For what it's worth, Gail Simone threw some pretty nice shade at this movie a week or so back. I dunno she seems pretty supportive of it on Twitter at the moment. Maybe she's playing nice now, I don't know. I just remember that "I'm going to write a Watchmen story that has nothing to do with Watchmen but still call it "Watchmen" tweet she put out like right after the BoP poster was revealed.

Looks..interesting. Definitely Harley’s movie. And Margot and Ewan go a long way in making me want to watch it.

Closest Harley's been on any BoP team is the Gotham City Sirens. And that's just because Catwoman and Ivy have been in both.

What even the hell is this movie about?! From what I had gathered from previous reports, they are framing Black Mask with dick pics of that are in a diamond.
Its as stupid as it sounds.
I can't honestly tell if you're joking. If you aren't, this is the worst comic movie ever by default.

Meh. This will be something I end up watching when I can’t sleep. I have a feeling it will help.

I have zero knowledge of the Birds of Prey, and I think Harley Quinn is probably the most overhyped character of my lifetime, so my interest in this is very low. Trailer isn’t terrible and Margot is a real talent, so this is probably something I check out when it makes it to cable/streaming.

Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn character was the worst thing about "Suicide Squad." And that's saying something, because there were countless items on the list of "worst things about 'Suicide Squad.'" But her character was right above "So, wait, what's the plot here?" and "Hold on, does the antagonist have a reason for doing whatever it is that they're doing?".
So needless to say, the only part of this movie I'll be seeing were the two minutes it took me to watch that trailer.

You mean you didn't like the 39 different times when they had something bad happen followed by Harley making some one line joke?

I've seen people throw tantrums that Black Mask didn't have a mask on yet. Because I'm sure he'll look like this the whole movie, that's how superhero films work, alright. Nope, guys who wear masks that are melded onto their faces never, ever have that happen later in the film, and not from the get-go.

Why didnt they just call it "Harley Quinn"?
She's popular enough to carry a movie, and casual fans don't know Birds of Prey. I'm a casual Batman fan and had never heard of them.

I'll check this out. I f'n love Margot Robbie. She was the only bright spot of Suicide Squad IMO.

That's at the tippy-top of my "why?" list for sure. The other one being "If they wanted a Harley kicks ass with another girl movie, why did they not use this as the opportunity to do Thelma & Louise with Harley and Ivy?"

Nope, guys who wear masks that are melded onto their faces never, ever have that happen later in the film, and not from the get-go. To be fair, it's not like any of the other characters looked anything remotely like their comic book counterparts. So Roman Sionis without the mask just seems like more par for the course for costume design choices.
