I'll admit, the green band gag made me chuckle.

Prometheus suits, that nice!
Anyway - trailer looked nice, budget is shown. But why this movie have so much hype here? There is nothing very interesting about premise, about people behind it, visuals are only 'ok', trailer is only 'good'... Why so much hype?-

What were the options? There have been zero films released aimed at that PG-13 major demographic since August 5th.
Florence Foster Jenkins - geriatric crowd
Pete's Dragon - kids and families
Sausage Party - hard R comedy
Ben-Hur - Religious epic with even worse reviews
Kubo - kids
War Dogs - rated R and historically poor performing Middle East War category
Hell or High Water - rated R slow burn aimed at adults
Don't Breathe - rated R thriller/horror
Hands of Stone - lol
Mechanic: Resurrection - complete bomb
Southside with You - love story with political slant
The Light Between the Oceans - very dull adult drama
Morgan - might be the biggest bomb of the year except for The Disappointments Room
Sully - geriatirc Oscar bait
The Disappointments Room - horror and huge bomb
When the Bough Breaks - thriller/horror aimed at African-American audience
The Wild Life - kids
Blair Witch - rated R horror
Bridget Jones' Baby - adult themed aimed at older females
Hillsong - documentary
Snowden - rated R adult themed thriller
Not trying to be too argumentative, but I am not seeing a single viable options for the demographic that Suicide Squad is aimed at. Again, this isn't me saying that on a lot of levels the core audience likes the movie, but I think it is a mistake to say the legs are what they are without taking into account the release date. For example, I think if you put Batman vs. Superman in the same release date then it has better legs than it did in late March when it faced a lot more competition over the same time period.
A fairly good point, but I still would add that there are people who enjoy PG-13 tentpoles who also enjoy other categories. I can see a lot of Suicide Squad viewers also having interest in movies like Sausage Party and Don't Breathe (strong appeal to young adults, who play a part in the box office of superhero movies), as well as Pete's Dragon and Kubo (families do go to superhero movies). Were they formidable foes? No. But could they have given a bit of a dent to Suicide Squad's potential performance? I'd say it's likely. And keep in mind that I don't think Suicide Squad has toxic nor phenomenal WOM. I just feel that it's having a simply okay run.

Which means it could be coming today even.
Anto, do you know what time Sony usually releases their trailers? Are there any specific times that they usually release them online?

There are plenty of Letterboxd reviews that are giving it around 3/5 or 3.5/5, so the critical response will probably follow suit.

Eddie Murphy's MR. CHURCH is his 1st film to open in limited release--and it wasn't divine in any way--$407k in 354 venues, $1,150 per.
Will there be a Mr. Church Day?

Likely a stupid question, but is it possible for an actor or actress to be nominated for two different movies in the same category? Because having two doses of Amazing Amy in the Lead Actress category would be phenomenal.
