first 2 episodes (of 7) are out on Max. Watched it today, pretty decent. Its basically animated Suicide Squad with monsters instead of meta-humans. Really small cast list so far, hope it gets a bit bigger.

Its super horny though so don't watch with kids, lol. At least 2 (mild, straight) sex scenes. I like what I've seen so far, its got Gunn's signature style of humor/action/pacing. It reminds me a lot of Peacemaker.

I wasn't super into the show the first episode and I started to wonder if centering the first few episodes around The Bride was really a good idea but the last few mins of episode 2 were pretty good and it starts making sense. Hope it can continue the momentum its got going but that is sort of what Gunn is good at.

Take that MAGA!

movie synergy with Weasel, suicide squad and the worst version of Waller ever created.
turning the commandos into another Suicide squad literally.
marvel humor.

No thanks. good job ruining another set of DC characters.

not sure how i feel about a redemption arc for Weasel, I really liked him as a mysterious absolute scumbag but we'll see I guess. I liked the episode itself, and it let drop the obvious "who is really the bad guy" shoe although I have no idea how we get from where are now to the visions. Flagg is my kind of guy, thinking only with his dick lol

I wonder if some of it is tied to future DC movies since that Waller sequence seemed to hint at a lot of things.

Gunn has openly talked about how this series is DCU canon in his version of the DCU apparently.

I haven't watched any of it and am waiting for the last episode to drop so it's set for binging.

Flagg is going to be on Peacemaker season 2. Played by Grillo.

Nina’s situation is kinda fucked. She is in prison because she is a fish person. That’s it. She’s normal otherwise and not a psycho. So you have a world full of superheroes, including Aquaman, and no one bothers to say “hey, can you release this innocent person?”

Finale spoilers

Then Bride in the finale sets her up to fail because Nina is basically just a normal scientist, so of course Nina dies because she isn’t an assassin. They did show a mummy character at the end that might resurrect Nina if they decide to go that route from the comics

It’s not DC, but imagine a Wolfenstein x GI Robot crossover. They’d be best friends forever lol

yeah i was a bit shocked at the ending, lot of stuff happening which i never expected which is very cool. pretty confused at the villains purpose/arc/plan but whatever, the show is a nice mix of adult humor and action while keeping everything going fast.

look forward to season 2, hope they can get to 10-12 episodes at least though. 7 is way too short.
