Well, we now know how the Squad will look in their upcoming movie.

  I hate Captain Boomerang's look.  There's no way around it, I hate it.  If that's supposed to be Enchantress to the right of Rick Flag, I'm not overly fond of her look, either.  Killer Croc looks okay, I guess.  Basically a green version of the the Thing from the Tim Story Fantastic Four movies.  Then again, it was either that or motion capture if you want to keep Croc normal human-sized.  Slipknot, I really can't talk about as my only real exposure to him as Wonder Woman and Green Arrow interrogating him in Identity Crisis, but I guess it works.  I don't have any real thoughts on his comic costume either way.

  That said, I do like the other costumes.  Rick Flag's outfit looks pretty good, as though I kind-of expected that.  El Diablo's costume is a damn sight better than his New 52 get-up.  Deadshot looks pretty good and does evoke Deadshot, and Will Smith posted on his Facebook that, yes, Deadshot will indeed wear the mask.  Harley looks pretty good, not that different from her Batman: Arkham City and Injustice Insurgency looks.  Katana is based on her New 52 counterpart, which works; it's more creative that Katana's Beware the Batman look, even in-universe (Seriously, she just dons a domino mask with her normal clothes).

UPDATE: Well, Bruce Timm approves of Harley's movie look.  So, one of Harley's creators gave the outift his blessing.

UPDATE 2: Paul Dini also approves.  So it's official: Harley's creators approve of her outfit in the movie.

I hate to say this but I think DC is going to shoot themselves in the foot with these film efforts. I mean, I don't mind an untested property being brought to the big screen. It certainly worked for Antman, but DC is going way too high-concept with their direction. I mean, Man of Steel was a good film but it wasn't fun, not in the way the MCU films have proven themselves to be. Dawn of Justice looks to be more of the same. And let's be honest, who out there really knows who the Suicide Squad really is...?

I hope I'm wrong because I really want to see more Green Lantern in film but I'm not holding out much hope...
