But they simply are not successful. The market has proven that. Higher ups at DC have been sceptical of it from the start and rightfully so as it turned out. You enjoying them and them actually being better are not relative ideas.

And I see nothing wrong with being skeptical of a universe built on one awful film (man of steel) and trailers which present more of the same that it did. Totally unrecognizable and un-enjoyable versions of characters we all know and love.

I was speaking more in terms of the quality of the stories, but I'll give you the financial shortcomings.

There's nothing wrong with skepticism. But there's a point where it gets kind of excessive and, quite frankly, even ridiculous. All we've gotten for Suicide Squad are production photos, cast social media, and two trailers. We don't even know for sure who the film's villain is. You can be skeptical, sure. But a trailer that's set to "Bohemian Rhapsody" isn't really something you can say is devoid of all joy.
