Is This A Trap?

These days I seems to be getting more suspicious of films than I use to, which to be honest is not completely my fault, blame Hollywood sneaking in their ideologies thinking this is what everyone wants, it not. So a Harley Quinn standalone film, I'm not sure I would have gone that route, and that's exactly why the powers that be didn't either, and decided to add in other characters to help bolster the appeal to fans. I'm not so sure this is going to work out for the best in this situation, that's mostly based on how well Suicide Squad performed and this film has even lesser known DC character in the movie.

The other aspect of the up and coming superhero or rather anti-superhero film is that the director at the helm very much a rookie, and as history will confirm, making decisions like that usually does not go down well. The comic book fan base are essentially made up mostly of nerds, and these are the people that go watch these films 3 to 5 times when they come out, they are also the people who buy all the merchandise and memorabilia.

My personal thoughts just from watching the trailer is that it feel like it is lacking dept, what I mean it, there is nothing in the trailer that draws me in, or even peaks my interest. Then there is the ever and overwhelming wamen are just the best ever, and we need more movies with just wamens beating the shit out of evil mens and the patriarchy, because that's where we are now as a society. It's literally in the the movie title, just in case we don't notice it throughout the movie when we go watch it, the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn. This pretty much shows a complete fundamental misunderstanding of the character that is Harley Quinn, from a certain point of view of course. Harley has an obsession with the Joker, and has more to do with the fact that he is an emotionless and psychopath, and this is what ultimately makes her follow suit. This is also a big past of her character, than no matter how horrible Joker treats her, she is psychotically obsessed with him, but this movie seems to throw that right out the door because of wamens empowerment. Which again makes yet another movie feel like the ideology is more important than the story.
I could be completely wrong, but I making guess predictions, we'll see.
