The Suicide Squad: 22 WTF Moments
22. Savant Kills A Bird
The movie begins as it means to go on, opening with vigilante-hacker Savant (Michael Rooker) sat in the Belle Reve prison yard, bouncing a red stress ball off the walls.

Eventually he spots a cute little bird hopping around the yard, and because we can't have nice things in this world, he hurls the ball and immediately hits the bird, killing it.
It sets the tone right from the jump, that this isn't David Ayer's Suicide Squad.
Karma comes back to bite Savant in the ass, though, as when he's one of the several Suicide Squad members killed off during the opening beach raid, we see a very similar-looking bird - a relative, perhaps? - snacking away on his decapitated stump. Beautiful.
