Had a lot of fun with this one! Deadshot do be daddy and I can't help but love our girl Killer Frost. It was nice to see Zoom again too, not actively hating and trolling 🤣

I got confused at the start, but next up is TT Judas Contract!

Suicide Squad: Hell to Pay

Another fun and gruesome movie but that is to be expected from Suicide Squad. I almost forgot that that the prison they are usually kept in is Belle Reeve since in Gunn's The Suicide Squad, all the members we get introduced to is in that same prison (which makes sense since that's the same in the comics). Makes me hope some of the characters in this movie (while not connected) already exist in Gunn's DCU, apart from Harley Quinn, which we know she probably does since she's way too popular to not exist. You also got reintroduced to some old characters like Killer Frost although this time they actually give you some backstory on her. Copperhead who I do admit has a better design in this than the Justice League cartoon. And Reverse Flash with this being the first time we see him since Flashpoint and him going for the card ties back into Flashpoint with Thomas Wayne Batman shooting him. Though him disappearing after he got shot by Deadshot seems weird it does make sense since he's a living paradox that can't actually die. I know the characters call him Zoom but I was almost getting confused a bit because there's another speedster whose called Zoom and Reverse Flash is usually called Professor Zoom. You also got to see Vandal Savage and his daughter and her girlfriend Knockout who much like Big Barda is a former Fury from Apokolips, except unlike Barda who became a hero, she became a villain. The Steel Maxum guy is actually an original character for this movie but him mentioning how there is multiple Doctor Fates is something that happens in the comics where multiple people take on the mantle of Fate. That duo Punch and Jewlee that you see in the beginning that have a whole jester get up, they are pretty lesser known villains that I didn't even know but they're apparently villains to Captain Atom. I almost forgot that because this is based on the New 52 comics that Amanda Waller is skinny here though in this they explain why she lost so much weight is cause of her having a terminal illness. But in the New 52, she's not sick, she's just skinny now with zero explanation. I believe Gunn mentioned it on one of his social medias that he's not a fan of skinny Waller and I kind of agree and don't know why that was one of the changes DC made. But then again most of the New 52 is not liked much at all by fans. I also almost forgot that Professor Pyg was in this as well. Same with Silver Banshee. I just remembered that Jimmy Olsen actually dated her once. That Blockbuster guy, while he was just a regular henchman here, he's actually one of Nightwing's major villains in Blüdhaven. The "Get Out of Hell Free" card is apparently a real thing in the comics and does exactly what you think it does. If you have it on you when you die, you bypass Judgement and go straight to Heaven. Personally I think the glowing aura around Bronze Tiger was to show that it definitely worked as even Deadshot was surprised by it. Also with Bronze Tiger, the part where they show him holding his dead wife, the old guy assassin should be somewhat familiar as that is Deathstroke/Slade Wilson when he was still working for the League of Assassins. With Captain Boomerang, I don't know much about besides him being one of the early members of the Suicide Squad alongside Deadshot since the 1980's , he is a main member of a group called The Rogues, which is a bunch of villains of the Flash. I'm interested to see what you think of Teen Titans Judas Contract next and the rest of the DCAMU movies. Speaking of the Teen Titans, you mentioned Raven and her father. Her father Trigon isn't like Lucifer, he's just an all powerful demon, which makes Raven half-demon. Lucifer Morningstar is an actual character in the DC universe though and his look is actually based on David Bowie. Also I'm going to try and share the Injustice cutscenes on discord so you can record it whenever you want to do another misc reaction
