Lesson learned: there can be no good Suicide Squad title unless prefixed by "The".

Fun fact, The Suicide Squad (2021) was a box office flop, whereas Suicide Squad (2016), the only academy award winning DCEU film, was a box office smash hit!

Well, hard for it to succeed at the box office when movie theaters were still closed/avoided in the midst of the pandemic.

It still failed to hit projected box office returns with that factored in!

It's just funny because it's a good movie and the first one won an academy award but is terrible.

And they won it for writing "damaged" on Joker's forehead... at least in part.
