Peacemaker. That's the setup for his HBO Max series.
Thanks. Was hoping it was the other one I mentioned because I really like Joel Kinnaman in that role

This is basically a remake/redo of the last one because everyone hated the last one. But the producersa/writers/directors were fucking cowards so they didn't completely redo it but kind of kept things they thought were good from the last one.

Fuck hollywood. Lol.

I mean fuck..some of the same actors are still in it. The use of modern music. The film. The cinematography. Lol. Come on.

These movies have gotten out of control.

Sure, ill check in when im done with the movie but lets be honest here.

Did I miss the part where that hallway was full of hallucinogenics that made Harley see flowers all over the place? I thought it was a nice visual, but seemed inorganic?

I also found that to be random and pointless.

Well she's nuts, so I figure she sees everything like that, especially violence.

I'm over that kind of choreographed action though.

They weren't drug-induced hallucinations, it was a visual representation of Harley's inner world. I thought it was brilliant

I wonder how much money The Fratellis and The Decemberists made off of this movie. Must've been a nice payday

But it only existed in that hallway when we spend plenty of time with her perspective

IIRC that sequence is also the only time we see her go on a crazy murdering rampage so it makes sense they'd use that resource then and not every single time she's on camera. It also happens shortly after the potential of domestic bliss with someone who loves her for who she is -- as we know, the one thing she's longed for -- is thrown in the garbage, and then she is tortured for hours. It's catharsis

Yes. It was a couple of rick and Morty episodes sandwiched together. Very enjoyable
