For this Wednesday Super Slop Night, 8PM EST, it’s finally come to this: we’re watching capeshit. First up is The Suicide Squad (2021), James Gunn’s much-better-reviewed sequel to Suicide Squad (2016). As with its predecessor, it follows a twisted team of bad guys who aren’t actually bad guys as they kick some butt. Unlike its predecessor, it is rated R, which means a whole lot of swearing and gore. Many people consider this the best film of the DCEU, which is an exceptionally low bar, but still. Looks fun enough; let’s check it out.
Next up is Megamind (2016), Dreamworks’ tale of a supervillain (voiced by Will Ferrell) who finally succeeds at defeating his square-jawed heroic rival (voiced by Brad Pitt), only to discover that his existence is empty without a good guy to fight. What now? Introspection? Romance? New hobbies? Maybe he could even turn good. A lot of people like this one, and zoomers regard it as a classic of their generation, so we’ll give it a whirl. Director is Tom McGrath, the man who gave us, uhh, Boss Baby (2017). Okay, zoomers, this had better be good.
We’ll start at 8PM EST on Hextube, right here:
