Some highlights...
A Suicide Squad fan is threatening to sue Warner Bros and DC Comics over the limited screen time given to Jared Leto's Joker.
The Thirty Seconds To Mars frontman previously admitted there are enough deleted Joker scenes to make a full movie – but Reddit user BlackPanther2016 is legal action against the studio, insisting that teasing Joker scenes in trailers which weren't included in the final film amounts to "unjust false advertising."
The movie goer says the cinema denied a request for a refund after claiming they drove 300 miles from Scotland to London and spent £160 on fuel to watch "specific scenes explicitly advertised in TV ads" which never featured. BlackPanther2016 willl file the lawsuit tomorrow (August 11) with help from a "lawyer" brother.
"I told the theatre about this unjust act and said I didn't get what I came here to see, and asked, 'Can I have my money back?' They laughed at me and kicked me out. So I'm now taking this to court.
"I want my refund, the trauma of being embarrassed as I was being kicked out and people laughing at me for wanting my refund, and also the £160 of fuel money I used to drive to London from Scotland."
BlackPanther2016 has also launched a petition, pushing Warner Bros to refund all other movie goers who felt "robbed" after seeing Suicide Squad due to "false advertising."
BlackPanther2016 adds: "Let's stop this nonsense of false bullshittery. Don't let them bribe you with their 'deluxe premium special directors gold extended edition supreme cut'' nonsense. You should get what they advertised as their first theatre showing and what you have paid for based on what they have showed you in their advertisements."
"Bullshittery" is my new favorite word
