I'm actually surprised by how little I want to see this movie.
Like, I can't point to any one element of the trailers and say "That thing there killed my interest in this movie". There are even some things in the movie that do make me want to watch it; I like Harley's kinda "quirky" sense of humour, and I do like Will Smith.
But there's just something... I don't know. One-note about it all, maybe.
Like, taking a few minutes off from watching it, all I really remember about it is a bunch of meaningless explosions and destructions, constant repetition of the fact that these characters are villains (I got it the first three times, thanks, DC), and Harley's sense of humour. If you asked me to name two people in the trailer, the only reason I'd be able to do it is because I recently read IGN's Top 100 Supervillains list and Deadshot happened to be on there with a memorable picture, and then I read through this thread and saw he was one of the characters in it. I've already forgotten everyone but him and Harley, and I'm like to forget him in the next half an hour too.
There's a sense of energy to the trailer, but it's just this wild mishmash set to a bunch of ultimately meaningless destruction and half-assed character introductions (he shoots people, he kills people, he burns people, wow, thanks for telling me literally anything meaningful about these characters, DC). I'm still not even sure what the gist of the movie is.
It's a pretty stark contrast to the Deadpool trailer. Deadpool took a similar line, taking a virtually unknown presence and making a big feature movie of him. The trailer started off serious, then get more chaotic and more humourous as it went on. Only, Deadpool took care to get you somewhat invested in it by giving you a brief understanding of who Deadpool is and what he's doing. It also had action you could understand, but that might just be personal taste, I guess. I'm not much a one for just watching some dude unloading thousands of bullets.
I dunno. It's like, I watch this trailer, and I just find myself not invested in it at all. Fuck, I'm more enthused about going to watch X-Men: Apocalypse, and I just rewatched X-Men 3: The Last Stand earlier today.
