts to try and pretend you are making a point because you are too much of a dummy to be able to properly compose articulate or even decipherable responses, so you instead cut and paste snippets of responses that you in your inferior level of cognitive awareness believe you can counter, but even in that you fail.

I would want nothing more than for anything she’s in to crash and burn horribly. That goes for the James Gunn Suicide Squad movie as well. If they were going to make a movie about her then it's absolutely vital that the Joker be a central character in it and that their manic power struggle relationship be explored. Suicide Squad hinted at the origin with flashbacks but never gave us a a strong foothold. This Birds of Prey seems to be making Harley into something she's not really, kinda like a female deadpool. But I know if they did give her a faithful realization from the animated series, you would have liberal left-leaning critics dismembering it saying how it's sexist, misogynistic, toxically masculine, (insert empty buzzword).

Harley Quinn has been a female Deadpool for the past decade. She’s even broken the fourth wall on occasion.

That's really lame. Stop acting like you know anything about film and storytelling, because you just don't.

Says the man who thinks Venom is mature and adult, you have no idea of what the words you say actually mean, so therefor please do us all a favour and stop using them you idiot.
It's simple for him: if the movie doesn't have jokes it's mature no matter how retarded it may be. Case in point: Venom
